The first Avengers movie with Wolverine (and maybe Storm), will gross 2 billion.

Marvels just starting the characters from the 1980s. There's still tons of characters and arcs that haven't been introduced. I imagine in the next 4-5 years nerds will get hyped for Namor, Spider-woman, Mockingbird, Captain Britain, and D-Man.

I've always been hyped for Namor & Mole Man Conquer the Earth

Toby is too old to do anything physical, I don't see why people'd even want him in the new movie. It would be a disappointment.

They were already CG-ing him thinner in Spider-Man 3 because he didn't want to work out, but it's not like Tom Holland isn't an animated character for 90% of all the action scenes already anyway.

No, they just worked out together, and he has been secretly quite ripped for a while but no movie he was in(including justice League) showed it off

They are extremely of their time period, which is late 2000s uber serious no camp allowed edgy boy time where all the women are sexed up prostitutes

It is also, of course, what defined Harley's aesthetic going forward pretty much forever more

Eternals almost put me to sleep. I think the problem is for a movie that sets its stakes at human extinction, there seemed to be only 2 adult human characters in it, and one of them only joined the movie via facetime.

Like, gimme something to care about, not just 10 gods hanging out in pretty outdoor set pieces weeping about humanity for 2 and a half hours. They made humanity such an abstract concept that I didn't really care about Earth by the end, I would've been fine if the space baby hatched and killed us.

Cute framing, but Maguire's situation was failing to maintain the bodyfat percentage expected of the lead of an action film franchise. Kingo, upon encountering a similar expectation, went off on his own assumedly due to emasculation issues.

Of course, this level of expectation is the zero-level background experience of everyday women.

J.K. Simmons felt frumpy and out of shape when he was doing Oz, so he decided to get jacked. And he's been lowkey jacked ever since.

It's so funny though to imagine Zack Snyder forcing 60+ year old JK Simmons to bulk up for his three scenes in a thick jacket

Don't be scared

Jedit posted:

A couple of comments on Doronin's post, spoiler spec for future movies based on the post-credits scenes:

Pip and Eros are probably a link to Guardians 3, not what comes after. They're regular companions of Adam Warlock, who has been teased in both Guardians movies so far.

Blade and Dane Whitman have a connection in comics - they're both members of MI13, the British intelligence agency that handles superpowered, magical and extra-dimensional threats. That latter is certainly going to be a big part of Phases 4 and 5. Every Marvel fan in the UK is now hoping that this is leading up to a Captain Britain movie or TV series. An MI13 series would probably work better, to be honest. But it is to be hoped that it happens, because the amount of gammon piss that will be boiled if a Muslim woman gets to wield Excalibur could fill the oceans of the world.


Likewise spoiler'ing my post...

I hope that's the case. I think adding Pip and Eros to that ensemble would be a ton of fun, especially if he brings an Eternal or two along for the ride. I have incredibly high expectations for what Harry Styles brings to the table there. For a moment I thought it would have been awesome if they cast Glenn Howerton instead, but I think it would have fallen apart as "Dennis is in the MCU," and probably wouldn't have actually worked. But Dennis is basically Starfox, so maybe? Either way, I can't wait to see this version of Eros again.

And I'd poo poo myself if an MI13 show or movie was announced. The whole concept around that was always awesome to me, and if that means getting Captain Britain involved at some point, even better. But I'm with you, I also kind of want to see the ragefest if/when Faiza Hussain picks it up. We know the sword is hanging around the Domo at least, but it would cause an uproar if it came to life in the MCU.

Apparently this was a common thing on OZ after the first season. They all saw themselves in the shower scenes and thought 'poo poo, gotta get in shape'
