In retrospect, the Lost in Space movie was strangely prescient of Hickman.

Good luck making non-nerds care about the pulp sci-fi legacy though hahaha. Someone should just adapt Marshal Law or The Boys already, bring on some dead capes. fatherboxx fucked around with this message at 10:19 on May 16, 2016 |

It figures, you not only like the worst Dr Who but also the worst Punisher  Actual screenshot from the movie:  Also I just realised I meant to type "internal logic" in the earlier post and not "interior logic" which doesn't make any loving sense unless you're talking about Kubrick's The Shining.

It always looked to me like they made a fake hallway to make Danny look huge but it is probably just the weird low angle they filmed it at. Anyway that is a great shot.

Shane Black confirmed that he originally wrote the villain in IRON MAN 3 as a woman, and Marvel came back and said it won't sell toys so he'll have to change it (He also stresses multiple times that it came from above Kevin Feige). He also stated that Marvel specifically made their one-shot about the real Mandarin being out there because they got a lot of complaints about how they treated that character, proving that people will complain about anything.

The Mandarin was a wonderful villain, although it is kinda funny that fans apparently got mad at one of the only good jokes in any of these movies.

Since then no movie with Tony Stark has dipped below a billion (Civil War will pass it this week almost certainly). It's just more typical nerd self-importance: "if they don't listen to us we'll tank their next movie!" The Mandarin was also the most interesting Marvel villain until Zemo so just jesus christ.

It's unlikely they'll ever revisit the Mandarin either so the story was probably "oh hey, Ben Kingsley is free for an afternoon, let's make a 10 minute video".

So they expected people to buy action figures of Guy Pearce and Ben Kingsley from that movie? They couldn't have put a female in the completely made-up "final mandarin tank battle" lego set?

If people are wondering about representation in Lego playsets here's a list. Out of 89 Marvel characters (many of which are multiples of the same character) there were only 10 female characters. Out of 76 DC characters there were only 9 female characters.Sir Kodiak posted:It wasn't just a minority creating bad word of mouth for Batman v Superman. True, I misread.

The interview with Black was pretty good, and it sounds like maybe Rebecca Hall's character would've been the villain:quote:Why? Rebecca Hall’s character does have an abrupt ending. http://uproxx.com/movies/shane-black-the-nice-guys-iron-man-3/
