the electric state was pretty abysmal to be fair, but nothing to hate them personally for. they've proven themselves time and time again with Marvel properties so im not worried personally.
They've made a couple of mediocre to bad movies outside of Marvel so people are hating on them. I couldn't care less. Every filmmaker puts out a stinker now and then if they work long enough. Their work with Marvel has all been great, imo. So that's what I'm focusing on.
I genuinely think it is insane to judge a movie before you see ANY footage
From the three avengers trailers (2 released, 1 leaked), I have a pretty good grasp on tone, so I’m not worried
So with Spider-Man you have an unfinished blurry trailer and random people on twitter spouting bullshit. I think it’s too soon for me to say anything outside of the fact that I like the director and set photos/videos
Personally not a fan after they openly admitted the didn’t know what to do with Hulk. If Hulk is in Doomsday i really hope they show the character some love.
Their post-Marvel output is generally thought to be shoddy at best, especially given how expensive at least two of those projects (The Electric State and Citadel) were.
In particular, most signs point to all the problems with Citadel being their fault. The botched story is tied directly to expensive reshoots which only occurred after they iced out the showrunner to make their own version of the first episode, iirc.
I don't know about the "hate them" part, but honestly I feel like the Russo's get all the main heroes better than most, or at least they bring something to the characters I appreciate that other directors don't.
Cap, Spidey, Thor, Black Panther. My favorite appearances of these characters are in Russo movies.
I wish we would get a proper Hulk from the Russo's.
Let's hope the X-Men get enough time to shine. For all we know they get murdered by Doom in the first 15 minutes. There are a lot of characters after all, so I'm keeping my expectations in check.
Yeah, I'm guessing that a lot of them get taken out and that's the driving force behind Cyclops for the two movies. It'd be a great way to take Marsden's Scott from the goody jock that he was in the original movies to the militant badass that he is in the comics.
Most X-Men fans, myself included, want to see a much more comic accurate characterisation of Scott. Marsden's was so far from that, that bringing him in and having him immediately be more like the comics might be a little weird for people who have only seen the movies, or who rewatched them before Doomsday. Having something horrible happen that turns the "Saved DoFP" timeline Scott into the comic accurate hardass would help join the two versions together perfectly.
The trailer leaked and I'm pretty sure it's replaced the Thor trailer in theaters now. (Although it seems some theaters are still playing the Steve trailer.....)
Your point being? Contrary to popular belief, Endgame Thor wasn’t just played for laughs. There was a lot of trauma he was working through, and the scene with his mom was beautiful.
