I liked Will Smith in SS. He's doing more of "Will Smith as an assassin who doesn't miss" than just playing Deadshot, but that's ok for the movie.

I liked Smith too. I actually thought SS had a solid cast, just a poo poo as hell script (was there even a script). Like I am sure Gunn and a good script could have salvaged the first SS with the cast it had.

The problem is, Deadshot actually has a really interesting character arc that would fit into the movies.

(Rich dude who has had so much tragedy that he has a literal death wish and wants to do Suicide by being a Supervillain. And the contrast with his quasi-mother/son relationship with Amanda Waller that keeps him alive.)

If you want to do a different character, that's cool. But there are plenty of other gun based supervillains with few well defined character traits for you to use. Which is what they seem to be doing with Idris Elba and Bloodsport.

Yeah Smith was good but he wasn't Deadshot.

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings Releasing Exclusively to Theaters For 45 Days

Has this been confirmed somewhere else? It looks like Disney is going to do things this way. Sadly the usuals are taking it as a sign that is gonna flop and not that probably, maybe, a large part of the whole planet will be still in the middle of a loving pandemic by then.

To me it looks like a plan to get everyone out to see it by making it sound like it will be gone after then. But then it'll probably go on streaming for 20 or 30 bucks. But then Eternals is 2 months after it releases, so also probably a way to clear the way for that.

I think that’s a good strategy

By the end of 45 days of release most people are going to be done watching the movie theatrically that were planning to go

It seems it's gonna be "free" on D+ after 45 days, no extra fee.

That's Paul Sorvino turning on Timothy Dalton! Rocketeer has a fantastic cast and is underrated.

The Rocketeer is amazing for two reasons:

- the soundtrack
- one of the gangsters looking for the jet pack at the beginning is Rom from Deep Space Nine

Ben Grimm seems like the kind of person who'd say "There's a reason they call it dope, kid!" Sue, on the other hand, seems like she'd light up at the end of the day after having to deal with Reed's poo poo.

He was like that as a younger guy but Alicia smokes and so does Johnny so he eventually gave into peer pressure. Sue smoked before she had the kids but stopped after Franklin. Reed will do one hit if he's losing inspiration.

Nick Fury has both secret stashes of poo poo nobody in the country has heard of and the worst paranoia
Ant-man doesn't wanna go back to jail but there's no way he hasn't thought about how THC would interact with shrinking (and if he hasn't, Luis has)
Thor has tried it but was not impressed

Groot could probably be weed, if he wanted to

Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters is a combo high school/university thing, you think they're not gonna smoke up even if their principle is psychic?

Scott thinks he does, but everyone just sells him oregano. Professor X knows but thinks it's funny to show up and have a chat with him right after he "tokes" and watch him quietly panic.
