I was about to post the exact same thing. Feige should be all over this : back then, Ackles would have made a great Cap, or a great Hawkeye. Now that the MCU is going to Phase 4, with plenty of new parts to cast, he should get a shot.

I guess. I’m still kind of uncertain of some of Feige’s choices for Phase 4, and i’m still not convinced some of those projects won’t just get canned once the Fox properties are officially in, but we’ll see...

That’s better.

Meh. Granted, I’m only superficially familiar with the character, but unless they really go out of their way to make something different, stylistically speaking, I’m not sure I care for yet another street-level martial artist in the MCU.

“hostile energy”... that’s an interesting description of what I’d qualify, more often than not, as “semi-drunk overacting”. Granted, it gives her movies a somewhat different vibe, depending on her degree of mugging for the camera, but still... ^^

Melissa Joan Hart seems to be perfectly happy producing her own Christmas movies for Lifetime, where she can go as excentric as she wants to, and cast whoever she wants to as her love interest. Sadly, that also means her budgets are much lower, and her scripts are much less polished than the norm.

Yeah, same for me. I didn’t hate it, or anything, but I expected more, based on Germain’s piece. It was just... eh.

It’s still the only Punisher outing, Netflix series included, that managed to really capture the insanity of a man snapping and waging a literal war on crime.

Re: Widow : Anyone but Emma Watson, really.

The problem is neither the themes nor the scores : the themes are there, the composers are talented, and the scores are often perfectly fine outside of the movies.

Naomi Scott makes a pretty Jasmine.

Funny (or sad, depending on your POV) that the only show on this list even remotely piquing my interest is the Lower Decks one.

Maybe it’s because I suffered through years of Jarrett’s self-serving booking in TNA, but I just hope Cody “I gave myself the centerpiece championship match on my company’s first event/PPV, and I framed my victory at something historical and über-melodramatic” Rhodes doesn’t develop the same ego...

Yeah, it’s funny how, in the header picture, the suit looks fine, and the muscles seem somewhat natural, whereas in the Youtube thumbnail, the padded shoulders effect is clearly noticeable.

As far as WWE’s audience demographics go, the median age of WWE viewers was 54 yo in 2017, and has been getting older by the year. So, if their main target was supposed to be pubescent boys, they’re failing spectacularly.

Except for the fact that the entire concept of Saru’s initial Spider-sense & cautious quasi-paranoia, his speed and strength, were due to being part of a race hunted & herded for generations, and being constantly hyper-vigilant in order to detect danger and flee it.

As much as I agree with the complaint that those Short Treks would make perfectly fine B-stories in Disco episodes (and should have been used as such, rather than as shorts), I wasn’t impressed by their writing.

Yeah... I’m still not convinced that the Eternals movie is not some sort of secret placeholder for a higher profile, Fox-related property.

And give it to the one director who recently bombed for Disney with a high-profile fantasy movie that ended up an ugly, kitschy mess. How could it go wrong ?

I’d argue that only works if the writing is up to par, pluridimensional, and not vaguely sketched out characters going from cliffhanger to cliffhanger and from twist to twist, like most of Discovery was.
