Wonder how these things work. It’s possible she had already auditioned and made the shortlist before Wise was ultimately cast.

Wonder how these things work. Yeah they record the auditions and have their notes from them. So as soon as they found out they needed ri make a change they review their notes and make a call.

Man, every single scene in Infinity War seems like it could be the climax of a film. I think the whole "Hela is a stand-in for Death" specurumors only got as much traction as it did because Thor: Ragnarok hadn't been released yet; if you look at that character in that film, there's no way she fits the Death persona.

Yeah, they would have to have some kind of history together and she was not depicted as the "ruler of the underworld" she is in the comics. Shouldn't Than-"the tin can"-ose have the red stone as well? I could have sworn we'd already seen a brief clip of him standing on the collector. I guess it could be on his thumb, I'm not sure we get a good shot of it

I was just thinking, since we have no idea where the Soul Stone is, what if that becomes a plot point? Good guys trying to find out where the stone is before Thanos can? Maybe that's a major plot in the next movie or something. I've kept thinking that we'll be told where it is, like all the other stones. But what if it's just everyone going "WHERE THE gently caress IS THIS STONE?" and it turns out some frost troll was using it as a paperweight.

Because finally someone other than white dudes gets to have a "power fantasy". Or was he implying that Black people don't have any power and that makes Black Panther somehow less realistic than say Iron Man or Doctor Strange?

He was definitely belittling the people that the film is inspiring. Before he blocked me I saw some posts he made claiming that wearing BP merch was the same as announcing allegiance to the BP Party. He's a special fella.

I see Black Panther took a pretty steep drop in China in its second week. Not quite as big as TLJ (which I believe had a 94% drop in its second week) but still pretty big (88% is the figure I've seen). I doubt it's necessarily a poor reflection on audiences in China; if you look at the most successful movies worldwide so far this year, about half of them are Chinese (and Indian) pictures, which leads me to assume that it's just a case of very strong homegrown competition having more appeal than big American releases.

Well, that, and it's a very powerful movie that stirs the audience's feelings on a topic that most Chinese are probably completely unaware of. Like, racism in China is a thing and all, but not the same kind, and pretty much all the actual specifics of what happens in the movie most likely have no resonance for them at all.

Also there was no Chinese star cameo, was there? Like that scientist in some of the Iron Man and Avengers movie. Edit: who could Jackie Chan play in the MCU?

Do actual Chinese people who don't work for the Bureau Of Ridiculous Schemes To Make Our Nation Look Important even care about that? I would have assumed they filed it in the same place in their brain that Americans file Trump's military parade and tried hard to ignore it.

I believe Kevin Feige has said they aren't doing those any more since it doesn't seem to matter and Chinese audiences are just watching their movies anyway.
