Yeah that too, they kept talking like "hey guys we might now make it out of this alive" and i'm just sitting there in the theater thinking "bitch Thor is getting another movie THIS loving YEAR, nothing is going to happen anybody" RIP Quicksilver, i have to admit i didn't see that coming on that topic i know they didn't have the rights to make them mutants in this movie but i think the post trailer scene should have been Magneto finding out that one of his kids died because of the Avengers so he gets super loving pissed Granted i don't know how "fatherly" Magneto is and if he'd actually do that but it'd make for a cool loving cross over

Who knows though maybe he will be.

I mean the right thing to do would be "Stay tuned for Iron Man 5 after Avengers 3" and as soon as Avengers 3 opens up, Stark dies in combat and Marvel does a huge "PSYCH! NO MORE IRON MANS HE'S DEAD YOU NERDS" and pulls all the Iron Man 5 stuff.

When Stark activates FRIDAY, another name in the list is JOCASTA. It sparks my autism but considering Hank Pym didn't create Ultron in this universe, it is acceptable. You hear that, Marvel? SA forums superstar Inzombiac has approved of your writing... for now. Ms. Marvel getting her own movie should be pretty huge as is brings in the Kree and Captain Marvel has an excuse to show up (outside of his pod). There will be a group of assholes who will scream their throats raw that it's a blond white woman and not the current Arab girl whoa hasn't had a completed run yet.

To be fair, Kamala's pretty popular with a ton of people who aren't the normal comic reading audience so it would have been pretty awesome if they used her. It makes sense they didn't though since not only as you said has she been Ms. Marvel for a very short amount of time I'm also almost positive she doesn't have any concrete villains at this point and her series is pretty comedic in tone as well and I feel like they don't want to have too many of those types of films besides Ant-Man and GOTG Honestly, I thought witty, one-liner Ultron was pretty effective. Sure him being a cold being would be creepy, but him being so human-like makes his decision to end all human life due to what he sees as simple logic more disturbing. He was also a million times better than Loki since all he did in the first film was try to act tough but get embarrassed every single time Alouicious posted:are you referring to Miles Morales, the very popular Ultimate Spiderman? He's so popular that he';s getting brought into the mainline Marvel Universe after the huge Secret Wars event that basically destroys the Ultimate Universe. Pretty sure he's one of the only remnants from that line they're keeping. OldTennisCourt has a new favorite as of 02:24 on May 11, 2015 |

Coulson isn't literally dead in one and alive in the other. It's more like as far as writing the movies goes, he's dead as far as they're concerned because his resurrection is so convoluted it isn't worth explaining.

Do we have to spoiler this really? He's dead in the movies because they don't loving know. Fury used his death as a way to get them to work together better, telling him "haha yea i secretly brought him back" would gently caress that up and make them distrust him even more.

Krinkle posted:The punisher was black? I can't find this anywhere. For a while Punisher ' s main villain was Jigsaw, who had a hosed up face after the punisher threw him through a window (or into a glass crusher depending on continuity) At some point Jigsaw gets his revenge on punisher by cutting up his face too. Punisher goes to a doctor and gets a miracle cure with the side effect of making him black for a few issues until it wears off. At some point Jigsaw gets a similar procedure done and the punisher immediately pushes him face first into a cactus.

I can not loving believe that the prima nocta crack is so controversial. It's clearly sarcastic and tongue in cheek by a guy who is known for making such statements. gently caress, does the internet need to be told in big flashing letters "This man does not actually want to bone new wives in his kingdom" so we can make sure no one is uncomfortable with anything ever?

Later Hill calls him out on it, pointing out that they were in his locker at the time. What the hell did Fury do, go to Coulson's locker, pull them out and swipe them over a gaping wound on his most prized agent? poo poo's hosed up, Fury. See I like that kind of stuff, it actually manages to make a character in a superhero movie complex. What drives me crazy is the screenwriters buy back his character traits by making him look like a great guy later. They spend whole movies alternating between Fury being an rear end in a top hat and then a nice guy who everyone loves again. Commit to the ballsy choice Marvel.

You do know the Kree were in Guardians of the Galaxy and Agents of Shield already right? One irrational irritation I have with the MCU is why Sif wouldn't have mentioned to Thor that Coulson's alive - she's met him like 3 times now since his death, and in one case it was because he was critically important to stopping an escaped Asgardian war criminal or whatever...

And given how Thor has been ducking Sif to fool around with Natalie Portman I can believe she'd keep it a secret to spite him. Girl must be pent-up like a geyser. Although that's my irrationally irritating moment-- how the gently caress have they dragged out a love triangle between those three over two movies? More to the point how is there even a competition?

I'm adopted and I totally get why the whole "he's adopted" line would offend sensitive people, but the line actually makes sense as it underscores why Loki is so pissed off at Thor-- Thor is immediately willing to sell Loki out as some monster and not even realize what an rear end he sounds like doing it.

But god drat I wish Janet Van-Dyne was in Avengers also It makes me super happy we're getting an Ant-Man movie, he needs to be in the Avengers. But It makes me sad its not Hank Pym so we're probably not ever getting The Wasp. HOOLY BOOLY posted:Had no idea that's what that "Prima Nocta" line was all about, that's a bit even for Tony Stark.

Yeah, James Spader actually delivered all his lines with his usual gravitas really well, but the lines themselves were total poo poo. Its like listening to Dinklage in Destiny; you know he can do more but he's just not being given ANYTHING he can work with. So blah blah blah. Evilreaver posted:He's not a threat because all the heroes are invulnerable. This is my PYF-IIMM. Except for Hawkeye/Black Widow, all heroes do not take damage and can splatter all mooks without effort. Fight scenes have no drama to them! Ultimately I didn't have a bad time at Avengers 2 but this kinda killed the film for me. Its just an army of metal zombies for the avengers to punch at. No threat whatsoever except for the main Ultron guy I guess, but even his own plans to make a flesh uberbody ends up just creating a super-god that stops him... wah wah. Why are any of Ultron's clones any weaker than he is? I get that there's only so much of the wakandan' unobtanium or whatever, but his general forces should all be just as smart and strong as his main non-unobtainum'd self, but they're not. They're total mooks who exist just to die at the hands of the avengers. So there's zero tension. These movies are all about the villains, and the Marvel ones of late have had REALLY lovely villains. Iron man 2 and 3 didn't do it for me, this didn't, Thor 2 didn't, all because of super weak villains with little character. Avengers 1 worked so well primarily because Loki was such an interesting villain who played really well off the team. They tried to do that with Ultron but it just wasn't the same remotely. Good news is that Thanos should be all the villain we ever need. Oh, P.S. cinematography was dildos. Nothing but close-up shots. It worked a handful of times, but it ruined all the action more often than not. I am so sick of Hollywood directors putting a tiny frame around an action shot where you can't even tell what's happening. Zoom the gently caress out. And use less cuts. Movie had waaay too many edits. I need to go watch Birdman again to cleanse my eyes. Alejandro Inarritu needs to hold directing lessons or something. Did you goons all see Birdman? Everybody should go study Birdman and make more movies like that. Zaphod42 has a new favorite as of 21:18 on May 11, 2015 |
