Tomb of the Dragon Emperor is one of the most boring and forgettable movies I have ever seen.

You'll get no argument from me on that point

Thank Ebert Christ isn't here to see this.

Skip past them and go to what? Those were the last two.

hmmm could we replace Tom Cruise with the Galapagos Isles?

Then they could have characters from the long-forgotten previous films pop up in the future ones, like when (spoiler I guess?) Ice Cube saves the day in XXX 3: The Return of Xander Cage.

Honestly if they just ditched the whole "connected Avengers universe" nonsense for a bit, and made some classic monster themed action movies, they could do a team-up later on the off chance some of them are any good.

Actually I think Cruise would have been a good fit for Ozymandias. He's got that sort of "I've perfected myself over years of training" arrogance and confidence.

All those suburban tweens are suburban moms now though.

This movie is perfect and I will fight anyone who says otherwise.

I kept expecting him to transform into "real Ares" who probably looked like a big buff Greek dude or something… but nope, Ares always looked like tweedy Englishman with a goofy mustache.

And even Captain America was becoming kind of a dick in his last movie.

I'd say it's on par with the first Captain America and better than Thor.

I like to think he crashed into the polar ice caps, and after being frozen for decades he'll get thawed out to battle invading alien forces in modern times.

"Hero follows destiny" is literally 90% of movies about dudes.

I agree with what you're saying. Batman movies aren't just for dudes, and Wonder Woman isn't just for girls.

The climax is messy because the characters split off to have two separate, mostly unrelated climaxes. Like, the German soldiers running around while Steve sneaks onto the plane don't really seem to notice how two literally gods are battling nearby. It would have been stronger if they had connected them better.

I can't say Skull Island was a good movie but it was absolutely a fun as hell movie.

I want it injected into my veins.

I mean Wally Brando has to be a dig at Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, right? We meet the teenage son of two of the main characters, and he's played by a known actor mimicking Marlon Brando in an attempt to be cool, and only succeeding in being a huge dweeb.
