I suspect Disney are definitely plotting to remake this.


Was playing Infinity 2.0 with my daughter and got a surprise when one of the game tools, a virtual boombox, starting cranking out a blast from my childhood: The main theme from Condorman all beautifully remastered.

Marketing techniques suggest they are sewing seeds relating to this, until recently, all but forgotten film in peoples minds. If they get the buzz they need, I'd say a fancy-shmantsy sequel will follow.

True. There is also a figurine that goes to the Disney Infinity game from Condorman. I’d be curious to see what they do.

Disney are in the groove just now. Whatever they do, I suspect it'll be pretty solid.

if they are smart they will make marvel include condorman in its comicbook universe to create buzz for the character. a comicbook about a comicbook writer that only invents superheros that he can emulate in real life. do it with breaking the fourth wall like deadpool and you will have a comicbook classic creating interest for a movie

I know dude, but I fkn hate all that Marvel sh*te. I've tried to watch a couple of them, but they are just so lame.

jimswarthau7, what figure was it?

reply

Yeah, you're right. It did.

But despite that, it was damn good.

Disney, love 'em or hate 'em, aren't stupid. They know they are sitting on the rights to a decent idea for a film that tanked and was subsequently forgotten. I'm betting you'll hear something more about this in the next couple of years once they've got the first Star Wars under their belt.

Here's what the infinity game toy looks like:
