Is there no chance Marvel could get him to direct it?

I think there may be a chance that they'll talk to him but I suspect they've been anticipating for this and may well have begun a scripting process and a shortlist of directors.

Considering they don't make good comic book movies, i can live with it.

I'll give you that. Marvel probably will make sure that the movie has nothing but the best everything but I still think Carnahan could have made a good movie.

There is still hope.

well i certainly enjoyed the second ghost rider movie,

but yeah with some property being returned to marvel i sense some possible change in the force

Agree on that one...I loved the second GhostRider movie. I also think Marvel always takes more pride in making better movies.

I haven't yet seen all of the latest Ghost Rider but I liked what I saw.

dream on

maybe spiderman will make a cameo

but xmen hell no theres hundreds of xmen alone fox have winner there they will never give up xmen or lend the characters they hate disney lol

im surprised fox did not shoot some crap and put it in the vault to keep daredevil they lose kinpin as well hopefully disney can lend him to sony for for future spiderman movies in exchange spidey show up in advengers

Sorry, Columbia/Sony did Ghost Rider...so, fail there.

On the other hand, Fox has done well by the X-Men franchise. And if First Class is any indication, Fox is looking to handle these things more seriously now. I think what they had in the works for Daredevil could have been good.

Now, toss it back over to Marvel and I have a feeling it's going to get lost in the shuffle and not tended to properly. They're too focused on the Avengers plan over there. I'm doubting we see Daredevil in The Avengers. Even if we did, it would be in Phase 3 at the earliest.

But think about it, clearly Marvel doesn't have much of a desire to work on the Daredevil property. Afterall, they were offering Fox the ability to keep the Daredevil property in exchange for Silver Surfer and whatnot. That indicates to me that they have no real desire to do anything with the property. So for all we know they're just gonna toss it in the pile and let it sit there for years before trying anything with it (like I said, they have their hands full with too much stuff anyways, ie Avengers).

Not to mention, I don't want Disney getting control of Daredevil anyways. They'll water him down. And if it happens like so many fans want it to (Daredevil get involved in the Avengers plan), then Disney does oversee that and they will tone down the character. Rather, Daredevil needs to take the type of turn that Nolan took with Batman. At this point, if the rights revert, the best bet is for Marvel to toss the character down to Marvel Knights and let them do something with it rather than trying to fit the character into their big Marvel Universe plan they have going on.

Wasn't SS for DD deal a fake?

Not that I know of it wasn't fake. The only "retraction" I know of was that it was kinda considered a done deal that Fox would give up Silver Surfer and Galactus to keep Daredevil. Sites were reporting it as if Fox was going to take the deal. However, it was later retracted that Fox wasn't biting and definitely had intentions to just let the Daredevil rights revert back and keep Silver Surfer and Galactus.
