I thought Ant-man sounded like a weird idea for a standalone movie (i mean i thought they'd jsut introduce him in one of the avengers films) but when i heard about what they wanted to do with it in pre prod it sounded interesting.

As for the amount of movies they make, well as long as there's some quality.... I hated the first Thor and thought the second was watchable. I also thought the second Captain America was a lot better than the first. So i don't really have complaints right now... The only truly bad live action thing marvel has done recently is Agents of Shield.

i'm (pleasantly) surprised by how dark the trailer is. but is it indicative of the direction they're going in with this one, or is it misleading?

They really are cranking them out, though. As somebody who doesn't hit the theater that often - and if I do, it's rarely for a comic book movie - I'm way behind on these things, even though I have nerd leanings.

Haven't seen any of these yet: Iron Man 3, Wolverine in Japan, Maybe another Wolverine one after that one?, Days of Future Past, Thor 1/2, Captain America 2... yeah. There's a lot. Gonna have to find time to blow thru a few of those without clogging up the Netflix blu-ray queue.

looks good.

wasn't a big fan of the last two iron man movies, but they were watchable. I like the thor flicks. Captain America are the best ones in my opinion. I may like them because they seem more old school action flick based rather than CGI compared to the others.

can't seem to get hulk standalone right.

I haven't seen the new spiderman movies. Just wait till they reboot all this shit. i think they are rebooting fantastic four.

Ant Man and Batman vs. Superman are going to be fucking terrible. I agree that once Ant Man bombs critically and commercially there will be a backlash.

why is everyone convinced ant man will suck?

batman v superman, sure.


But there will be no backlash bad enough to get these studios to reconsider. Ooh one out of ten marvel films bombs, big deal. And besides, read the title of the other one, Batman V superman......this will make money NO MATTER how bad it is. Enough anyway to recoup the cost or close. I do think for DC it's more important though because its supposed to be the start of their big movie projects for the next few years. But Marvel? they'll need quite a few bombs before they reconsider.

The Hulkbuster armor/fight is by far the coolest looking thing about the new Avengers film so far.

have we seen that script yet? I am mainly just bummed that the current ant man is not gonna be Hank Pym. I was hoping for the movie in which he beats Janet around while drunk. J/k

although you know..alcoholism is a big part of Iron Man's story and downey JR IS a recovered alcoholic and drug addict and yet you know..they wont' touch that at all cause Iron Man filsm are lightweight entertainment.

Seriously though the wasp is probably my number 1 comic book crush. And yeah i know she's been drawn differently across the years but in general she's been either cute or hot.

its been awhile since i've seen it but didnt ironman "recover" in the first movie

the scene where he's eating burger king at a press conference is supposedly an homage to downey's real life ... he had like $10k worth of drugs in his car and then got BK drive through and it was the worse burger he'd ever had so he took it as an omen or something and threw the drugs into the ocean

Tired of superhero shit. The Dark Knight was the peak (the 3rd was terrible), and that's mostly because of the ways it separated itself from typical superhero movies. Spider-Man was cool, a classic. Two sequels, two remakes, and barely 10 years later, and I just don't care anymore. X-Men is probably my favorite superhero IP, and even then I skipped the Wolverine spinoffs. Days of Future Past was good, but not a game changer like The Dark Knight.

We're being saturated with average to above-average films, and it's hard to care anymore. Particularly because they all follow the same formula.


Superhero movies are the generic war simulator FPS equivalent of film

The movie was only cool if you read the graphic novel and then want to see the action scenes on the big screen with special effects

I read and love Watchmen. I still thought the director's cut (never saw the regular one) was alright. the thing i minded the most were the fight scenes actually....
