Dacap posted:An expansion of the LMD theory I guess. I don't know why people would want him playing lovely, boring Vision when he's a good likable character already. That's basically the point. They want him to be the Vision instead of getting the tired old "beep-boop-beep begin program exe bone Scarlet Witch" Vision that comes back up every time Vision gets torn in half. They want Coulson with superpowers not Vision

jivjov posted:There was a dropped plot point that Thor only had a limited amount of time on earth, but all of that got scrapped and all that's left is Loki's "How much dark energy did the Allfather use to conjure you here?" line. Which is probably going to come up in/trigger the whole Thor 2 dark world thingy. The usual use dark forbidden power unleash dark forbidden power on the world.

They'll just turn it into a running gag in the movie, you know play it like a romantic situational comedy mishap. He's opening wine and "bam!", he'll point at something as she's walking up behind him and "Pow!", he'll fist pump when he cracks pym particles and she'll walk into it "Blammo!" The only cure to Hank Pym not being able to stop hitting his wife is for Hank Pym to not be able to not hit his wife.

Codependent Poster posted:Concerning the ending of Thor 2: Loki likely didn't kill Odin, but locked him up or something. I think we're going to see Loki get bored by ruling Asgard to get him back in action. Although I think that he'll eventually play the role Mephisto played when Marvel does the Infinity Gauntlet in Avengers 3, but wind up on the good side. But I would love to see a Loki movie too. I took a certain moment around when Odin gives his speech about fighting to the last drop of asgardian blood, he stops and looks weak for a moment almost like he's falling asleep. I took that to mean he was still fighting off the Odin sleep from the last movie and Loki could have helped it along magically or exhausted Odin into it in a fight. Or maybe long shot here, Odin went into it willingly after Loki explained Thanos and bringing the Avengers together to defend earth, the ruse is for Asgard's benefit because no one else would trust him.

It's always simpler when they say Magneto just controls metal with his mind and doesn't actually have crap to do with magnetism. Being able to control metal with your brain is broken enough.

Mr. Maltose posted:For all of Chris Claremont's horrible fetishes leaking into comics, he did right by Carol. It speaks volumes that their little plot to sweep Ms. Marvel under the rug and glue it down was so messed up even Clarmont was like "Uh, I need to fix that." Shooter honestly thought he'd done a good job and given her a happy ending that nobody would feel the need to fix.

I think if a Captain Marvel movie makes it into pre-production you'll see WB put a serious rush on the Wonder Woman movie just for PR's sake

teagone posted:600+ million isn't bad. I don't get what the big deal is with writing Batman into the Man of Steel sequel. Is there some significant reason for him being a character in the film that makes it a bad idea that I'm unaware of? And for all we know, Gal Gadot could have a total of 5 minutes of screen time and might not even show up in the actual WW getup. 600+Million isn't bad, but not it's good enough. While the idea itself isn't inherently bad we suffered enough blind executive lead reactions to successful movies like "Harry Potter is a success quick find me a little magic child script, any magical child script!" that people are, probably rightfully, skeptical of the forethought involved.

greatn posted:Surprised they did the infamous heroine butt shot after the criticism they got for the avengers tie in comic cover. Why? The criticism only really gained traction in an ignored portion of an ignored portion of the movie's potential fanbase. Comic fans mean bunk to them and the sliver of feminist comic fans mean even less.

twistedmentat posted:Something I am curious is how Tony will be portrayed in the film. IM3 suggested he would give it up, but I cannot see him giving up being a superhero, its perfect for his ego, even his reduced at the end of the movie. Might be a getting the band back together thing where Tony realizes that he's needed and comes back. I never got a retirement or "I'm out of the game" vibe from Iron Man 3. He blew up the armor's he'd compulsively made to cope with New York and had the shrapnel removed which was a link to guilt driving his heroism giving himself a clean slate where he can be a hero that's not driven by a mix guilt and ego.

twistedmentat posted:It does become tiring hearing people scream "They didn't make Captain America black because RACISM!!!!!!". The reason they don't make white male and black female romantic leads is part of the same ignore the successes only listen to the focus groups corporate mentality that can only think of movies as machines. The focus numbers for a white male lead and black female lead are atrocious because it loses both the conservative and  urban people who were available in the middle of the day and get paid in sandwiches demographics.

They probably are going to use it in the agents of shield show since the lack of another Iron Man means the Ten Rings can fill the evil spies role and have a bit of name recognition.

RyuujinBlueZ posted:My only problem with this is my pet theory on what they'd do with Mandarin is have Trevor come back and re-assume the role, perhaps with the suggestion that he'd been the real mastermind all along playing the other guys for chumps. My favorite theory running around was that there would be a bunch of aim or ten rings member that believed Trevor was playing a long con and would thrust him into an unwanted leadership role and Trevor has to keep playing the Mandarin 24/7 to save his own skin.

Cornwind Evil posted:That, unfortunately, is part of a larger problem that has nothing to do with fiction and everything to do with people; they're going to take away from stuff what they take away and want to take away, and if they don't feel the need to look at other aspects and/or change their minds, then that is that. Something Bill's speech demonstrates, he concentrates on the older interpretation because he identifies with it more then modern interpretations. You simply can't hold an author responsible for interpretations of his work as fiction is essentially chaos incarnate once it encounters a wide audience with disparate interpretations front, left, and center.

Honestly Y is one of those books I read and thought was decent but haven't thought about in years. It never etched out a spot in my brain, the only real memory I have even now is something happening at the end that was a really dumb way to wrap up two characters.

I wouldn't put a Black Widow movie as pie in the sky as Black Panther. She's had lead up roles, has name recognition and isn't named after a black power movement.
