Marvel Studios | The Infinity Saga ends

The analogy was intended for him, and I think it will convey the message better than using Metallica though.

Moving back on topic, Captain Marvel’s reached 900m worldwide and 300m domestic in the US. It’s expected to pass both Homecoming and GotG in the next few days.

And that should put to a rest any notion of the rebooted ghostbusters movie failing because of women.

The GB movie was ultra terrible but online trolls dont mean shit. Episode 9 is going to make bank regardless of the fans that hate TLJ and Avengers Endgame will probably be one of the highest grossing Marvel films.

That said,

I’m kind of surprised. Most of the people I know who’ve seen it really didnt like it. When the first Antman came out, I heard a lot of positive things. This one has been basically the opposite.

Wacky world…but china does love them some blonde people.

Interesting words from the Captain Marvel creator.

I agree with him when it comes to the skrulls.

That’s not really my issue. It’s weaponizing the creator to give them an excuse to hate captain marvel more. It’s more the comments than his views… He’s allowed to have his opinion. It’s a movie they do changes… It goes with the territory

I have no issues with Skrulls being “good guys”, given all I’ve ever read about Skrulls it was a nice little plot twist. Plus them trying to find a suitable planet for themselves doesn’t mean they just won’t comeback and Be like “so we really like earth” and secretly start to infiltrate and take over slowly. It’d be a classic heel turn.

Also the fact he name drops Stan and Jack saying “well they’d agree with me” when they’re both dead and can’t say shit is pretty tasteless and fucked up in general.

Yeah someone wondered if it may be a fake quote because of the name drop. Seems very out of place from the rest. Also the fact he only created Carol Danvers and not the persona of who she is today doesn’t help his cause either. She was a side piece when he wrote her

Skrulls being good guys has been done in the comics already. During Annihilation as well as DnA’s Guardian’s run (before Secret Invasion). Heck, for a decent time after that, Kl’rt (Super Skrull) was primarily written as heroic (and let’s not forget Khn’nr).

Given how fucking stupid and misogynistic “fans” are being. It wouldn’t surprise me in the least if this ended up being a fake quote.

I wouldn’t say he was heroic. More like anti-hero. If I remember correctly he even beats women like his robot girlfriend.

A lot of that is probably set up for w/e they have planned after Infinity War. Captain Marvel seems to be the first movie for the next 7 years worth of arcs.

Academy X drew me for one thing: it was accesible. Entirely new characters, I wanted to enjoy a series from the beginning, for once. I was entertained by the series, it was… readable. Didn’t dislike it at all, I think it fulfilled my expectations, but it wasn’t anything memorable by any means.

BTW I didn’t know Alejandro Fernandez sings reggaeton nowadays, but first time I started listening to him was in El Canal de las Estrellas telenovelas.

I miss that durag.

Capn Marvel will mostly be set in the past far away from earth covering the 25yes she was missing.

No, I think we’ll have it set in present day, but a big part of the movie will deal with flashback sequence stuff.

If Antman doesn’t make some quip about shrinking down and expanding in Thanos’ butthole, imma be mad as fuck. They killin me with these memes😂

I’m slowly adding more movies to my MCU collection. Target had a lot of the Blu-rays on sale for $20 so I grabbed Avengers: Infinity War, Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Thor: Ragnarok. I ordered The Incredible Hulk steel book Blu-ray off Amazon for $11.99. Yeah, I got a lot to add/watch. Everything except, Captain America: Civil War and Spider-Man: Homecoming is stuff I haven’t seen.

When I want to say either Black Panther or Infinity War was released iTunes had the entire MCU catalog but I think Homecoming on sale for $10usd each. I finally said fuck it, bit the bullet and bought all of them. I knew I’d never get them cheaper than that due to them being Disney properties and they never lower their prices on anything.
