    Been brilliant so far, Olsen hinted there was a massive cameo coming up akin to the one in The Mandalorian. Magento maybe?

      Started the great MCU rewatch the wife requested on Valentine’s Day with the first Captain America-movie. Not as bad as I remembered. Not great, but only checked my phone once. But Jesus, there’s 23 of these movies. It’s going to take us six months with one a week.

      I just watched the trailer for the upcoming Ben Affleck Batman thing. How is that a real movie?

        zackster I almost feel like it’s a hate crime to discuss Batman in a MCU-thread, but I doubt this board can take two superhero-movie threads. Here’s an explainer about the new version of Justice League (I’ve not seen the original, will watch this after rewatching Man of Steel and Batman v Superman):

        "Some frequent questions I’ve seen coming up is what’s different with this version to the 2017 version of Justice League.

        Zack Snyder shot 5 hours of assembly footage during principle photography in 2016. From that, he edited it to 214 mins(3.5 hours) and was happy to call it his director’s cut. From this, he was happy to edit it down to 3 hours for the theatrical cut, and release the 3.5 hour directors cut in Blu-ray.

        But WB wanted Zack Snyder to cut it to 2 hours for the theatrical cut. Which is unbelievable, since cutting 1.5 hours from a 3.5 hour movie would make it extremely unwatchable and make absolutely no sense. Snyder tried his best to negotiate with WB to release a longer cut, even made a 2.5 hour cut, which was extremely compromised and makes no sense, but WB wasn’t happy. This was when Snyder suffered a family tragedy and lost the will to fight with WB for the longer cut.

        He stepped down and WB(Geoff Johns) used this opportunity to hire Joss Whedon, and use the 2 months of reshoots to reshoot almost the entire film. He wrote 88 pages of reshoots, which translates to almost 90 mins of the final movie.

        The original cinematographer, Fabian Wagner, and later Snyder confirmed that only 30 mins of the theatrical cut of Justice League had shots by Zack Snyder, and even those were heavily edited. The rest were shot by Joss Whedon.

        So Zack Snyder’s Justice League releasing next month, which is 4 hours, will contain at minimum 3.5 hours of footage we never saw.

        The only new idea is the 4 mins of new footage he shot recently with Jared Leto and Joe Mangeniello, which he added since he wanted this universe’s Batman and Joker meet at least once. Other than that, it’s all shot in 2016."

            Hannu, can you ban this Homegrove person for crimes against humanity please? DC in a Marvel thread? Horrific. Ta.

            nicksneddon either him or Dr Strange seeing as Wandavision leads into DSaMoM and Spiderman 3 which will also have Strange in it.

                My money is on Dr. Strange. Nae spoilers people. 🙂

                Any reboots coming up? Love me a reboot

                Justice League is a new one, a redo.

                What’s the difference between a redo and a reboot? Both seem valid, just wondering.

                Reboot is a new take on something so new cast, story, production - the lot.

                Redo is Zack Snyder wallet inspecting HBO and fans by doing an extended directors cut that changes 75% of the film.

                Just as long as people pay to see it I guess everyone is having a jolly old time I suppose.

                It actually comes free for HBO subscribers.

                Watched the original JL and it was awful. I have no reason to think this will be any better.

                Homegrove Other than that, it’s all shot in 2016

                Right, so why does black T-1000 look like he was filmed in 1986?

                    Homegrove I almost feel like it’s a hate crime to discuss Batman in a MCU-thread

                    Its two sides of the same coin. Marvel is the choice/representation of Democrats as DC is for Republicans. Prefect place for this heady discussion.

                      Also is Banana Man considered cannon? 🍌

                      mono-stereo that would be a Marvel move as they are the woke, soy, pop culture referencing sect of the religion.

                        mono-stereo I hear the new ‘transformers’ movie is based on '‘the crying game’.

                          Lol yes, suddenly a massive crane extends and everything makes sense.

                          Yeah thinking the same, would love it to be true though

                          Wally I thought it was far from subtle for people who know comics. 😂

                            nicksneddon would be cool I doubt it sadly… X-Men first then the Fantastic Four.

                              Zero idea who Kathryn Hahn’s character was before going to Reddit’s Marvel subs.

                              Also we watched MCU-movie 2/23. Liked Captain Marvel better the second time.
