    The soon to be much talked about Spot #21 (VIII Days), crappy home recording version: Don't watch it if you're actively avoiding spoilers. It's not a plot spoiler necessarily but it will sure add some fuel to a certain fire.

    Oh I loved Ragnarok and liked Waititi even before that. I just don't believe for a second that KK would honestly want him directing a Star Wars movie on her watch.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    The LA premier is Saturday I think. And so far there isn't a review embargo in place that I know of so unless that changes that will be the day to go on blackout. Although leaked scans of the TLJ Visual Dictionary are starting to crop up even now so if you're highly spoiler averse you might...

    So Lord and Miller get run off from Solo because they were injecting too much humor into the production, at least according to the official spin at the time, and KK follows that up by saying it would be a good idea to give a directing job to the guy who made the Marvel movie that most makes fun...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    Yeah hoping you're not going to see one of the major players in the MCU up to this point, in the culmination installments of the series, is a bit of wasted hope. Opinions on the casting notwithstanding.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I haven't heard anything about Lucasfilm considering a young Luke movie, just fans enamored with the idea of someone that looks so much like a younger Hamill playing the role. But I wouldn't put it past Lucasfilm to latch on to yet another movie centered around a well established, much loved...

    So he might end up hulking out mid fight and join in on that closing shot charge? That would make for one hell of a chest buster scene.

    If they have 20 more movies in early development for Phase 4 it's a pretty safe bet that at least 3/4 of them aren't so far along that they can't modify their plans going forward.

    What if Rhodey isn't in the War Machine armor but it's him in the Hulk Buster? It did look like it landed a little awkwardly in the trailer.

    He looks different now because they've opted to go the same route for Brolin as they did for Ruffalo with the Hulk; a more direct translation of the actors face to allow their expressiveness to show through. Eliminating the ridges above his upper lip probably makes that easier. If he truly is...

    No need to apologize. I've mentioned before that it's a popular misconception. And it doesn't mean that those aren't The Whills, they've just never been identified as such in canon.

    That's a force priest(ess). That's all they have ever been called within any official source and have never been referred to as The Whills. One theory that has cropped up recently though is:

    The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)

    Something like the Amazon deal going down when it did makes a little more sense now. It turns out Christopher Tolkien retired as the Director of the Tolkien Estate back in August. And they didn't acquire the rights to The Silmarillion. Basically, they got the TV rights to the same material...

    They probably threw the TFA recap in there to try and give the TLJ parts some context since the vast majority of the Chinese audience never went to see it.

    I wouldn't expect to see him very different in terms of his gear than what we saw in the trailer. He's not wearing most of the old armor in virtually any of the other promotional materials for IW. They even built the statue of him without it: The Russo's explanation of why: “He has a more...

    I can see why some will be taken aback. This is the first time we've seen him without his helmet, hence all of the Bruce Willis and potato head comments. It's also the first time we've seen him in anything close to a day lit environment. It comes up regularly but it's a lot harder to make a...

    If you look closely as some of the stills from both Black Panther and Infinity War many of the Wakandans are wearing metal armor. I don't know if they suit up the rank and file in vibranium but they're not all just out there in animal skins.

    Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

    Ant-Man was more heist than comedy. Granted a comedic heist, something of a scaled down version of the Ocean's movies.

    Well we know, since the Guardians end up finding him floating in space, that things don't end well after the encounter with Thanos's ship. A bunch of dead Asgardians and the loss of the Tesseract. He may come out of that thinking he really does need some sort of weapon, having fought with one...

    Thor never got the pieces of the original. I don't suppose he has many hearts of dying stars just lying around. Though I guess that could be what was being shown in the trailer with him in the center of the large hoop. A star or maybe the forge in the background.

    I was wondering because I mentioned in the A:IW thread that we don't know who Dinklage is playing yet and one of the guesses that's been floating around is Eitri, the dwarf that forged Mjolnir. I wasn't sure exactly what weapons had been associated with Thor over the years that might serve as a...

    She basically wants her career to look more like Harrison Ford's and less like Mark Hamill's or Carrie Fisher's. She doesn't want her 15 minutes to tick off and all she's known for is having been Rey the scavenger girl from Jakku. Not an unreasonable desire.

    Between Marvel saying Adam Warlock won't appear until GotG3 and the fact that we haven't heard of anyone being cast in the role it really doesn't seem likely. We still don't know who Dinklage is playing yet but it's safe bet it won't be AW.
