Well I kind of see why they didn't do carnage in the first one because once you do him, what the fuck do you do from there? Venom doesn't exactly have a robust rogues gallery.

There's Knull, but you couldn't really do him justice unless it was in the MCU

Ditto.... it came on one streaming service and I thought "I should watch this".... now I think it is on Netflix as well and still just never put it on....

I will always maintain that Crispin Glover was born to play Kletus Kassidy.

Of course, I also thought that Heather Locklear was born to play Emma Frost and look where that got me.

drave 05-11-2021 08:35 AM

Do they have to make it so funny? Is that the thing to do with these movies now? I don't feel like Venom is supposed to be funny, but I could be way off here.

There's also what does Sony have the rights to use. Most of Venom's rogues come from Spider-Man's.

There's always been a little bit of humor even going back to his first mini series. Probably not as much as these movies, but as long as the majority of the movie takes the subject matter seriously, I'm okay with it.

Read a few Eternals series and they were freaking boring.... did they "get interesting" sometime after I stopped reading Marvel?

Also... Richard Madden looks pretty much exactly like Sebastian Stan.

Destor 05-24-2021 01:14 PM

This was always a ballsy propertyto adapt because the source material is pretty weak. my curiosity in this movie is to see why they chose it at all. it has to be an indicator of what theyre looking to do long term. a piece they need to transition into whatever comes next.

Fignuts 05-24-2021 02:22 PM

Trailer doesn't tell us much. A little worried about the sheer amount of new characters it's introducing. We saw how that worked out in x-men apocalypse.

Hoping for an appearance by the celestials.

Lock Jaw 05-24-2021 02:28 PM

Get an "Inhumans" vibe from it. Hopefully it turns out better than that did.

Destor 05-24-2021 02:28 PM

this has more but Guardians handled a large cast of new characters well so its not entirely uncharted waters at least

Fignuts 05-24-2021 02:49 PM

I tried to get into the Eternals comics a number of times because they're tied to Marvel's cosmic side, which I love, but they're just so uninteresting.

I was never as surprised as other people that Guardians was a success, because the run it was based on, was one of the best reads in comics at the time. There are no great Eternals runs, however, so this is going to be Marvel Studio's biggest test yet.

Lock Jaw 05-24-2021 02:52 PM

Wonder if it being post-Endgame will hurt it too.... Like before, people would go "I gotta go see it they are building up to this massive thing" but now people might be "Meh, they are done. It's over. I have no reason to go see this random movie"

slik 05-24-2021 02:52 PM

I like the teaser...read some plot spoilers on reddit a while back that this teaser seems like could be true.

I think it will be good...shot mostly using natural lighting, very different "look" for cinematography than other Marvel flix

Yeah.... Guardians would have been unknown to mostly everybody too, but at least they had entertaining source material.

Destor 05-24-2021 02:56 PM

@fignuts i agree with that. the mcu in general going forawrd is a huge test. they have no star power really. cap and stark were huge draws.

spidey will revert to sony after this 3 picture deal is up. so he will be gone by phase 5.

Black panther is dead.

star lord can hold his own as a draw. i dunno how long pratt wants to go but they do have him. so thats a plus.

it starts getting scarce from there. i dont think captian marvel is going to have the legs they want her to have. i think a big chunk of the audience who saw the 1st film left very unimpressed

i think the x-men can save it but outside of that... very pivotal moment for them.

will the audience view Avengers 4 as a good point to get off the ride?

My bad

I haven't watched any of the MCU shows on Disney yet. I know Wandavision and Falcon/Soldier are both probably really good but I haven't gotten the vibe I needed to watch them to understand future MCU films. I also think future MCU films won't be as big of hits, seems hard to top the hype/interest Infinity War and Endgame had. I don't think they'll flop by any means but I just don't see them being as big as before.

