Movies: Marvel Cinematic Universe Discussion - Part 3

[TheBeastCoast]

so yeah I have to watch Ant man and the Wasp legally now because it explains where he's been in Endgame. Maybe that might explain the end of the trailer. I skipped that movie, but saw IW.

Yeah you probably want to watch that

 

[John Price]

Yeah you probably want to watch that

I thought he was on the planet with Thanos but that was Star-Lord I was thinking of. Come to think of it I don't remember him being in IW at all. So yeah that is a movie I definitely have to watch this weekend

 

[Phil68]

Avengers "End Games" Man man man , i cannot wait.

 

[Do Make Say Think]

If all you want to know is what happened to Ant-Man during IW, just look up the post-credit scene for Ant-Man and The Wasp. The rest of the movie has nothing to do with IW (it is decent enough though)

 

[Jack Straw]

Not necessarily related to the MCU but I don’t know if there’s an X-Men thread...

Just came across the BBC television series, “The White Queen”. It’s a historical drama about the War of the Roses. The screenwriter’s name? Emma Frost. What are the odds?

 

[beowulf]

Haha crazy theory that Hugh Jackman is in End Game because of a google search. So if you search "Hugh Jackman famous movies" for some reason End Game shows up on the list if you click to the right three or four times. It still there this morning but likely due to a glitch with the algorithm. But imagine the fanboy reaction if he does show up for a seen as Wolverine with Banner/Hulk! Making his MCU debute like in the comics, against the Hulk.

So Black Panther is up for Best Picture at the Oscars...

I'm not surprised. Does it deserve it? Kind of debatable but it was a good movie.

 

[irunthepeg]

Essentially my feelings. Good (not great) movie. Incredible cultural significance... but does that equate deserving an Oscar nod?... eh.

 

[Nizdizzle]

I'm really surprised by the praise Black Panther received. Maybe (probably) I'm an uncultured swine, but I thought it was just an OK movie. I found the villain super forgettable, and feel like the plot never really took off. Chadwick Boseman seems like he fits the role like a glove though, and I think he is a great addition to the Avengers Cast.

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

So Black Panther is up for Best Picture at the Oscars...

everyone knows the reason why

Its a good movie, but not great and not the best of the MCU. Infinity War was much more deserving of a best picture nod, but Oscar bait is Oscar bait

Yeah, Infinity War is not only the better comic book movie but a movie in general. Black Panther was still good. I understand how hard it is to pitch a movie that requires the viewers to have seen around 10 movies to understand what's going on of the characters motivations etc. Maybe Avengers 4 next year?

fair point.

though I'd say Infinity War doesnt drop you in blind as bad as it seems.

Everyone knows who Iron Man, Spiderman and Captain America are by now

They start the movie by introducing Thanos and showing his strength in the Hulk fight

They immediately have exposition explaining what the infinity stones are and their power

Then jump to good guys trying to stop the bad guys.


Yes you do lose some of the nuance and inside jokes if you havent followed the MCU, but someone who hasnt could watch Infinity War and follow it

 

[beowulf]

R-rated Wesley Snipes Blade movie?

Grab your salt shakers, We Got This Covered alleges Marvel is now considering a new, R-rated Blade movie starring Wesley Snipes, a process Wesley Snipes alleged has been going on several times in the past.

Destin Daniel Cretton Marvel’s Choice To Direct ‘Shang-Chi’

 

[S E P H]

Any possibility of Captain Marvel joining Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3 with possible Jude Law's character also returning? Don't know how much Captain Marvel joined them in the comic books if at all...

Though Feige confirmed they'll use James Gunn's script, I wouldn't be surprised if CM 2 came before Guardians 3.

Is it confirmed or any substantial rumours we're getting CM2? Or are you making a point that GotG III is on hiatus for a good long while?

Destin Daniel Cretton Marvel’s Choice To Direct ‘Shang-Chi’

Interesting resume. I've heard of Short Term 12 but have never seen it. In his filmography, he's worked with Brie Larson multiple times and had a project in the works with Ryan Coogler that seems to have petered out.

 

[Jussi]

Is it confirmed or any substantial rumours we're getting CM2? Or are you making a point that GotG III is on hiatus for a good long while?

It's guaranteed based on the box office success.

She had her story on the Cosmic side which included being raped by her own future son? Weird stuff like that. Otherwise she's pretty much been Earth bound. I don't think she ever did anything with the Guardians.

Interesting, one arc I did read when it came to comic books was Raven from DC and when her demon father took control of the Earth so it sounds like Captain Marvel might be Marvel's equivalent of that sort of weirdness.

Curious question, did Hulk and Thor ever have their duo in the comic books as they had in Ragnarok? I ask because if they did not, I wonder if they could do the same and create a new duo between characters' where Kree with Jude Law does something where GotG and Marvel have to join together to stop.

long story short, yeah they fight all the time

[Mario_is_BACK!!]

I'm doing what all sane people are doing and rewatching all Marvel films before Endgame. I still don't understand the hate for Iron Man 3.
