I love Mass Effect. I even think Andromeda is fun and was unfairly maligned even if it is the lesser entry in the series. But I cannot bring myself to be excited about these teasers. They just seem like a desperate attempt from BioWare to score easy fan points and to distract from the fact that Dreadwolf is still in…

The amount of goodwill Bioware are assuming they have (they have none) is insane. The first teaser for the next ME came out in 2020, 3 years just to release another teaser for a game that may take another SIX years to release? All they’re doing is annoying people.

It has been 12 years since they released an ME game any…

If its really that far out,I would by far prefer them to just not say anything at all. No announcements, no teases, just straight up nothing. 6 months to a year from release should be the accepted window

Been my stance on these for a while. Until we’re say...3-6 months out from launch, I don’t want to hear about it, at least from a trailer/gameplay standpoint. A “hey were working on a thing” is fine I guess, but otherwise all it does it over-hype a game that will inevitably under-deliver.

Getting real sick and tired of seeing trailers for games that are still 6+ years out.

Do what Fallout 4 did: Say absolutely nothing, then tell me in June that it’s coming out in November.

It feels like they should have made a movie where we got to see, you know, all the cool shit that got Carol her reputation as The Annihilator. They skipped the best movie in the trilogy - like if Captain America went from period-piece origin story directly to Civil War without making Winter Soldier, but still had Cap…

I feel like I’m reading a foreign language here.  Since I’m not steeped in all things Marvel...pass.

Just kind of screams to me that the writer or director wanted to tell their own story no encumbered by what’s been established in the comics. Which at that point, just don’t make a Marvel movie.

don’t they usually have a 2nd unit that handles most of the action set pieces? I think the idea behind having an indie director handle the “character interaction” parts of the movie is that said indie director can put some of their unique touch on those parts so the movie as a whole seems less cookie cutter. sometimes…

Whoa, whoa, whoa - hold up!

There is no competitor working on “New Soccer” to capture the market.

No one is coming out and releasing “Football 2".

Maybe they can just focus on making a fun video game now?

One aspect of e-sports that is always an issue: If the underlying game/IP goes out of vogue and/or is killed by devs, your entire system crumbles in a (Relative) flash.

According to a review I read, flashbacks in the movie discuss a Kree civil war in the wake of Danvers’ actions in Captain Marvel. That seems like an interesting event to follow, one that flows naturally from the first film. So why aren’t we just getting that, instead of three heroes (two of whom have less audience…

jon watts had only directed ‘cop car’ before he was given spider-man. shit even before that marc webb had only done ‘500 days of summer’ before he got spider-man. it’s not uncommon at all.

I do think the “runtime” problem at Marvel is partially a result of all the movies being overstuffed. And while I’m glad The Marvels is shorter, I’m not convinced that the runtime isn’t only going to make the overstuffed problem worse.

Maybe. I dunno, though. First act incoherence problems like those described in the review sound like restructuring issues. My guess is that those poorly-received test screenings this summer really freaked them out and they overcorrected with reshoots and plot-tinkering. Again. This just keeps happening. Love and…

I’m sure there are more prominent Captain Marvel villains. (It would be hard to be a less prominent villain than Dar-Benn.) But when thinking about the most famous or popular Marvel villains, it turns out that:
