      ***** Not necccarially what a lot of people don't know is that to legally be a junior the entirety of the name has to be the same, which would require JR. to appear on the documents like that. So that J could stand for anything like Jack or Johnson but people could still think of him as Nick Fury Jr.
      I know thins because I and my father share first names, and it's been a tradition in the family for awhile, However we do not want any Jr. so the Middle Name is always different.

    I don't care. Nick fury is nick fury black or white.
    Characters like nick, that are more their job then their life before it can change "skin" as much as the author pleases.
    Nick fury could be nickole fury, just as long as she's an ex CIA agent, ex military, with a lost eye, etc, etc, yadda, yadda.
    But nick has to be human.
    Characters that are the mantle more than the persona can do that also.
    And i don't find it confusing.
    It's like changing actors, pretty much like it.

    I think it was the first avenger movie where a discussion of the teserac (spelling) Cap says the blue glow reminds him of old Hydra weapons and fury says "I don't know anything about that". Fury Sr would have definitely known about that. leaning towards fury jr theory.

    I doubt we'll see a Nick Fury snr, In the cinematic universe timeline (and by involvement the Agents of Shield timeline) Fury makes Coulson the new director of Shield so it might be that Marvel is planning to phase Fury out of the spotlight so that when Jackson's contract has ended he will be able to leave without creating a large plothole or an M.Night Shamylan-esque twist which would probably just piss everyone off.

      well on one hand they recently put out with a ww2 movie about nick fury staring bradd pitt as a white Sergent fury.
      on the other hand the 1st captain America movie had a black unnamed Sergent in charge of a unit called the howling commandos which included a fat dude with a mustache and bowler hat named dugan.
      so it could go either way. i wasn't aware they swapped out nick fury in the mainstream universe. personally i think that move seemed a little forced and was just pandering to movie verse fans.

    I was planning a fan-made universe called Earth-3342 and one of the different things was Nick Fury Sr and Jr (some other changes of history in include Wolverine being part of the super soldier project as a DNA template for the serum (due to his strength and the healing factor); Peni Parker being adopted by Aunt May and Uncle Ben before Peter's parents die, with him going to them afterwards; Eddie Brock being female instead, so that way the original concept of Venom carried through, and stuff like that.)

      @44excalibur 9 років тому +2

      +Erick Clemmson There is no 199999. Movies are not supposed to be "alternate universes." You want an alternate universe, read a "What If?" title. Movies are supposed to be an extension of the canonical(in this case, 616) source material. Anyone(including Marvel) who tries that "alternate universe" nonsense is simply making excuses for poor management and mistakes made by Marvel Studios. Remember, this is Hollywood, and Hollywood has a long track record of screwing up comic book adaptations. They don't even have the right to use the "alternate universe" excuse.

      @44excalibur 9 років тому +3

      Erick Clemmson I know all the facts. I know that Marvel likes to call the MCU an alternate universe, but I also know that such a thing is sloppy and irresponsible filmmaking because movies based on previously published material is not supposed to be an "alternate universe," it is supposed to be a faithful adaptation of the source material. Movies that stick to the source material(The Hunger Games, The Lord of the Rings, Sin City) are usually the best adaptations. Movies that stray from the source material(I Am Legend, Fantastic Four) are usually steaming piles of compost. Anyone who uses the "alternate universe" cop-out is again, making excuses for mistakes and mismanagement.
      Just look at the mess that the MCU made with Ant-Man, trying to adapt Edgar Wright's old and incompatible 2004 script that didn't work in the MCU, that only ended in Wright quitting the film, and which resulted in two of the central and essential Avengers characters, Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne, to be omitted from the MCU storyline resulting in the Avengers movies not working as well as they should. Go look up Joss Whedon's original Avengers script and you'll see that he originally had Hank and Janet in the script and was ordered to remove them to accommodate Edgar Wright, and everything became a mess afterwards. Hawkeye and Black Widow had to be awkwardly inserted in their place, resulting in Hawkeye being limited to a zombie for most of the film as Joss had little for his character to do.
      And the Ultron movie was compromised completely, with the story being switched to Tony Stark which created lapses in logic and continuity that resulted in a film that was a letdown compared to the first movie. Again, calling it an "alternate universe" is just making excuses for mistakes and mismanagement on the part of Marvel Studios. Kevin Feige practically admitted the mistake when he finally confessed that the Ant-Man script "just wasn't working" after Wright quit the production. You need to do your research.

