Swillkitsch posted:I couldn't name a single character trait that Marvel has invested in Mary Jane worth giving a gently caress about over the years other than the fact that she's Peter's love interest. I mean, I guess if "fiery redhead" is a good enough character thesis for you to defend the concept of her hair color, then the real problem is the fact that there is nothing else about Mary Jane that is worth caring about, basically You are Joe Quesada and I claim my five pounds. OK, seriously. I'm kinda bummed out by this, mainly because I was hoping they'd keep the iconic 'face it Tiger' introduction as the end of the movie or as a post credits scene, whereas it seems she's actually going to be in the movie the whole way through. I'm sure if she is playing MJ she'll do a good job, but godammit they had the perfect chance to pull off one of the best character introductions in comics on the big screen (and Spectacular Spider-Man shows it can be done outside of the page), and they fumbled the ball. The casting is not my problem (although I would be lying if I said it's not going to be something that I will have to adjust to), but I was hoping that they'd actually surprise us with Mary Jane the way Stan Lee & John Romita did back in the 60s. Considering Zendaya is already appearing marketing materials makes that unlikely. Then again I can see how impossible it would be to keep that reveal under wraps.

Honestly I'm not certain that Steranko's Nick Fury wasn't directly inspired by his own life. Riding a motorcycle through a wall shirtless with a pair of huge guns seems like the kind of thing he would do.

Lobok posted:Is Godzilla the only instance in popular fiction where multiple timelines all diverge from a common chapter of the story? Godzilla's mix of timelines shouldn't be confusing to anyone in BSS who is used to DC's reboots or Marvel's mix of 616 and Ultimate but even beyond comics I'm trying to think of stories that are reboots or remakes that still all use one story in the chain as the beginning. I think the Terminator counts, since everything (except Genesys...maybe?) explicitly starts from the original movie (and usually the first two).

site posted:The child's hand in the Logan poster is Laura Also Richard E. Grant is playing Zander Rice (the scientist who was the antagonist of the first X-23 miniseries). Which is kind of a shame since he would have made a great Mr Sinister. I'm wondering how they might tie X-23 into the 'main' movies as the new Wolverine if she's only a kid in the future. I'm guessing Time Travel. (Again).

I wonder if, since the next X-Men movie is going to be set in the 90s, they'll do some kind of spin on the X-Traitor storyline, and Logan is set in the aftermath of that. Then Laura (a few years after Logan) gets sent back in time to stop the traitor (maybe with Deadpool's good buddy, Cable) and hang around with the X-Men of that era and basically replaces Logan.

I'm trying to figure out how they're going to use X-23 after this. Are they going to just go forward in time after Logan where she's Wolverine in that crappy world or will they send her back in time to star in subsequent X-Men movies?

zoux posted:Even though on paper X-23 seems like the kind of character that would suck (From a cartoon! Clone! Teen girl angst! Even MORE Wolverine) she's been used extremely well in pretty much every book I've read her in and honestly she's one of my favorite Marvel characters. From the trailer it looks like they are staying pretty close to the character, I'm glad they're bringing Laura to the movies. I'd even be cool with X-23 solo films if the character takes off in popularity.

It's stuff like signing off on an Emoji Movie that got you into this mess, Sony!

Personally I'm looking forward to Sylvester Stallone, Ving Rhames, Michelle Yeoh &...Miley Cyrus(?) in Space Expendables. Like, considering Stallone has walked away from the Expendables proper, and the star power of that cast, that's got to be something Marvel's gonna go for, right?

Hey Fox, Guardians of the Galaxy is super popular, and X-men has a great set of space assholes in the form of the Starjammers, DO THAT! You can even do Scotts real father and his family we saw in Apocalypse was his adoptive family. Seriously, Disco Space Pirate, sexy skunk lady, robot doctor and a big lizard guy. Have Space Bird Jerks and their crazy Emperor and you got a star wars rip off with X-men. Yeah, but people would be saying 'they're just ripping off Star Wars/Guardians'. Now granted the Starjammers predate the Guardians, but most viewers don't know that.
