Rolling Marvel Cinematic Universe thread (+ a poll: Classic or Dud?)

i would've sworn on a bible i included howard in that list; blame the drugs.
cloak and dagger is a good idea, runaways is a good idea. if suicide squad does well (doubtful) i could see a sinister six/dark avengers/MODOK and AIM/Bring on the Bad Guys film greenlit.

suicide squad looks half cool, half dour & leaden & heavy blahhh

i have written a treatment for a featherlight romcom starring modok does anyone have kevin feige's email

(why because he look intersting)

What girl does modok meet cuet

u not know MODAM

I love that she is a carbon copy of MODOK but with lipstick.

I believed that [Hulk] would be in the film, but at the end, it was evident that they needed to reveal that the Hulk did something very significant, and that Marvel wanted to use this in a more upfront [manner]. My character was inserted into the script, but it was later removed. Who knows, maybe Hulk will never return. However, [Marvel] want to keep the revelation of what happened a secret, because it is something truly significant.

^ this sounds like confirmation of World War Hulk to me

don't fuck with the formula!

tbf she has boob armour too to further distinguish her from modok

I would've given her little sticky-up pigtails.

plz tell me at some point they make a MOTOT

mobile organism threatening only toddlers?

awesome

I'm glad they didn't shorten that to BABY DOK.

I didn't read all of Civil War but I feel like that IO9 column is taking an intentional thematic position from the story, namely that both opposing sides were seriously flawed from an ethical standpoint, and is treating it like it was an unintentional mistake that the writers had no idea they were inserting.

Always thought I'd read civil war but turns out it was actually this parody of it.

But yeah that article is kinda silly. It takes the registration thing at face value and compares it to real life policy, as if anything about it makes sense in the context of a superhero comic.

The writers didn't know what to do with the vigilantism conceit underpinning everything that they'd ever written about before so they just kinda ignored it.

chris evans at least changing his pr game to "i love being cap"

“Listen, if Marvel wants me they got me. I’ve never had such a relationship where you have such—I mean look at my resume, I’m used to being on set being like, ‘Ah is this movie gonna be terrible?’ Marvel just can’t stop making great movies, they do it in their sleep. It’s wonderful directors and producers and actors and scripts, and it’s like a playground as an actor.”

I wonder if he'll try "I'll be Cap if you'll let me direct."

What with the Russos, Shane Black, Peyton Reed, James Gunn, Kenneth Branagh and all sorts of folks whose resumes might not point in that direction, sure, why not?

well their resumes point in that direction in that they're actually directors but other than that

Finally saw Avengers 2 the other night. Way worse than the first. Really hope they get rid of Iron Man soon cos it was really a stretch watching how stupid Tony Stark was during that whole movie. And yes the way they wrote Black Widow was pretty lame. New characters are stupid too, Scarlet Witch can do pretty much whatever the scene calls for by flicking her wrists dramatically. James Spader was really the only likable character in the film.

Scarlet Witch can do pretty much whatever the scene calls for by flicking her wrists dramatically

it's clear you've never read the comics

su ot kcab teg dna scimoc eht daer

zatanna humor never gets old imo

Also, Iron Man being a super-smart dude doing super-stupid things that bite him and others in the ass is kinda just Iron Man being Iron Man.

I never read Scarlet Witch comics that's true. If I have to read the comics in order to get the movie then the movie has failed imo.

If I ever get a time machine I will make sure to go back and tell my younger self to cancel the multiple X-Men subscriptions and broaden my comic portfolio so I can understand what is going on in 20 years.

well no, it's just that "Scarlet Witch can do pretty much whatever the scene calls for by flicking her wrists dramatically" is kind of the definition of how Scarlet Witch has been written since her inception, which makes it sound like the movie was pretty faithful to how everyone has ever interpreted the character

the house of m storyline in the 2000's is basically about how scarlet witch gets rid of an entire race by flicking her wrists dramatically
and, to some extent, minimizes sony's rights ownership to xmen i suppose

Yeah, this is a character who had children with a robot and when people said "wait a second, how did that work?" it was revealed that she magicked them into existence*; the flaw here is inherent in the character.

* nb this didn't end well for anyone, whether they be fictional or the real people who read it

I completely missed that Krysten Ritter was starring in this.

yeah it's pretty good casting imo - she's shown she can handled the damaged aspects but can also pull off the levity

Please please please better dialogue than Daredevil. Would be missing the point otherwise.

tennant as purple man suggests they're gonna play it pretty close to alias. would love if they work in the avengers cameo.

i am very much down with this
