Yeah the movie gauntlet requires fist clenching to use instead of just thought, possibly to make the fights seem like the heroes have even a sliver of a chance of winning. It also seemed to explode after the snap, which is not something that even caused the comic book gauntlet to break a sweat. The most amusing thing about Infinity War is that after 10 years of seeing Thanos plot to get infinity stones, he hadn't even gotten 2 at the start of the film, and then he just got them all in like half a day.

Thanos punches hulk several times so I don't think making the fist was an issue but tbh I'd have to watch it again to see if the gem lights up or not cuz I can't remember

BiggerBoat posted:I'll go to bat for Incredible Hulk. Incredible Hulk is 2/3 of a really solid movie. The last 1/3 just drags it down a lot. The Favella, college fight scene, Blonsky, and Norton are all great and still hold up. The opening credits scene to give the origin story is very smart as well.

The Russos have said in interviews that they came up with that mostly just to add some variety to the fights so it isn't just Thanos calmly walking down hallways blowing everything up and no one being able to meaningfully fight him.

Just loaded up iw real quick and I didn't see the power stone light up at all but a lot of the punches getting thrown were too fast to get a good look. I think that was all Thanos

On the commentary the Russos said Thanos did not use the stones to beat Hulk, the writers confirmed the same in an interview. Also the reason for Thanos doing it now instead of five or ten years ago was because his plan depended mostly on the soul stone and he had no idea where that was.

It was hidden for like thousands of years until Thor 2 allegedly happened. Besides, I like the idea that Odin and/or the Ancient One could have been a problem for Thanos to the point that he didn't want to risk making a move against them. When they both died AND he found out where the Soul and Reality stones were, he couldn't pass up the perfect opportunity to strike.

Was it ever made clear is Thanos knew he had the Mind Stone in a scepter for who knows how long? It's kinda interesting in a funny way how the stone traveled around from the first Avengers to the last, starting and ending with Thanos.

I actually also like the idea that Thanos was waiting on some cosmic people (could probably add Ego) to die off before putting his plan into motion. Ultimately though, his was always clear that his plan was to set up everything and then act. Why spent years gathering and having to defend the stones when you can just make a day of it?

Yeah, they explicitly say in the Avengers that Thanos gave Loki the scepter because he knew it was the same material as the tesseract and would let Loki safely manipulate the space stone.

Finally saw IW and yes, it was surprisingly enjoyable. Splitting everyone into weird little team-ups, the Hulk’s performance anxiety, the gross body horror of the Nebula scene, Strange owning every scene, and Brolin doing a grand job with the purple chap. And yes, the ending was hilarious. I bet if Hawkguy had been there, he’d have saved the day/universe, though.

The way it was paced was the first time one of these movies really felt like a gigantic comic book crossover.

The fight scene with Thanos and Hulk is so good. He just unloads on him. He moves so crisply as well, bobbing and jabbing likes he's loving Apollo Creed.

Yeah, you get the impression that it's not that Thanos is so much stronger than Hulk, he's just a much better fighter. Hulk fights like a drunken teenager, Thanos is a warrior.

Which may make IW2 interesting. Concept art has Hulk in armor, and Thanos with some kind of halberd looking thing.

There's been so many fake "production art" pictures floating around, I never believe those things until they actually start showing the film. Either that or its just stuff that was come up with and not used. Often artists that didn't have work used will post it as part of their portfolio.

They made one of those Funko Pop figures of Hulk busting out of the Hulkbuster Iron Man suits. Like that was such a last minute change that they couldn't even cancel it in time or they would have been left with a lot of product ready to sell.

When Spider-Man Homecoming was released and Feige said the "8 Years Later" jump was wrong he said they'd eventually put out the real timeline for the movies. Here it is. 1943-1945: Captain America: The First Avenger 2010: Iron Man 2011: Iron Man 2, The Incredible Hulk, Thor 2012: The Avengers, Iron Man 3 2013: Thor: The Dark World 2014: Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Guardians of the Galaxy, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 2015: Avengers: Age of Ultron, Ant-Man 2016: Captain America: Civil War, Spider-Man: Homecoming 2016 through to 2017: Doctor Strange 2017: Black Panther, Thor: Ragnarok, Avengers: Infinity War

New trailer for Aquaman. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-6CSVkAQZw This looks so bad, but on such a grand scale. Do you remember that Twitch streamer who lit a match, burned himself, put the match in a trash bag, the trash bag caught on fire so he put it in a cardboard box, and things just kept escalating and the more he tried to fix it, the worse the fire got until he burned his house down? That's what I think of when I see this trailer. Jamesman fucked around with this message at 18:53 on Nov 19, 2018 |
