The eyes literally looked like this:

Which incidentally also starred Tim Blake Nelson.

Yeah, there's a bit of Hobo Doom in this Leader

 

[Lily Adler]

I loved the glowing eyes, but then again, that was before we could actually see him...

It never made sense to me they used the same actors for Betty, Blonsky, and the Leader. But they couldn't get Sam Elliot back as Ross?

Oh but Tim Blake Nelson has a droopy eyelid so they look uneven.

Different multiverse.

I liked Sam Elliott's Ross more than William Hurt's but I think they were trying for a box office boost Hail Mary play by casting Harrison Ford. I'm not sure if that made a significant difference in the box office take as it would have if it were the exact same movie and Hurt hadn't passed but for what it's worth, I also preferred Ford's Ross over Hurt's.

But instead of Red Hulk with chest hair, we could have Red Hulk with a mustache!

Is that what you think?



Seriously, the logic ain't logicking with that.

This is more like it! Even if his mustache looks more like clip-on bangs.

 

[Filmfreak]

If we can have Nosferatu with a mustache I don't see why we can't have Red Hulk with one.

And unlike the comics it's not really a secret who he really is in Brave New World so it's purely an aesthetic choice.

Too bad Ed Norton was difficult to work with.

In the comics it makes sense though. The gamma caused the moustache to gain sentience and it realized being on Ross's face during fights would cause it to get injured. So during transformations it would quickly crawl off his face and hide on top of his head.

Spoiler

I am fine with the design in the movie. It's got an element of body horror to it and makes him grotesque.

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

Speaking of Brave New Mid, I had an idea that would've added some intrigue to the plot:

Spoiler

Sis should've been revealed to have been a member of the Dora Milaje, working undercover close to the President to keep an eye on the Adamantium.

But that's just what I would've done in the driver's seat.

LOL I never realized that Ross’s mustache would disappear when he transformed and then grow back when he reverted to his original form. I know I shouldn’t really be looking for logic here, but WTF?

Apparently Elon Musk shared a picture of an "immigrant mob in the U.K"...turns out it was a shot from The Dark Knight Rises and he deleted it.

He's so full of crap.

No one is claiming that, but go off.

 

[Chip Chipperson]

Well it made me laugh, to each their own

Maybe Netflix.

A few thoughts as I continue my Daredevil marathon:

Season 2 was a mixed bag. The Punisher and his story was the highlight but I had a hard time getting into the stuff with the Hand. I found Elektra annoying but I think that was largely due to me rooting for Matt and Karen lol. Overall it was enjoyable albeit a clear step down from Season 1.

The Defenders was...okay. The Hand continued to be uninteresting to me. Keeping in mind that I have yet to see all the Netflix-Marvel stuff, the main standout to me was Krysten Ritter as Jessica Jones. I thought Mike Colter was good as Luke Cage and Finn Jones was fine as Iron Fist. I hope all three of them make the jump to the MCU-proper one day.

In short, I have to agree with the consensus regarding these two. I'll also need to make time to catch the Punisher's and Jessica Jones' solo series one of these days.

Onto DD Season 3 which sounds like its a return to form.

Have you watched The Punisher series as well?

 

[Chris B]

Not yet but hopefully soon. I'm admittedly not much of a Punisher fan but Jon Bernthal is Grade A casting and has sold me on the MCU's take at least.

Spoiler

The ending is why MAGA loves him.

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

Hear me out:



Although I still cringe at the idea of Gunn handling Harley, but this would be Grade A casting.
