Star wars and marvel are two of the biggest franchises in media. Maybe the 2 biggest

That said they only ever give us 6 or so episodes ranging between 30 and 45 minutes. Theres moments they look great, theres moments they look cheap.

Look at house of the dragon, the boys, stranger things, last of us. Those are made for similar amounts but look similar or better, have more episodes with longer run time. Also have better endings to their seasons

This is coming from someone who has enjoyed marvel and star wars shows. I liked wandavision, falcon, hawkeye, moonknight, andor, some of mando and ahsoka....hell even she hulk was enjoyable

Star wars and marvel also make money from other things which a lot of their competition doesnt. Game of thrones has no box office revenue, neither does stanger things.

Disney is a bigger company than netflix, hbo (not amazon)

All of these shows cost 100-200mil but disney gets less out of that budget than its competitors.

Caught up just now

Lives up to the hype.

God damn caraxes looks amazing

So a co worker warned me this movie scarred her

I watched it and I texted her what scarred her because I didnt flinch.

It was an interesting movie. Emma stone, dafoe and ruffalo definitely killed it.

Unique but not everything landed. Im glad it went out of its way and showed its sexuality. Was that all emma stone?

7/10

Im convinced to try it

How about the predator stuff

The ones that are considered good are old. Did they age well? Could someone in 2024 enjoy them?

None of the newer ones are good?

Please please

Have lightsabers actually be deadly. Too many people are surviving chest stabs

I don't even like Star Wars anymore and I thought it was neat although once again pointless because we already did this prequel shit before and the IP holders will never ever ever move the fuck on from that subject matter.

This is the farthest we have been from the skywalker timeline in live action.

There's literally a wookie jedi in the trailer.

Yes but the remaininder are all humans where is in the prequels majority were aliens

June has this, house of the dragon and the boys

Based on the trailer and cast list theres no white men playing a major role in this show, and considering this is a prequel and where the timeline ends up I think thats pretty funny.

Never mind white men

Where are all of the alien jedi

Go in with no knowledge, maybe you'll scream at a higher pitch than her and she'll be impressed.

She definitely wouldnt be impressed

Girl Im dating wants to watch but Ive heard its unsettling

Is it like gore/blood, psychological

I know next to nothing about this movie

Zwijn posted...

Im all for taking it slower. Still need to see The Marvels, Secret Invasion, Echo, Loki S2 and What If S2. Its becoming a chore almost.

Dont watch them. I didnt think any of them were worth watching

And im pretty sure the next thing that is good and needs these projects will summarize them in a line

Its a 6/10 movie. Not bad, not great.

Fun but terrible villain

The newest rumor is that it isnt cancelled but transformed into another project

Probably a team up of some sort

Tbf, most of those characters have had confirmed follow-ups for a minute. Bucky, Zemo, US Agent, Red Guardian and Taskmaster will all be in Thunderbolts. Falcon in Cap 4. Agatha's spinoff show should be coming this year. And Spider-Man 4 is almost definitely happening.

The only real question marks have been anything related to the Eternals (including Black Knight and Blade, who we have no idea if his movie will ever release) and Hawkeye. I believe Shang-Chi's sequel just got unofficially announced not too long ago.

Thry have confirmed follow ups but it will take 4 years. Captain america, iron man and thor benefitted from appearing every year or 2 years

Ant man doesnt sound bad. He got 3 movies and 2 team up movie roles. 5 appearances total is more than you could ask for with ant man. Wasp also got 4. That and quantumania ended closed enough (which was a problem).

Captain marvel had 2 movies and 1 team up movie role. Plus 2 minor appearances. She also ended on earth and in peace

Eternals got one movie. The movie is left on a cliffhanger, with the team split everywhere and the earth being shaken apart. While this happens an earth sized alien says he will come to judge the earth. This is a rough spot for these characters and the comtinuity of the universe. If not an eternals 2, something here needs to fill in the gap

Both of those will still get future team up roles

Yeah eternals, ant man quantumania and the marvels are their lowedt rated 3 movies and they get the axe. Maybe make better movies

Here are some characters that are are just chilling around

White vision flew off
Agatha still under a spell
Falcon has been chilling with his new suit
Bucky has been chilling and lost his arm offscreen
US Agent just chilling
Zemo chilling in jail
Red guardian chilling
Milena chilling
Taskmaster chilling
Shang chi who knows
Razorfist, shang chi sister doing crime offscreen
Eternals, john snow and blade's voice MIA
Spiderman still swinging around
Hawkeye retired?

These are just 2021 characters that have not to this day been followed up

Then theres leader, scorpion and mordo just doing whatever all these years. I'll give characters from 2022 and beyond projects some time to show up

From what I understand the captain america shoots were for action. The celestial part wasnt the issue

Sucks. I liked eternals. I do think it would be best if they were part of some sort of space avengers team before a solo project to get broad audiences into them

The good ant man movies made money

Captain marvel was never given a proper director

The answer is to make better movies

There is no reason Sony can't just cast another Spiderman to handle all the villains from the spinoff movies and leave the MCU Spiderman (Tom Holland) in the MCU. Another option is to finally make Amazing Spiderman 3, as Andrew Garfield has already shown interest in coming back.

