And Banner.
It just tells you all you need to know about the current state of Disney/Marvel that the CEO believes the film failed at the box office because of a lack of executives present during filming. Completely tone-deaf, incapable of self-reflection, and grossly overestimating their own importance.
This list is laughably bad. How do you not have Die Hard?
To me, there are 3 landmark films that changed the way films are made (at least big-budget films) and brought on the present era of filmmaking: Terminator 2, Jurassic Park and the LOTR trilogy. We are 30 years removed from the first two and now 20 years removed from the latter.
I can’t believe I’m going to say this compared to what we usually get on this site, but this is actually a really strong list. Well done. My regards.
I was intrigued by the first episode. It is extremely weird and a bit unsettling, yet somehow accessible. That said, I didn’t love it. The weirdness will bring me back for the next episode, but I’ll have it on a short leash. I’m really not a Fielder guy, but I am a Stone and Safdie guy.
Probably a good career move.
Was coming to say the same thing. He literally plays a broken down, aging guy with chronic pain in Last of Us. He’s amazing, and I actually think he would play the Reed Richards “I’m way smarter than you and I’m going to tell you so” dickhead attitude perfectly, but time is not on his side. They need fresh, young…
There are quite a few, but your point is well taken. I could definitely see Marvel wanting to redo Silver Surfer/Galactus, Days of Future Past, and Dark Phoenix (3rd time’s a charm, right?). Whether or not fans would want to see them again is another question. I’d definitely want to see Galactus done properly, of…
Honestly, this post is pretty embarrassing for you. Nearly nothing you just described is accurate, nor a plot hole, and I am not someone defending Marvel anymore.
“I only read recaps of Secret Invasion, but this seems to completely contradict the central conflict of that series...”
The film’s big post-credit tease has us learn that the universe Monica stranded herself in to seal the gateway breach is none other than that of Fox’s X-Men movies.
You hit on one of my major points. I think they’re doing a fantastic job casting these roles by and large (Kathryn Hahn, Aubrey Plaza, Iman Vellani, Florence Pugh, Hailee Steinfeld, Tatiana Maslany, Mahershala Ali, even Jonathan Majors from an acting-only standpoint). The problem is making us care about these…
You forgot to mention the Avengers movies as a whole, especially if Majors winds up getting convicted. That means recasting Kang and explaining why he looks different now which means re-writes to scripts and plots and all that.
What’s working:
I’m by no means criticizing him for his stance and not wanting to not only look for the highest quality material to star in, but to not have his availability somewhat limited by signing a multi-picture deal to be in an IP franchise. It’s just that quote. Being in a Marvel movie is definitely not consider by *anyone*…
It was predictably uneven, but I enjoyed it more than I expected to, and had a few really good laughs. 5.5/10 in my book.
Many similarities, notably 1, 2 & 33. Everything else is similar, but some different order. You have Infinity War way too low.

3. Ragnarok
4. Guardians
5. Iron Man
6. Black Panther
7. Infinity War
8. Endgame
9. Civil War
10. No Way Home
11: The First Avenger

14. Far…
I have similar groupings but different order:
1. Daredevil
2. Loki
3. WandaVision
4. Legion
5. Jessica Jones
6. Ms. Marvel
7. The Falcon & The Winter Soldier
8. Agent Carter
9. Luke Cage

16. Moon Knight
17. What If?
18. Secret Invasion
19. Iron…
