    Okay, but what if we ditch the Echo character and rename the show “Daredevil”? Does that work?

    Watch him get cast at Uncle Ben, who tries to inject Peter Parker with a lethal drug in his sleep.

    Reed? Don’t know if Krasinski is confirmed as of his appearance in The Multiverse Of Madness. I’m guessing that’s not a bait-and-switch…

    Jonny Storm? I’m hoping they make Jonny the same age as Tom Holland for some extra buddy-feel between those two, and if they do Gosling is too old.

    Wolverine? He IS canadian.

    Doctor Doom? I’m just naming names now, aren’t I?

    What is Ryan Gosling up to now?
    Gosling’s film schedule is currently filled with production on the Margo Robbie-led Barbie and the Wolfman reboot yet to begin. The Barbie star recently wrapped up production on the Netflix action flick The Gray Man. As soon as those projects wrap up, the couple will be ready for their reported big move

    Barbie and the Wolfman? OMG YES! Bring it on :yahoo:

    WEREWOLF BY NIGHT could be interesting if they made it like THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME or HARD TARGET.

    Hunting a man that turns into a werewolf at night is an interesting twist on the idea. In fact, I’d be surprised if no movie or show (like a WEREWOLF or SUPERNATURAL episode) hasn’t done something like it.

    I mean, you have a fugitive that is abducted or lured in by a shady group of rich guys out to spice up their lives, Squid Game style, by hunting a group of poor nomadic migrants with no human connections to leave a trace. Naturally, by the afternoon, they’ve whittled down the herd and are now only hunting ex-military or criminals who are themselves trying to protect the weaker members of the group (or use them to survive themselves). Then, sun sets, full moon comes out and one of the abducted transients turns out to be a werewolf.

    Hell, if no one has done that, I’m going to!

  • #96401

    Daredevil: Born Again — Great news, but didn’t they use most of the story beats from Born Again i season 3? I assume they just like the name, like Age of Ultron.

    Wakanda Forever — Totally uninterested.

    She Hulk — This looks like fun. I have no problem at all with the CGI. I could enjoy action and adventure movies from the 80’s and they mostly look like total crap compared to the cheapest CGI available today.

  • #96404

    Yeah, I’m pretty sure the “Born Again” thing is just the title… I mean, it’s a great title when considering the context of the series, but yeah, not only they already used a lot of it, but also, and again: it’s Disney… I doubt they’d go too Frank Miller-y, even on their “adult” section… shit, I’m not even sure they’re gonna touch too much the whole catholicism thing… =P

  • #96405

    I hope “Born Again” is borrowing the title and ideas from the comic and isn’t just a reference to DD coming back from The Snap as I’m well and truly done with references to it.

    You’re joking, but it was absolutely my main problem with Ms. Marvel.

    The showrunners come from the world of episodic TV (they did the Piper Perabo USA show Covert Affairs), so I have hopes it won’t be one long story stretched out. We might even see Matt be a lawyer, something I’m not sure ever happened on the Netflix show.

    My main problem with the Netflix show was that Matt and Foggy were total failures as lawyers. They should at least be good enough to pay the rent and their secretary.

  • #96417

    I imagine we’ll get a bit of Matt lawyering in the She-Hulk show first.

  • #96419

    She-Hulk looks fun. The cgi does look better than the previous teaser, but the main issue that they’re just not going to be able to get past is that she looks more human that Hulk or The Abomination, so there will always be that weird disconnect. I’m not going to bitch about it anymore, as long as the show is fun and interesting it should make up for the occasional dodgy CG face.

    Wakanda Forever Was a great trailer. But I’m more interested in the Namor side of things rather than the black Pantherless Wakanda.

    Dating the Avengers films is surprising to see. It good to see an actual goal for these “phases”, but i guess they’ve got three years now to create some characters that have the charm that Tony and Steve did to actually lead that team.

    So… SDCC came and went

    What in the MCU are you looking forward to?

    Personally, the Antman movie with the Kang Variant, Wakanda,
    She Hulk because it will have Daredevil, then Daredevil.
    The streaming stuff of LoKi, Secret Invasion.
    Maybe Echo, Agatha… all next year.

    Looks to mostly be that the next phase will have all the good
    stuff with the FF being introduced to the MCU.

    I heard remarks that the MCU has mostly been in a lull since
    Endgame and they’re right. Aside from the Spiderman movie, there
    hasn’t been that much either streaming or the big screen that
    amazes. Now it is just MCU keeps churning out stuff just for the
    sake of churning out stuff.

  • #96570

    Yeah, that is the impression but… it could be a clever tactic.

    or more to the point, it is really easy to take a lot of random stuff and then turn it into a big over arching story that no one saw coming. It’s practically the basic Marvel Comics writing manual. Joss Whedon learned it from Claremont’s X-Men and used it on Buffy, Angel, Firefly, etc and eventually The Avengers (and actually on his X-men run too).

    churning stuff out is what they need to do until they get someone who can bring it together, And the only way they’ll find that person or those people is to keep giving people work.

    Looking forward to eventually getting to see Thor 4 and then GOTG 3 down the line.

    Curious about the Wakanda movie with Namor and whatever they’ve got planned for F4.

    Up for the return of Daredevil and some of the other street-level shows, especially if they do a show with the new Hawkeye/Black Widow team-up.

    Always time for more Spider-Man but no clue what may be next for him.

    Rudd is a treasure so more Ant-Man sounds like a treat.

    Not fussed about the rest and the whole multiverse/Kang thing bores me, honestly.

    Would love them to just get on with the X-Men already but it sounds like that won’t be until 2026 at the earliest. Absence makes the heart grow fonder and all that.

    Chadwick Boseman Causes Fans To Boycott Black Panther 2

  • #96665

    To put the blame on Chadwick Boseman, who is dead and therefor unable to reply to this controversy or do literally anything, for whatever shitfuckery is going on with fans is fucking low. I’ll boycott that article for that headline alone.

    7 users thanked author for this post.
  • #96667

    While it’s secondary to the obvious tragedy of Boseman’s death, Marvel Studios were left in a difficult position when he died. They had a few options – recast the role entirely, use CGI to recreate Boseman to some extent in the sequel, or write out/kill off the character altogether and not recast him.

    They seem to have chosen the latter route, which to me seems like the classiest way to handle it – and let’s not forget is in line with a lot of the calls from fans immediately after Boseman’s death, who said it was the most respectful way of moving forward.

    But let’s be frank, whichever option they chose they would be getting a load of shit from some sector of fandom about it right now.

    Who knows how the movie will turn out, but all this arguing about it in the wake of Boseman’s death seems somewhat unseemly to me. The specific handling of a superhero franchise is hardly the most important thing, even if it was his most high-profile role.

    If you want to honour Boseman’s legacy then watch his movies (beyond just the MCU!) and celebrate his talents, don’t drag him posthumously into this endless argument about what was the best way to handle it.
