Barry Convex posted:so, barring the possibility that Aaron Taylor-Johnson returns as Pietro at some point in the last four episodes, I wonder whether there's bad blood between him and Marvel or whether he just didn't want to return. more likely the latter though I think it’s not necessarily either of those things, more that one of the few things that Wanda can’t do is bring someone back from the dead, so in order to bring him back she had to pull a version of Pietro from another universe. It would’ve been possible to cast Aaron Taylor-Johnson again but that wouldn’t make it as clear what she’s doing and wouldn’t have the same implications for the multiverse. Plus the Evan Peters version is more popular anyway. I don’t know much about Taylor-Johnson but he’s only been in a couple things since Age of Ultron, I can’t imagine he wouldn’t want to return to the only role most people know him from.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:This might be a stretch to think they planned this out in advance, but someone pointed out on Twitter that there might be a Doctor Strange connection to Wandavision. Doctor Strange came out during the season of Agents of SHIELD with the Darkhold (and when the show still had some very loose ties to what was happening in the MCU), and I remember people pointing to the missing book in that scene as a possible connection then too

it'll be revealed next episode that Sparky was actually a rabid possum that became a cute dog when Wanda hexed it, so actually Agatha is a hero who euthanized a sick animal humanely

The United States posted:My favorite part was when they had the DARKHOLD of DARKNESS: THE DARKENING, a magic book where reading it makes you evil and insane, and they had the bright idea to have a robot read it because it couldn't possibly work on a robot, and then that robot turned evil and insane. I loved that season, the actress who played Aida was so good. In fact AoS S4, taken on its own, might be my favorite MCU thing to date.

live with fruit posted:It's not a line, though. It's the reason why Jimmy, who is based out of San Francisco, found himself in New Jersey in time for Wanda's shenanigans. Especially if part of the point is setting Jimmy up for future movies/shows, it'd be strange for him to end the show without actually coming back to his original motivation. His motivation wasn't the missing person though, he only flew out there once he realized something strange was going on with the town. In the scene where he and Monica meet he says "Something seemed hinky to me, so I took the first flight out of Oakland to interface with local law enforcement".

It’d be real boring if every future MCU project is either another origin story or has to explain why it’s heroes weren’t fighting Thanos. I’d be fine if they don’t mention it at all. Also that Avengers discussion bit definitely felt at odds with the rest of the footage, I wonder if it was specific filmed for the trailer

live with fruit posted:One of the rumors is that they all have amnesia and don't realize that they're Eternals until something snaps them out of it, probably one of the snaps. I think I read it will pull at least a little from the 2006 Neil Gaiman run of Eternals, which starts with the main character in that exact situation. That’s the only Eternals comic I’ve read but it was pretty good, I’m looking forward to the film.

Chloe Bennett left the Powerpuff Girls show for “scheduling reasons” so let’s all wildly speculate that it’s because she is playing Quake in an upcoming MCU project and not because that show was going to be terrible https://twitter.com/theavclub/status/1425563061973180418?s=21

That was a good trailer, seems clear that all of the actual scenes shown are from the first act and then just brief glimpses of the rest of the film. Also Molina as Doc Ock was the best movie Spidey villain by a lot so super glad to see him.Comfy Fleece Sweater posted:Oh duh,I missed it at first but the main villain could be The Sinister Six, right? Ock, Goblin, Electro, Vulture and Mysterio have all been introduced, you only need Kraven. I called multiverse Sinister Six back when the first casting rumors started circulating, would be neat if that came true

yeah as much as I love them in the comics, big stretchy hands would be really hard to pull off in live action without looking stupid. Plus Mr Fantastic is coming at some point and the powers are pretty similar. And like Oasx said, the writing and characterization is what’s important, not the specifics of how she punches people.

Bust Rodd posted:This might be nothing, but I’ve seen “people” make complaints to the effect of Ms Marvel being “fatphobic” or “body negative” because she can make her body look however she wants but still “chooses” to be kinda normal looking skinny Pakistani woman. I sincerely hope this isn’t a response to that. I started seeing this discourse pop up around the time the Avengers game dropped and lots of people discovered her for the first time. what an incredibly stupid take.  That’s what she looked like before going through terragenesis and part of her first story arc is to stop using her powers to shape shift into Carol Danvers and just be herself.

Went to see Eternals last night, I feel like it would've worked a lot better as a limited series. There were parts of it I liked a lot but there were too many characters and not enough time was spent on most of them for me to be very invested in what happened.

BRJohnson posted:Also, (SMNWH) why does redeeming the villians save them, if they were dead in their realities what does their post mortem change of heart accomplish? (no way home spoiler) they weren't dead quite yet, they were sucked out of their realities right before dying and having the change of heart is supposedly enough to stop them from doing whatever it was that killed them when they get back. e.g. Doc Ock being free of the influence of the arms means he lets go or whatever and doesn't get sucked into the river

I remember liking JJ S3 more than S2 but I also couldn't tell you what it was about or a single thing that happened in it. I think it coasted by on the strength of Kristin Ritter's performance but it's definitely not essential.

Rarity posted:No new MCU content for 5 months that’ll give you time to read more comics, you can make it to at least 1956 by then I don’t think I’ve read any Marvel stuff from before the 60s, but the original runs of Spider-Man, Hulk, and especially Fantastic Four are all super fun. Reading everything is a lofty goal, depending on your age you may not get caught up on Marvel before you retire. Goonspeed!

AoS season 4 (Ghost Rider/LMDs/Agents of Hydra) is up there with the best seasons of any Marvel show IMO, and most of the others are good with some great moments here and there (Quake launching Graviton into orbit is still one of my favorite moments in any superhero show). It would be neat to see some characters pop up in minor side roles (e.g. Fitz and Simmons as scientists in one or two scenes, no backstory necessary), but I doubt even that will happen and I'm fine with the show being its own separate thing.

BrianWilly posted:Well, parts of it are, for sure. I'd say there are at least a couple of six-episode stretches that are better than Loki, Hawkeye, or maybe even TFATWS. I liked the cast enough that even the lesser seasons were still fun watches. The first half of season 1 was the worst stretch since it spins it wheels and the characters , but being able to just plow through it and not wait so long between episodes like when it first aired probably makes it better. And then Bill Paxton shows up and kicks the show up a notch. AoS season 4 is up there with the first seasons of DD/JJ IMO (different tone obviously), and season 5 has one of my favorite moments in any Marvel show or movie - Quake just loving launching Graviton into orbit

IUG posted:Ugh, that was my confirmation that they changed her powers for me, and that turned me right off on it. Her original powers were fun! eh, there's still a shot where she makes her fist huge, and they may not want to lead with some of the goofier looking effects. Plus who knows it could be a "you don't need this bracelet to be a hero, your powers come from within" type story and she ditches it by the end. I love her original powers too but I'll reserve judgment until I watch the show, which looks great otherwise

sticklefifer posted:The best part about Orphan Black was any time Tatiana Maslany played one of her characters pretending to be another one, with such a level of subtlety that you could TELL she wasn't the original because they had such distinct mannerisms. Yeah she was so incredible in that, there is one episode where she is Alison pretending to be Cosima and it’s one of the most impressive performances I’ve ever seen. And she’s hilarious too.
