I'm Not Messing Around, I'm Doing Important Stuff in The Superhero Cinematic Civil War Thread - Part 61

Is Ruffalo officially in the Brand New Day movie too or is that rumor and innuendo?
No trades have reported on it yet. Just a newer movie gossip website. The THR article is only speculating based on not what they reported but other people’s gossip about Hulk.
 
They got Shea Coulee playing a non-binary former drag queen in Ironheart, that's... not nothing

And who knows, hopefully the current political environment will allow Marvel to take some bigger swings on the messaging front

I get the trepidation about having a white guy directing (possibly straight but we don't actually know that), but Schreier did well on his first "Marvel movie with a message" So I'm willing to give him a shot. And as a Jewish person, he's not completely unfamiliar with discrimination anyway.

And I am sure that had absolutely nothing with them trying to bury Ironheart. Nothing at all, I'm sure...
 
My guess is Peter is going to be-friend Banner. And there will be a bounty put out on The Hulk that Punisher goes after and that's where Spidey & Castle will cross-paths.

Assuming anger & duality would be themes.



It’s from a photoshoot he was a part of, but imagine if he actually sported this haircut in the actual film.

The only thing missing is a Nikon camera around his neck.

I do wonder why Ironheart got shelved (temporarily) when they let Secret Invasion run. Granted, Secret Invasion had a popular character in the lead, but still.
 
The Punisher is interesting. Don't hate it, and like hearing that vs. some of the other names thrown around. At least he's regularly interacting with Spider-Man before in comics :funny:
 

Yeah my anticipation for this just shot up and if they can somehow bring Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio into this bad boy than that would be even better as unlikely as it is.

If
Savage Hulk
is actually in this than that would be cool too but I'm here for a low stakes street level Spider-Man movie with maybe some Multiverse shenanigans thrown in to tie into those Avengers movies.

I can already see some potentially great, meaty scenes between Bernthal and Holland since both are talented dramatic actors and Bernthal's screen presence is just on a whole other level as Frank Castle.

Seeing him on the bigscreen interacting with other MCU heroes will be pretty awesome and worth the price of admission alone IMO.
 
Not sure I buy that, especially with them wanting to course correct after their recent struggles. It's a natural rumor after Born Again.
 
Time for some Sunday morning catch-up...

It looks like both Superman and Fantastic Four are gearing up for healthy opening weekends, which honestly tickles me pink (sorry). I've seen lots of chatter on social media about how neither film has a chance of attracting that coveted young male demographic because both Superman and Fantastic Four (the characters) lack the 'cool' factor that Deadpool, Venom, Batman, and Wolverine all enjoy. As far as I'm concerned, dear friends, that's the responsibility of the filmmakers. Guardians of the Galaxy on its surface is one of the dorkiest concepts out there (sentient trees and talking racoons??), yet James Gunn and Marvel made it work through a combination of creativity, inspiration, quirkiness, and empathy. Can Gunn and Shakman pull off the same trick with Supes and FF, respectively? We'll talk again in July :yay:

Speaking of Gunn, I read his Rolling Stone interview and liked a lot of what he had to say. I like how he will consider Superman a success if the movie grosses enough to earn back its budget, and how no DCU project will proceed to the production stage without a completed, quality script. I liked his assertion that the pandemic has conditioned people to consume content at home so studios need to stop phoning it in and start offering exciting enough products to get butts back into theatre seats. That of course vibes with what folks here have been saying all along...

I recently bought a copy of Sinners at full price on Prime Video, because I felt bad for not seeing the film theatrically and wanted to support it on digital. I'm sure it will be awesome but I really like what the movie represents: that an artist with vision can still create an original work that resonates both critically and commercially. Hopefully we'll continue to see more films like this get made in the future as a respite from the unending onslaught of franchise releases...

So Marvel is reportedly prepping a Midnight Suns film? Count me in! And there's speculation that the December 2028 mystery film will be the debut of the MCU X-Men. I too fear that Marvel might be spooked by the commercial performance of Thunderbolts* and give us the safest, most sanitized version of the X-Men possible. Hope I'm wrong...

I recently added both Black Panther and Wakanda Forever to my digital collection. I wondered why they were the only MCU movies on sale this week and then I remembered, duh, Ironheart lol! I never claimed to be the sharpest tool in the shed :D
 
You have to be kidding? I cannot fathom why some stick in the mud jabroni would be saying anything negative about you or any of your posts. Just remember, for every goober who wants to say something negative about you, there’s at minimum 25 folks on here whose days are brightened just because you take the time to post on here. You are money!
And to whoever wants to give you grief:

Thanks so much Billy!

Your kind words mean more to me than you know :hrt:
 
My guess is Peter is going to be-friend Banner. And there will be a bounty put out on The Hulk that Punisher goes after and that's where Spidey & Castle will cross-paths.

Nikon? This is a Canon family, sir. :o
 
So nothing to do with movies but...it's my birthday today and my girlfriend of 15 years (yes I know lol) and I decided to go get our marriage license this morning.

No big deal or anything :o :oldrazz:

Big congrats, Venom! I wish you and your lucky fiancée all the happiness in the world :hrt:

Happy Belated Birthday too, my friend!

Always kinda funny to me that Sony has plastered their other products all over their movies, especially stuff people don't ever really use. Yet their most popular character doesn't own one of their cameras :funny:
Fun fact: Peter uses Nikon in the comics, Canon in the first Raimi film. But never a Sony.