Lock Jaw 05-24-2021 03:10 PM

Yeah, I think they might have made "enough" fans who will stick with it no matter what and see whatever they are fed (barring several critically panned movies in a row or something), but I think a lot of the more casuals will jump off.

Destor 05-24-2021 03:12 PM

i think wandavision is going to be massive.. i think its how think we are going to get mutants. you can sum up the vitals of falcon/winter soldier in a single sentence. falcon is cap now. thats all you need. its good but its impact is far less.

It's a shame because Captain Marvel could have been a really big deal. I don't even blame the casting, because Brie is a good actress, but the way they had her portray the character was baffling. Carol is meant to have an aggressive, outspoken personality, and it's the exact opposite in the movie.

They do still have Thor, don't forget. Love and Thunder has the potential to be really good, as it's based on, imo, the best Thor run of all time.

I think what they have will still get them through phase 4, but X-Men and FF will make or break phase 5 and beyond.

Lock Jaw 05-24-2021 03:17 PM

WandaVision was slower and more drawn-out to watch I think, but feel like it definitely "mattered" more and will have more "long term" repercussions seen in the movies.

While Falcon/Winter Soldier I think I definitely enjoyed watching more, but did feel more like just another typical Marvel movie (which really have all become just, "yeah, that was entertaining and good but I have no desire to ever watch it again")

slik 05-24-2021 03:18 PM

I think FF being done by the same director as the Tom Holland spidey movies is promising. Thor: Love and Thunder I'm really looking forward to. I'm personally really interested in Eternals since I think it will be really good but after that comes out Love & Thunder is the next MCU film I'm most excited for.

It's honestly hard to say after all the unexpected success stories they've had. Hell, the whole thing started with a hero that most people had only heard about, if they knew him at all.

I think building towards Galactus as a phase 6 villain could get casuals just as invested as they did towards Thanos.

i love thor. he's my 2nd fav hero behind spidey. but his films have not been draws. im ultra hyped for thor 4 and i think thor 3 won over a lot of people but until he starts pulling bigger numbers i dont think its fair to count him in the "big star" camp. he could become far more. i hope he does. but thor 1 and thor 2...nearly flops. thor 2 is considered by many to be the worst mcu film (rediculous because its objectively The Incredible Hulk [Ed Norton])

Really liked the second Ant-Man and third Thor movies. That being said, haven't watched them since the theater and don't really feel a pressing urge to rewatch them. Same with a lot of Marvel movies. They have become more like... dunno... disposable entertainment. One and done.

We're also possibly getting a Thunderbolts movie, based on how Falcon/WS panned out.

Hulk beats out Dark World for me, just because the villains are better and the romantic story between Bruce and Betty is done better than Thor and Jane. Otherwise, yeah, they're both equally low.

I think Thor 4 will be the best one yet based on how well 3 did critically. People know not to sleep on it now.

Lock Jaw 05-24-2021 03:32 PM

Yeah.... haven't rewatched a non-Avengers movie since before Doctor Strange. Infinity War I rewatched before Endgame came out... and Endgame I rewatched and was like... "you know, without the thrill of the event of seeing it for the first time this is quite long and tedious. What am I doing?"

Tim Roth was good in Hulk but I'll never not swoon for Nataly Portman. id simp for anything she does ever.

It really had nothing to do with her performance, as she's Natalie fucking Portman, of course she did the best job anyone could. It was more how the characters were written and the scenes they were in which left me with that impression. Which isn't to say they were bad, just that Hulk did it a little better imo.

Destor 05-24-2021 03:40 PM

her role in 2 felt forced. like she was shoe horned into a script 1 month out from production

Destor 05-25-2021 08:41 AM

conversely id had prefered a recast for black panther

Fignuts 05-25-2021 09:20 AM

Eh I didn't mind the War Machine recasting because he's a supporting character, who doesn't require that much personality to play, but Black Panther is another story. A major character with a great performance behind it. I don't think I would have liked a recasting. Shuri taking over works just fine for me.

