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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as soon as all those leaks came out of the real path - and I started looking closer at the released photos - I had my concerns where they were taking it. And they didn't disappoint.

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.

D84 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) Well, that was mediocre. At least it was better than WW84. Edited July 10, 2021 by D84 jason4 and Bosco685 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least abomination wasn’t a chick may as well be how terrible a job of him they did. Not liking what I have seen of the character in the Shang-Chi screen shots either.

bpc3qh Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 I'm glad this film exists, and I was glad to watch it. It wasn't perfect, by any means--the villain was underwhelming, the opening scene (especially) was overdone, and some of the drama was overwrought. But after waiting 16 months for this movie, I was happy to see it.

D84 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Also, can we move away from song covers that sound like the singer overdosed on ambien. That rendition of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" was painful. Bosco685 and Xenosmilus 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I did recognize it the first thing I thought was are they ripping off "The Batman" trailer with the Nirvana track. It was cool there though!

Popular Post I like pie Posted July 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2021 I liked it Taskmaster is a 3rd rate villain to me, so the movie version didn't bother me at all.

There is a fricken trend in Marvel trailers/movies playing remakesof 80/90s songs, making them insanely slow (trying to dark or moody or dark of edgey or something) with women as lead singer/singers and they just sound hella strung out Just saw B W last night and it reminded me, oh there they go again. Age of Ultron had one and the other trailers or movies that have are eluding me currently Edited July 10, 2021 by Icculus308win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