There must be some behind the scenes deal that states tom can be the only active peter parker. Thats the only explanation for the spiderman-less spiderverse

Starks posted...

Sony's grip on the Spider-Man franchise is toxic. Just release it to Disney and Marvel.

The live action side, yes

Sony, focuses on spiderverse

Best case scenario

Part 2 was good. 8/10

Mildly overrated but a fun ass movie

I will say from a production/cinematography standpoint it may be the best movie

I dont see the chalamet/zendaya chemistry and the characters arent that deep

Also what was mysterio's plan being a fake superhero in a world with world ending threats every few weeks

Sorry for the squished title

For a genius, this was an odd decision to make

Amazing movie. Best of the trilogy

Star wars and i hate saying that, both are awesome

To be fair LoTR is pretty hard to watch. Over 3 hours without a break.

It's not a problem for those who watch it in home system, but it was hard on theater.

Lotr is much easier to follow in terms of plot and characters

I am surprised at how popular it is for how hard of a watch it is

Its no lord of the rings. Dune 2 is solid

Kradek posted...

Well that's a shame, but to each their own.

It is what it is

I didnt hate it either, it was fine, nothing amazing

How do you get a whole squad on a worm with a tent and pregnant woman

How do you get off?

Only didnt like kenobi here. The other 3 were great

Moon knight and falcon say complete first season. Thats interesting

How competent were those 3 with windu anyways

Kradek posted...

Blasphemy.

I liked the core message, the struggle of the daughter. The scene where they were rocks was cute.

That said the humor was too whacky for me. From the buttplug fight to hot dog hands. I appreciate the swing and will always respect a movie that tries something unique but I had to force myself through it

6/10

Darth vader is still being rebuilt. Yoda is equal to or stronger than palpatine. They can both manhandle clone legions. Even if vader was ready, obi wan has shown in episode 3 and the show that he can beat vader comfortably. There should be no inquisitors around to deal with

Bonus just needed to get a hold of ahsoka, baylan should be around, the guy who did the voice of jar jar

Timothee chalamet did something all of us would do

leave zendaya for florence pugh

Dune is intersting, the lore is deep, it deals with deep themes, its pure sci fi

I had an ok watch with 1 and a good watch with 2 but you couldnt get me to watch either again

ZevLoveDOOM posted...

i remember the Harkonnen being this huge menace in the first movie. seems like they got nerfed as hell here... lol

Yeah they definitely jobbed quicker than i expected. I was expecting a big battle not a one sided beat down. Im not complaining

This is the second time thanos easily disposed of drax

This probably the best made movie Ive seen in terms of production, acting, talent, attention to detail and keeping a consistent universe.

It isn't always fun to watch but on a technical level, shooting, cinematography, audio, themes it balances, ambition. Not everything hits for me and it isnt close to one of my favorite movies but I love the swings that it took

Is the coming dune tv series connected or seperate

For dune 2 you need to have watched 1 but you dont have to have liked 1

It may be even more dependent than harry potter 1 to 2

Killmonger posted...

Could I watch the second one without watching the first one?

I dont think so. I think these are 2 of the most connected movies i can think of

I give this an 8/10, improvement over the first

Attention to detail is like unmatched in terms of visuals and worldbuilding

The harkenans (I didnt spell this right) kind of went out soft.

Batista reminded me of the wrestler heel run....but jobbed

The first worm ride was intense to watch

Austin butler was awesome

I watched thr first a few months ago. Liked the lore, the visuals, the acting. Didn't care for the characters. I landed at a 6/10. My date straight up didn't like it outside of visuals and thought part 1 was a 5/10

She was absolutely floored by this movie, said it was one of the best experiences in theatre and gave it a 10/10. Austin butler being her standout

I enjoyed it more as it is a better movie. Seems to have more and better humor. Some of the world building stuff is done and it can move ahead. Paul has more development and his internal dilemmas are shown well. Action is good. Love the way the sci fi is done from having to take water out of corpses or the way they walk in the sand. I have next to no flaws with the movie. If someone described what this movie is and does Id think I'd love it...but I settle on like it. Usually Im good at explaining what I didnt enjoy but here I can't. I still had a good time but its more "its a good time" than "best theatre experience ever". I land at an 8/10 but 8 closer to 7 than 9. I thought batista and pugh were underutilized a bit. I still dont see the timothee/zendaya chemistry. Austin butler was the highlight. Oscar isaac is still missed

Kradek posted...

Everything, Everywhere, All At Once is a strong contender for that title as well.

Did not work for me at all

Assuming canon events aren't just cope, I assume it's just an adaptation on a multiversal scale where Miles in 42 would have initially had to deal with that shit, but now that Miles in 1610 got bit things have been adjusted to compensate, much like how 1610 Miles probably would have been the next Prowler if he didn't get bit.

I interpreted it as miles became prowler because spiderman didnt exist in that universe to keep the captain alive.

I still hate multiverse but this is the best multiverse movie

I dont know what to drop but logan deserves a spot
