Yeah Depp’s Wonka isn’t awful, but his Michael Jackson riff was nowhere near as good as his Keith Richards bit from the Pirates franchise.

Inhuman failed for lots of reasons. MCU for whatever reason couldn’t get the property up and running for the big screen, I’m sure the original release dates got pushed back.

“Isn’t”

Is that the case for most Hollywood superhero movies? I wouldn’t just pin that on MCU.

“Assuming Russell Crowe WASN’T just trolling everyone”

Me and my bloody typos.

The Absorbing Man stuff was equally as stupid as the gamma dogs, but I won’t begrudge Nick Nolte the chance to ham it up a little.

Assuming Russell Crowe was just trolling everyone about playing Zeus in Thor4 (as it should be called), then I’m guessing that Hercules is being set up in that film.

Tbf this is the teaser trailer, we don’t know how much of the central plot involves Kumail’s character.

I can see how that tracks for the big Avengers films, but I don’t think that template fits for Ant-Man, Spider-Man or Captain America movies. Heck even Black Panther was about challenging power structures (to some degree).

I will defend Ang Lee’s Hulk (to a certain degree) in that I think it’s a very good film, but not a very good superhero film. Visually the comic book pages thing was very good and I liked the father/child motif that was running through it with Bruce/David and Betty/Thunderbolt.

It’s just the ever increasing (in height)…

I’m gonna be honest: I know very little about Eternals.

“You think he’s got it bad?”

Penny Hartz Hitler if you please.

Were Stilt-Woman or Stilt-Lady copyrighted?

Plus whichever sci-fi property you want to include from Nick Frost’s back catalogue.

Only if he describes his perfect Sunday.

I had the impression it was supposed to be pretty good, whether that translates to success or not is hard to gauge. Anyhoo your broader point about Apple TV+ is correct, they don’t have much going for them outside of the shows you mentioned (which aren’t exactly that compelling).

Jason Mantzoukas as Mojo please.

I think The Morning Show is another big Apple TV+ show, though I guess that’s more Mum TV than Dad.

I think comic nerds are crying out for an adaption of this.
