    Saw a rumor that they’re pivoting to the BP plan for him. Introduce him in an established series first (DS3) then branch into a solo or midnight sons movie.

    Interesting. Figured he’d be a Washington fan, they are the Commies after all.

    I think it's just that Ali was very demanding that the script be top notch and kept pushing for rewrites, which delayed things over and over. And since he was coming off an Oscar win, he had stroke.

    Eventually, Fiege had to bump it, and then again, and more projects that were further along in development took priority until the whole thing was dead before it was formally announced.


    Same thing is happening with The Batman part 2 I fear.

    Had a dream last night that social media spoiled the thunderbolts after credit scenes.

    First one was Fisk shutting off the power to NYC

    Second was the Beyonders noticing Sentry’s power and saying they were going to investigate but one more powerful needs taken care of first. Then it cut to a 60s style hospital nursery and the name tag on the crib said Richards, F.

    A ton of 3/5 and 7/10 reviews (which are "fresh" on RT), but the vibe is that the movie is really fun and never boring, so that'll make it a marked improvement over Brave New World.

    Also the screenwriter basically works for Marvel and has either touched up or directly wrote (or co-wrote) a dozen Marvel projects, including several Marvel one-shots, rewrites on Ant-Man, Spider-Man Homecoming, Infinity War, and Endgame, and has writing credits on Thor Ragnarok, Black Widow, Thunderbolts, and Fantastic Four

    My oldest begged me to take him at 10 Thursday night; figured I should do everything I can with him while he still wants to do stuff with his Dad. My old ass is going to die Friday morning.

    Holy shit, just remembered Steven Yeun was originally playing Sentry. Having Invincible play an MCU character that dresses, acts, and has similar power set as Invincible would have been really weird/distracting.

    My guess is he is only in a small part of it compared to season 1. Make the season about Kate and Kamala out west running Hawkeye Investigations and building the Young/West Coast Avengers. Let Jen Waters be the mentor figure that pops in if Renner doesn’t want to.

    Best Marvel movie in a while imo, probably some of the best acting in any MCU movie.

    Great film, but weirdly structured, with a very long act one, and a very short act three. Still great, especially the performances.

    No offense to Sam, but Bucky is the real Captain America.

    That motorcycle scene was amazing

    Also

    The silhouette of Bob with just the eyes visible is a terrifying visual.

    Red Guardian was best part of the movie, other than Yelena, who carried it.

    Dont drink out of that Big Gulp
