January 10, 20232 yr Secret Wars, mutli-verse, quantum/time devices, etc. they could really bring anyone back or do anything. They can use Ultron/Jarvis/Vision technology to put someone's mind into another body, I mean they can do all sorts of things. They can also have cameos that are flashbacks, dreams, someone impersonating (how Loki would impersonate them for example). If it will make them money, they'll make it happen.

Maybe. I think of Kang as more of a chess grandmaster than a super powerful being like Thanos (not that he isn't powerful). Strategic sacrifice is a hallmark of chess.

Strategic sacrifice is a hallmark of chess. That's a good and fair point. I didn't look at it like that but you're right. Fight brawn with brains.

It's planned irony I think, him really showing up in an Ant Man movie first. His tech comes from future Stark tech, and in the MCU Scott Lang basically made him possible by bringing his time travel idea to the Avengers and Stark. Everything's that's going to happen is a repercussion of Endgame and stopping Thanos.

Some brilliant entries (Gotg, Winter Soldier, No way home, Wakanda Forever) some bad entries (Dark World, MoM) some surprisingly enjoyable debuts (antman Shang chi). It’s not phase 3, but phase 3 is a culmination. This is a resetting of the table for phase 5-6.
January 12, 20232 yr Author Completely unrelated, Giancarlo Esposito continues to push for Professor X and I’m definitely interested.

Eternals would have been far more interesting as a series. Waaaaay too much lore to set up not nearly enough time. Cap on the other hand had a great 2 hour movie that was flooded with a bunch of extra storylines they did not need.

I didn’t expect much and enjoyed both. what if was hit or miss and had some stinkers and some good ones. I agree on rest of your summary minus loki which was great and wanda which ended up ok but started for crap until they ended the dumb sitcom thing that went on way way too long
January 12, 20232 yr Black Widow - Didn't bother Loki - Didn't bother What If...? - what? WandaVision - Saw a couple, super lame The Falcon and the Winter Soldier - Didn't bother Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings - Didn't bother Eternals - Didn't bother Spider-Man: No Way Home - Didn't bother Hawkeye - Didn't bother Moon Knight - Didn't bother Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness - awful, mindless drivel that should hang its head real low while Everything , Everywhere rakes the awards She-Hulk: Didn't bother Ms. Marvel - Didn't bother Werewolf by Night - Didn't bother Thor: Love and Thunder - Didn't bother Black Panther: Wakanda Forever - Didn't bother The Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special - This is a thing? Holy bells I will find that!

January 14, 20232 yr 4 hours ago, NOTW said: Phase 4 was average at best. After the end of phase 3, average is a win. As long as it set up a great phase 5, I'm perfectly fine with average
January 15, 20232 yr On 1/14/2023 at 12:35 AM, NOTW said: Phase 4 was average at best. I just think they are trying to do too much. And I get they wanted to do things a little different to phases 1 to 3 but I think it's too much. And maybe all will become clear in phase 5 and 6 but I think they've taken on too much.
January 17, 20232 yr 2nd time watching the Eternals as I've been watching the MCU with my son. I enjoyed it more 2nd time. I think one problem was the placement after Endgame, it's tough with everything prior being connected to the Avengers storyline. Some parts were a little cerebral which can be refreshing but things can be missed on first watch.

I think one problem was the placement after Endgame, it's tough with everything prior being connected to the Avengers storyline. Some parts were a little cerebral which can be refreshing but things can be missed on first watch. The Eternals is such a weird movie for me. Like it’s gorgeously shot, I love the cast, I can even understand why the character acted as they did and the overall story makes sense. But I feel like they skipped over the most interesting story beats. Like I wanted to see Thena go mental and Gilgamesh work to help her, I wanted to see Phastos faith in humanity and it ultimately be destroyed after Hiroshima and Nagasaki, I want to see Druig’s arc after he "quit” the mission and his life in the commune. For me, there was so much great character work to be mined from these stories and you just killed it all by making them vignettes. Meanwhile you have this love jealousy Sprite arch that completely comes out of left field because we have no real time to set it up in the film. I remain convinced that if they created a a miniseries of the characters for everything leading up to endgame you could have had a really great movie.
