I know he was more than just an MCU actor, but I was really looking forward to him taking a larger role in that post-Endgame post-Cap/Tony universe.

I dunno, the Paul Walker stuff in F7 looked so bad and awkward that I couldn’t help but laugh. Between that and how Carrie Fisher got shafted in TRoS, I’d rather they just deal with Chadwick’s death offscreen somehow and start the movie afterward with Shuri or whoever having to deal with taking up the mantle and not having him around for guidance anymore.

It’s rarely ever the fault of the kids though. It’s the horrible loving parents who use their kid’s talent and don’t give a poo poo about what it does to them. The worst example in recent memory is the Stranger Things girl being manipulated into feeling incredibly guilty for not taking a dozen roles each year because her entire deadbeat family uses her as their sole source of income.

Oh poo poo, I forgot Monica Rambeau was going to be in this somehow. Happy to see Kitty Forman again too, but for some reason my brain short-circuited and I thought the bearded guy in that scene was Paul Bartel.

FlamingLiberal posted:Disney is reportedly making a Nick Fury Disney+ Marvel show for the streaming service. Speculation in the article is that this could involve him and SWORD, which was teased at the end of Spider-Man Far From Home. That lines up nicely with the apparent SWORD hints we’ll be getting in WandaVision and TF&TWS.

Maybe I’m just making assumptions, but I think a lot of the anti-theater sentiment comes from only having access to giant chain multiplexes, which do genuinely suck. Small theaters are the best, the kind of little independent and small chain places that do midnight showings of old flicks and oddities that you’d never see in an AMC or Cinemark. Before the pandemic my friends and I would go to the theater on a weekly basis and I miss it dearly. There’s nothing like seeing a good movie on a big screen with a good audience and VOD will never be able to replicate or replace that.

I remember liking John DiMaggio’s Joker in Under the Red Hood, even though the rest of that movie is incredibly dull and uninteresting just like every Red Hood thing.

STAC Goat posted:I think Iron Man 2 benefits/suffers from being the big "world builder" entry. Its the movie where the MCU really started to expand into what its become and back then I think its incredibly cool to see Black Widow and Fury and War Machine and everything else, but 10 years later after so many MCU films and teamups that's really not that special and its a bit of a less impressive standalone piece. I still remember what a crazy novelty it was to see Cap’s shield appear for like half a second in IM2. All the Phase 1 movies still have this unique quirkiness to me because they were clearly still figuring things out and hadn’t yet reached that fine-tuned assembly line feel of the later phases. I’d almost call it nostalgia if the movies weren’t barely a decade old. They’re never going to recapture that “holy poo poo they’re actually doing it” feel of getting all these characters together in one movie, although Endgame definitely came close.

I still think the best way to do an MCU F4 movie is to start with them doing Super Science! in the 60s, then their big experiment sends them forward in time to the current MCU so you get that Space Age optimism mixed with fish out of water/man out of time stuff. Ideally you’d just skip the entire origin ala Homecoming, but I doubt they’ll pass up the opportunity given the public reception of every previous F4 movie incarnation.

That, plus the incredibly dumb “we have to make them out of this one particular fabric only made by a single company in Switzerland, even though it’s contributing to production delays” aspect. Although lmao that they just re-dyed a bunch of them and removed the little Delta panels to make the Pike Enterprise uniforms last season.

I swear I’ve heard the big swelling dramatic music that plays after Diana renounces her wish and flies for the first time before. Like, many times before. As in they just stuck some stock trailer music in as a temp score and never went back and swapped it out before release. I’m all for streaming services putting these exclusive releases out while covid is still a thing and theaters are inherently dangerous places to be, but uh maybe double check your final cut before rushing it out just to get those Christmas vacation subscriptions.

I think part of it is also him wanting to be a big successful man because he thinks it’ll earn his son’s love, but like everything else about his motivation it’s very underbaked.

Yeah, the setting seemed like a complete afterthought once the Steve clothing montage was over. Even the Soviet stuff didn’t feel like an exclusively 80s thing, as weird as that sounds. You could have subbed any mention of Soviets or Russia for some other country and the last act would have played out pretty much the same. Go big or don’t bother. Pump your movie full of New Wave and use actual Reagan as a war-hungry piece of poo poo instead of some knockoff that isn’t even named in dialogue.

Barry Convex posted:sounds to me like this is being rushed into production so that it can wrap before filming starts on Rogue Squadron, hope I’m wrong Serious question, what does DC even have on their future slate besides this, The Batman, and Shazam 2? I’m assuming an Aquaman 2 is also probably likely, along with whatever movie Harley Quinn will inevitably show up in.

SonicRulez posted:Captain America was my favorite Avenger and I was bummed that Endgame was his swansong before he ever got to meet Daredevil or Wolverine, so I'm happy to have him back in any capacity Cap will always be my favorite, but Scott and Thor are close seconds. I think TF&TWS has a real chance of being Sam's big breakthrough too, since he'll no longer just be Cap's support. I want to like Dr Strange so much, but Cumberbatch is just kind of okay and I keep wanting him to go full Dr Orpheus with it. He does still have one of the best MCU costumes, however.

So uh, WandaVision is pretty drat great so far. I would 100% watch Bettany and Olsen just do an actual Dick Van Dyke/Bewitched revival. I never cared about either character in any of the movies, but I’m real interested in where this show goes now. So Wanda’s definitely being held in some kind of SWORD facility and at least a few of the “sitcom” characters are SWORD agents, yeah? We already know one of them just from casting, but I’m sure there are others. Dottie seems too obvious, my money’s on her being some kind of AI or representation of the program/device doing all this to Wanda. I know nothing about the comic version of SWORD though, so maybe I’m way off.
