Dacap posted:So nobody's really mentioned T.I. being cast in Ant-Man because John Slattery returning kinda dominated the story. They haven't said who he's playing but considering Slattery was 70's era Howard Stark in Iron Man 2 I'm wondering if he might be a young Nick Fury? He's 33 and Jackson is 65 so he's within the range to play him at that time. Wasn't Wood Harris cast too? He should be a young Nick Fury.

Deadpool posted:Well you see Marvel has failed because they didn't make a movie with a female lead because... well because. Let's forget the fact they greenlit two television series with female leads. But that doesn't count for some reason. It's incredibly lame that they've made a bajillion movies starring white, male protagonists. With two more on the way! And you're being pretty generous to Agents of SHIELD by not counting Coulson as its lead.

JT Smiley posted:A bunch of idiots to who? Marvel studios has been consistently killing it year after year. I don't think they're too worried about a few people saying mean words about them on the internet. No one's saying they're not making a lot of money. That's obvious. The fact that they have a huge platform, a huge selection of characters to choose from and a proven audience and they're still not doing a movie with a female lead is really lame. And they especially look like a bunch of idiots when they give dumb answers to why they're not doing it.

Waterhaul posted:The Marvel have a plan excuse is also dumb I agree with your whole post, but especially this. The "Marvel has a plan" excuse doesn't hold water. I don't care that they have stuff planned out until 2028 or whatever, it just proves that they've always been gun-shy about a movie starring a woman or a person of colour. Like, weren't there rumbling of a Black Panther movie coming out post-Avengers 2? Instead all we're hearing about the white-as-hell lineup of possible Dr. Strange actors. EDIT: Obviously Fox and Sony and the WB deserve to take hits on this too, but when Marvel has the exact right conditions to actually do something about the problem--and when Feige talks a load of poo poo about it--it becomes especially egregious for them.

Boogaleeboo posted:Why should I care about that, it's words on a page. Everything they actually release is generic as poo poo. Why do I care about a pedigree that to date has produced nothing in this particular film? All that speaks to is potential. There's a possibility those people could produce something amazing, but what we've seen so far isn't. From the "Not Interstellar, no really" trailer to these pictures it's kind of blah. Maybe there's an amazing movie coming, but they've certainly yet to show anything amazing. Well there's your problem. The trailer was actually really good.

Boogaleeboo posted:It's just that the Fantastic Four rights also tie up a shitload of cool concepts that could fit into a million films, so if all I'm going to get out of this is "A nice way to spend 2 hours", I'd rather it fail miserably and open those ideas up to the company that'll make nine films a year rather than company that'll make one every few years. At least that way I'll get more generically entertaining films on balance. Okay, fair enough. I mean this is insane to me, but fair enough.

James MacAvoy is the same age and he's the elder of the team. Speaking of, is Channing Tatum in the next one? I know he's doing the solo Gambit movie, but are they putting him in this one first?

That's all true. I'm not really worried about his interpretation of the Joker, I just don't really like Leto and I think a David Ayer Suicide Squad sounds amazing without even being any Joker. So, yeah, hopefully there isn't much of him anyway.

Semper Fudge posted:Grimdark or whimsical fun, make good movies it doesn't loving matter. My point is that Green Lantern trying to be exactly like Marvels brand of adventurous fun didn't keep it from being one of the shittiest superhero movies of the last decade. Exactly, let them do their own thing. I don't want them all to be like Marvel movies. Besides, they only work like half the time anyway. Let FF, and X-Men and the DC movies do whatever they want.

Pretty much my thoughts on the film. It's a real bummer to see the more interesting takes on Iron Man and Cap from their individual movies be completely abandoned in the Avengers movies. I really liked Paul Bettany, so I found Vision pretty cool.

mind the walrus posted:God-loving-dammit I've noticed Whedon loves to do this with the characters that aren't his "project" in a particular story, and his writing of Cap--barring a few moments--was one of my least favorite parts of the first Avengers movie. How bad is it? Give it to me straight. well, there's a terrible running joke involving him. He's written as well as he was in Avengers 1--not very. He has a couple good scenes, I guess, but it's almost like a completely different character from Cap 1 and 2. For the few seconds he's on screen with Anthony Mackie their natural charisma and repartee from Winter Soldier kinda shines through but it's really just a tease.

It's not like he suddenly turns into Ultimate Cap and rants about cheese-eating surrrender-monkies or anything He's very much the Cap from the Avengers movie. I just don't like that one. I really like the one from his solo movies, so it really sticks out for me.

Waterhaul posted:Age of Ultron: Nick Fury never retired, he's just been doing the same old same old and shows up with an eye batch lurking in the shadows saying how he knows the bad guys exact plan and knows everything and alludes to A BIG BAD GUY COMING, later on when poo poo hits the fans he appears with a helicarrier and SHIELD army from... somewhere???... this is never really expanded on. Captain America is all gently caress yeah here's SHIELD to save the day. He restarts the Avengers Initiative with Fury and just...decides to continue doing what they were doing pre-Avengers 1 for some reason. He'll pick up on finding his best friend at some point. It's super weird the way they treat the events of Winter Soldier--which, up until AoU had probably the biggest effect on the MCU--within the movie. There's Falcon just kinda brushing aside Winter Soldier's ending setup in one line. There's Fury being basically back and active after going Ronin or whatever at the end of WS. There's that lame "This is what SHIELD's supposed to be" line, referencing and kinda undermining WS in general. Just very odd.
