I like everyone else in the Black Panther movie but I really do not want to watch a Black Panther movie without the Black Panther in it.FilthyImp posted:Also reminds me about how hosed the Howard>Cheadle recast was. Nobody cared about that though. Terrence Howard sucks.

Recasting the lead in a sequel is usually not received well. At all.

Again I say: I don't want to see a sequel to Black Panther where the main character is not in it. This isn't like comics where we had years and years of stories and the mantle can be passed, we had 1 movie where there was a solid arc that had an ending that lent itself very obviously to further exploration of this central character. Having him die offscreen and having someone else take up the mantle would be absurd in a movie that's meant to be a direct sequel. They can have that happen in the background of an Avengers movie or something, and then after that maybe give this new Panther their own movie. But Black Panther 2 (not featuring Black Panther) would be as interesting as Spider-man Home Again: Spider-man Does Not Appear In This Film.

STAC Goat posted:If it were Ant-Man or Black Widow I'd be inclined to agree. But Black Panther was such a culturally significant film and boon to Marvel/Disney that I can't see them just pushing all of Wakanda to the side. Yeah but the narrative of the movie rested so heavily on T'Challa. There's no good way to go forward without him in a direct sequel, and immediately recasting him would feel crass and weird. The solution they'll probably go with is feature Wakanda prominently in a non-Black Panther movie, where they'll address what happened to him and who will take up the mantle, if anyone. Kinda like what they've been doing with Hulk, where he's still around doing stuff but he no longer gets his own movies. And I'm sorry Shuri fans, but I think M'Baku is like 100 times more likely to be the next Black Panther because he's by far the fan favorite of that movie after T'Challa and Killmonger, and he has as much claim to it by the rules of the movie.

The Russos are pretty open about the fact that no one knew exactly what they were going to do with Thanos until they sat down and wrote infinity war. They just knew they wanted to use him at some point.

Rhyno posted:Sure sure but the cops in the sewers was so goddamned stupid. Yeah everything around that was terrible and terribly shot. Especially since the movie opens with the cops kind of being bad for locking up people with less due process and spend most of the movie antagonizing Batman. Movie should've leaned into cops sucking even more to make Bane's criticisms of the system have more bite (and remind us why Bruce didn't just become a cop).

nemesis_hub posted:I don’t really agree with the idea that Peter should be depicted as a stereotypical nerd. For me Garfield comes closest to my ideal depiction despite the bad movie around him. He should be offbeat, a bit of an outsider, but not pathetically inept or awkward. My ideal Spider-Man movie would be snappy and cool, but not in the cloying, focus tested way where execs try to bandwagon onto stupid teen trends. Peter is a scrawny science nerd, not a skateboarding weirdo with a 200 dollar haircut.

nemesis_hub posted:Why should we cling to an archetype from 1962? Do you think Iron Man movies should be about Elon Musk fighting communists in the jungle? I don't know, maybe because it's the core of the character? I'm not asking for him to dress like that and talk about wheatcakes or go to the hopscotch or whatever, I just think being a shy nerd who gets picked on is a pretty timeless thing, and the interest in science is directly tied to his crime fighting. Bullying still exists, in case you weren't aware, and Spidey's whole thing is being relatable because of his real human problems, dealing with bullying being one of them. Him being some kind of above-it-all outsider just didn't work, and it was one of the many baffling choices in the film.

Fangz posted:I guess I just think back to all the superhero movies ruined by trying to jam in too many villains (i.e. Spiderman 3) and wondering how that would work if you are doing that and also trying to jam in character development for a full superhero team at the same time. If a 41 page comic and 24 minute tv show managed to make the Sinister Six work I don't see why a movie couldn't.

Literally the only problem with superhero movies that have too many villains is the pile of origin stories and conflicting story threads that jumble together, if they are all on the same team and do not get stupid origin stories there is no problem. The lack of imagination in this thread is embarrassing.

This move makes perfect sense to me considering that Disney has spent the last decade slowly absorbing the entire theater infrastructure indirectly and that theaters are probably on their way out covid or not. I'm not really a fan of WB but I don't see this as a bonehead move at all. It's a calculated risk at worst.Endless Mike posted:Good. Maybe theaters can make it worth going to them since they have to compete with not doing that. What's that, jack up the prices on snacks and underpay the staff more to increase the profit margins?
