She wasn't conjuring up machine guns out of her hands so I don't think that's a fair comparison.

That trailer reminds me of Green Lantern. Not a good sign.

This looks pretty dumb, but then again, so do most of these spandex movies.

The trailers from last night's championship game have me feeling totally meh about this movie.

I'm getting a "first Thor movie" vibe from it. The humor seems really forced. Ms Marvel's tough-guy act is eye-roll inducing. Brie Larson is a block of wood, and people seem to have talked themselves into you thinking that she's some totally hot babe. She's cute is what I'd call her.

Yeah.  I'm normally not a "it looks shitty from the trailer" guy, but that last one left me pretty "meh".

playing jonah hill's love interest early in your career is a recipe for blowing up a few years later.

She's got a great rack.... but I don't think she's a great actress for this type of fare despite the Oscar.  She's not really a charismatic lead.  I'm sure Marvel gave her a decent script, they have a lot riding on this movie for the next phase.

 

I remember watching her in United States of Tara. Won't bitch about watching her in a skintight suit. But I think this movie will be shit-tastick along the lines of Green Lantern.

i know we've been through this several times, but marvel has a terrific track record - practically unblemished - in origin story movies they've produced.  if it's "thor 1" bad, then whatever.  i don't see any reason to think it'll be "green lantern" bad.

i'm willing to give this the benefit of the doubt until the movie proves otherwise.

I'm going to go see it so I can watch 120 minutes of Brie Larson.

If the movie itself is good then that's a bonus.

This post is just terrible.  And I mean from the beginning to the end of it.

Who would win in a fight, Venom or Brie Larson's perky tits?

Generally agree. I had no interest conceptually in seeing a Thor movie when I heard they were making one, but really enjoyed it when I saw it. Same for Ant-Man which has always struck me as the "we are out of superhero ideas" canary in the coalmine but made a pretty good movie. 

Only going to see this if the positive reviews aren't transparently You Go Girl shit. If people genuinely seem to like it, I'll see it. I just need someone to tell me what to think first.

In retrospect, Venom is quite a good film.  Worth revisiting, imo.

I can confirm: it is, indeed, a film. 


One of the films of 2017. Gonna be OK.

well, I don't think the Venom symbiote could handle the silicone in those perky tits. so tits for the win

didnt know she had fakers.  nice.

I hope it’s good. I just don’t know if she can pull it off. Marvel has been on a run of good movies about superheroes vs just superhero movies. 

I’m just getting a craptastic/overly cheesy vibe from this one. 

I went and saw Wonder Woman because Gal Gadot. I don't regret that ticket purchase.

I mean, Chris Pine helped carry it, but still.

If Captain Girl Next Door is as good as WW I will not regret the purchase, either.

I would just like to say the prolific use of acronyms to describe 20+ movies is tiresome in this thread.  Can someone post a sticky for what all this GOAT2 MOWFOR3 means?  Otherwise good discussion.

'"The thing I found so unique about this character was that sense of humor mixed with total capability for whatever challenge comes her way," Larson says in the behind-the-scenes promo. 

 

yeah that's not like a cliche at this point or anything

sure sounds like a recipe for dramatic tension

I mean, I get it. I hear ya.  But the truth is that when discussing 20+ movies in a thread, using shorthand is a lot easier than typing them all out.  If people were doing it pretentiously that would be one thing, but in this case I feel like it's almost a matter of simple survival. :)

Unlike others, I'm pretty excited about CM.  I don't think it will be anywhere close to as good as IM1 or GOTG1 but it's definitely gonna be a lot better than T1, T2, or TIH.

Instead of making your case on how it's easier for you (lazy), why don't you just define the acronyms and improve the thread?

Is it really that hard to follow? Marvel movie timeline from wiki with obvious acronyms inserted by me.

1944 Captain America: The First Avenger (CA1 TFA or CATFA)
2010 Iron Man (IM or IM1)
2011 Iron Man 2 (IM2), Thor (T1)
2012 The Avengers (A1 or TA), Iron Man 3 (IM3)
2013 Thor: The Dark World (T2 or TDW or TTDW)
2014 Captain America: The Winter Soldier, (CA2 or TWS or CATWS) Guardians of the Galaxy, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (GOTG 1&2)
2015 Avengers: Age of Ultron (A2 or AAOU or AOU), Ant-Man (AM1)
2016 Captain America: Civil War (CA2 or CACW)
2016–17 Doctor Strange (DrS or DS)
2017 Black Panther (BP), Thor: Ragnarok (T3 or TR), Avengers: Infinity War (A3 or IW or AIW)

Incredible Hulk (IH)
Spider-Man: Homecoming (SMH)
Ant-Man and the Wasp (AM2 or AM&W)

May be missing some, but come one in isn’t that hard.

CM=Captain Marvel

IM1=Iron Man 1

GOTG1=Guardians of the Galaxy 1

T1, T2, TIH=Thor 1, Thor 2, and (probably) Thor-Hulk

YMMV, SIAP, ROFLOLPMFITA, and all that.

Those dates are all kinds of fucked up. Not sure what page you got that from. 

The Iron Mans were 2008, 2010, 2013.

after calling it necessary, utee used "tih" which took me a minute as well.  he means the incredible hulk (i think).

if the names are short (1-2 words) you can fucking write it.  iron man.  wasn't that hard.  avengers.  ultron.  ragnorak.  civil war.  simple.

guardians you can say "gotg" or "gotg2".

Yup. The Incredible Hulk. 

And I was actually joking in my response. I can certainly understand how people that aren't so familiar with the movies would be confused by the shorthand.

Yes that is an absolutely absurd amount of nerd acronym with 2 variations for most.  I assume you are some IT architect that isn't allowed in public because you condescend to everyone because everyone else is stupid and doesn't speak your language.
