    That's a definite wait-for-Disney+ for me.

    Most Marvel product post Endgame has been exactly that for me. I'm still curious to see whether they've managed to pull it off, but I've also sobered up after a good decade of running to theatres as if my life depended on it. I'm nowadays more than cool with waiting a few months for a night of fun at home.

    This is not the case with DC, by the way. A new Batman film? Oh boy, me wants it badly; I'll set up camp at the movie theatre if I have to. ;-)
  • This looks fun: I'm not the biggest Marvel fan, but I've always enjoyed the lighter entries. I prefer Guardians of The Galaxy, Thor Ragnarok, Ant-Man, and the latest Spider-Man films most!

    Those are all my favorites from the MCU too. I’d throw Homecoming and Ant-Man and the Wasp in there as well. The more comedic Marvel films are among their best.

    I’m curious to see buff Natalie Portman and more of the Guardians here, but apart from Chris Hemsworth’s impeccable comedic timing (which seems to only be getting better from film to film) I didn’t find anything particularly funny about the trailer, and Bale’s bad guy seems like an odd fit for Waititi’s take on Thor. I guess we’ll see in another month though.

    The trailer looks promising. I am counting on an interesting comic book adaptation about Jane as Mighty Thor and Gorr.
    But I hope that Love and Thunder will not be so goofy as Ragnarok.

    Just watched the first episode of MS. MARVEL.

    Cute show. Nice to have a female protagonist with flaws and challenges. Curious how this plays out.

    I watched it yesterday and to be fair it was produced well, the family dynamic was amusing. It reminded me of Into the Spiderverse with how is was framed and edited.

    I definitely like how her imagination is fused into the visuals of the show. Very different from the typical Marvel cinematic language, which is always welcomed. It’s a way to break the fourth wall without actually breaking the fourth wall, which is more of Deadpool’s territory.

    That was clever the illustrations on buildings, I thought the score was good, I liked the color palette and cultural references, it was well made.

    I just watched this now (bit behind!) and I thought it was utterly charming! But then I thought Moonknight started out well too... ;)

    Great lead and direction, although I guess the way the message behind it (from the global megacorp which makes countless superhero movies and merch) seemed to be that it's fine to ignore your studies and be a fan and consumer of superhero stuff was maybe a little sinister :D

    I haven’t watched MOON KNIGHT yet. Just never got around to it. I will soon, there’s just so much content.

    I have to say I’m enjoying Ms Marvel a lot. I think it’s doing a much better job at exploring what it would be like to be a teenager in the MCU than the recent Spider-Man movies (which are still good). So far this is shaping up to be one of my favourite Marvel projects in phase 4, and I can’t wait to see the character in the Marvel’s.

    With the exception of WandaVision, I’ve felt every Marvel tv show should have been a movie (Hawkeye, Moon Knight) or just felt like they were made to give Disney+ some extra content (Falcon, Loki). I think Ms Marvel justifies it’s position in being a tv show, and I can’t wait for the remaining episodes.

    It’s been reported that this will have a brisk 118 mins running time.

    I wish more blockbusters returned to that.

    None spoiler reviews say its jokey, tone in films is vital.

    Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness has become my favorite directed MCU movie. There are some deep cuts in this film .Sam Raimi.

    The
    Musical note
    stand off is epic!

    There is one line of dialogue in this film I just said 'WOW'.
    'I wondered why I lied'.

    I will wait till streaming.

    I edited my above post. 'I wondered why I lied'. This film felt more DC than Marvel.

    Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness this has one of the better Omega Level meltdowns. So far...

    Some reviewers saying Love and Thunder is too goofy, I suspected as much from the trailers.

    I find that the movies get a lot of the characters completely wrong. Compared to the source material, they don t share much more than the name and certain attributes/environments.

    I was very much a DC fan as a kid and only really knew Marvel from the Xmen and Spiderman cartoons back in the day. One thing is obvious the MCU films/TV have certainly dropped in quality with a few acceptions.

    I think when a IP very much like Star Wars is having so much content put out it dilutes the product.

    It gets to a point that as long as a brand name is attached they can sell people $#/+

    I agree, I still generally like Marvel, but it is overexposed by its fans who can see no wrong.

    I am a big Doctor Who and Star Wars fan though I will call it out if its sub standard. Sometimes I wonder if bad content is being put out on purpose.
