Vondy Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Firefighters and paramedics are real superheroes IMO. Firefighters wear masks, just like criminals and terrorists. Christopher R Taylor and massey 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher R Taylor Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 It makes for really depressing storytelling but a superhero that finds out he's in a society where these days feels trump freedom would be a pretty effective sci fi type cautionary tale.

Christopher R Taylor Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 I really like Cloak and Dagger, but I fear for what they'll do to the story. Its a great movie concept, not so great for a comic book series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 Well, super powers and mystic masters are out, then. And so are Super Soldiers and Master Assassins. I mean no-one uses shields these days apart from riot police. No one uses archery when guns are easier to get hold of. And the Russians have never ever used assassins.

Enforcer84 Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 Does your list also include Val Kilmer, Sam Elliott, and Bill Paxton? You have activated the "My uncle and aunt went to high school with Sam Elliot" alert from the recesses of my brain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vondy Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Natalie Portman will not return as Jane Foster She was pretty much phoning it in, anyways. You could tell she didn't want to be there. No loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher R Taylor Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Yeah from the start she didn't really seem to enjoy the role or put herself into it at all. Then again, she never really has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starlord Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 A Captain America: Civil War Alternate Ending? Here's What We Knowhttp://www.cinemablend.com/new/Captain-America-Civil-War-Alternate-Ending-Here-What-We-Know-124017.html I've always assumed they'd kill Steve Rogers, which is sad because he is by far my favorite MCU character. He's been handled almost flawlessly so far. My hope is that Bucky will die, thus causing Steve to quit and lose faith and is only drawn back only by the danger of Thanos.

Christopher R Taylor Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 I'm reasonably sure Tony dies in some contrived heroic fashion (like the Avengers film when for no sane reason some demented pilot launched a nuke at New York City).

Christopher R Taylor Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Because he was following orders? Not only is it standard doctrine to disobey idiotic and immoral orders, but the orders made no sense. Plus, he was under direct orders to not nuke Manhattan. How was nuking a densely populated major city going to stop an alien invasion from a portal in the sky far above the city in any case?? The entire sequence was so that Tony could be a hero and "learn a lesson" from Captain America. It was weak writing, even if it was exciting to watch.
