    Captain Marvel (2019)

    Trailer looks decent, but pretty bad at communicating what the hell is going on. Maybe a later trailer does it better. Marvel's usually done stellar in having trailers that get the basic idea and characters across to a general audience, whether it's the first GotG, Dr. Strange or whatever...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    well, there's no real plans or works to do a MoS 2 or a Justice League 2 atm, even before this, no? I wouldn't want to be stuck in a string of cameos for 5 years while WB decides what to do and be kicked as Superman in 2025 anyways, because I'm now over 40. It'd be either "give me a Superman...

    Who is America starring Sacha Baron Cohen

    Admittedly, he walked out. But the trolling is insane. Also some little gems at the start like: Sasha: "In Alabama, people have always been free, whatever their race" Roy Moore: "Yes, it is part of our heritage."

    Shazam! (2019)

    You think this is connected and Shazam will run into Batfleck? Aside from sharing the comic's publisher, it'd have thought this kinda falls into the Hancock/Kick-Ass/Chronicle/Unbreakable&Gass-category of stuff, if at the kids humour scale of things. I.e. movies taking superhero tropes and...

    Aquaman (2018)

    Looks like Aqua-Thor with some Phantom Menace-style large-scale battles thrown in for good measure. Funny how Hemsworth might've been the perfect Aquaman for this.

    Glass (2019)

    If you watch Split for the unbreakable connection, you'll probably be disappointed. Split is it's own movie, and it's not bad. As said above, it's mostly MacAvoy's performance propping up a medicore script. The "Unbreakable Connection" is less screen time than your average Marvel post-credit...

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    Not defending the movie. Didn't even see the movie and don't think I will. I gave Disney's Nu-Prequels a chance with Rogue One and .. well .. it was probably worst Star Wars movie ever. I hear Solo is better, but I'll think I stick with the "main story" movies rather than the backwards-oriented...

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    Seeing how it's the one with the throw-back space western white male lead that "failed", that statement seems more like a desperate Breittarts fever-dream than ever. If Disney were to go down that Alex Jones idiocy (they won't), they'd compare Solo numbers to the numbers of the one with the...

    Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018)

    Guess they'll stick with Tom going millionaire Jackass for the rest of the marketing. Eventually, they'll have to market one of the sequels down the line with 74-year old Tom Cruise getting killed doing a stunt, I think.

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    Yeah, because it somehow became a craze among Breitbart retards and rednecks to hate on that movie. Doesn't mean shit.

    Rambo V

    Still weird to realise the "new" Rambo is now 10 years old as well. It came out a few months before Iron Man 1.

    Black Panther (2018)

    Dat shit travels. Christianity is obviously from the near-east sand pit, but it still gets people hooked in the United States.

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    Sure, but if Thanos primarily wants to please Lady Death, he'll use the gauntlet's omnipotence to do what Lady Death told him If Thanos is primarily concerned with birth rates and resources, it seems more prudent to use the gauntlet's omipotence to dynamically increase resource production and...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    Well, it's part of Thanos' comic background (if for other reasons) so they squeezed it in. It's not perfect, but it makes for a nice cinematic ending. Does it hold up to "couldn't he just doubled all resources and slightly adjust birth rates for all species going forward"-levels of scrutiny? No...

    Venom (2018)

    /shrug Not sure if they'll throw in Carnage for the name recognition, but the story almost point-for-point seems to set up the Five Symbiote thing .. e.g. that Foundation group "forcing" people to bond with a Symbiote resulting in slightly weaker, more one-note versions of Venom.

    Venom (2018)

    No, he wasn't, though a lot of people mistakenly took Logan Marshall-Green as Tom Hardy. Poor guy.

    Venom (2018)

    Dunno. Still think the cgi looks like early 2000s superhero movie era, but Tom Hardy going Gollum/Smeagol on himself is what's interesting about it. Couldn't care less if it was just an evil Spidey with teeth. You could just netflix Iron Man 1, Ant Man, Black Panther or something along those...

    Venom (2018)

    Well, if I understood the Sony-Disney deal correctly, Sony still has the rights to Spiderman (and his villains, supporting characters, etc..) but not to the specific Tom Holland depiction of Spiderman (which the Sony-Disney deal has in for Civil War, Homecoming, Homecoming 2, Avengers 3 and...

    Venom (2018)

    Not very impressed. Tom Hardy is great and the final face-reveal is ok, I guess, but a lot of the random cgi tentacles shooting out of his clothes for a sec before disappearing again feels like CW or mid-tier Netflix quality at best.

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    Dunno, but you can't blame them. Black Panther just topped fucking Titanic and is now the all-time No. 3 movie behind The Force Awakens and Avatar in the US. That movie is insanely popular.

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    And then got a pretty awesome Star Wars movie after the Rogue One abomination. The non-prequels aren't the issue :)

    Ready Player One (2018)

    Pretty sure Warner Brothers have a price list for product placement. Probably less than Mercedes or Gillette paid for Justice League or Budweiser paid for actors to drink Bud from 2017 bottles in the supposedly 70s in Kong Skull Island, as Ready Player One needed "pop culture references the kids...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    So Scarlet Witch is wrong on that list, because how she's depicted in the movies, but Spidy and Thor are wrong on that list, because who they're depicted in the comics as opposed to the movie? Make up your mind man.

    Soldado (2018)

    New trailer. Looks pretty good, if clearly more "Hollywood" than the first ... but, it's one of those trailers that pretty much spoils the movie's plot start to finish. You've been warned.

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)

    What? That Fleetwood Mac song when they split and again in the final battle, when they pull their shit together. Kurt Russel explaining his motivation through "Brandy" by Looking Glass. The guy singing "Soup, Soup" to Silver. Etc.. The use of music in the movie is superb and I can listen...

    Which is why the MCU peaked with Iron Man 3. Doesn't get more real than that. #trevorslatteryforlife

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    One of the Thanos Sidekicks. Costumes have been out for nearly a year, but presumably the CGI wasn't ready for older trailers to show them.

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    Seems fitting, given New Gods/Fourth World was a pretty hamfisted attempt to rework comics into late 60s/early 70s esoteric hippie mumbo-jumbo and a gigantic financial failure at the time.

    Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (2018)

    I think Depp looks pretty good in the role, actually, and wasn't half bad in Black Mass and the Orient Express either. If he can move on from the Tim Burton/not-Jack Sparrow type characters and never look back, he could have a nice late career IMO.
