That's honestly who I though it was to begin with. Was so confused.
If deadpool 2 is anything like deadpool & cable I'm gonna laugh my ass off from watching it

He's credited as "computer nerd"
A shitty non-canon companion novel is the one who tried to say that
So it looks like [url=https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2017/08/08/disney-will-pull-its-movies-from-netflix-and-start-its-own-streaming-services.html]all the Marvel Netflix series might be all ending soon[/url]:
[quote]Disney wants to own a bigger piece of the streaming pie.
The company announced during its latest earnings report on Tuesday it intends to pull all its movies from Netflix.
Instead, Disney plans to launch a branded direct-to-consumer streaming service in 2019 starting in the U.S. and expanding globally.
CEO Bob Iger told CNBC's Julia Boorstin Disney had a "good relationship" with Netflix, but decided to exercise an option to move its content off the platform. Movies to be removed include Disney as well as Pixar's titles. The new platform will be the home for all Disney movies going forward beginning with the 2019 theatrical slate, which includes "Toy Story 4," "Frozen 2," and the upcoming live-action "The Lion King." [B]It will also be making a "significant investment" in exclusive movies and television series for the new platform.[/B]

Iron Fist hard reboot please

Not that I think they would seriously reboot the Netflix series, but to humor the idea if they did, it would be nice to see better incorporated MCU references besides the Avengers attack and references to "The Green Guy" or "The Flag Waver"
So many companies are trying to have their own streaming service, it's defeating the point of cable cutting

Well they did name-drop "Tony Stark" and "Captain America" in Luke Cage. Plus the [sp]Judas bullet[/sp] was made from Chitauri metal. There was also a [sp]Judas bullet[/sp] in Agents of SHIELD, so at least we finally got other parts of the universe referencing the Netflix stuff even if it is just a minor quick nod to a major plot point in Luke Cage.

There was a kid straight up wearing a Captain America costume on JJ, it's past simple namedropping
Not sure if this just PR speak for not wanting to to detract from the upcoming Marvel Netflix shows or not, but they said this during the Earnings Call:
[quote]Iger says they have not yet decided if Marvel and Lucasfilm will be included in the Disney-branded streaming service. They may still continue to license those rights, include in the same service, or give the properties their own platforms. Talks are ongoing

Next question is about the apparent absense of Marvel and Star Wars titles from the new streaming service

[quote]Iger says he's had a great relationship with Netflix. He says he's definitely still open to working with them in the future (notably still licensing ABC tv shows) but they won't be streaming new Disney and Pixar films when the new service launches

Next question looks to confirm Disney's relationship with Netflix

Yeah I forgot about that, good point.
Watching Guardian Vol2 at my house was just as good if not better than the screening I saw at the theaters. Fucking great sequel with orgasmic visuals.
I feel like I'm the only person who liked gotg 1 better than 2.
[QUOTE=Ardosos;52557355]I feel like I'm the only person who liked gotg 1 better than 2.[/QUOTE]
Really?
7/10 people I ask IRL say they prefer GotG1 because of the universe exploration and multiple locations but just because GotG 1 is really good doesn't mean GotG 2 isnt, it just depends on if you prefer your film location driven or character driven.
I liked Groot better when he was big
I just think gotg 2 went a little too far with the "goofy" stuff. That scene where they're on the ship going through all the jumps, and their faces start morphing, that's when I knew.
I think they still managed a great balance of seriousness and goofyness, though. I was about to cry at the end of the movie
They made drax too goody in vol2. He barely added anything to the story, and was kind of just there aside from that sad scene with mantis. Only negative I have about the film.
Yeah, Drax felt too childish, though Vol.1 was basically having him a bit serious.
Still good though, with Mantis scenes. Funny shit.
I think baby Groot was a bit overdone in a few parts. That prison key scene was pretty funny when it began and then I was like "can we please move on?"

the biggest loss is how shitty black bolt looks. seriously. his costume looked fine as is and could have gotten the daredevil tv series treatment

So wait, if you nickel dime a TV series or movie, it ends up looking like shit? Oh no, someone better tell Ike Perlmutter before he does the same thing to the comics division. :zing:

all the budget was spent on the IMAX cameras
so, can anyone who's been following the inhumans more closely shed some light on why it looks so lame? are the people working on it inexperienced, bad, or just misdirected by someone higher up the chain? and/or was the whole thing rushed, as well?

Scott Buck.
And why is Scott buck bad
[QUOTE=VenomousBeetle;52558646]And why is Scott buck bad[/QUOTE]
Fans of Dexter don't like him because they claim he ruined what Dexter was about. He's also the guy behind Iron Fist.
I thought Inhumans' was Ike Perlmutter's pet project that he got to keep when the whole split went down. Basically the whole reason we're not getting this as a film anymore and a lousy low-budget show.
