I like construction worker Thanos he reminds me of Mussolini and Bane. Although he doesn't have Tom Hardy's hilarious voice. I'm just saying scary master in armor isn't something I'm champing at the bit to see. Also I really dig blonde ScarJo, I feel it's the best ScarJo. Overall movie looks a little flat but I'm sure as long as A) There are still some quips and B) Someone dies and the whole theater goes "Huuuuuhhhhh!!!!!" I'll be happy.

I hope the CGI character murders everyone and then has a 55 minute long sex scene with the personification of Death

Guy A. Person posted:I think the idea is that Thor and Hulk were two of the last hold outs who didn't have that kind of default irreverent, quippy personality. Possibly BP and Cap are still distinct from this tho. "Loki is my brother." "He killed 87 people." "He was adopted."

Also don't remember Hulk being "quippy" (the most overused word in this thread, nay, this universe) in Ragnarok.

Zzulu posted:I hope the CGI character murders everyone and then has a 55 minute long sex scene with the personification of Death So, Sausage Party. Really though, I am curious where they will go with both Marvel and DC now that Justice League is done, and Marvel is capping off Thanos after a ten year build-up. I was hoping they'd do some time wankery with Kang but he's tied up in Fox. Kang though would be a pretty awesome villain although I can't think of any that would be more "epic" other than Galactus or Doom, but again, that's tied up in Fox.

Marvel's said they want to back off on the EPIC BATTLE WITH THE WORLD AT STAKE stuff after Infinity War. If they do, though, I still think Shuma-Gorath would be a nice next epic bad guy.

WENTZ WAGON NUI posted:I've grown increasingly suspicious with the idea of "hate-watching," or "ironically liking," or "so bad it's good," over the years. If you find yourself drawn to something in spite of yourself you probably like it. Funnily enough this means I no longer accept the idea of a movie being "just" fun. A fun movie (like, for ex., Underworld 7 or whatever the one with the Norwegian ice vampires is) is good---it's just not all good movies are fun (The Black Stallion for ex., is the prettiest night-tonic for sleeping ever shot). This. People who have this mentality about movies (or any artistic work) are far too concerned about the intent of the creators, or whether a movie has the right set of signifiers to be considered officially "good". Just allow yourself to have an experience and focus on your reaction to the work.

I assumed any quick funny line usually done to put down someone is a quip.

This is a time-honoured play from comics to assure you that the epic, world-shaking stakes of the upcoming summer event won't be cheapened by the epic, world-shaking stakes of the upcoming end-of-summer event.

Movie Fight always seemed pretty dumb when movies are more than a single picture especially when people usually pick the blurriest possible ones HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:Hate to break it to you but the film CITIZEN KANE is a little bit cynical. I moreso meant her belief that he was always a horrible person who had no intentions of doing right by his fellows.

Conal Cochran posted:This. Right. The corollary of this is that no movie, from Underworld 7 to Salo to A Serbian Film to Hostel to My Little Pony: Pinky Pie's Day Off, is "just [for] fun." That itself implies a success or fail state, "was the movie successful, a balance of creativity and fidelity to the Eli Roth-Reboot My Little Pony shared universe?" Actually a movie is successful if it evokes a concordant response in you like, now I want to go create my own thing, even if that thing is just a scathing two thousand word essay against Zack Snyder's worship of chromed male abdominals.

I'm not a wild comicbook fan, but any-and-all smug "pft. What's there to be excited about a bunch of CGI battles?" clearly never got excited about Super Smash Brothers and it's ilk. Dude! It's Donkey Kong and Mario! *sequel comes out including villians* OH MY GOD AND NOW THEY'RE FIGHTING GANONDORF AND BOWSER!

What's there to be excited about a bunch of CGI battles?" clearly never got excited about Super Smash Brothers and it's ilk. Edit: Man, covering my rear end here, clearly this is all what you said in more so full admission of guilt and revising as "head hanging in shame"... The appeal isn't in the CGI itself, it's in what the CGI communicates about the game. It's a promotional trailer specifically promoting features in the game. "Imagine what you might do" Really, the use of existing characters nearly wholesale is pretty common to fighting games. Android 18 was the blueprint for, ahem, Blue Mary in Garou Densetsu/Fatal Fury 3, for instance. Street Fighter 2 onward has a very overt relationship with Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. Rose is Lisa Lisa, but what should be more of a tip off is that "Nash/Charlie" is also a Jojo's Bizarre Adventure inspired character. He's a remediation of Kakoyin Noriyaki, right down to how he dies in Street Fighter Alpha 2. There's references to real world fighters as well, fighting games have become focalized/fixated on the sale of fictional/fantasy crossovers. Mind you a lot of the imagination and interesting parts have been lobotomized. But what was interesting about good fighting game scenario design was never allowing a clear answer to "Who would win?" The point was that in a fighting game, you decide. But in a game like Smash Bros. which invokes more overtly the idea of playing with toys, yes, when you release a CGI trailer that is visibly invoking the language of a commercial that would show money shots of "Kung-Fu Grip", "Battle Damage", "Glows in the Dark", you are effectively telling your audience that their toy has a very exciting new feature.
