Finally got around to watching Black Panther, albeit in 3D (which looked fucking terrible, but was the only option), and what a great movie.

I'm not adding anything, but the biggest problem was the immersion-breaking CGI. You have scenes of people in the streets and Wakanda feels like a real, lived in place and the next the characters are in front of an obvious blue screen. It's unfortunate. I also feel like Killmonger didn't get enough screen time, maybe that's good thing. It's a movie I need to see again, and not in fucking 3D.

Hadn't paid attention to the main cast list (the ones that headline posters) till now, nice to see both Letitia Wright and Danai Gurira in it.
Also quite interesting that Pratt got the coveted "and" listing.
Seeing all the Guardians at the tail end of the cast list makes me wonder if that's because they won't actually be featured that much in the movie, or just due to contractual reasons
The Russos said somewhere it's closer to 50/50.

Good God, that looks great. Also it makes me hopeful we'll get the sash.
But it's fan made. Hopefully we do get the sash in one of the sequels though.

That's genuinely surprising, I really thought the Guardians would have got similar screentime to Spidey in Civil War.

Though in retrospect, that wouldn't really make much sense considering the Guardians' close relationships to thanos.

Wasn't the sash there in the Captain Marvel concept art that was shown?
[edit] It is:

It was missing here though which is why some people were bummed about it:

OOOOO that Captain Marvel outfit is bomb, plus it sets up nicely for her to go with the shorter haircut design if they want.

If y'all are gonna discuss what goes down in released clips without spoiler tags, I'm a have to bow outta here till after the movie. What's the rule on discourse about officially released clips?

Understandable. Welp. I'll probably pop my head in every now and then, but I'm a have to chill on reading the thread at large.

Do we expect Valkyrie to make an appearance in Infinity War or do we assume she gets separated during the clash with Thanos.

My guess is that Valkyrie and Heimdal somehow evacuate the Asgardians. No way they kill them off entirely. Plus Korg and Miek must continue

Remember when people wanted Ronda Rousey for Carol?
No.

Loki can use the cube to open a portal to safety for everybody before he dies a horrible death.

If he does die after helping Asgardians leave, then there really isn't a better way for him to go out on. He's been on borrowed time ever since he failed Thanos in the Avengers.

He got to rule Asgard for a bit at least.

We had people at GAF that liked the idea. Others were for Katee Sackhoff, a few for Katheryn Winnick.
And Emily Blunt too. I'm still not buying Brie Larson in the role at all, but I'll give her the benefit of the doubt. Of course she needs the chance to show what she can do in the role.

Nah people were rooting for her too, thank God it never happened

Yea, I don't get it. If we've learned anything from Marvel Studios, they aren't going to hire bad actors. Even initially concerning ones (like Dave Bautista) were genius because the dude turns out to secretly be a good actor. That wouldn't have been the case for Rousey.

I have really high hopes for Brie Larson.

Anyone asking for Katee Sackhoff was off their rockers. She's a super chill and nice person but she's not that great of an actress.
Brie will be amazing as Carol. The films will redeem the character.
They REALLY need to nail her since she's probably gonna be one of the big three once Cap and Tony move to upstate New York.

The other two being Black Panther and Strange?
