They already did in Antman. And I'm just salty over seeing my nickel Matt Murdock excluded from the MCU.

I hope they do Doctor Strange justice, but they've been sort of silly about how they handle "magic" in the MCU and the rumored plot outline that came out was the drizzling shits.

Oh for fuck's sake, WHAT IS SO GOD DAMNED HARD TO UNDERSTAND HOW THE US ADVANCED TO THE ROUND OF 16? You play three games, you get 3pts for a win, 1pt for a tie and zero points for a loss. The two teams out of the four with the most points move on.

Oh and TMNT is going to smoke GotG in terms of box office sales.

Same here, Dr. Strange has a lot of promise, just hope they don't screw the pooch.

TMNT looks like shit, but I totally agree based on name value alone.

That's where I was going with it. It looks like total dogshit and I won't see it, but that doesn't mean millions of others won't.

The reason Thor: TDW was a favorite of mine, and the original to an extent, was because of the fantasy aspect. It's a fucking super hero movie. There's supposed to be crazy fantasy shit going on. Saying people can't connect to a character/story unless there's a bullshit arbitrary standard of "realism" is the sign of a hack. The Dark Knight approach is not a one size fits all direction.

Look at Star Wars and how attached people are to the original trilogy. There was rumors Strange was planned to be the Iron Man of the next Phase of films. With a charismatic, flawed asshole of a lead. The casting and story better be top notch. They could be sitting on a goldmine. And I personally would love to see the character get some love again. Those old Strange comics are the shit, and he doesn't even have a solo ongoing and hasn't for years.

Back still giving you trouble?

[Lerch]

When I watch these 'comic book' movies, I do so knowing it's a comic book adaptation. I can check reality and rules at the door.

I wouldn't mind a shot of the Titan virus right now.

Yup. I had about a half a week of no pain, feeling good. Now I can hardly stand up straight. Sliverback, say it.
