MCU: The Marvel Cinematic Universe Official Discussion - Part 5

[Willie Lumpkin]

Maybe it's because I'm old and a guy, but I don't want a bunch of characters hooking up and creating a soap opera environment.

If Marvel wants to feature a lesbian or gay character, just give them a boyfriend or girlfriend as a side character.

Back when I was reading comic books, kissing was yuchy no matter who was doing it.

 

[Silvermoon]

My take on the relationship between Steve and Bucky was more along the lines that Bucky was the big brother until Steve grew up (literally). They have a friendship based on their common decency and many years of trust. Steve is fiercely loyal; especially to someone who had his back for so long. That's it IMO.

This has always been my view as well, that their relationship/closeness with each other is very much more that brotherly love/that of close tight brothers (the "brother from another mother" kind of thing) than any type of romantic love.

Now that the MCU has both Mr. Fantastic and Magneto I kind of want to see this ridiculous scene in live-action.

Did you walk 3 miles in the snow to get to school too?

And that's yucky pal.

 

[Shuri]

I was thinking last night about how MCU says goodbye to the original group (if they do). I would say Steve goes back in time and hooks up with Peggy; a happily ever after story brought to you by the time stone or something like that.

I hope Steve doesn't back to Peggy. I liked them in TWS, was ready to move on from them in Civil war, but Sharon was a huge downgrade. I just want Steve to survive and become director of shield.

Thor becomes king and goes back to Asgard with Jane (just kidding about the last part).

I was about to start writing a long essay.

I just think he'd be happiest with Peggy. They never really got a chance. If you change the past, you never know, we could have another Captain America running around....

He'd frelling hate running SHEILD anyway.

I'd say 2 miles. And it WAS uphill both ways in the snow, because it was Pittsburgh and you can't avoid hills or snow in Pittsburgh.

*Edit* - I just Googled it, and it was 1.1 miles. Sure felt like more than that.

Of course he would be happier with Peggy, but I still want Cap in the MCU. I don't care what he does as long as he survives Endgame I'll be over the moon. But it doesn't look good for my boy .

Cartoon villains are so easy to trick.

X-fans have been salivating over Magneto fighting Iron Man, but won't he look like a fool when he realizes that Iron Man is Iron Man INO? Armor made of titanium will foil Magneto's magnetism just like a wooden gun.

So much for him playing Ben Grimm

[Detective Conan]

Its nice to see David Harbour is going to be in a comic book movie that will actually be hit instead of the other one he's in coming out later than this month which certainly won't be(sorry Hellboy fans! that movie doesn't look like it'll do well critically or commercially).

It may look bad, but I think he'll survive....just not in the "now". Don't worry, there will be little Captain Americas everywhere.

You never know. He may still be playing Ben.
He's like Wolverine, in that they've written him to have a past with many characters all over the Marvel Universe

Maybe he plays a test-pilot who went to college with a guy named Reed Richards...

I know, I know, just saying...

Once again, I should probably read through all the posts before posting.

LOL
i do it too. all the time

if Joker ends up being good I wonder if well start seeing more villain centric movies from Marvel. Maybe they'll green light the Hawley Doom script.

Even if Joker sucks, I still think Marvel should green-light that Doom movie. Didn't Warners doing BvS inspire them to do Civil War in the first place?

 

[Mandon Knight]

Some websites carrying the story that Rachel Weisz is in talks to be in the Black Widow stand-alone film.

Yep it did. They upgraded Cap 3 to Civil War to compete with BvS because their was like a 3-4 month period where they were on the same release date. But Joker comes out this October. if Marvel green lights Doom now they probably couldn't get it out this year unless they really put it on the fast track. And the movie might suffer because of it. Even if they went with as little VFX as possible.

 

[Spider-Fan]

I don't think they meant do the Doom movie to compete with Joker. Just that maybe Joker will convince Marvel to make it period. Any year

I mean thats why we got Civil War because marvel wanted to compete with BvS.
