Zemo's entire plan would've fallen apart phenomenally if Bucky took a bullet to the brain at any point before he was able to interrogate him, wouldn't it

It's completely insane that we still haven't had a film Brainiac, but we've had Luthor 4 separate times.

Do both; make Luthoriac the villain of Justice League 2: Batman Boogaloo

Namor would be loving amazing. but I dunno if they could just do that.

I like the Idea of White Wolf. T'Challa's adopted brother.

It would be rehashing Thor(a bunch), but T'Challa was just put in charge and claimed the title of King, would everyone in Wakanda back him being king? Mix in the Namor Illuminati story beats with His brother or actually hell ignore white wolf and just use Shuri. Have the constituents find out that T'Challa is hiding and harboring the dude who was responsible for T'Chaka's death. And trying to find a way to heal him.

Boom Political intrigue which always make for the best Black Panther stories.

Didn't Zemo do it

E: I guess there wasn't conclusive proof not counting the full confession given privately, but considering the cell he was in the government sure believed it!

Well Robin has pretty much never been written well outside of comic books. Even Dick on B:TAS wasn't well done outside of his origin story. Tim on TNBA was a lot better, he got a few great episodes. And he was unambiguously a little kid.

Reality slams on Tim really, really hard in RotJ, though

The movie should have sidestepped all of this by having superman beat the crap out of Batman and rip off his dumb robot suit. They become friends after superman refuses to kill Batman and explains Luthors plans to him.

It's not Superman vs. Batman.

Kylo according to their marketing and merchandising

Star Wars is a franchise primarily targeted to children

The guy with the cool mask and the laser sword is probably going to be the most marketable to children

I liked what they did with Zemo. The comic version isn't super well known by most people so it's nice that they went for something different.

My biggest problem with the film was the lack of mention during the scene where Ross shows that video about how many people they saved in NYC by preventing its destruction. Or how if they hadn't been in Sokovia the entire continent or more would have been wiped out.

And yes, the pro-Accord side leaves out that SHIELD, who was supposed to regulate the Avengers and others, was infiltrated for decades by HYDRA.

Tony was directly responsible for Sokovia, though, if the Avengers weren't a thing that whole incident would never have happened

Seriously, stop trying to make Aquaman a badass, it's never going to work.

Aside from that the trailer was pretty decent, but I'm not getting any hopes up for a movie with Zack Snyder at the helm.

Make him a bombastic goof that could take out armies, IMO

I do not get wanting to play Carnage

Carnage is just so one note. He's like a flatter, less interesting Joker (Note to self: Jared Leto for Carnage? Yes. Jared Leto for Carnage.)

He thinks he's funny, but he's not
He thinks he's clever, but he's not
The only song he knows is "Kill 'Em All", and it's stuck on repeat.

He doesn't even have that "Dark reflection of the hero" that so many other bad guys get - He's an off-brand knock-off of that guy. A copy of a copy. And worse in every way.

He has a cool colour scheme and his hand turns into an axe I don't think this one's too tough.

Holy poo poo, did you really say this?

That's extremely loving awful. "Well, we know they'll never make a film about the black kids, so why not just give all his stuff to the white kid."

They're not going to make a Spider-man film that's not about Peter Parker.

And by the time I'm proven wrong about this (for what it's worth I would like to be), most of this thread will be dead from old age.

There was a rumor about that earlier this year but it was never backed up unless I missed something new.


The CGI for the Vulture is probably way early on and they don't have a lot of scenes they can use yet.

On that note, it looked like they reused the helicopter jump shot in the trailer? Did I hallucinate that?

The Titans design has a kind of Fischer Price look which works for that show but wouldn't elsewhere.

You gotta give him more of a chance than seeing him say one line and saying he had no charisma. I thought it was a good read, personally.

That's a fair criticism but on the other hand having half a head of hair looks awful

Studio execs understand the Marvel cinematic universe is making mad bank without understanding that they developed it over years.

On the other hand Batman being in it guarantees they'll make boatloads regardless so I don't know that they really care.
