Shinjobi posted:Not really, even people who didn't watch the series felt she was the best part of the movie. The best part of the movie is when the cats eat everyone. That's the only par that really works. It was set up extensively beforehand, and they really go all out on it. Not like that loving singing planet, where they were clearly uncomfortable with the idea and worried about looking silly so they sped through it as quick as possible

It still boggles my mind that Captain Marvel ends with Captain Marvel saying "I'm going to go gently caress up the Kree because they're bad guys!" And then like 30 minutes into Captain Marvel 2 we discover through flashback that she already did it off screen between movies. And it's not a minor thing, she went and destroyed the computer that ran their society, boiled their oceans, destroyed their atmosphere, and extinguished their sun. And the entire plot of Captain Marvel 2 is about Kree survivors trying to save their world after Captain Marvel destroyed it off screen between movies. These late era Marvel movies are something else, man

Honestly even the title "Madame Web" is a problem. Like in a world where Hollywood execs didn't greenlight literally every comic book movie, there's no way they release a movie with such a lame title. It just sounds stupid. I know it's the character's name but there's no rule saying you can't title it something else. Pull a "Tangled" or something.

Why don't they just do a completely new universe every five years with comic books? That way you don't have decades of old, bizarre stories adversely effecting what stories you can tell now, and the super nerds would be able to learn the whole universe inside and out without having to read 80+ years worth of old books. It's just more humane to the customers.

In the end she decides to reignite their sun for them because her friend tells her to. Luckily by that point they had already stolen another planets entire atmosphere so they had an atmosphere, and another planets oceans so they had oceans. So Captain Marvel destroyed one planet, but made it up to them and her balance at the end was only -2 planets. This gets basically no focus at all in the movie and the last shot of that plotline is the Kree happily basking in the light of their reignited sun, so Captain Marvel definitely saved the day

Is his cum sufficiently radioactive to kill after one exposure? I figured you'd need repeated exposures of radioactive Spidey-spunk to get cancer from it.

It set up a future in which the three could have become a team of Spider-Women under the guiding eye of Johnson’s Cassie Webb. Now that’s not going to happen." "We're betting it all on Kraven!

quote:So Madame Web — directed and co-written by S.J. Clarkson and starring Johnson as a New York paramedic who develops psychic powers — seemingly took a wise approach: When there are capes and cowls on every metropolis corner, doesn’t it make sense to avoid the usual tropes and try for a more grounded-feeling suspense thriller with low-key charm? And moreover, make a superhero movie for women and young girls? This is amazing. Women aren't ready for our serious grounded movie. Thank you studio execs for your wisdom

It's just more humane to the customers. But I suppose a problem with any sort of 5-year plan is that you're always going to end up with creators and companies who aren't ready to give up the status quo or who want to keep recycling the same things over and over. Comics are also pretty decompressed anymore, so a 5 year reboot would probably only give us about 6-10 storylines before a reboot, as opposed to the 70s-80s that were doing 1-2 issue storylines monthly. That's fine if editorial/creative has a good arc with closure planned or you're using the comics as a proving ground for movie/TV series content.

We need more grounded in reality stuff for comic book prequel adaptations. This Fall on CW: Dark Night Ahead: The adventures of 17-24yo Bruce Wayne as he travels the world, learning the skills he'll eventually use as Batman. He never actually becomes Batman in the series. Green: The story of reckless, rookie Airman Hal Jordan has he struggles his way through the Air Force. He never gets the GL Ring. Paradise Lost: Teen Diana is forced to wander man's world after offending the gods with her hubris. Never puts on a WW costume or calls herself that. Stone: 14yo Vic Stone rebels against his nerd parents by taking up sports while keeping a 4.0 average. Never becomes a robotguy. On ABC: Summers in Alaska: A family comedy about the Summers family raising two young boys and working at a family charter plane business. No use of mutant powers at all. The Bugle: A newsroom drama of a spitfire reporter named J. J. Jameson as a young man. No spider-man. Stretching the Budget: Another family comedy, this one about a down-on-their-luck single mom of a teen girl and a brat kid having to rent out rooms in their home to some nerd and an Air Force reservist.

It's about an Ice Cream Man named Rick who is also a demigod of chaos and misery. It leans into surrealism now and then.
