In a Battle of the Anonymous Sources, Ain’t It Cool News is reporting that Latino Review‘s report from earlier this month that Marvel would be taking a trip to Planet Hulk for their standalone Hulk movie is “1,000% inaccurate.”
1000%. No wiggle-room there. So tell us, AICN. Why can’t Marvel utilize the Planet Hulk storyline, where the Hulkinator ends up on another planet and takes over?

Take all this in with one skeptical eye, but rumors are flying wildly over the nearly-finished sets of Marvel’s Thor: The Dark World. Normally, we don’t hold with the sort of outlandish, unsupported rumors that come with superhero movie territory, but we can’t resist them if they’re just weird enough – or wish-fulfilling enough – to be interesting. And boy, is this one interesting. Hit the jump for wild, unabashed speculation, news about that Phase 1 box set, and some more set photos!

Television-to-movie transitions are often very hit or miss. Sometimes it can go extraordinarily well, as was the case with The Muppets movie, and sometimes it can go horribly, horribly wrong, as distraught Avatar: The Last Airbender fans are quick to point out. As a result, fans are often understandably split over the issue of filmic reboots — is it worth potentially sullying the source material? If Bloody Disgusting’s Mr. Disgusting is correct about burgeoning rumors of a feature film adaptation of AMC’s The Walking Dead, this timeless debate may once again ignite flamewars in comment sections across the Internet.

Hey, remember that time before The Avengers opened, and we all got super excited about it opening, and then it opened and made a billion dollars? Good times, right? Well, Marvel has been stroking their long, pointy beard and thinking, “Hey, what if we bring back those glory days of early last month and release the director’s cut of The Avengers in theaters and make another billion dollars?” It’s not anywhere near official, but apparently, there are rumblings of such a thing taking place.

We at The Mary Sue generally don’t cover stories about gossip and celebrities. No, we cover the stories, the storytellers, the artists, the creative minds of our generation and those of generations past. But this rumor about Angelina Jolie beng considered to direct a movie adaptation of the glorious Twilight fanfic smutfest Fifty Shades of Grey is hilarious. I mean, we know who Angelina Jolie is, right? The lady who made her directorial debut in a movie about the Bosnian war that was filmed in Bosnian and Serbo-Croatian, who generally spends her personal time in treehouses around the globe bringing the world’s attention to all the disasters we’ve been ignoring … yeah, that lady is probably not going to direct a BDSM movie. But let’s make fun of the people who think she might!

There are some rumors going around that Christopher Eccleston, known for his stage and film here and across the pond, but mostly for his role as the Ninth Doctor on Doctor Who, might be joining the cast of HBO‘s Game of Thrones in its second season. Why it took someone so long to think of this we’ll never know. But if it does happen, the world will find out what a real geek fangasm sounds like. Let’s speculate on who he could be playing, shall we?

We have to look at a lot of rumors every day, and decide whether they’re worth a post. Sometimes, things are so awesome that simply thinking about them, whether or not they look like they’re true, is fun. Sometimes things are so obviously false, and, even if they were true, meaningless, that you pass it up. This one… this one is just ever so slightly more fun than it is possibly false.
It could also be considered a huge TDKR spoiler, so journey on of your own free will. If you don’t want to be spoiled, then just contemplate the above picture, which we found by googling “batman wat.”
