    In it to win it hopefully not finish last.

    Is there anything preventing someone submitting it for a Green Label or downgraded Blue?

    I don't care who gets what cut of this, I'll be skipping it because I don't want this to start being a trend with movies in theaters. I want to see the whole movie the first time out, not missing bits and pieces that I have to go back and see later.

    Sticking with the Star Wars Films Analogy, I'm thinking this would shape up to be more like Rogue One. Fleshing out the back story and filling in essential pieces that work to explain how we got to where we started.

    Interesting that they showed the Skywalker history in the order in which the previous movies had been released and not in the chronological way they would have occurred in universe. I'm guessing that Red-Sabre Rey is her "Cave of Dagobah" moment.

    I imagine we'll start to see more of this from other streaming providers as a way to hold on to customers. I'm surprised we haven't seen it already, tbh.

    Is there anything preventing Sony from still referencing events that unfold in the MCU, even going forward, into their version of the Spiderverse?

    It was fun while it lasted.

    Is this going to become a "thing" now? First it was the DVDs now they're doing it in the theaters too?

    I'm the same way many times in taking traditional characters and forcing them into an Anime format. Same here. I think trying to make this in the Anime style, especially if trying to connect it to the past work, would be a mistake.

    Interesting, although I'd much rather him tell a new story using different characters from the Marvel universe, than reusing these existing ones. I'd prefer to leave this story (Legion) as is.

    Finished the season this weekend. (I'd have been done sooner, but decided to start back with Season 1 and watch it all again) A great season to end what has been a truly great show. The cinematography has been just amazing. I've especially enjoyed the music and how it's been used, especially in the last few episodes, mainly because they're still fresh in my mind. That Rap battle was fun and totally unexpected. The segment with Pink Floyd's "Mother" was great. Using "Happy Jack" (The Who) as the song to end the series was a great tie in to the first episode of Season 1 where it was used to begin it. I also really liked For me, this has been one of the few shows that I feel told an incredible story and completed it at its natural end and in a way that left me very much satisfied with the result.

    I could understand and sympathize with his position if they were building Condos on the location or strip mining it, but they're building a telescope - an instrument designed to explore, investigate, discover and increase our (including the Hawaiians) knowledge of the universe. Now instead of just being important to the Hawaiians, it will help the whole of humanity learn more about itself and its place in the universe.

    And his High School Sweetheart. And that one guy who was a total and picked on him but is now working at the local Mcdonalds.

    Fair enough

    So are they just releasing everything under the Disney brand now? What's the problem with having a separate label that allows them to release projects such as these? Is it possible public backlash? Is the public not smart enough to figure out that if it's not branded a "Disney" picture that it might not be for families/kids?

    Ughh, if only I could forget. I have a really strong dislike for her portrayal in all 3 of the movies. I'm not a big Anna Paquin fan, which probably didn't help either.

    I think if you were talking about a television series / streaming show, you might be right, but the movies are something different. Many of them told their own story and were only tangentially related to the Infinity Saga via an mid/end credit cut scene, of which a majority of the movie watching public probably missed because they walked out when the credits started to roll. Most people didn't go see Thor:Ragnarok, Black Panther and Captain Marvel becuase of their connection to the Infinity Saga; they went to see a well-done superhero movie. The fact that it could tie into the Infinity Saga was just a bonus - a novel idea that hadn't been done in such an overarching scale before. As to your last statement, I think that the MCU has earned enough goodwill at this point that most people, being that it's a Marvel movie, will give it the benefit of the doubt and give it a shot. Whether or not it's a good movie is something still to be determined and will have a bigger impact on whether or not it gets close to the $1B mark, rather than it's lack of a greater story line or superhero fatigue.

    There were a lot of things I would have liked to get from that auction. Unfortunately, I just don't have the cash to spare right now.

    There's a big conditional in that statement "... that everyone was happy with...". Seems most likely.

    They've had 1 so far. I wouldn't exactly call that a ton of success. For clarification - I'm not hating on the DCU. Just bringing up a point.

    Means I can pick up shares of DIS cheaper today than I could yesterday.

    I gotta agree with @Jaydogrules on this one. By the time they get something going with Namor and released, there will have been (at least) 2 Aquaman movies out. The general public will just see this as Marvel trying to copycat DC - regardless of the history of the character from and in the comics. It'd be a hard sell to the movie going public that this was anything different. It's the same reasoning I've seen used for why a Moonknight movie would get a hard time getting off the ground (too much like Batman, regardless of the popularity - or lack thereof - of the character).

    Just . . . .why? Have we finally run out of ideas now that even these movies need a redo?
