Solo wanted to be the Ant-Man of Star Wars, but it ended up being the Dr Strange of Star Wars, except I'm pretty sure Dr Strange made money.

Dr. Strange was just there to be pretty, everything else was an afterthought And-Man felt disjointed but ended up being great.

BrianWilly posted:I still can't get over how bad the worldbuilding in Doctor Strange was and how poorly the plot and characterizations were depicted. "Using the Dark Dimension is bad! Why? It just is, that's why, you big hypocrite! [bunch of sorcerers fight about this]" Also some people wanna live forever and this is totally relevant to anything at all The dark dimension brings down Dormmamu who kills planets. It’s bad. And someone who says “don’t do this it’s bad” does it to just to live forever and that breaks Mordo’s brain.

A.I. Borgland Corp posted:Well her show was dang racist and I think she wrote it. I've literally never watched it and she has zero writing credits for it (or anything), so that doesn't really explain anything. Some searching suggests that there was an Asian caricature character? I'm not sure that really qualifies her as "gigantic racist"

When you do the most racist show on TV for 5 years, that qualifies.

I enjoy Kat Dennings' performance in the Thor films but yes that show is definitely racist as hell, although I don't think she has any creative input in it (a very mild mitigation).

Mulva posted:The answer is clearly, always and forever, Hulk. It's the one that people often forget was even a movie in the first place. Like TDW has moments, here or there, that show the people in it can rise above the material. Loki mourning his mother is a well done moment for instance. That's something. Hulk is literally a big pile of nothing that you need to remind people was even a Marvel flick. It is literally forgettable rather than rhetorically. It's hard to get much worse than that. I skipped over Incredible Hulk in my big pre-Infinity War MCU rewatch because it's so plainly irrelevant to the rest of the franchise, so you might be right. I also skipped Ant-Man, but I'll rewatch that one soon enough.

Ant-Man was carried by fun set pieces and extremely good and perfect casting. The story was generic as gently caress, but that cast was so loving good.

I wish I had archives, because I swear people in the previous thread were praising the gently caress out of Thor 2 right before it hit the states.

I loved it when I saw it. But it just didn’t hold up after. I loved the creature design and practical suit monster, but everything else was really bland. End battle is cool though.

Ant-Man entire premise was to make the silliest poo poo they could with changing the size of random things and it delivered that in spades.

I like Thor 2 but I’m in the minority. The stuff with Loki and Thor is great, the stuff with Jane Foster less so. Supporting cast is fine. Kat Dennings should have been Jane Foster though.

I never have gotten the hate for Portman or saying she was sleepwalking. I thought she was good.

Rand Brittain posted:Ant-Man was fun, but I always found it very disjointed, because they seemed to want Ant-Man to be both a criminal, and also completely innocent? So people keep reacting to him like he's a repeat felon and can't be trusted, even though based on his stated actions he's done literally nothing wrong and is a hero. It's the reason why Edgar Wright left the movie apparently. Wanted him to be less heroic or something. e: There's a lot of great stuff Peyton Reed added tho.

CelticPredator posted:The dark dimension brings down Dormmamu who kills planets. It’s bad. And the thing with Mordo is that we never even actually saw the Ancient One forbidding anyone from using the Dark Dimension -- again, from what I can remember -- and the first we hear about this is after she's dead and suddenly this is a big deal that Mordo is angry about. It's terrible plotting. The impact of this storyline is supposed to be that this wise noble mentor broke her own noble rules which leads to one of her students rebelling out of bitterness and self-righteousness...but we the audience didn't even know that these rules existed until Mordo was angry about them, and even then it's not clear why breaking them is such a bad thing. More importantly, we don't care. Every character in the film is fighting to the death over these poorly-explained mystical minutiae about life and death and darkness and there's not a single emotional tether to any of it besides them telling us through purple prose that it's supposed to be a big deal. The Ancient One used dark powers...but she was a nice white lady who didn't seem corrupted, so...big whoop? Mordo has a rigid code and won't accept things outside that code...but we barely know Mordo as a person so the only reason he thinks that is because he just does. On the other hand, Kaecillius does have a reason for wanting to live forever and doing whatever it takes to achieve that...but why would any of it matter to Strange other than the usual generic "He's going to destroooy the wooorld!" plug-in?

Hmm dunno why it got deleted but the article seems to still be uphttps://www.newsarama.com/40541-feige-marvel-studios-film-will-have-openly-lgbtq-characters-in-upcoming-films.html posted:Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige has stated that there will be openly LGBTQ characters in future Marvel films - and that at least one has already debuted. In an interview with The Playlist, Feige was asked if an LGBTQ character was "in the works", which Feige answered succinctly, "Yes."

site posted:Hmm dunno why it got deleted but the article seems to still be up We know there was a scene filmed for Thor Ragnarok establishing Valkyrie as a lesbian (or bisexual, I suppose) that was cut from the final product, so that's one. There have also been persistent rumors without a credible source that Mantis is meant to be a lesbian. For showing that openly in their movies, I'll believe it when I see it. Far less an actual major character being queer.

Sign my petition to hire a mercenary outfit to kidnap Kevin Feige and hold him at an undisclosed location until Cap is made openly gay, no backsies. And before you ask, he's a switch. Because he represents all Americans.

Basically siphoning power from the Dark Dimension is like siphoning it from Hell. You may not be directly helping the things that live there, but it certainly doesn't help keep them contained.

Lets do like those guys are doing with The Last Jedi and club together the money to remake Thor 2 ourselves. Who knows what would make a good Thor movie better than us? It will be taking Thor back to his pre-SJW roots. He'll lose his walking stick and have to search New York for it as Dr. Donald Blake for 95% of the movie. Let the magic happen!
