S-T Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 I'm listening to Episode 32 of WFP, and @James D. and @The Master are discussing DVD sets for the 90's Marvel cartoons and how the obstacles to releasing seem insurmountable. With Disney Plus it has all worked out well. I've got a big backlog of TV shows to watch. Plus Netflix and so forth, so I'm basically never going to catch up. It's a good problem to have.

dc20willsave Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 It honestly just hit the right combination of things. At that point, Disney was still a year off from buying Marvel. A handful of different studios owned stuff (conincidentally, Disney had some distribution rights to a few of those at the time). That said, looking at the larger catalog, there's still some stuff we're unlikely to see on Disney+ anytime soon namely the 67 Fantastic Four series (Hanna-Barbera still owns that), The Spectacular Spider-Man (Sony produced it), or The Marvel Super Hero Show (because the animation on those is ROUGH and who even has nostalgia for them?).

Missy Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 That's a shame about Spectacular, 'cause that is easily the best Spidey cartoon I've seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Dude from Lovecraft Country is cast as Kang in Ant-Man 3. Looks like they're leaning into the time travel. Yikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missy Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Bringing Kang into Ant-Man 3 risks making him the butt of jokes, thus kneecapping him before he can get out of the gate, but I trust they can pull it off. My hope is that he somehow rids The Avengers of the ability to time travel. So that from now on their actions have consequences that cannot be undone with a trip through time. If anything, Kang will just have a minor cameo a la Thanos in The Avengers. Making him the (or a) main villain in an Ant-Man movie seems too small a role for him.

Davedevil Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Not the easiest choice for me to see but she definitely made Orphan Black the great show that it was, so I'm looking forward to what she does with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dc20willsave Posted September 23, 2020 Report Share Posted September 23, 2020 Disney has pushed back basically their entire release schedule which also means that Wandavision is going to be the only MCU representation in 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missy Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 Probably not the right thread but, meh. I wasn't going to rush to watch the Marvel / Disney+ 616 docuseries, but considering all of the online chatter about the Dan Slott episode, now I gotta.

Davedevil Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 I haven't seen the episode yet but the snippets people are posting of Slott's professional habits are beyond damning. I can't believe he's been working on Marvel's highest profile characters for over a decade now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donomark Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 Oh my God, I've fully known about Slott's buffoonish procrastination habits for several years. Shit was legendary during his ASM run. Christos Gage is a better writer than he is, and he filled in every three or four issues it seemed. Slott literally had to have his Twitter password changed by the Marvel editors because he was so distracted. So a lot of this is me going "Yup, that's totes true."

Wow. That is awesome. Honestly, the best use of Carnage is in an R rated horror movie. I said this before, but Harry Connick Jr. would have been perfect as Carnage. I was thinking he would be too old for the role, but he is 6 years younger than Woody Harrelson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missy Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 I fear Deadpool III will be Wade skipping across 20th Century's Marvel multiverse, killing everyone along the way, and it will be up to a Wolverine (and possibly Cable) to stop him.

Missy Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 In fact, I'm thinking a Wolverine (and possibly Cable) will connect with various Marvel assassins to form X-Force to hunt Wade down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-T Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 I'm putting the whole thing in a spoiler tag. I don't think my post spoils anything but better safe than sorry. Spoiler This would explain how Rhodey healed so quickly from the catastrophic back injury he sustained in Civil War. https://www.ign.com/articles/secret-invasion-big-reveal-marvel-fans-freaking-out I still can't believe Marvel spoiled War Machine's return in the TRAILER for Infinity War. Such disrespect for the character! I've been a Rhodey fan since he was Iron Man in the 1980's. He was the one wearing the armor on Battleworld in the Secret Wars storyline.

Dread Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 My guess is by the end of Secret Wars, we'll see Chris Evans' Captain America (maybe even his Human Torch too), Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man, Jackman's Wolverine, and Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man as members of the Multiversal Avengers. It all kind of makes sense. Of course, Hemsworth and Ant-Man/Wasp, a Marvel or two, maybe Michael B. Jordan as a different universe's Black Panther and some representative of GOTG will also probably be represented. I mean, if you're gonna do the thing, DO THE THING. Right?
