Im2 had the problem of setting up the [element] poison as a major thing and then just magically solving the problem in a montage and never discussing it.

Im3 main issue for me was the ptsd thing where everybody is rightfully making GBS threads on Tony because all he does to placate himself is build more suits and when the time comes to fully psychologically recover from that (even though afaik that's totally not how ptsd works and it's making GBS threads on people who actually have it to imply that it is) he...repairs his suit. Case closed. Even though it had been discussed repeatedly that that was not the solution. And then avengers 2 crapped all over what character development had taken place.

I watched bvs ultimate yesterday and it was decent. My first time seeing it so i don't know what was in the theatrical cut and what wasn't but it was already hanging by a thread so taking anything out would've been terrible i can tell. Affleck was cool, fishburne was a dick the whole movie, Superman having existential angst was kinda dumb but at the same time this is a time when he's just getting started i guess and he hasn't really gotten to the point where he just has to say gently caress the haters yet, Lois was alright but honestly it felt like her story was there just because they had a big name for the role and had to give her something to do, wonder woman was cool and I'll watch that movie.

Superman's origin is pretty famous too, but that didn't stop Morrison devoting the first page (and just the first page) of rear end to it.

It introduces a main character, sets up the tone of the film, is directly relevant to a later plot point ("Martha") and looks good doing it. It's the kind of scene the movie needed more of, not less.

It's funny you mention that cuz when he said Martha instead of just mom I had to pause the movie cuz I was groaning so hard. So incredibly dumb. Like no one calls their mom by their first name. So if I could change that and excise a completely useless scene at the same time that's just two birds with one stone.

Murdered Waynes doesn't even set up his stupid "My parents taught me you have to batter the world for things to make sense" speech at the end. Your idiot dad rushed a mugger that had a gun pointed at. What the gently caress did he think was going to happen?
It sets up the idiocy of Bruce running into a situation but I'm pretty sure the 2 hours leading up to the fight does that well enough.

I guess I should ask about this: in the comics does Thomas try to take the gun from Joe chill or not? The Nolan series made it explicit that he did not whereas bvs shows that he does. I know I know this isn't the Nolan Batman but it felt like a weird thing to change.

I would totally be down for a ms marvel movie, but it would probably have to be outside the main mcu like the netflix series are

Having no idea what guardians was before the movie I really enjoyed it. I thought the characters were surprisingly likable, and the visual effects looked pretty good in imax. The thanos stuff didn't really bother me, although that does remind me I need to look into what the good thanos stories are.

I think having Janet in flashbacks as Hank sees the legacy of ant man and the wasp being fulfilled by Scott and his daughter might work but i dunno how they would work actually bringing her back from like 20 years in the microverse or the quantum realm of whatever term they used in the movie

It was either let her try or guaranteed death of dozens at least in the marketplace. A total no win situation. Forcing responsibility on her for that is dumb.

I'm guessing no one knows Stark is behind ultron save for the avengers because you'd think after that the govt wouldn't let him near a computer ever again if they're putting the screws to Wanda that hard.

Another thing is that wakanda wanted the clamp down on the avengers after this incident but i guess didn't mind the hulk and iron man wrecking a downtown area in aou i guess?

Maybe DC is hoping that by externalizing his method acting instead of internalizing it like ledger did, that leto won't end up committing suicide and they can make a sequel. Either way now the joker role has a stigma that isn't gonna go away soon

He sounds like a total loving rear end in a top hat though and I can't believe anyone put up with that poo poo

WW is not bulletproof, correct? That's why their accentuating the fact thatball her armor is blocking the shots?
