I think it's pretty lame how we still haven't had a decent superpower fight in a X-Men movie despite the series being perfect for them. Hell, supposedly the Stands from Jojo were partially inspired by a fight between Professor Xavier and another telepath using ghosts as metaphors for their psychic battle.

Part of the fun of Shazam as a DC property is his interactions with other superheroes, like I said before. Batman sees something of a kindred spirit, while there's famously that comic where Superman is shocked when he finds out Shazam's true identity, and immediately flies off to chew out the wizard for putting that burden on a child. For what is worth, there have been rumors of Cavill's Superman making an appearance.

Logan is amazing, but I kind of do wish evil Logan had a bit of the classic outfit to him just because it's the last time we're seeing the character in a movie for a while and it would actually fit with what the movie was going for with that glamorized stuff being bullshit.

No lie it would have been rad as gently caress to see Evil Logan show up in the outfit teased in The Wolverine.

The X-Men don't actually get the opportunity to be superheroes much, most of the movies are basically about their personal vendettas and/or fighting back against/running from the hostile government.

Well, here's the actor playing Freddy Freeman wearing the "remember" Superman shirt from 'Suicide Squad' on set. So it certainly seems like it's connected to the larger DC movie universe.

In one of the dumbass reboots they gave the talking tiger superpowers and he ate a man, which is missing the point in a multitude of ways.

Schwarzwald posted:I'm not very familiar with the original Captain Marvel but if this is his rouges gallery then I'm making him my favorite super hero. It pretty much is. Captain Marvel has some loving amazing villains. Dr. Sivana (who predates Lex Luthor) is basically Lex Luthor But Better And Crazier. Mr. Mind of course completely owns. Black Adam is the most popular one and you've probably heard of him. King Kull is an ancient caveman who also has supertechnology because gently caress you. Mr. Atom is an invincible rear end in a top hat robot defeated only by hubris IBAC is like budget Black Atom. He was a crook who went to hell and was given the combined powers of Atilla the Hun, Cesare Borgia, Ivan the Terrible and Caligula. (IBAC together.) He sucks and is hilarious. Mr. Banjo has the power of taking on a superpowered hero with nothing but a loving banjo. Nippo... okay let's not talk about Nippo. Yikes.

Captain Nazi is basically Well Captain America but a Nazi. he's way stronger than Steve Rogers and has drugs that let him fly, but otherwise his origin is pretty much just Captain America, but in Nazi Germany. He's also public domain

I'm a little let down by Thor Ragnarok. Going by the trailers I was expecting it to be a decent action-comedy that also happens to look gorgeous but its at best just "alright". Theres some really good stuff in there but its just ruined by some poor lighting and a lack of some truly great jokes.

In a better world Thor: Ragnarok was two movies, one all about Sakarr, the other all about returning to Asgard. Shoving the two together did the narrative no favors and resulted in a sometimes tonally disjointed movie. A movie I still really really liked, mind you, but one in which you can't help but see that there was more to do than the time allowed.
