Copy and paste move

The new Kevin Feige quote

This just seems like a typical non-answer from someone trying to dodge a question. I don't think it really enhances anyone's understanding of the film's development, or adds anything to the article. It seems to me like it's enough to note that EW reported that the character will be in the film, and then if they happen to be written out of a later draft we can note that then. But I don't think a "maybe, maybe not, things change!" quote really belongs. -Fandraltastic (talk) 17:55, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

I see your point. It is already stated the its a draft, and by definition drafts can change.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 18:44, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Okay, I have removed it. -Fandraltastic (talk) 21:16, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Quicksilver

Is it worth noting at all that Quicksilver has just been announced to appear in X-Men: Days of Future Past? Only reason I ask is because of the whole character rights situation, as Fox and Marvel Studios can both use the character, but Marvel can only use it without alluding to "mutants". It has been mentioned in sources about the predicament and what it would mean now in regards to Avengers 2 as it will be released after DoFP. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:54, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

I think so, once we know more about what this means for Avengers 2.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 21:23, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

It doesn't mean anything for Avengers, Fox owns the rights to Quicksilver, Marvel owns the rights to Pietro Maximoff, neither can refer to him by the other name. They were saying this back before The Avengers even began production. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 21:25, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

It's my understanding that they both own the rights to both names, but that they each can only reference certain aspects of the character's history. It is probably worth mentioning, but only when we have reliable sources indicating the specifics of how this influences his role in this film. -Fandraltastic (talk) 21:30, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

We can wait until there is concrete information about how this actually affects the portrayal of Quicksilver in this movie, because right now we can only speculate or surmise what they will do. Spidey104 23:58, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

My understanding was similar to Fandraltastic's: that Marvel was allowed to use the character as long as they didn't reference Magneto or that he was a "mutant". That's why I brought it up. But as everyone is saying, we will have to wait until more info is known for Avengers 2 obviously, but if both studios are going to use the character, it will be interesting to see how they approach this so the general public does not get confused. Just wanted to get the situation out there. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 00:03, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

Minor update: It appears Joss plans to continue on with Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 05:55, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

Saoirse Ronan

As stated in the sources, this appears only to be rumor at this point. Unfortunately, these types of films are prone to rumor and speculation. Some pick up traction in the press and a few are even addressed by those involved. However, I do not think it is appropriate to include them.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 06:04, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

Agree. If we did include this rumor, then we are essentially saying, let's allow all rumors on to the page. If she is eventually brought on for the role, we can add a bit on how she was widely considered for the part before getting it, if necessary. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:18, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

I had placed this information in the article figuring that Ronan's statement regarding the rumors lent some level of credence to them. That was a bit of a fine line and upon consideration, one that should have required more patience on my part for a formal casting announcement. Chalk it up to over-enthusiasm for seeing a favorite character finally appearing in a live action film. Mea culpa. Hopefully by the time of the San Diego Comic-Con International there will be official word on the role. Mtminchi08 (talk) 01:44, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
