BrianWilly posted:Right like, if all the fans keep going "omg Kang is so great, he's the best part of the MCU" like they're doing now, what are the chances that the writers just cut out the extra stuffing of "Kang was named for Mr. Fantastic's dad thanks to timey wimey nonsense" and instead tie Reed to him directly instead of indirectly? If nothing else it would be an unexpected hook for the FF story which, at the moment, really isn't connected to anything at all in the MCU that we know of. Honestly, they would be better off recognising how good JM is and just making Reed and Kang one and the same. Every version of Reed is evil except the MCU version and they all happen to be called Kang. Reed's story is basically only interesting because he is evil everywhere else so cut the chaff and make him Kang.

FlamingLiberal posted:The suits have been able to grow people that big since at least Civil War, and also in Ant-Man and the Wasp (I forget which came first) Yeah. This doesn't bother me because it's not the suits stretching, it's the pym particles affecting the atoms or some poo poo. It's just a goofy as the suits shrinking really. The helmets coming on and off constantly and the suits being nano-tech was boring though.

Gavok posted:He basically gets four moments. None of the Guardians get to meaningfully contribute to defeating Thanos in the final fight. Instead of giving Captain Marvel a moment fighting him they should of given that to Gamora and Nebula, and if you want to give Starlord a big hero moment you should have him crash the Guardians ship into Thanos's ship to save the day rather than Captain Marvel destroying it. Poor Drax doesn't even get to interact with him. I'm aware this sounds like I'm just trashing Captain Marvel but honestly the Infinity Saga didn't really have much to do with her so give those moments to someone else.

I feel like the Disney + shows would of been better served actually emulating Phase One a bit more strongly and building to their own cross over event. Have the films focus on new characters and the emerging multiverse, move Loki into the films as an end to Phase 4. And have the shows focus on detailing life after the Blip but also on building to Secret Invasion. Have Secret Invasion but the Avengers for the Disney + shows. Bring back Falcon for it, and US Agent. Bring back Ms Marvel and Nu-Vision. Etc. Keep the Disney + shows as their own thing that compliments the films but builds to there own conclusion. Also, start releasing less films, but more sequels. It's stupid that we are meant to invest anything in Shang-Chi when there's going to be close to a decade between his films, and between the first and second there would of been two Avengers films.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:This is probably #7,148 on the "weird things about The Flash" list, but do they actually kill one of the Kryptonians from Man of Steel with a small explosive? It's cute that this Twitter user thinks there any chance Andy Muschietti is still going to be directing any film for DC after The Flash. I know he was announced for the new Batman but I assume it's just a respectful amount of time before they announce he's "stepping down".

Barry Convex posted:fwiw, the significant delay on Cap 4 (which had completed principal photography prior to the strikes, unlike Deadpool 3; Thunderbolts and Blade hadn't even started production, so those delays are less surprising) is allegedly due to poor test screenings, with major reshoots scheduled for next year I'm sure the presence of an IDF superhero is just coincidental.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:More detailed Pedro Pascal/Fantastic 4 casting info: Those backup choices are so loving boring. Good lord. The cast they look to be settling on is pretty good. Pedro is probably worse than Driver but Kirby is better than Stone (for this role). Starting with Galactus is stupid.

Soul Glo posted:Dr. Sleep is pretty close. Super-powered man fighting vampires. The Dead Zone too. Man spends years in a coma, wakes up with the ability to see the future, and uses it to fight an evil Senator due to become an evil President. The SyFy adapation leant even more into the superhero genre too from what I remember.

I think it was the Onion, but one of the parody news sites did a great ongoing 'story' about how the ending of TDZ would play out in our modern political landscape.

It's a shame they aren't keeping her despite them keeping lots of other actors from the DCU (I'll believe this when I see it. I don't actually expect that Amanda Waller show to happen.)

I remember being incredibly disappointed with Scott Pilgrim after being a big fan of Shaun and Hot Fuzz. I just felt the entire thing was an exercise in style over substance. Little did I know it accurately foreshadowed the rest of Wright's output.

So he should look suitable similar to their design + his comic book design I'd imagine.
