  1. I don’t know anything about the series and I’m not particularly into anime, but dang. This movie is doing numbers.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Yeah that’s not gonna happen and they aren’t correlated in any way.
  5. I read the whole “Thunderbolts*/New Avengers” thing as a cheeky way to combine those two teams/arcs. On the Thunderbolts side, you’ve got a couple sketchy characters and some reformed villains, on the New (or Dark) Avengers side you’ve got The Sentry/Void as the actual Big Bad. Contessa reads like a stand-in for both Zemo and Norman Osborn.
  6. Contessa's been around in the comics since the Jim Steranko Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. days (late 60s), but she hasn't been a major player in about as long. In the comics, the Thunderbolts were brought together by Baron Zemo. Wouldn't that have been interesting.
  7. Yeah my sense was that it was meant less as “this person’s death is meant to have an emotional impact” and more “we are setting the expectation that these characters are expendable”. I’m not current on which actors are signed to what contracts, so the only character death that would have been really surprising to me was Bucky.
  8. It didn’t strike me as intended to be a gut punch, it struck me as a tone setter. There aren’t many MCU movies/shows where someone dies that isn’t in service to some other character’s arc or the plot. She was collateral damage. I was kinda surprised that USAgent and Ghost made it all the way through.
  9. Watched this over the weekend. Favorite MCU movie since 2019.
  10. Is this based on a comic?
  11. On Everlasting; last week, on a complete lark, I got the name “Pronto”.
  12. I, uh, also enjoy ttrpgs. This is one of my favorite alternate settings of all time, to a game that very few people played, was mechanically flawed, and still holds a place in my heart.
  13. Actually I was expanding on OG’s description of the comic as “True Grit in space with a dog”.
  14. I didn’t say it was. All I said was “this is based on a book that was really well received”. If folks consider that a controversial statement or something worth having an argument about, that’s their issue(s).
