Movie rights were bought by Tom DeSanto in 2007 and nothing more has been heard. Most likely he bought it to remove any possible competition for the XMen movies.

Is it me or does Melissa look a LOT like Zwill today? 
@ Purgatorio
>.> well.. sorta what Zombieman said. he grabbed the rights to make a movie and tv show franchise for CoH back in 2007. as he'd already left after X2, its not to prevent competition since that was in 2003 and he wasn't involved with marvel after that.
He's been involved with several started comic book related series though, including a teen titans movie that got cancelled.
o.o honestly, I thought the whole thing was dead since its 2012 now (the reported release target) and we haven't seen so much as a teaser.
IMDB still has it listed though... ^^ probably just a coincidence though and WW means something else. probably.
o.o linkie-o-doom!

If I remember correctly it was in the Comics section of the forums and it was a good 2 years ago (or more?). |

Basically I think all that happened was that NcSoft (?) signed off the rights (?) to allow a movie/script to be done.
I think that was all that was done....
Edit:
Curses, Zombie Man and Sleepy Kitty beat me to the punch...but with more info!

Just in time for St. Patricks Day, there is a Leprechaun pet that follows you about spreading the luck of the Irish, a rainbow, a few four-leaf clovers, and a nice buff. But Im sure all you Masterminds are just waiting on the Beast Mastery Power Set, which will include the ability to master the wolves of the wild to enforce your bidding. Finally, we round out the month with the final chapter of the Signature Story Arc in the Who Will Die series. With so many twists and turns so far, what could possibly be left to reveal? Youll see. |
Wh-what about Staff Fighting?

Does it mean Staff Fighting is going back into the oven? Or will it release alongside 22?

FUN FACT: That burst of light when you level up is actually the effectiveness escaping from your enhancements all at once.
Staff is ready and has been so on BETA for a bit. I hate that it is not already out.
The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.
Yeah I wouldn't be surprised to see Staff hit with I22 as an added surprise, I kind of get the feeling they either thought testing on it would take longer or they'd have I22 out sooner.
Please tell me staff fighting is coming out this month...
Well, to be fair, it actually -is- in I22. A lot of the new Tsoo use it.
So when is I23 arriving?

After I22. Before I24. Hopefully before I23.5 but don't count your chickens before they hatch.

No, in the comedy genre that was "Better Off Dead." But "Death Becomes Her" was a good and really funny movie. Must see if you haven't yet.
I add my cries to those before me who fell to despair because this letter had no mention of staff fighting for what looks like 5 weeks. Please tell us this is some mistake!
