Oystercatcher Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 I just finished Ragnarok. 3 seasons, really enjoyed it and then. Spoiler The last episode reveals that he imagined it all, absolute f@ckin garbage, so peed off, possibly the worst ending to a series ever and I included game of thrones in that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
54_and_counting Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Loki season 2 out a week tomorrow (5th) Be interesting to see where they take this now, marvel getting it tight for how boring phase 5 has been so far, but given loki season 1 opened up the means to phase 5, surely they have big plans coming soon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically a Doctor Who rip off but well executed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
54_and_counting Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Season 2 of loki not getting the best reviews, still watch it but get the feeling marvel are gonna have to take a time out soon and evaluate where the f**k its going with most of the stuff and to stop spreading its talents too thin across so many projects 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Loki season 2 was pretty decent. Given the ending, have they pretty much written him out of the whole MCU now? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have guessed the opposite with him now being the biggest defence against all the Kang variants, and anyone else rubbing their hands/tentacles/other worldly limbs at the prospect of ruling the multiverse. Can't say I know much about it, but there is a comic run where Loki is the God of Stories, which I think will see him playing at least some part in one of the Avengers films. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemingly Hiddleston has said his Loki journey is complete and people are thinking he believes his time is finished as the god of mischief Shame if so as he plays the part so well The fact there was no end credits etc is evidence also apparently, they didnt want to detract from the characters final bow (like in endgame) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
54_and_counting Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Having not had the interest in the marvels, i just read up on it to see what was missing Seems the post credit scene is a very good one and batters open new avenues for the MCU 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londonwell Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Went to see The Marvels today. The post credit scene is indeed very interesting and by far the best bit of the film. The movie itself is pretty terrible. Probably my least favourite Marvel effort so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly not, I’m afraid. There’s always the each to their own principle. For example, unlike @Mark Connolly, I actually enjoyed The Eternals. However, even with that taken into account the film seems to miss on just about every basis. The plot and how it develops is horrendous. That’s the greatest shame as there’s an interesting story to tell leading into Deadpool 3. You can tell Sam Jackson is just phoning it in. The cgi is not the worst of the Marvel franchises but still pretty poor. The humour never lands. The villain is shite and underdeveloped. The whole thing is just a bit of a mess of random scenes thrown together with increasingly tenuous links to each one. The sequence before the end of the film is one of the most lazy and ridiculous that I’ve seen in quite a long time. It’s boring as f**k. Other than that, you should enjoy yourself!

Mark Connolly Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 I've thought about The Marvels again, and it just made me angry Spoiler The last time we saw Fury, at the end of the Secret Invasion series, he had just gone back to full badass. In this film, he was a fucking crazy cat lady 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musketeer Gripweed Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Majors guilty then. Kang reboot incoming in about 10 years i would think. Good, this version of Kang was sloppy and generally shit. The character deserves to be so much better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 They've got plenty of ways to introduce someone else in the role, including simply ignoring the change of actor ala Rhodes/War Machine. They have a multiverse so not difficult to make up some pish about why Kang doesn't look the same (although that scene at the end credits of Ant Man: Quantumania won't help!). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could do worse than retcon guardians 3 to make the high evolutionary a kang variant and use that actor, i thought he was pretty damn good in that role 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
