Antman and Starlord in the same room would be pretty great.

Oddly enough, even though Chris Pratt and Paul Rudd played the same basic character on Parks and Recreation (lovable idiot manchild), I'm pretty sure they never shared a scene at any point.

I've seen shit you people wouldn't believe. Cop cars on fire off the shoulder of I-94. I watched search lights glitter in the dark near the Ambassador Bridge. All those moments will be lost in time, like piss in the drain. Time to retch.

I think this is a mix of "Cap's argument would likely not persuade every single live person in the MCU, between its flaws when not accepted as part of a dramatic story vs. a public policy agenda" and "even if Cap's argument wasn't widely accepted, SOME people would totally do so - people still wave the rebel flag!"

Yes, he’s been photographed in the costume. I think we’re all just kind of pretending we don’t know that outside of spoiler tags.

Captain marvel started production today

https://twitter.com/CBR/status/978322785062699008?s=19

The story follows Carol Danvers as she becomes one of the universe’s most powerful heroes when Earth is caught in the middle of a galactic war between two alien races

Think of the good things, Pim! The good things!

Like Jesus, candy, and crackerjacks! Ice cream and cake and lots o'laffs!
Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Joe! Larry, Curly, and brother Moe!
Captain Marvel production press release has some pretty big surprises, though I guess they make sense given the period setting and Kree focus of the plot.

quote:

The film stars Academy Award® winner Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Mendelsohn, Djimon Hounsou, Lee Pace, Lashana Lynch, Gemma Chan, Algenis Perez Soto, Rune Temte, McKenna Grace, with Clark Gregg, and Jude Law.

Never heard of Soto, Temte, or Grace before, and no idea who they might be playing.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

They're a bit late announcing it, it started a week ago. There's been photos of Jude Law and Brie Larson on set (in the green costume still.)


Oh, and since I don't think we ever discussed it, turns out the reason Larson filmed those earlier scenes where we first saw the costume is basically a tax scam. So she's probably not appearing in Infinity War in costume.

McKenna Grace was in Gifted with Chris Evans last year. She's a very good young actress so maybe she's playing young Carol.

As a reinvigorated AoS fan I am hype for Agent Coulson.


Also Lee Pace whaaaaaaaaaat.

Yesssss, I'm so hyped for Coulson to return to the movies, even if it takes place before most of the MCU. The casting of Lee Pace and Djimon Hounsou means that we're getting Ronan the Accuser and Korath again, right?

Almost definitely, since the Kree are definitely in it and it takes place before GotG. I’m hyped as poo poo, I liked those two a lot in GotG and was disappointed they were killed off.

Korath was great despite being in like 12 minutes of GotG. I hope he and Ronan are just kind of stumbling around 90's Earth getting into shenanigans.

Fantastic! I'm even more hyped about this movie now with those two returning, as I was also a big fan of both in the original Guardians.
