And so it begins. There are only three months left until Bloodshot filming takes off. Hopefully we'll hear news on the Archer & Armstrong movie and Shadowman next. Hopefully they'll be under the same roof, and can interact freely.

Now if we can just get an official announcement from Valiant/DMG to release the hand break and let the wheels start rolling.

Already posted about but hey - NERD BOSS is hands-on for the FIRST VALIANT MOVIE EVER!!!!!!!

*SQUEE*, am I the only one -and I never talked to D-man in RL, only text - that feels really super-happy for him, despite you know... the whole damn DMG thing?
He was once a uber fan as a kid, went to college to get into movies, ressurects an entire universe of comic book characters of which he was said uber fan, and then - full circle - gets to be a producer for the very first Valiant movie with those characters.

Dino- AND I REALLY DO MEAN THIS - You Rule, Sir.

I don’t mean to be a downer, but being listed as a producer doesn’t necessarily mean you have any input. Stan Lee is listed as a producer in just about every Marvel movie. I hope that’s not the case here, but given the recent status of Dino and DMG/VEI I doubt it.

Elveen, paradise, and betterthanezra all say Dinesh is working with Sony, so your worry might apply... except that it doesn't.

I think that this is a win for Valiant/Sony. We get an established action movie star in the role of Bloodshot. There will be people going to see it just because Vin is in it.

Maybe Dino will be the architect of the Valiant Cinematic Universe the way Kevin Feige is the architect of the marvel cinematic universe.

Still not that thrilled about Vin Diesel in the role. I reckon some great big, young, square-jawed all-American wrestler would have been a better bet in terms of visual, and would have also drawn in a portion of the MASSIVE WWE crowd... :twocents:

So awesome, I've had a hard time grasping that this movie is actually going to happen. Vin is the man. I can't wait to hear what he thinks of Valiant and Bloodshot. When he's passionate about something it's pretty awesome and it should turn a lot of people towards the comics. Still need to watch Fast8...still taking up space on DVR...
