Capeshit thread (comics and movies)

I imagine it was probably like a quarter of the budget.

[Lindsay's Liver]

Their "Secret Invasion" series starring Samuel L. Jackson was coming out in June, now it's been pushed back. Their next Brie Larson movie has apparently been pushed back multiple times and is now set for November. I hope it all bombs.

At this point, it seems like only the most die hard of the die hards are rooting for this stuff. Everyone else is having fun seeing the giant stumble and crash.

So all we're gonna see in the first half of 2023 will be Guardians 3 and the second season of Loki.
If those don't get pushed back as well.

Guardians 3 is guaranteed to be a hit - were I an exec - that’d be one of the few properties I’d have some confidence in.
Their problem is Gunns done after that - as are the cast, plus Chris Pratts been cancelled for wrongthink.

Guardians 3 will be a hit, for sure. It's the only thing scheduled for release that reminds anyone of the old MCU.

The movies tried to take after the comics, but there's one thing that they miss out on. They can't keep their most popular characters going forever and ever. Actors get old. Actors have contracts. Actors will want to be paid what they're worth. And when your most popular characters disappear (because the actors' contracts were finished), that's a big problem for your $500 million dollar movies.

[VoiceOfReasonPast]

They should've never done them live-action, or at least implement a James Bond system wherein any given character isn't tied to a particular actor.
The way they're replacing characters with more diverse replacements is dumb since they're literally skipping decades worth of story material in favor of the woke modern shit that no one reads. And if anything they're tying character and actor closer together than ever before because nowadays everyone has a magic nanotech helmet that they take off all the fucking time.

Almost went in that direction with Hulk - but that seems to have been abandoned.

You know your franchise is shit when even normalfags are starting to not like it.

That was seven. He has a cameo in Rise of Skywalker.

Could've been part of the contract all along.
Point is, he came back for Han Solo to be irrevocably killed dead and that to happen in the first of the Jizzney shit flicks.
Perhaps his attitude towards appearing in the third turd was a bit relaxed because he finally got his wish of a dead Han he harbored all those years.

[CuckTurdginson]

The notion that the reason Ford tried in TFA is because it’s the one where Han finally dies never ceases to amuse me.
