    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    Not really. Didn't need to kill the human torch to make him Steve Rogers either.

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    Yeah. Not sure I ever say Bucky in serious trouble. If anything the opposite and he's a bit too much of a Mary Sue. Not only surviving falls from planes or 10-story building before punching out half a dozen super-soldiers at a time, but also hacking Apps and whatnot which seems awfully out of...

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    There've been thousands of shit movies before those. And thousands of shit movies afterward. Watching a disappointing movie is one thing. Probably happens fairly regularly if you're watching movies regularly. Trying to desperately to stir up some kind of fake outrage over some alleged SJW...

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    Sensitive Trumpers getting triggered by a non-white lead and desperately flailing to make it a political statement to hate the movie like Last Jedi or Captain Marvel will be half the fun in this, lol.

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    Yeah. Looks like a Kung Fu movie on a Disney budget with the obligatory Marvel quipping/comic relief, which is a formula I can get behind. I am in.

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    So she'll be the Nick Fury of Villains or some such?

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    Well, it's not that secret. There were giant space ships hanging over New York and such in Infinity War, even before they launched an Invasion at Wakanda, a literal minute or so before the blib. Make the link to the 2012 Alien invasion of Avengers 1, and it's not much of a stretch that these...

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    It's a fun and plausible-enough theory about plot changes. But ultimately just that. A YouTube-theory.

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    Well, better go full retard then and have somebody randomly invent time travel after doing the dishes and go back in time to fix it ;)

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    Well, but he shouldn't be (at least if they stay somewhat faithful to the comics). Sam Wilson's Captain America is supposed to be a more flawed hero with more doubts, questions, etc.. . Not saying the actor couldn't fuck that up as well, but if he and/or the director/writers aim to write his...

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    Yes. So what? That's also how it is in the comics. Steve Rogers as Captain America is the ultimate ideal. And others taking up the shield have to content with that/struggle with that/each in their own way. John Walker in the comics is the character written to take on a toxic...

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    Budget (despite disney?)? I mean the Episode 1 sky/helicopter chase was fun, but probably more expensive than all of Wanda Vision together. Maybe even Disney doesn't want to blow a movie's worth of money on every single episode? Reminds me a bit of Umbrella Academy Season 2 in that regard...

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    Pretty sure there needs to be a fisty-cuffs between him and Sam to mirror the comics. A) It's Marvel, so it needs to end in either a fist-fight, a sky-beam or both. B) Ultimately, it's Sam's story arc/superhero origin story 2.0 to become/feel worthy of the shield/title, so in classic heroes...

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    Why the hell would they want to go down that road? Did Ultron or Thanos just bow out for personal reasons? Or even evil-Ant/Yellowjacket Man? Ironmonger? Killmonger? etc.. Comic book villains don't really work that way, lol. Of course there's gonna be a comic-inspired slap-down between Sam...

    The Suicide Squad (2021)

    Which is what I said. Keanu didn't need it. Which is why comparing Chubby Batfleck to Wick is wrong.

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    Probably in one of those wars against Space Aliens invading cities with iconic landmarks through wormholes and / or temporal portals.

    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

    Still waiting on that Eminem MCU cameo to break it to the world that his real name's Clarence.

    The Suicide Squad (2021)

    Well, Keanu made it look cool however, wasn't 30 pounds overweight and didn't need dozens of Liam Neeson-fence-jump-cuts in scene shot with a grainy potato-cam in the dark to hide his belly and the many stunt-double transitions.

    Wrath of Man (2021)

    Statham action looks fun ... but I kinda feel like I watched the whole movie from the trailer, lol. Talk about giving away all the plot points.

    The Suicide Squad (2021)

    Banter feels very forced and didn't really land for me. Kinda reminded my of the latest Predator thingie.

    Red Notice

    Yeah. Probably part of a bundle of "never gonna see a cinematic release"-garbage that Netflix is taking off Universal's hand. No way they paid Universal/Legendary even close to what Universal/Legendary may have decided to throw at The Rock/Reynolds/Gadot in the early summer of 2018, fresh of...

    Tenet (2020)

    Yeah, ROTAS is in it. It's the name of Sator's company storing stuff at airports (in the business of letting people walk in to view paintings, etc..).

    Tenet (2020)

    Yeah. Though it is also one of the more unnecessary / paradox things. He goes back to "unlock" the door and get shot in the head. But since he's the one going reverse in time, he's the one who would've locked the door from the regular time-perspective? From the protagonists perspective (going...

    Tenet (2020)

    Which would be fine, really, if Nolan-movies wouldn't come with this odd group of internet-shouty-fans that insist for some reason that everything sci-fi Nolan does is SCIENCE!!!! and if you don't see Nolan's latest flick as the ultimate revelation of cinema, you're just too stupid to understand...

    No Time to Die (007 Bond)

    Uh. It's in the actual trailer. She's 007 for some part of the story in-universe. Big deal. She'll probably die by the end of the movie. Doesn't mean she gets the "role" or "james bond movies" of her own.

    Most underrated and overrated movies ever

    Overrated: Aliens (Alien 2). Pretty simple shoot-em up that gutted the original's cool idea for an ultimately fairly medicore 'Nam in Space 1980s action flick. Underrated: Alien 3. It clearly has flaws, but brought existential horror back to the franchise (if only shortly). Subverting the...

    Dune (2020)

    Dunno. The general trend of spicing up / getting a short cut to setting a theme/mood in trailers with nostalgic/classic rock songs, whether it's Nirvana for Batman, Leonard Cohen for the Snyder Cut, now Pink Floyd, I guess going back to Johnny Cash's NIN cover for Logan and such, is getting...

    The Batman

    Don't get the bulk complaint. Roid'ed up 80s Arnold or Stallone type guys beating anyone is way more ridiculous. People with warped bodies like that couldn't realistically beat up a teenager if he wasn't holding still. This worked for Winter Soldier, why shouldn't it work for Batman. Also...

    The Umbrella Academy

    Ellen Page and Number 5 definitely made the season. I liked Klaus in Season 1 (Vietnam arc aside), but I felt he kinda jumped the shark in this one. Diego had a really nice arc, but the actor only really seems to have one face and didn't really sell all the stuff going on with his girlfriend...

    Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga (2020)

    Yeah. Was a bit long in places, but overall a decent enough if you're into Will Ferrel. Elf jokes were fun too. And plenty of actual EuroVision-people Cameos. Also, more music numbers.