Lock Jaw 05-25-2021 09:37 AM

Also would have preferred a recast. Feel like the best way to "honour" Chadwick is to continue on telling the best possible stories and continuing to make T'Challa a household name. Yeah, Shuri was Black Panther in the comics for a bit..... but there's a reason why the classic characters always come back even if someone else takes up the mantle for a bit.

M-A-G 05-25-2021 09:41 AM

The problem with Shuri taking over is what theme do you explore with the story? Do you do the "new ruler needs to learn how to be a ruler" thing? It makes sense, sure, but that was kind of already hit on with the first movie and it would feel like we're just going over the same territory. They could ignore the elephant in the room flat out and just go all in but that's a pretty big elephant to not address. Needless to say, what you should take away from all of this is fuck cancer in all its forms.

absolutely agree. moreover we lost a great actor and the response is we also lost a great character. a character who not only deserves to shine for the strength of the character alone (probably a top 10 character for me) but theres also what he represents for all the little black boys in the world. a character who wasnt repurposed to be black to fit a quota or to be woke token representation but an original property thats theirs and no one elses. and a character that shines just as brightly as any other character not because he's black but because he's just a great character that happens to be black.

Chadwicks death was a tragedy but the response, in an effort to honor him, is a travesty.

Destor 05-25-2021 12:30 PM

we're already mourning Chadwick. its a shame we have to mourn T'Challa too

Lock Jaw 05-25-2021 02:29 PM

Maybe don't kill T'Challa off, but they can have him "missing" for a movie, then next time they can bring him back recast

Has nice animation but like I've said before I'm not a fan of alternate reality stories.

Each episode should just end mid-way through when the TVA comes in and resets everything

Which is why this series is kinda moot anyway. Seems like some weird way to get some fanfic stuff on-screen, I dunno. I don't follow closely enough but had the same thought as you, Lock from Jawington.

Although with the TVA living outside of the normal constraints of spacetime, is One-Above-All able to stop this shite too?

Sad that Lock Jaw never replied :(

A man with great knowledge, nay Truly Great knowledge on the comics and I asked a genuine question.

To this question? Dunno Marvel as well.... but if as the name implies they are above all I imagine they could do anything....

That's what the What if series has always been. It's not meant to be taken too seriously.

The TVA is pretty much fucked after the Loki finale. The one above all is dumb and hopefully is never introduced in the mcu.

Aren't we, the paying consumers, the One-Above-All? :shifty:

Oooh, now I wanna watch Loki. Intrigued.


One-Above-All definitely dumb and would wreck the past two decades of the MCU. Would be a suicide pill.

So I guess with Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings that ends my streak of staying in the comfort of my own home since Disney isn't doing Premier Access. I actually enjoyed the time away from the theater. I hate going when there's a crowd and the privacy of watching things on my laptop was boss as fuck. Nothing personal against the people who would be with me in the theaters but, you know, I fucking hate you all. :)

I get you. I went to see Black Widow last week and it was great being back in front of the Big Screen BUT I was sat next to a guy breathing incredibly noisily through his nose and it was SO distracting. I did find myself thinking “I could have watched this at home…”.

drave 08-02-2021 09:57 AM

The viewing experience of damn near anything is better at home than live. Football especially gets me here.

I love Lucas Oil Stadium and all, but the seats are shitty, you're packed in there like a clown car and the aforementioned grossness of others. Just... no thanks. I can get a much better view of the action at home.

Fignuts 08-02-2021 12:18 PM

Not rasslin' though. Rasslin' is always better live.

drave 08-02-2021 01:45 PM

Indeed.


Always surprises me when I used to get "lower level" seats just how close they were. Arena always looks bigger on TV than it really is. Was usually within the first 10 rows of the lower level.


Remember when Fink was still with the "E" and hollering out to him "Fink is THE MAN, WOOOOO!!!" and getting a good laugh and acknowledgement out of him.
