ITT: STUFF THAT HAPPENED

>balding

Supercage would have had a luscious wig of hair, bro.

Was that ever even a thing that was going to happen?

>Superwop
Not even the Silver Age was this absurd.

Oh yeah, see they did costume tests and everything.

>SPIDER-MAN'S A MENACE!
>no no that's ignorant

... you know he could pull it off

Imagian Marvel being pedo propaganda for the last 30 years

I want to die.

Someone do a good greentext of how that movie would've been

I'm too lazy and incompetent, and an absolute sack of useless crap that hasn't done anything productive in over a week to do it myself

TCH-amooon-EEEEH HEEH HEEEE!

I have the "what it 90's Tim Burton directed Spider-Man" greentext. Will that do?

Jim Lee was also in talks to become the majority shareholder of Marvel after their bankruptcy. No one's confirmed exactly why the deal fell through.

>luscious
That wig looks more 'trailer park meth head'

I thought it was bad photoshop at first

Yep. It's one of the most notorious unproduced cape movies, and one of the ones that came closest to actually being made, they had a full cast lined up and everything.

>Courtney Cox as Lois Lane.

>John Mahoney as Perry White.
>Tim Allen as Lex Luthor.
>Jim Carrey as Brainiac.

>Directed by Tim Burton.

>>Tim Allen as Lex Luthor.
auuuuuuuuuwuuuaaaa?

That list reads like fucking Mad Libs.

A younger John Mahoney (and, you know, still alive John Mahoney, these days) I could actually see. The rest of that is lunacy.

They were probably envisioning a more over the top Hackman-esque Luthor again, and at the time Allen was legitimately one of the most bankable faces in Hollywood.

"Superman needs to fight a giant spider in the third act."

I would've loved a 90s Tim Burton Superman movie

that list reads like a shitpost

Lyle Waggoner & Peter Deyell were almost the Batman and Robin of the 1966 TV show.

It's literally just a list of actors that were popular in the early 90s.

I now really want the movie to be one where Lex and the gorrila guy swap bodies and its just tim allen grunting

I assure you, that was really the plan.

Do any of them fit a part or was it a random grab of 'people like these goons right now so fuck it'?

Bingo. Both Luthor and Brainiac are extremely comedic in the script, and they were supposed to merge into a bickering, two-headed cyborg named "Lexiac".

When was SuperCage supposed to be made?

That is absolutely fucking retarded.

Bit of both.

Cage fit the moody, tortured Superman that they were going for.

Cox is a pretty good fit for Lois.

They wanted an urban, wisecracking Jimmy Olsen, and that's Chris Rock's schtick to a T.

Mahoney is a pretty solid Perry White.

Luthor and Brainiac were both supposed to be scenery-chewing, over-the-top villains like said, and Allen and Carrey were both extremely bankable at the time.

1998.

It came so close to being made that they actually had teaser posters like this up in movie theaters at the time.

I may actually remember seeing posters like that but I can't tell if I'm really remembering or my mind is just flubbing. I was like 12 at the time.

If they were going for that take on Supes, it seems the over the top stuff with the villains would feel incongruous unless the script was pretty deftly handled.
