  1. this new spawn movie would need a more dark mode this time, less cheap FX, more story, more character background, make it interesting, no Michael Bays Shit!

  2. Brendon says:

  3. agirlyman says:

  4. Evil Erik says:

    In the immortal words of Vader Noooooooooooo … to Mr Fox as Spawn

  5. Malpaso says:

    Chobot is the shizzzzzz

  6. wald says:

    As long as Terry is actually played by a black actor, it will already be better

    • Jim says:

      Isn’t that racist? Why couldn’t a white or Asian actor play spawn? I know in the comics he is black, but aren’t they getting a black guy to play Ben Grimm in the new Fantastic Four movie when in the comics he is white?

      • Vj says:

        No Jim that isn’t “racist” – racism is when one race oppresses other races they deem inferior because of their race based on elements of bigotry  and prejudice. 

        And no, it’s Johnny Storm being portrayed by a black actor; but that’s all Fox trying a shock buzz tactic (as race-bending or gender-bending) to draw buzz to a FF4 movie that Marvel does NOT support.

        Heck even most black fans don’t support that idea.

  7. Chris says:

    The Michael Jai White Spawn was great. Attaching a big star to it just for their name would be terrible, especially Jamie Fox. If they aren’t going to use M.J.W. again then it should be someone like Djimon Hounsou, Jimmy Jean-Louis, or Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje.

  8. Rae says:

    I actually like Michael Jai White, plus he has the martial art skills to play the warrior.

  9. Troy says:

    It needs Johnny legs tho.

  10. Brian says:

    NO JAMIE FOX!!!!
