[Movie/TV/Comic] Marvel Cinematic Universe: A place to talk all things Marvel

[det]

What if... ? First look

Reminds me of the style of WoW cutscenes. A style I actually like. Nicely done.

Overall however - I am think I am done with Marvel (and superheroes - except The Boys). Endgame closed it off nicely, Spiderverse was awesome and the only films that still peek my interest are Guardians 3 and possibly Deadpool 3.

We're going be watching the MCU in our retirement homes. Missing the spiders.

[The Council]

is that a fantastic four logo i see?

[Daemos daemonium]

No ghost rider mega lame. Other then blade I’ll likely skip all of these in theatres (If were back to theatres by then) As I Can’t say I care about any of the legacy characters like ms marvel and don’t care about events given how far every thing is from 616.

Yes, rererereboot confirmed

Not even sure how many of these are movies for theater anyway. I'm no 616 loyalist, so long as it's a good story, but at the rate they're going all the stuff blends together anyway, so not a big endorsement there either. So yeah, I'll watch stuff when I get to it, but I got off the hype train years ago, riding those rails are for the young 'uns.

I love it. Will there be some shit with it? Probably... but with marvel i rather have quantity pew pew boooooom... because quality and superhero movies don't go hand in hand well most of the time (Don't say Nolan Batman... this is not really a superhero movie for me... no super anywhere in it. Just a few VERY athletic people.).
I like stupid fun with the occasional suprise like GotG or Winter Soldier.

Ya I was pretty much done with being excited with the MCU after homecoming was all about Ironman instead of spidey.
Really only blade interest me but if they don’t get snipes back it will likely be a let down.

The only thing that could really get me excited at this point would be a good ghost rider movie with either Danny or Johnny and no Nicholas cage.

[The Council]

Yes, rererereboot confirmed

thats cool.
shame there is no sign of X-men yet

Bold of you to assume there will be theaters to get back into after 3 years of lockdown. No business can survive with no income.

I think Disney and WB will continue to due the simultaneous release on stream platforms even if customers have to pay a little more to stream the movie at release. Things were getting pulled out of theaters fast EXCEPT huge blockbusters before the lockdowns. Disney is also embracing shows/limited runs over movies. With the Lucasfilm stagecrafts (super advanced green screen technology) they will be able to shoot shows a lot faster. It's what they use for Mandalorian without having to go all over the world or use massive back lots. Post production takes up most of their time and they found a way to cut that time down by a lot.

Local cinema is showing Monster Hunter this Friday. And I shall indulge.
As for the mcu, I left that trainwreck a while back. The movies aren't bad when kept at a human level. (Re; Antman)
But further than that it's all about bringing the shit down to our "size," to level the playing field so humans can play.

It was already an interesting time for theaters, and it's hard to judge how much the large companies will survive given their overhead.

Disney was already squeezing theaters, when they come back they might find the deal has been altered again.

[Orby]

I am kind of done now with Super Hero movies. Endgame was the perfect ending to the MCU and should have stayed that way. Its exhausting to keep going

Also 'Disney's' Blade, lol, no thanks


I'd rather go back to reading comics again xD

[eschatological]

Early WandaVision reviews are coming out. They seem to go along the lines of "Strange, but good." Apparently fairly funny?

Paul Bettany and Olsen are good enough actors that them being in a TV series seems like a big get, and worthy of tuning in for the acting alone.

[Kyphael]

Next Friday. I can't wait. Apparently most reviews are based on viewings of the first 3 episodes, and it takes a bit for the action to get going but it's risky, yet good, innovative story-telling.

[RobertoCarlos]

innovative story-telling.

You would hope so with dozens of shows coming out.

But what is innovative for super heroes? Adding a different genre to the cake like Legion or new mutants already did and this seems to be along that vein. Or maybe another decade hop? Like the black and white of the 50s? Even though X-men decade jump for the hell of it. And Cap Marvel did it, Cap America did it, Wonder Woman did it.

I dont see the innovation is what im saying.

It's supposed to be fairly retro/sitcom in style, almost like Bewitched. Vision and Scarlet Witch playing house, trying to be normal under the watchful gaze of a nosy neighbor (Katherine Hahn). I've heard it described as "creepy" and "somewhat tragic", although I'm guessing the tragedy comes from the viewer's knowledge of what happens to the happy couple.

Mmm I guess if its more 80s/90s sitcom that is SOMETHING.

But I've seen that done before 10 odd years ago on supernatural with the trickster episode.

Actually over 10 years ago, 2009.