      I'm not even going to read your comments. I stopped after you said that it is supposed to be a fraudulent adaption lol. .... Nope. Not even. It's entertainment and how could YOU of all people tell Marvel that they got their OWN stuff wrong.. This will be the end of this conversation on my behalf

      @44excalibur 9 років тому +2

      Erick Clemmson If you don't read my comments then you admit that you don't know the facts. And I CAN tell Marvel that they got their own stuff wrong because Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige even admitted that they got it wrong. Do you not understand English? When Edgar Wright quits the Ant-Man film because he did not intend for his movie to be part of the MCU and Marvel Studios admits that the script "just wasn't working," what part of that do you not understand? And any script that omits two of the central characters from the Avengers is clearly a fraudulent adaptation. Why don't you stop being a mindless slave to Hollywood and start thinking for yourself?

    Race doesn't matter when it fits into the original storyline without causing problem, like when Will Smith was cast in Wild Wild West and it made no goddamn sense and caused huge internal errors, and when the person of a different race is the best person for the part, like Nick and The Kingpin in Daredevil. The Kingpin was the PERFECT casting in an otherwise horrible film and it was a great to see what's his name do the part so well. (RIP, man)
    The problem happens when they switch race or gender for pandering and not to make the whole program work at its best...
    Making the brother Storm black just added more bullshit to an already convoluted mess of a story... Making both siblings black would have worked... making the prof black would have worked... making Grimm or whatever the thing's name is black would have worked... but adding a whole adoption subplot just made a bigger mess.
    You should have a sound reason for your choices and Samuel L. Jackson was the best man for the part. Period. No pandering or PC bullshit, just the best casting choice possible.

    • @itayeldad3317
      @itayeldad3317 8 років тому

      The stupid thing is that you don't need the adoption subplot. If one parent is black and the other is white than their kid will be born either black or white.
      Its not unrealistic

  • @TheStriderSyd
    @TheStriderSyd 10 років тому +9

    Personally, I've always liked white NickFury over black NickFury for 2 reasons.
    1st is because white NickFury was just the version I happened to grow up with.
    2nd was that while black NickFury seemed to have been created as a cool "badass" (which he was),
    white NickFury was always really more of a stoic "hardass".
    A little less cool I suppose, but I always felt it was personality quirk
    that was also a little less juvenile and more......authoritative.
    I have not read the "OriginalSin" storyline yet, but I have flipped through a few issues.
    And I really get the feeling that this series was written for the sole purpose
    of just killing off white NickFury and replacing him with black NickFury in the 616 universe.
    Why? Well as you mentioned at the beginning of this video, newcomers to the characters
    have probably been wondering about this whole....thing.
    I'd say that all this was done just so that there would no longer be any question
    of a black/white NickFury anymore in any media from here on out.
    It's all fun.

  • @Popesize
    @Popesize 7 років тому

    Interesting theory about Sam L Jackson as Fury Jr. There have been speculations about "The man on the wall" in season five of AoS. If so, a cool cameo would be Hasselhoff in a spacesuit. But i guess that would be over the head for some of the viewers and comic fans would probably go bananas

    in a Deadpool comic way before Origins came to the big screen, someone asked Deadpool why he wears the mask and he said, "if you looked like Ryan Reynolds mixed with a Sharpay, you would wear a mask too". I think they do this kind of thing on purpose to get an actor that they want in the mindset to be playing a character.

    Okay listen here.. this is only a shameless promotion by Marvel to get readers to identify with the movie versions. I can't tell you how much I hate this. The Original Sin storyline was fine and all but they can't simply discard the original Nick Fury for a Samuel L. Jackson lookalike just because he's in the movies. What's next.. changing the Kingpin to look more like the actor in Dare Devil?

    • @ThatGuyAgen
      @ThatGuyAgen 9 років тому +2

      Erick726 You must admit though that it would be hard to cast someone who actually looked like kingpin and would do him justice fully. But the daredevil series kingpin is still good.

    • @Erick726
      @Erick726 9 років тому +4

      All an actor needs to play the Kingpin properly is the right voice and face and then a little Austin Powers makeup.

    • @ThatGuyAgen
      @ThatGuyAgen 9 років тому +8

      And the version in daredevil didn't have a good voice or face for it? I thought he did personally. I was talking more about how it's hard to find someone with 300 pounds of muscle for the role.

    • @Erick726
      @Erick726 9 років тому +2

      ThatGuyAgen The movie version? No.. no he didn't. First of all he didn't look like Kingpin at all. Also his voice was far from intelligent enough to pull it off.

    • @ThatGuyAgen
