    But it was a harmless pick.  They can STILL pick one of the other actors you suggested in future movies.  It is the multiverse after all.  I think it was a nice nod to the fans to give them something they wanted but not something that they we tied to for the next 10 years.

     

    ***If Krasinski does become THE guy then I will agree with you (I was never a fan of him being Mr. Fantastic)

    Totally agree with both your points!

    Your first sentence makes Krasinski sound like the wrong choice, but by the third sentence I felt like you were actively selling me on Krasinski as Reed.  Reed being boring is almost his entire schtick, so I can't fully decide if you're saying that you're all in or all out on the choice.  :insane:

    Sorry, that's what happens when I write stuff when I'm not fully awake.  I know the internets wanted Krasinski to play Reed for the past several years. So they catered to the fans and went with the obvious/boring choice. However, I think they could have picked some really cool actors to play him: Dev Patel, John Cho, Rahul Kohli. I think Marvel had a chance to use some really great actors other than Krasinski. 

    My last sentence I was just saying that although I truly enjoyed the movie, it had some narrative flaws. That's all. 

  3. I enjoyed the final season. Even the ending worked for me. When you analyze that final "shot" and look at how it all lead to moment, it makes sense. But that final moment represents is very depressing and disheartening: family before EVERYTHING.

  4. I enjoyed the first episode. I think Isaac is perfectly cast so far. I can see how this show might be a little less reachable for some people who are not familiar with Moon Knight. His multiple personalities, a quasi-batman, Egyptian stuff all combined does him a character that less accessible compared to other comic characters. My wife watched the show and had a lot of questions. Unlike Wanda, she could wrap her head around, "OK, she has witch powers," or "Vision, he's a robot of some sort." (Yes, us comic fans know Vision is not a robot, but he's grounded in something more concrete than a guy who thinks he's possessed by an Egyptian god.)  I think my wife, and other people like her, will come around if the TV show keeps it momentum.
