    The Superhero Cinematic Civil War

    I legitimately cannot imagine comparing this obvious intentional comedy leaning into its goofiness to Madame Web. Completely and utterly different things.

    MAWS is cute and very good but I'm ride or die STAS. Sorry, guys.

    The Superhero Cinematic Civil War

    At least you also have James Gunn's Superman to look forward to with it's... very diverse... and modern... cast... :dry:

    Wait Til They Get A Load of Us: The Villains Thread

    Why is the process being slow automatically bad. Lots of writers are incredibly slow??

    Wait Til They Get A Load of Us: The Villains Thread

    Why do you hate Mattson again? He strikes me as pretty run of the mill and unremarkable like you’d expect a secondary writer to be. My only strong feeling about Mattson is that it’s very funny we know he lurks here.

    Wait Til They Get A Load of Us: The Villains Thread

    That GoT spin-off is super early days, though. I'll also be a little surprised if it happens as well, the announcement to production ratio of GoT spin-offs is extremely minimal.

    Wait Til They Get A Load of Us: The Villains Thread

    I frankly wouldn't get my hopes up about that either even if there winds up being another name on the script. This isn't me dogpiling you about you secretly hating Matt Reeves or something but I am honestly gonna be a little surprised if you like this movie :funny:.

    Gonna be honest: there strikes me as almost no world in which Barry is not a huge factor in Part II so prepare yourself for disappointment lol

    This is granular even for Superman fans.

    Wait Til They Get A Load of Us: The Villains Thread

    Barry's creepy, almost innocent slurry voice is awesome. The sequel hook of him gas lighting Riddler into thinking they're pals already signals a pretty unique take to me. I also think him and Pattinson already have an interesting chemistry. I'm not all that into the writing of the deleted...

    Wait Til They Get A Load of Us: The Villains Thread

    Not a big fan of the increasing trend towards ‘Actor must feel like good fit for role as real person’. Feels like it fundamentally misunderstands the very concept of acting and performance.

    Wait Til They Get A Load of Us: The Villains Thread

    A thing that has happened literally one time when a literal crazy person played the role?

    Wait Til They Get A Load of Us: The Villains Thread

    I mean, if we're doing comparisons Phoenix is just doing a lazy greatest hits of previous roles he'd done and is at times clearly actively embarrassed to be there. Barry least comes off as excited and engaged with the material (granted, the writing in the scenes he's gotten is weak but it's...

    Wait Til They Get A Load of Us: The Villains Thread

    This franchise already has a lead actor who maintains a heavily cultivated comedy persona at all times in press tours. Barry's just a weird Irish guy. Also who actors are off screen is super irrelevant unless they're a racist or sex pest.

    Wait Til They Get A Load of Us: The Villains Thread

    Yeah, Barry is an increasingly big deal which in a meta sense is a major benefit to having him in the role. He's just a really unique, exciting performer. No one else quite has the same vibe as him.

    Wait Til They Get A Load of Us: The Villains Thread

    Despite some reservations about his design and the backstory Reeves has talked about I already like him more in the role than Phoenix and Saltburn in particular greatly increased my enthusiasm for him in the role so can't follow you down that road. There's absolutely nothing evocative of Jared...

    I do not remember what a single iteration of the Kent farm looked like. Not even a vague recollection it is so utterly unimportant.

    The Superhero Cinematic Civil War

    As a Hulk fan I cannot overstate enough what a miserable experience almost every appearance of The Hulk after the first Avengers has been. Ragnarok gets a pass for being genuinely funny and having some clever insights into the character.

    Action-Adventure Mad Max: Furiosa Spinoff

    Avatar is a fun, aesthetically gorgeous, accessible, original science fiction franchise that utilizes certain elements of the theatrical experience better than anything else in film history. I get why not everyone likes them (I think they're great) but it's pretty obvious why they click to me...

    Action-Adventure Mad Max: Furiosa Spinoff

    A multitude of reasons but one of them is probably simply the fact that making Fury Road was a miserable, horrifying experience he likely didn't want to replicate. CG was a way of helping that.
