Out with the old and in with the… old again?
In what's shaping up to be an epic day for "X-Men" movie news, it now appears that Matthew Vaughn has tapped out of directing his planned "X-Men: First Class" sequel.

You wanna see a friggin' "Goon" movie? Then you better be ready to friggin' pay! Blur Studios has launched a Kickstarter campaign to get funding for their long awaited adaptation of Eric Powell's Dark Horse series, and our friends at MTV Geek have a big, long interview with the team's Tim Miller and Jeff Fowler all about their plans.
"The same reason it makes a great comic book is the same reason it would make a great film," Fowler tells MTV Geek. "There's nothing out there like it. Eric's world doesn't have any kind of parallel in comics or film."

Mark Millar is a man who knows what he wants — and when it comes to casting the adaptation of his and Leinil Yu's comic book series "Supercrooks," Millar wants a hangover.
The "Kick-Ass" creator posted a message on his blog today stumping for Bradley Cooper to play the lead role in a movie based on "Supercrooks," which tells the tale of a group of super-villains pulling off one last great heist.
"I am literally calling up his guys tomorrow and want to secure him as Johnny Bolt." writes Millar. "It's about TIME he did a super-movie and having him as a likeable super-villain in a super-heist flick sounds about perfect."

"Marvel's The Avengers" made a bit of a monster out of the God of Mischief, but that hasn't stopped fans across the world from signing up as devoted members of Loki's army. Tom Hiddleston did masterful work with the character opposite Earth's mightiest heroes, and he'll continue his devious ways in "Thor: The Dark World."
But the movies aren't the only place where Loki currently thrives, and Hiddleston would be the first to point that out.
Kieron Gillen is the writer of "Journey into Mystery," the Marvel Comics series chronicling the adventures of Kid Loki, a globally adored character. Robot 6 has discovered that Hiddleston is one of Kid Loki's biggest fans, as the actor made his praise known in the letters column for the final issue of Gillen's run on "Journey."

Stop calling "The Wolverine" a prequel; it's anything but.
Despite earlier thinking, Hugh Jackman's second solo outing as Logan isn't a sequel to "X-Men Origins" and a prequel to everything else; his Japanese journey takes place after the events of "X-Men: The Last Stand," director James Mangold has revealed, positioning "The Wolverine" as the most current moment in "X-Men" cinematic continuity.
