From the actor and actress POV, the MCU does do the one thing she was talking about - they keep the actors the same between the TV and the movies. The big characters are never going to show up on TV, but they didn't recast Clark Gregg or Powers Boothe when their characters went to TV, and Sam Jackson even made a cameo. At the same time, I don't think any of the TV characters have moved up to the movies, so....

Aren't they going to do a feature film with the Netflix characters? I mean, I assume it would just end up on Netflix, but still.

Timby posted:I feel like Kinnaman's the cast member with the most riding on this movie; he was the weak link in the RoboCop remake and just terrible in The Killing, and I feel like this might be his last opportunity to prove he can carry an action movie or just fade into obscurity like Sam Worthington and so many other flavors of the month. Nah, Kinnaman was the best thing about both of those.

But then there's also stuff like Jessica Jones having to drop Carol Danvers because the movies claimed her, Night Nurse having to be switched because the movies claimed her, and Alfre Woodard playing different characters in Luke Cage and Civil War.

Basically for the time being it's a one way street. The TV shows can get the actors of the movies if they're lucky and schedules align- but no way in gently caress are the TV show characters crossing into the movies. Not yet anyways

Those two maybe aren't different characters depending on how deep Zemo rolled in order to get the Avengers to fracture. Night Nurse yes, and Carol was supposed to be in JJ? Didn't we know about the Capt. Marvel movie before JJ was announced. Unless you are talking about the original Jessica Jones show that was pitched to be on ABC family a while back and likely wasn't gonna be in the MCU at all.

If they were going to use Carol in the show she would have been a very different character, just the lack of costumed superheroes in the movie universe suggests that. It made some amount of sense to use a different character there.

What would it take for TV shows to be taken seriously? An HBO type treatment? It seems a lot of people just dismiss TV altogether as an inferior medium but I'm starting to feel like movies are becoming less and less relevant. I think the biggest issue is how many millions of dollars you need just to produce 90-120 minutes of content and get it on the screen. And then that content might just be wildly disappointing. For instance, your average romantic comedy is just not as good as your average romantic comedy series on Netflix

TV shows are taken seriously. The reason why the MCU doesn't treat TV seriously is because that's one more thing to conform to in their shared universe. As an aside, a major appeal of movies is that they *don't* take 10 hours to finish. Even if the RomCom is less appealing than the Netflix one, at least it's over in 2 hours and you don't have to think about it again (another thing is that most people don't really rewatch media all that often).

Thor 3 will incorporate aspects of the "Planet Hulk" comic arc; including Jeff Goldblum hosting a Gladiatorial fight to the death between Hulk and cosmic beings. Also, Hulk will wear something other than Purple Pants for the first time ever in the MCU. http://www.avclub.com/article/hulk-might-be-wearing-more-stretchy-pants-thor-rag-237567 The report also says that Hemsworth is getting his head partially shaved during the movie. RIP those beautiful golden curls. Leon Trotsky 2012 fucked around with this message at 23:24 on Jun 1, 2016 |

Mad Men and Breaking Bad started the trend of prestige television and lots of Hollywood actors are jumping at the chance to star in them. Unfortunately, I don't think any show has had that same phenomenon status that those two did.

Is there something about the suit that makes it Old Man Logan? I've never read it, but he doesn't look any scruffier than he did in The Wolverine, or greyer than he did in DOFP.

No idea how you actually do Old Man Logan in the context of the X-men movies.

Unfortunately, I don't think any show has had that same phenomenon status that those two did. Game of Thrones is probably on their same level. I think another good indicator is if actors who became prominent because of a show start to show up in major movies. I still don't get how they're going to do Old Man Logan, between not really having any major villains, having Professor X be with him, already having done a movie about a mutant genocide in a dystopian future, etc. I mean, granted most comic adaptations are extremely lose but for this one I don't really see how they could actually take anything from it other than "older Logan in the future".

They are not really doing "Old Man Logan". I think they are just doing "Logan as an old man". The storyline will likely have more to do with the end credits stinger of X-Men Apocalypse where Mr Sinister's company obtained a sample of Wolverine's blood. Meanwhile, here is a terrible fanmade prequel to Ben Affleck's Batman where Donald Trump is Gotham's mayor and Batman started out using an ATV as his ride. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOUbs7e4B1s

I immediately remembered Sopranos right after I made that post, but I'd say it was the spark of things to come. I suppose GoT did fill the void BB/MM left.

It created the precise anti-hero mold that the shows you mentioned fall into, particularly Breaking Bad, was lauded during its time in the exact same way they were during theirs, and was a huge phenomenon. People went nuts over the series finale. I don't see how you can distinguish them.

You're right, I just didn't have HBO, so I've been distinguishing them differently because BB and MM came out at a time when streaming video(and piracy) caught on and made them more accessible to a wider audience.

That's definitely a factor though. HBO is/was practically a separate category from TV or movies (hence "Home Box Office"). AMC bringing prestige stuff to basic cable really did change things (although, as noted, the West Wing was already a Network thing).
