The Unholy Dragon Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 43 minutes ago, Craig H said: By the way, what was the story about the shuffle involving Inhumans and one of the Disney/MCU executives? This is choppy at best, but I seem to recall that an exec was really into the Inhumans when everyone else thought it was dogshit, which lead to the movie becoming a TV series and that exec getting pushed into another role by Kevin Feige. That would be Ike Perlmutter, head of Marvel Comics. He was basically 50/50 on Marvel Studios and the reason you saw so many Marvel Comics writers as consultants on script/direction. It's less that they disagreed on Inhumans and more that they disagreed on a lot, leading to a split. Disney took Feige's side for the films but Ike still has TV power and since Inhumans was his passion project, we ended up here. It was also around that time that Feige stopped pretending he would ever consider acknowledging Marvel TV stuff in the films. Dr. Strange was the first MCU film completed post-split for those who want an idea of quality difference and Phase 4 will be the first without Ike consulting on plans (though I suspect Phase 3's back end changed a bit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Tough to tell much of a quality difference. I rather liked Strange, especially the ending. More and more the cosmic and now multiverse aspects of the MCU are more interesting than the Earth-bound stuff, but I still really enjoyed Ant-Man, Civil War, etc. A lot is also pending on how Infinity War shakes out to see if the Earth-bound stuff winds up scratching the same itch for me that the cosmic and multiverse stuff is. Do they deal with either of those parts of the MCU on Agents of SHIELD? Now I almost wish there was a viewing guide of sorts for AoS. Basically something to say, "here, watch these episodes and ignore the rest, but if you were interested in some other episodes, check these out too."

Ace Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Milana Vayntrub has been cast as Squirrel Girl for Freeform's New Warriors series. Most will remember her as Lily from the AT&T commercials. She was also The Ultimate Warrior in Max Landis's "Wrestling isn't Wrestling" and was the dimwitted navigator on Paul Feig's "Other Space" that ran a season on Yahoo.

Cliff Hanger Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Since this is supposed to be a lighthearted show, I really want to see Speedball become Penance for like half an ep to take the piss out of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She looks perfect for Squirrel Girl if they use her look in the AT&T commercials as a model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 This does not look promising. The writing is cliched. The acting is relatively unimpressive. Lockjaw is about the only interesting thing in this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Yeah, he doesn't have a huge fin on his head or scales on his arms, but you couldn't tell this was supposed to be Triton? I mean.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 The Defenders trailer: Great trailer. Matt Murdock/Daredevil is one of my favourite MCU characters. I bought Daredevil red suit Funko POP from his first season. Still the best thing from the whole MCU. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man Known as Dan Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 While everyone talks about Defenders positively, and Inhumans the opposite of that, I'm just gonna revel in Runaways getting an official release date (November 21st) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I'd be more excited if they showed a trailer. Will that be uploaded weekly or will they just throw the whole thing on like netflix? I wasn't sure when I read about it yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVA Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Good News: IRON FIST is getting a new showrunner. Bad News: Its the writer of the ELEKTRA movie and the latter years of SLEEPY HOLLOW. Surely it can't get much worse, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
