  1. apparently there were two deleted scenes featuring Throg. One where he's fighting Loki and another featuring Chris Hemsworth's voiceover.
  2. well keep in mind this was the "good" version of the character. The others, maybe not so friendly.
  3. I'll claim this if no one else has yet.
  4. Take It Both copies cover A
  5. Surprised no one mentioned Goodfellas or Casino. I never get tired of watching these two.
  6. I remember when this came out in theaters, I thought about seeing it but for some reason didn't. Came and left theaters pretty quickly too. I regret not seeing this on the big screen in 3D; actually used 3D in a thoughtful way that was relevant to the story.
  7. To me, I prefer Dredd over Raid. Granted, a big part of it is seeing an accurate potrayal of the character. Still I wish they would do a sequel to Dredd.
  8. Not sure if anyone mentioned it, but Fargo is excellent, especially the first season.
  9. I told myself that if TM was what the rumors were, I was going to walk out of the theater. I honestly thought about doing it. I only stayed thinking maybe some post credits scene would show it wasn't the real character. I moved a lot of my copies in the past year or so hedging on the fact they were going to royally screw up the character. Sadly, I was right.
  10. I believe the female TM is just a one off. In the Ultimate line, he was a black male, which is why everyone thought OT Fagneble was the popular choice. Instead he was just used a red herring, who basically didn't advance the story nor was he really necessary.
  11. I like how the MCU has handled most of the characters, esp the villains. They put a spin or a twist on them and it makes it a little fresh and contemporary. Unlike a lot of people, I liked the Mandarin twist since no one saw it coming and the Ben Kingsley is a great actor. I mean, using a comic accurate Mandarin might be considered stereotypical in today's woke age, so in hindsight that might've been a good move. But in BW, I understand it's focused on women superheroes. But to change Taskmaster so radically, just for the sake of changing the character seems shortsighted. There would have been a lot more long term options if they remained accurate to the comics. The character has a large following, it just seems Marvel hasn't capitalized on him as much as they should. He's been featured in animated series, lots of action figures, statues, and video games. He's progressed from a cocky, wise cracking villain to a goofball anti-hero in the deadpool runs. Nowadays he seems to be written somewhat between those two ranges. However, he's never been depicted as a mute Terminator type who looks like a cross between VR Troopers and Snake Eyes. Complete fail. I went back to read some of the reddit discussions over the past year or so and some people apparently saw the early cuts because they accurately predicted most of it. However, it seems they cut or added in a new ending, because there were different endings where Ross steals the design for his own Taskmaster. Would've at least given us hope for a decent TM in the Thunderbolts movie, instead of mute Snake Eyes knock off.
  12. It’s not. It might be worse than the hulk, IMO. At least abomination wasn’t a chick
  13. I went to to the first showing in my area and saw it in 3D. There was literally 10 people in the place and to make matters worse the air conditioning wasn’t working, so it was like sitting in a sauna. At least i got a refund and saw it for free, but I really wish I just saw a better movie.
  14. I heard a rumor they were doing this to the character over a year ago so I sold a number of copies including a 9.8. Totally butchered the character; I’d rank this near the bottom of MCU. Yes even below captain marvel
  15. Take Xmen 11 A and B
  16. considering two 4.0s sold on ebay for $50K+ in the past couple weeks, I'd say this is a steal. seriously, a tiny piece of tape cost $10K? LOL
