Dacap: Jul 8, 2008; I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.

Yeah, contracts usually prevent people from leaving even if it's a better role. Remember how Emily Blunt was cast as Black Widow in Iron Man II and had to leave because she was contractually obligated to do that Jack Black Gulliver's Travels movie.

I'll admit I'm not knowledgeable about this kind of stuff, but quitting a role on an MCU blockbuster, even a minor one, for a Netflix series? Is that really worth it?

There's also likely no hurt feelings from Marvel. A lot of times actors might have pending commitments and they're signed on with the knowledge that they might have to leave.

The story didn't get much traction and was mostly rumors but Fox tried to exercise Chris Evans Fantastic Four #3 option to keep him from being Captain America.

Having seen BP for a 4th time, the one part of the film that never fails to get a reaction is when Killmonger shows up in the throne room to challenge T'Challa. He said he didn't need weeks, he didn't need the whole country, he just needed his fade now. Whipped T'Challa's rear end too.

I just love that movie so much, I can't help but to keep watching it. Every time I do, I find something new to love about it.

I'm not worried about the director, but what WB/DC would demand from the movie. I can see them limiting what she can do, like "we can't have Darksied yet, we are saving him for a later movie, so you can have....Baron Wunderbar and Kalibak as villains. Orion? We can't use him yet, we have plans down the road, but you can have Lightray and Big Bear. Hell, why not all the Tomorrow People!"

I hope I'm wrong, but I don't have a lot of trust in DC, as Wonder Woman still seems like an aberration.

So there's a teaser trailer for an Infinity War trailer that will come out tomorrow

Which, frankly, is not big new, everyone in this subforum will watch that regardless of what they pull, but we also got a little snippet from the Russos that the following movie that will be the most connected to Avengers 3 will be _____________________________________________________Ant-Man & The Wasp_________________________________

Should I even have spoiled that? It's such a silly little thing. Anyway, there's that, everyone get hype for tomorrow!

It is. She plays the main character, Nola Darling.

Also I mean, it's Spike Lee series that's probably paying her more and violating your contract is a big deal. Especially if you're a black woman, and one with no star power at that.

She's had a decent amount of award talk surrounding her role in She's Gotta Have It and sometimes you just want that statue. She's never gonna get that much notice playing second fiddle, even if it's in a Marvel movie. Even a nomination helps get her to name her next role where ever she wants.

I hope so, or they don't have some clause in the contract saying that they can change whatever they want. Like i have zero faith in WB/DC to do anything less than, at best, the most bland choices.

That's kinda cool, because everything we've seen so far hasn't even given a hint of that. I'm hoping the trailer tomorrow will actually be new stuff, and not just the same stuff we've seen already in the teasers.

I know it's meant to be a heroic moment but we know Cap's not getting out alive of that solo encounter with Thanos, right? So they're definitely eliminating the big stars in this one.

I want to see Cap go toe to toe with Thanos. man, that looked like it would be the climax of the movie. So I can totally see this ending with Cap dying, and then some Time Stone fuckery to send it back to Avengers 1? didn't Evans also film for Avengers 4?

I was kind of tempering my interest just to keep myself from getting too hype but holy poo poo that was an incredible trailer

It's not that I'm not enjoying it, but MCU's Starlord is just Chris Pratt being Chris Pratt. He could've been just winging it for 3 movies and no one would notice.

That one shot of Cap and BP in the Wakandan vehicle has some really dodgy compositing, but it's not like that's a stranger to this franchise at this point.

It's not a huge surprise but when Thanos is fighting Cap he's already got at least the Space Stone (from Loki) and the Power Stone (from the Nova Corp).

I was going to ask who that was. If you freeze it when Thanos talks about half of humanity dying you can get a pretty good shot of the Black Order

Yeah, and they're standing among a ton of dead bodies. That's... unnerving. Guess Thor and Valkyrie will have to repopulate the entire Asgardian race.

Also it looks like in Wakanda, they're analyzing Vision and the Mind Stone.

I really want Infinity War to play out and Thanos wins and half of humanity and all the superheroes are gone and only then do we realize we haven�t seen Ant-Man and it turns out he was tiny the whole time and is consequently the only one left to fix everything. Ant-Man and Wasp will be a flashback/prequel that ends with showing how/why Scott was shrunk the whole time.

Looks like he only has two of the stones at that point. So not sure it would be at the climax of the movie. Unless he gets all 6 at the end and that leads to avengers 4?

And it'd be a neat direction to go since they're both the Avengers' flagships, in and out of the movies.
