Honestly, I'm not sure which they should go in Black Panther 2. While T'Challa as a character is absolutely important both in and out of universe, at the same time that seems intrinsically tied to Boseman's own performance and I think it'd be extremely difficult to handle recasting him. It'd be like recasting RDJ or Evans, only with the addition of the cultural cachet that he represented on top of that. In other news, it kind of turns out there's a shitload of racism in New Mutants? https://twitter.com/dianandonna/status/1299793644107554817?s=20 (It's a thread). Apparently Storm was supposed to be the villain at one point, too. How did this movie even come to be? I get it's like a time capsule of when it was made, but that was only like 4 years ago.

Alhazred posted:Isn't this like saying that Blade should be in at least three movies before any vampires appear? I'm honestly kinda tired off everything needing a long build up. Blade was fighting vampires from issue one. The Dark Phoenix Saga happened long after Jean had been an X-Men. You need to establish her as her own character before that point.

Wasn't one of her requirements for showing up in Dark Phoenix was to get the guy who did The Last Stand back as writer/director? Maybe that was meant to be a demand that the studio would refuse and let her out.

STAC Goat posted:That would be my hope for it. I'm not too bothered by people saying it starts bad since I suspect if its ANY good it will be in a second half "twist" of embracing the demonic/horror stuff. But I've got pretty low expectations for it. Hulu's Marvel stuff hasn't been great and its basically just some weird thing that survived the old MCU shift into the new one. Hey, Runaways is...Runaways, but Cloak & Dagger is great. Although yeah, not exactly optimistic about Helstrom.

FlamingLiberal posted:This series comes off like those older movies and series that almost seemed embarrassed of the source material. I thought we had moved past that with superhero stuff but I guess not. It's especially weird, considering that even the Hulu stuff had moved past that point, given that the latter seasons of Runaways (and all of Cloak & Dagger) had mystical elements as key plot elements.

You know now I think about it, No Way Home kind of seems to be taking cues from JMS' issue #500 story, only with Peter getting bounced round the Multiverse instead of through his own timeline.

Regarding the provenance of the 10 rings: it could also be setting up for The Eternals, right? Some of the effects for the ring reminded me of the stuff in the Eternals trailer. Maybe Phastos made them at some point in his long life and Wenwu came to possess them. Shang-Chi might have accidentally summoned the Celestials. Also is it me or do you guys think that Ta Lo is in the same dimension as K'un-L'un? Also I like how they leave it open about whether Shang & Katy get together. I was expecting it to happen but they just had her taking his arm at the end. I respect that they're leaving it open. I think they had good chemistry. And we got to learn a whole lot more about Wong's inner life, apparently being sparring buddies with the Abomination and down for some karaoke. We should all be more like Wong. Also, Katy's a better Hawkeye than Clint, I'm just going to say it.

Aphrodite posted:"Oh, that's where I left those." Actually now I think about it we saw Phastos looking distraught in some ruins in the trailer didn't we? And the rings gave Wenwu immortality. Maybe Phastos made them for his mortal lover so the two of them could be together forever, but things went awry and he (the lover) died and the rings were taken.

Aphrodite posted:I think getting rid of the rings quickly would be a good idea, because Shang Chi is much cooler as a guy who's so good at kung fu he can hang with superpowered heroes. I mean given what they represent to him (his dad turning his back on his children in the name of power after his wife's death), I'm pretty sure Shang Chi's not going to be using the rings himself unless it's an absolute emergency. Maybe he'll leave them with Wong until they figure out their whole deal. I'm just kind of hoping we get an unannounced Tony Leung cameo in Eternals at this point, since even if the rings have nothing to do with them he's one of the only characters who could conceivably interact with them over their long history (I mean there's what, the Ancient One and the Asgardians?). And I want more Xu Wenwu.

It's one of those things you just have to not think about too much Except that the botched spell was tearing reality several new ones at that very moment so there wasn't time for nuance.

Aphrodite posted:I mean notably Electro never found out Peter was Spider-Man in ASM2. He only finds out in No Way Home. It's the whole reason for the Miles joke. He does talk about downloading a bunch of data right as he become energy, and he heard Peter call to Gwen by name, so maybe he pieced it together right at the very end. Maybe he was talking about thinking that Spider-Man was black, not knowing he was Peter Parker. I mean, there's also the possibility he didn't know Peter was white (in his universe) until he took his mask off at the end.

Aphrodite posted:The one bit of executive meddling we do know about Spider-Verse (it's even on the wikipedia page for it) was positive. One exec fought to keep them from cutting down Gwen's role significantly. Wasn't there also an exec who fought against putting Miles & Gwen together romantically, arguing that if it's going to happen it should be after they know each other for more than 1 movie. Which, honestly makes sense.

I'm surprised nobody has said anything about the trans representation with Axl. I don't know if they got a trans actor, but that's definitely what the were going for, right? Because the last I checked, Astrid was a girl's name. It sweet they had Heimdall recognise his son's gender identity in the post-credits scene.
