Zubis said: Given that more and more franchises are being adapted, that will never happen as it severely limits their career options. Jessica Alba did Sin City after Fantastic Four. Scarlett Johansson and Samuel L. Jackson did Marvel movies after The Spirit. Jon Favreau did Iron Man after Daredevil. Michael Clarke Duncan did Sin City after Daredevil. Natalie Portman did Thor after V for Vendetta. Tommy Lee Jones did Captain America after Batman Forever. In many cases their second movie is far better than their first movie. I don't see why they shouldn't be given that opportunity.

Lexx said: Daredevil is Marvel. Batman is DC. No universal inconsistency. Besides, I think that's a dumb argument to begin with. We would never have had Chris Evans as Cap since he already played the Human Torch in the Fantastic Four movies.
