Everyone at Fox News knows that Black History Month is the proper time for that shit.
wait for Alamo Drafthouse to announce the Blacks Only screening
I think they've done all the World War Hulk they're gonna do in Ragnarok.
Which makes sense as Marvel Studios' m.o. is to take very superficially recognizable aspects of a run and reinterpret them pretty thoroughly for the purpose of whatever original story they've devised.
Any "Hulk" centric aspect is getting wrapped up in the Infinity Wars, I'd bet.
Wrap up Black Widow and Banner's storylines, actors bail, whatever happens after that (legacy characters, retiring characters) won't likely deal with even the most superficial aspects of either "Hulk" event.
Marvel Studios has never been all that interested in actually adapting their events or runs. Just taking the titles and loose concepts/imagery, and using that as a marketing hook more than anything.

oh i started long time ago.
Folks are going to suddenly find magnifying glasses to nitpick.
As I was typing it out I was thinking that The Last Jedi wouldn't have been as divisive if it was really focus-tested.

That is given, the question is how crazy they will get. Thankfully BP isn't a Star Wars movie or we will porbably see some shit.
knowing how they handled CW they're actually going to make sure Carol is likeable unlike Bendis
Iron Fist came before InhumansCan't just pretend Inhumans never happened.
Something something believability
it's a mcu movie
I feel very confident that either
Bucky
Cap
Plus the movie leads directly into IW, there might be way more appearances, mid and post credit scenes are going to be great.
It's likely it's going to feature the last Infinity Stone, but other than that it'll probably be very standalone (Thor 2 and Doctor Strange both had Stones but were entirely standalone).
BP already has the most tie in for any movie to date. He already got a full arc in Civil War, plus it's looking to feature a pretty heavy part in IF.
I feel like we're supposed to go in full well knowing who BP is already. At the very least, watch Civil War before you go to it.
It's probably going to be the set up for the Earth side of things as well before Infinity War takes place.
Hopefully minus a scene with Falcon or Bucky or one of those C-list Avengers showing up for an action scene.
I believe it was under Marvel Television, a branch of Marvel Entertainment, not Marvel Studios. They've been separate entities since 2015.
Everyone having a heart attack about TLJ, despite it still doing great numbers. It's a Star Wars movie, of course it's going to do gangbusters no matter if it's a bad movie or not (ymmv with it).
I'm just happy Jumanji is getting the love it deserves. I think everyone expected to be a flop and suck, but it's a surprisingly good movie and the box office is reflecting that.

I want the Inhumans to be on the big screen for the sole reason to have Black Bolt and T'Challa to work together. That would be hype as shit. Plus it would also been amazing to have him scream directly into Thanos face, but that ain't gonna happen.
People saying Inhumans shouldn't be a thing, y'all suck lol. Need my Black Bolt.

Also it's mcu it's not going to make people that uncomfortable
So do doctor strange
Doctor Strange didn't have a lot of hand to hand combat. They mostly fought with magic weapons and Naruto hand jutsus.
I am iron fist the living weapon immortal enemy of the hand
It would be awesome for them to adapt the Paul Jenkins/Jae Lee run of Inhumans into a mini series or something and give it the proper budget and creative team. But that ship has sailed now.

I really hope Coogler nails it and makes a monster hit. I have faith in him.
I fully expect some 'surface of the sun' level hot-takery.
The Black Panther OT is going to make the TLJ thread seem like it was a mild disagreement.
In for the legendary meltdowns.
In for the legendary meltdowns.
Let's get some things out of the way:
People will complain about the villain, even if he is great.
People will complain that there are too many jokes.
People will complain that the film is too safe and doesn't try anything new.
Did I miss any of the regular talking points for an MCU film?
I do wonder how long it will take before race becomes part of the conversation in that OT.
EDIT: Actually, the hot takes will begin once reviews start dropping, so probably even before the OT starts.
tbh as much as we joke about it, I don't think there'd be a loud backlash against Black Panther. while you had creep takes for Get Out and Wonder Woman last year (!!) the demographics weren't super lopsided. I mean, hopefully I'm not wrong. or hopefully I am. I...don't know. deep down I'd be happy if people accept it for what it looks to be: a really dope superhero movie with a great director based on a great character. But I know people want meltdowns and such.
Well the lack of a good villains have plagued the MCU for a while. They seemed to do a lot better this past year, Ego was great and Vulture was interesting. (I haven't seen Thor 3: The Dark World 2)
I spent all of 10 minutes reading the OT3 and bounced, vowing never to return.
