Two Marvel teaser trailers in a row? Best week ever lol
It sounds like, "ruk, ruk, ruk, ruk, ruk." Instead of the more pleasing kick drum sound of, "gzarruk, gzarruk, gzarruk, gzarruk."

Not sure what I think about this.  Gonna be uber pissed if - like many other streaming services - DisneyOnDemand isn't licensed to broadcast in Canada.

My apologies if this was already mentioned, but this is a very large thread.

I saw Infinity War last Weekend, and I found it extremely entertaining.  I found the character of Thanos very intriguing.  I did some research because I had a nagging question about the movie.  It is in regards to his goal of killing 1/2 the universe and his new power.

To me, the movie shows him as an almost likeable character as it seems his motives are pure and good.  He is doing the thing no one else will to ensure the survival of live in the Universe.  Wether that is a valid goal, cause, or motive is another discussion.  I also read on another source (perhaps older comics??) that Thanos is doing this to earn the romantic favor of Death.

if his motives are what is proposed in the movie, and he has practically infinite power in the universe, why kill 1/2 of all life?
When he didnt have the Infinity Stones, his course of action was limited....manually kill off the life to save resources.
But now he actually has the ability to snap his finger, and reallocate and create resources. 

Why kill life to save resources, when he can now create resources to save life?

Oh shit, you're right!

Yeah we did discuss that a little while back, and the thrust of it was: Thanos has gone mad. He became so obsessed that his way of doing things was right, he's unable to see that with the power of the gauntlet he could help in other ways instead.

Ariich is a freak, or somehow has more hours in the day than everyone else.

...or that his newfound power is not truly "unlimited," which it isn't, and he cannot actually use it to simply create the limitless resources that it would take to sustain the potentially limitless population.

I think the reality is likely supposed to be a combination of both:  His power, although extensive, is not limitless, and he cannot singlehandedly address and remedy the problem.  AND he is insane, and so is his plan.

Just finished Luke Cage Season 2.   Very interesting ending.   I'm moving on to Iron Fist 2 tonight.  Looking forward to the twist ending that everyone is talking about.

Yea, from what I've read about season 3, it should be really good. Supposed to be pretty dark and he's back in the black rags instead of the official costume. Lots of personal turmoil.

Venom....yea. Odd stuff.

Tom Hardy is actually really great as Brock/Venom. The rest of the movie is just garbage though. The script felt like it was written in 1998 and not updated since. I get that some people think it may have been an intentional homage to that, but that doesn't excuse it.


Best scene is the 2nd post credits scene.

Interesting thought regarding Avengers 4.  This is just my speculation, but still, if people don't want to hear speculation about what might potentially happen, stop reading.  Since it is just speculation, it isn't a spoiler.  But my thought process was triggered by something I read about information that was leaked about some toys.  So, here goes...

The leaked information mentioned the Avengers, Rocket and a new crew, and others fighting a "new foe" and "even greater threat."  I guess there is apparently lots of speculation going around about who this bigger threat could be.  But I don't think it really matters for the bigger point I am about to make.  Let's just assume for a moment that there is some "bigger threat" looming--i.e., bigger than Thanos. 

Now, here's the thing about Thanos:  he was one of those villains that legitimately saw himself as doing something "good."  He was a zealot for his cause.  And he viewed his cause as a benevolent one designed, in his mind, to ultimately "save" the galaxy. 

So, what if a threat arose that sought to destroy the galaxy?  How would Thanos react to that?  For his flaws and the twisted nature of his plan in Avengers 3, complete destruction would obviously run contrary to what he was trying to accomplish.  So...what if he were to basically "team up" with the good guys?  Not a traditional team up.  But if there were a legitimate threat that was too powerful for him to stop, and he ultimately decided that he needed the help of the MCU heroes, that could explain the expected "resurrection" of everyone wiped out during the snap. 

Again, this is obviously just speculating.  But something like this would actually be a palatable way of bringing folks back, IMO.  I certainly wouldn't hate the idea of something like this.  To me, it is more palatable than some sort of time travel through the quantum realm, which seems both too obvious and too contrived.

Anyhow, that's my theory.

I think that's a pretty good theory. In the comics, similar things have happened a number of times actually. Thanos has teamed up with heroes quite a few times. I hadn't considered that for this, but I do like it.

And to tie it back to Dr. Strange's "this is the only way" statement, maybe the battle had to play out this way because Thanos winning by some other means other than the gauntlet being severely damaged and him taking Stormbreaker to the chest was the only way the galaxy was sufficiently weakened for this "bigger threat" to emerge and for him being too weakened to challenge it without the help of the good guys.  Or, at least, it's maybe the only way he looks objectively at his own limitations and decides to undo the snap.
 Maybe?

It's a cool theory, just trying to bring to mind what could possibly constitute a bigger threat that would require the Avengers and Thanos with the guantlet.

The reigning theory (and that's used VERY loosely) is annihilus. I'm not putting this in spoilers because there is NO evidence for it. Which I super duper hope it's not. Annihilus works in the comics, but I can't see him being a movie villain, and the his wave would just be a huge pointless CGI army, which I want to avoid if possible.

The movies, so far, have followed the spirit of the comic books faithfully.  (In the sense that, when I watch a MCU movie or TV Series, I feel like I'm watching something "in the style of" a comic book.  The way it references other things in the universe without necessarily needing to get that issue...etc...etc)

That being said, there is something that comic books have gotten away with for decades that I don't think will continue to work on the big screen.    The "bigger baddie".    You can only ramp up the tension so much before it becomes overblown.   You create the universe's most powerful villain.....until we create an even more powerful one.      I honestly don't know how comics got away with that for so long and still managed to keep a decent amount of tension.   

But then again, there isn't really anywhere else to go but up.   And they haven't done anything really bad yet.    But I just feel like the other shoe has to drop at some point.    This has still been an unprecedented theatrical achievement as it is.   I hope it never stops, but I feel like it might hit a big pot hole in the road in the next couple of years.

I would love for a great version of Galactus and Silver Surfer. But they're still owned by Fox. So unless there's something we don't know (and they've already said the merger won't impact this movie), Marvel can't touch them.


Whoever it is, I hope it's not a big CGI army.

Not familiar with Cosmic Ghost Rider.

Why did I think Marvel did get access to the Fox assets??

Edit: Kinda sorta. But not for A4 clearly.

I wouldn't call it really strong, but a big improvement and had potential for a really strong season 3.


I actually wonder if all the shows will be cancelled in the next 1-2 years since Disney's streaming services is popping up around then.

I'm debating seeing Venom this week or sometime next week. I don't expect good things, but IMO Venom himself looks very cool and since he's one of my favorite Marvel villains I gotta at least see what they do with him...

I still want Dr. Doom as the next villain. I think the MCU could cook up some good stuff with Doom over the course of numerous films. I would love to see Galactus but I'm just having a hard time imagining him on screen. Plus we won't get to see Odin and Galactus headbutt each other  :lol
