  1. I'm tempted to offer a 10% premium on your sticker price if you'll pm the offerings to me first so all this goodness doesn't vanish east.
  2. I predict it will gross less than the other two. I'll see it if I'm wrong.
  3. What I want to see is Silver Surfer 4 brought to panel-for-panel life as an animation with art indistinguishable from the Buscema brothers & voicework using Stan's word for word dialogue, all the goofy faux Shakespearean lines included. If Disney put out that sort of product, I'd never again care about watching human actors play these roles.
  4. Maybe this will reduce budgets & produce better product? Folks will lose their careers, I reckon. Live entertainment might flourish. https://www.foxbusiness.com/entertainment/tyler-perry-halts-800-million-studio-expansion-due-ai-advancements
  5. Is Lewis really up for this role? I thought that was just this-thread-bs.
  6. He is a whisperer, isn't he? Maybe Javier would be good as DOOM or GALACTUS.
  7. Clint Eastwood might be my favorite actor but he isn't our best.
  8. It's a personal judgement or feeling like 'pistachio ice cream is the best.' So I *feel* he has demonstrated the greatest range across the most diverse projects for the longest time & is able to vanish into his roles. He isn't the Tom Cruise brand or Brad Pitt brand; rather, he is his characters. The DDL brand is acting excellence, imo.
  9. DDL is our best living actor. Plainview his most amazing character.
  10. The bigotry theme is the XM. A well-told XM tale shouldn't ignore it.
  11. I'm pleased with the confirmed cast so far. Pedro will make a good Reed. I was concerned they might cast him as DOOM. IMO, DOOM should never be maskless. Therefore a formidable voice actor needs to play him. I know whispery acting is popular right now. Pedro is a great whisperer - so is Javier Bardem - but my preference is something more like this for DOOM [& Galactus]:
  12. This is too strong a claim. I wanted to focus on the aging fanboy bit & made it sound like the She-Hulk message was the single, direct cause of the MCU collapse. That message was part of the collapse to be sure but good old fashioned poor storytelling has been the much greater part, I reckon.
  13. I don't know about expanding demographics but I can plainly see the expansion of what's currently celebrated as good old family entertainment: X-rated sex acts.
  14. This business about expanding demographics so as to outlive the aging fanboy is silly. From IM1 to Endgame, Disney's MCU demographic expanded so far that it included all demographics. That was a remarkable achievement. Post EG, we've all observed Disney intentionally demean and reject the aging fanboy demographic that created the original possibility for IM1's success. The result has been a destruction of their remarkable achievement. Today, no demographic wants to go to a Marvel movie.
