I saw go smaller, not bigger.
Norman Osborn, Wilson Fisk, Victor Von Doom.

Ummmmm....has anyone looked at the cast list on IMDb for the Dr. Strange sequel??

Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield and....Ryan Reynolds...

Don’t fucking tease me like that.

Rumor posting or user updates.

Disney Investor Day just dropped info and trailers and casting and announcements for like 20 new MCU projects.

Fantastic Four!!! Weeeeeeeeee!!!!!

I saw that, along with an Armor Wars icon that folks haven't talked about much yet. You know what that means.

[Tom Foolery]

Armor Wars starring Don Cheadle. And they didn’t say who else was in it, but kinda like Tim Roth is coming back to be in She-Hulk, it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch to have Sam Rockwell come back as Justin Hammer for that one.

Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special!!! That’s the sort of madness I expect from James Gunn.

Once the rhythm of this thing gets into full swing, we’re gonna be getting like 3 films and 3 TV shows a year.

Wasn't DOOM one of the antagonists in the original Armor Wars story?

Wasn't DOOM one of the antagonists in the original Armor Wars story?

I don’t think so? After he figured out his tech was being used by villains, he took out the Beetle, Stilt Man, Controller, etc. Then he went after the hero, Stingray, which put him on SHIELDs radar. So he took out their Mandroid armors. Then he went to the Vault and took out the Guardsman armors and fought Captain America(he was just The Captain at the time, USAgent was Cap then). Then he went to Russia and took out Crimson Dynamo and Titanium Man which caused an international incident, so the US Military brought in its big gun, Firepower which ended up destroying the Red/Silver Centurion armor, and Stark designed what would become the NeoClassic suit and came back and whipped Firepower in like 30 seconds.

Well I guess my excitement was unwarranted. I had in mind the cover of Doom & Iron Man grappling hand to hand, not sure what story that must have been from....

EDITED: Google advises the story was called "Doomquest".

Finally watched Venom. The trailers didn't do much for me, and I kind of forgot about it. When I was up in Alaska, one of the girls I worked with started a conversation about super hero movies and suggested I give Venom a chance. I thought it was ok.

[jjreason]

Yep agreed. Ok was the very best it was though & it was redeemed in part by the Woody cameo at the end, at least for me.

It was a great Marvel movie 15-20 years ago.

[vynsane]

how are we not talking about WandaVision yet? is everyone able to watch? all caught up?

[jjreason]

Yep. It was pretty obvious she was creating her own little pocket universe there with her powers, I just wasn't sure if she was being coerced into it or not - held hostage & drugged or just dealing with her trauma in her own way. Sounds like option B based on Monica's utterance at the end of the last one. It has been weird but enjoyable.

[Diabolical]

Happening so soon after Endgame makes me wonder if it is a mental break after losing Vision, or if it's a new threat.
Could be both.

And it is cool to have Darcy back.
