BREAKING NEWS: Marvel disses Jon Favreau over money!

By El Mayimbe on June 10, 2008

Blasphemy! Marvel Chairman believes IRON MAN 2 can be successful without Jon Favreau!

El Mayimbe here with disturbing news.

You would think with all the drug cartel money that Marvel is making with IRON MAN that they would naturally give a proven filmmaker like Jon Favreau a decent bump in pay...NOT!

According to this report at IESB, Marvel hasn't locked in a deal with Favreau because they're being cheap.  Marvel, are you kidding me?!  How could you not want to give Favreau a bump in pay?

I went to my guys to see if what IESB is reporting is even remotely true and unfortunately it is.  Sanchez is on the money with this one.

I've seen IRON MAN 3x already and it is one of the best comic book origin movies of all time.  Also one of the most critically praised.  All of this happened because of Jon's vision.

I found it a tad bit disturbing that Marvel is moving ahead with their plans for their slate, yet they did so without locking in Favreau first. 

Usually, when a blockbuster opens big like IRON MAN did, they lock down the filmmaker FAST for a sequel.  It's been 5 weeks and Marvel hasn't locked down Favreau for their planned sequel which is bad because there is a lot of work to do on the sequel.  If Marvel wants to have a great sequel, then they have to get cracking now with the writing team, the special effects team and especially...THE DIRECTOR.

Favreau has earned that right.

Stop being cheap Marvel.

Pay Favreau what he wants and deserves which I hear is not much and wouldn't break Marvel.
