I believe that is meant to be Riot.
“Turd in the wind”
Amy Pascall: Ear your heart out, Deadpool!
That movie looks a turd in the wind.
Infinity War is out on digital now FYI
Its Riot, theres also Scream and either Scorn or Phage (SDCC footage apparently showed all three but the last one people only said was "blue" which could be either of them since Phage is kind of green-blue and Scorn is purple-blue)
Is the long haired addict looking guy supposed to be Carnage? Haven't been following Venom at all, first thing I saw was this trailer.
The VFX on the Blu-Ray version of Inifinity war look a bit better than they did on the big screen, at least it seems so. Nice to see.

Video might be a trolling.
I'm still convinced this whole Gunn situation is a smokescreen by Disney. Everyone on the Right is pissed they immediately fired Roseanne and everyone on the Left is pissed that they DIDN'T immediately fire Lassetter. Now everyone's focusing on this, and this is gonna be completely forgotten once they release Guardians 3 with Taika Waititi in the director's chair and it goes on to get a solid 80% on Rotten Tomatoes and rake in around a billion dollars.
It'd be really cool if they re-hired him, but it's not like they have literally any reason to from a business standpoint. The cast is under contract and, as evidenced by the way they handle Star Wars, it doesn't matter what the consumer wants as long as they keep consuming. It fucking sucks, especially since we literally already had this controversy back in 2012 when they announced he was going to direct Guardians 1 (although ironically, that was the social justice crowd asking for his head; funny how times change!)
Shouldn't that bottom left one be "Mass Effect Andromeda is the Game of the Century! Only idiots will hate it!"
If the shitload of accounts solely dedicated to screeching about how [NEW THING] is terrible and ruined my childhood forever are anything to go by, it really does.
Yeah, my youtube recommendations are always infected by one or two videos of the [POPULAR FRANCHISE] IS RUINED FOREVER variety. I tell YT to get that shit outta here. For the most part, Marvel has been immune to too much bandwagoning of that type, though, I think?
I can't wait for that hallway fightscene
In DD season 3, I don't know what I'm more looking to be answered, how he survived in Defenders or the explanation of his absence throughout everyone else's season 2's.
Given that netflix's time with disney is up in a year, it seems there's gonna be a lot of closure going on, unless something changes.
I think this was more a case of disney wanting to avoid anything smacking of racism dealt with almost every episode than "integrity of cocept".
or more likely having to deal with deadpool fading away as a pop icon.
I have to say, even if I never cared much about Venom in the first place (like the whole Marvel comics line, to be completely honest) and I think the design is leaving a lot to be desired, I'm kinda interested.
I just like the movie's main premise of what appears to be an average man coping with a murderous and morality-free alien parasite as they both try to survive and reach some kind of "relationship".
I think it's something new which I haven't seen in recent comic films and something worth of a watch overall
If there's one nice thing to say about Venom, it's how hard they're committing to the 90's Lethal Protector style and nothing else. We're not gonna get a broken, cancer-ridden Eddie Brock. It's not gonna act as a metaphor for addiction and abuse. It's just gonna be Tom Hardy eating brains and spitting out retarded dialog, and I'm surprisingly okay with that because it looks stupid as hell in a surprisingly not horrible way.
That "turd in the wind" line is so laughably bad, it reminds me of shit like this:

Which makes me think it might actually turn out to be some pretty enjoyable schlock. Sucks we couldn't get Tom Hardy with this design showing up in the MCU though, but who knows what they'll be able to retcon after Avengers 4.

"Nobody’s defending his tweets, but this was a smear campaign on a good man," he said, explaining that Gunn was targeted by right-wing activists due to his political beliefs. "I spoke to Chris Pratt the day after it happened and he’s a bit religious so he wanted time to pray and figure it out, but I was more like: f*ck this. This is bullshit. James is one of the kindest, most decent people I’ve met."
"Where I’m at right now is that if [Marvel] don’t use that script," he continued, "then I’m going to ask them to release me from my contract, cut me out or recast me." That's a pretty extreme response but it's hard to imagine Marvel still plastering Gunn's name all over Vol. 3 after firing him and finishing his trilogy without him. Bautista's response to that? "I’d be doing James a disservice if I didn’t."
I love GotG and I love the MCU but I really hope this violently blows up in Disney's face if they don't at least bring Gunn back as an associate director/hands-on exec producer.
That's cool of Bautista. Not sure if he purposely aimed just for the script because he knew Disney won't go as far as giving Gunn the director seat back.
Looks like the Guardians will stay dead then.
Not really though, they probably already come back in Avengers 4.
I'm sure he cares about the script. As he said, he signed up expecting his character to be directed and written by Gunn (and consulted in teamup movies like Avengers).
Also, I haven't read the scripts, but the films are the best of the whole MCU in terms of theme, structure and character development, I think Bautista recognizes that
Nah. Bautista has been known o die on any hill where clean principle is involved, up to and including telling Vince McMahon to fuck off. It has a great deal more to do wit Gunn's character and his makeup than the vehicle he's currently in tow with; not discounting Gunn's ability and work sensibilities, but this is a character (OOU) issue and much as it is a character issue (IU).
