Movies: Marvel Cinematic Universe Discussion - Part 4

[AtlantaWhaler]

I know it's the movies, however:
How is it that in WW1984, Dianna had trouble making a coffee cup disappear, yet with approx. half her power gone is able to make an entire jet go invisible to both sight and radar?

Also in Aquaman-how is it the some Atlantean full bloods are able to breathe air yet others suffocate?

I guess for the same reason team Namor just didn't use the mind control the entire movie and just F everyone up. Movie should have been done in about 25 minutes.

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

Thunderbolts starts production in Atlanta in early June and will be released about a year later.

Yelena Belova, Winter Soldier, Red Guardian, Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, US Agent, Ghost, and Taskmaster.

I didn't realize that this will close out Phase 5.

Also, sounds like the script went through a rewrite. Apparently, the original focused on Yelena and Red Guardian and barely touched on the other characters. Looks like they're wanting equal time for background on each character.

Another thing- why the heck did I put D.C. questions in the Marvel thread?
Why, why, why?

Bad Writing.

I had the displeasure of watching Wonder Women 1984 a little over a month ago for the first time. I thought it was worse than Batman vs. Superman and it might be worse than the first Suicide Squad movie. Patty Jenkins does not know how to write a script for superhero movie.

The Marvels trailer tomorrow.

Looks like an interesting angle to bring the 3 together...but I'm not sure I can stand 2 hours of a teen girl screaming into my ears.

That's not how Kamala was all the time, at least on her show. By the way, thread here: Movies: - The Marvels - November 19th 2023

This just isn't what I want in a superhero movie

I want realism with actual stakes and consequences, not whatever the f*** this is supposed to be

Two things that absolutely are not used in the same context 90% of the time.

Jonathan Majors Has Been Dropped From Several Projects As "Hollywood Wariness Grows"

Though he remains on board as Kang in the MCU (for now), Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania star Jonathan Majors has reportedly been dropped from several other planned projects...

[Bakayoko Ono]

There has to be more to it (pattern of behaviour etc.); dropping a rising star client like him due to these allegations alone would seem like an overreaction, no?

[barriers]

Not someone I had pictured but I certainly don't hate it.

 

[Hockey 4 everyone]

i would be thrilled with adam driver as reed richards. i think he would do an excellent job capturing the complicated character that is reed richard of the comics. i would MUCH prefer him over john krasinski.

Yeah he’s done


All of his pictures look like he just got busted

 

[BertCorbeau]

That's really disappointing, I was really enjoying his portrayal of Kang .. they you hear garbage human being behaviour like this.

It sucks he did an amazing job on quantum Ania

 

[beowulf]

Hey as much as I liked him as Kang, if he is indeed guilty of this there is no excuse to keep him on.

Amid new allegations, Jonathan Majors’ attorney cites video taken just after alleged attack

Amid new allegations, Jonathan Majors' lawyer files evidence that suggests the woman who accused him of assault was unscathed and at a nightclub after he allegedly hurt her.

Also, from the Variety article:

Disney has the added wrinkle in that the alleged victim in the Manhattan incident also worked on this year’s “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” a film in which Majors was third-billed as Kang the Conqueror.

A Disney spokesperson declined comment.

This would explain Disney's silence on the matter as they would be doing their own investigations.

At least the MCU has established that variants can look different across multi-verses

I was thinking that also the only thing that sucks is we saw the gathering of Kangs at the end of Ant-Man and they all looked like him.

 

[RandV]

Yes there is precedence, for example:

That's all you gotta do for Kang in the MCU.
