Is Thor 3 coming out on digital before avengers 4? I'd like to see it first but probably not going to in theaters

I'd bet money on it hitting digital no later than March.

I know people absolutely loathe John Ottoman's X-Men theme but you have to admit that Avengers poo poo is bottom of the barrel. Worst of the worst, total stinker.

Ottman's theme is just Kamen's X-Men theme sped up by 300 percent, but even as uninspiring as Silvestri's work was, it was still miles better than the poo poo Brian Tyler did on Age of Ultron (which Whedon hated so much he wound up hiring Danny Elfman late in post-production as a replacement, and all Elfman did was insert Silvestri's theme at a few key places). About the only good thing Tyler did was re-use his Iron Man 3 theme for a brief quote when the Hulkbuster was fully assembled.

Seriously, this poo poo sucks (much like the movie):

There is one good comic book superhero theme and it is the theme from the 90s X-Men cartoon. They should just use that in every comic book movie.

there are two; the second is the japanese OP of the same cartoon

I liked how Ant-Man was in basically every scene in that trailer. You've just gotta squint to see him.

Real talk though, I don't know what's wrong with me because unlike almost every goon in this thread so far, I loved that trailer. I must be the target audience for this bullshit. Seeing that ensemble cast in a CGI cluster gently caress where no one but a handful of characters will get more than a few minutes of screen time must be entirely my poo poo.

Nah man, it's very much my poo poo as well. I'm hyped for it!

Eh, even Kamen's score had good spots, but that was primarily because he was so rushed and only had a few weeks to compose the score that he had to lift from his other works. "Logan & Rogue" is pretty substantially the same as his Highlander theme.

Last Stand is better than it gets credit for. The director even successfully apes Singers style for the most part and the story has individually some very good scenes and well written ones. Just as a whole the script sucks and the story sucks and Ratner felt the need to insert dumb memes like Juggernaut bitch.

He was talking about Alan Silvestri, who basically fell off a cliff in the late '90s or early aughts ... his last genuinely great scores I can think of are Judge Dredd and I guess I'll go to bat for Lilo & Stitch. But everything after has just been a wall of brass.

He's also scoring Infinity War.

yeah that infinity war trailer didn't show much other than dramatic swooping shots of the characters. i can't think of anything i want less than a battle in an open field between the heroes and a bunch of cgi alien monsters. vision looks creepy as gently caress now

the music is pretty good though. the avengers theme may only have about 5 seconds of good sound, but they know when to bust it out

Unlike most cultural references, "Juggernaut bitch" won't be confusing or stand out at all over time because it works as just a dick saying a dickish thing.

It's funny...

You were so scary at night.
It's weird because the trailer spends a lot of time with Tony Stark in a hoodie hanging out in Doctor Stranger's wrecked foyer and then has a moneyshot of some of the heroes running through some trees. It's mostly a slideshow of characters with the only real effective moment being Beard Cap's reveal.

I remember the leaked Comic Con trailer actually having beats and a sense of momentum. Odd that they'd regress from that.

I don't think it's that odd. This is the first trailer which doesn't show too much other than "here's some stuff". The next one will probably have some of those things. I agree it wasn't as neat as the comic con trailer (or what the comic con trailer appeared to be)

Why can’t you guys just be excited about a film we’ve waited a decade for?

It’s very clear that Cap (and obviously) Spidey & Vision are toast. I’m also suspecting that Black Panther will literally die defending Wakanda.

It also appears that Iron Man and gang are leading Thanos on a chase to lure him away from earth.

Any speculation that Cap’s shield will look considerably different considering it will be made in Wakanda?

Bunch of peoples running in a CGI jungle. Cool???? It's only now that im noticing falcon is even there because in the trailer he just blends into the background and War Machine nearly gets lost in all that poo poo too. It looks really bad.
