Even then, his shades aren’t actually “because his mutant power is uncontrollable”, they’re because “as a kid he had head trauma from a plane crash and because of that he can’t properly control his powers.”

Hah! Touche - and this was something I was actually going back and forth on when I wrote my initial response. It seems the comics have done the same, and taken pains to avoid referencing, say, the “punch dimension” initial sourced in the handbook. Says Marvel author Al Ewing:

It would be cool if they explored this more in the comics. Other characters have to weigh the consequences of their mutations, like X with literally being able to invade the privacy of anyone on the planet or Logan seeing the people around him slowly perish while he persists, but Cyclops just seems to have “has to…

So for all Cyclops knows his blasts could be pushing back on children and puppies in the other dimension? Sounds like he’s a monster.

This right here. And I feel like that’s why almost everyone and their brother can crank out an enjoyable Batman movie, because Batman’s pretty easy to write. Superman is a challenge, and so is Scott.

I always wanted to see a good ol’ Marvel Team Up with Scott and Cap.  I think the two of them are often on the same wavelength, similar on skill levels, and could be an interesting, effective pairing.

Which makes you question how his bad-ass landing worked, since there’s no push-back to him to slow his descent.

Though rule-of-cool wins. And I guess it would be too much to introduce Flyclops to the show...

Back in the day, whenever someone asked me why Cyclops was one of my favourite X-Men, I pointed out that not only was he a team leader and an extremely powerful mutant, it was also his job to wrangle Wolverine.

The irony with these chuds is they always seem to invoke Christianity and Jesus as the basis for their “family values”, and they get it completely wrong.

“There’s too much division” says the guy who wants to restrict the definition of “family.”

There’s already red programs in the original Tron.

Could not disagree more. While definitely a bygone era at this point, T:L was a high-water mark for 3D movies, and it kept the spirit of the original while also avoiding excessive fan service or MCU-esque tongue-in-cheek nonsense.

I find it odd how this surprises people.

I don’t even think quietly, they announced it nearly 5 years ago. They’re on their second director and 3rd writer, they’ve been working on it for a long time, and I’d wager that most of the pre-vis and CGI work has been done for aa while. It was just a matter of finding the cast and shooting the thing.

A 3/4 months to film the actors and a year for vfx and editing seems about right.

The fact that nobody got preview copies or codes of this game is a giant red flag

um, Luke learned how to use the force on the hyperspace trip from Tatooine to Alderaan, and then after a few days in a swamp with Yoda.

Ok, just so you know, literally all of the stuff that happened in the MCU that you mentioned here, happened in the comics. It’s not “social justice,” it’s sticking to the source material. And Captain Marvel has had 7 different characters carry the mantle, both male and female. 

Why doesn’t Variety ever ask Harrison Ford how the masculinity of J.J. Abrams compares to the masculinity of George Lucas?
