Why do you hate opinions.

On a video game forum. You figured me out.

This is EXACTLY what people mean when by "The Grifterverse". This article: "According to information shared by Cryptic HD QUALITY on X, the screening produced mixed feedback, with noticeable highs and lows throughout the film." Also this article:

sigh I am not trying to start arguments, I am pointing out (again) how often the first reactions to these movies are overwrought doom-mongering. Don't interact with my posts if you don't like what they contain. Or do, I don't think I'm the Forum Police. I really, really wish the forums had an actual block function. Alas.

Since you seem to think you have special knowledge of my thoughts and motivations: what possible utility could I derive from getting forum threads about superhero movies 'shut down'? Re: the trailer - it exists. It does not provide enough information for me to have an opinion about either the movie itself or my desire to see it. However based on *gestures at every other superhero movie thread*, it's probably going to be fine. Satisfied?

I shared what I wanted to; I think it's premature to judge movies based on trailers. See the threads for FF: First Steps and Superman (2025), both of which feature some of the usual suspects crapping on the trailers only to change their tune after the movies came out. This might be my favorite example: Catch you in June 2026.

Nobody's talking about the movie. Trailers aren't movies. Nobody's trying to shut down the conversation. Some people are contributing to the conversation by saying that drawing conclusions about a 2+ hour movie that doesn't come out for 6 months based on a two minute trailer seems premature. It's literally the same exact conversation that happens every single time a superhero movie trailer comes out.

Exactly.

Praise be.

Then folks should start using less political sources. [redacted by GoolgyMoogly]

This trailer seems to be a cheeky nod to complaints about certain changes made to characters between page and screen. It’s also incomprehensible to me, so maybe it’s also a nod to “they put everything in the trailer”. I get the sense that part of playing the role of Wonder Man will involve the actor gaining superpowers. It’s nice that they’re giving Simon Williams a rest from being constantly embroiled in Vision & Scarlet Witch drama. He deserves his own story.

I don’t know anything about the series and I’m not particularly into anime, but dang. This movie is doing numbers.

Notably, his last (very brief) on-screen appearance was in Endgame, during the Return to the Battle of New York bit. I recently rewatched All is Lost, and he is astonishingly good in that, especially considering how little dialogue is in that film.

I’m gonna be honest, absolutely none of what you’ve written in this thread makes any sense to me. Thor is crying in Deadpool & Wolverine because Deadpool is dead. That’s it, that’s the joke.
