same Clayface
I was wrong

**** yeah
never doubt the powers of Marvel being able to hype up the majority of the population with ease
To be fair, being on the Wii U didn't help either.
**** flopped and was hard to mod.
aye the Wii U tried and failed to live, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t keep ****ting on the little failure for having to be carried by the 3DS

Something I should also not is that Smash 4 lacked content for casuals as well. Run was fine but Tour was just...

Like Brawl sucked competitively but the amount of content for a fighting game was out of this world, hell it even beats out some currently relevant FGs (like base SFV)

Brawl (and Ultimate) honestly beat out every fighting game that isn't Mortal Kombat 11 or Soul Calibur 6 in terms of content.
Maybe SF6 can join that club based on what we've seen.

Tbh it is legit sad that a 2008 Wii Game is more complete than a lot of these modern FGs. The Capcom model of DLC was a disaster.

But I do got hopes for SF6, you can finally be the Fighter from Streets Street Fighter.

Me trying to figure out how the Eternals, Spidey and Deadpool are gonna be a part of this whole Phase 5 and 6 cluster****:

Does make me wonder if the MCU is finally starting to run out of its steam.

Thor: Love and Thunder did have a 67% drop in the box office. Doctor Strange 2 apparently didn't even reach a billion and that had bit of a drop to.

easy…Spider-Man has nobody to love him, which means he can just do whatever until the world forces him back in (and Freshman Year being in a different MCU timeline helps as well)

Deadpool will just Deadpool his way into doing Deadpool things for the MCU

and Eternals…idk…stay in space and do that whole punishment thing that’s meant to go down, while Black Knight teams up with Blade

$900 million for a movie banned in some counties over a minor lesbian acknowledgment isn’t something to treat lightly

I gave up on watching the MCU a good while back.

While they're entertaining, but they just crank out too many too quick to keep up and enjoy.
Especially when they're starting to tie some of their shows and movies together as a means of probably getting more viewers for both.

For example WandaVision and Doctor Strange 2.

For what it's worth I did like all post-Endgame MCU movies I saw.

Which was FFH, NWH, Doctor Strange MoM, and Thor 4. Haven't seen Shang Chi and have 0 interest in Eternals and also haven't seen a single show with the exception of 1 episode of Loki

Eternals would've worked better as a Disney+ series honestly. What it should had been.

You can't have an over 2 hour movie that focuses on 10 characters at once. At least as a mini-series it would had the option to explore them all more.

Not that it matters anyways given Eternals was a boring snorefest. It eternally put me to sleep (Pun intended).

So for the F4 film do you think they’ll bring Krasinski back for Reed or try a different actor since I believe he’s from a different universe?
Most likely Krasinski. From what has been seen by folks. He was born for the role of Mister Fantastic.

If they replace Krasinski I’ll be livid. That’s one of the most perfect casting in the MCU.

I’ll agree with people that the MCU has become a tough watch now because of how MUCH there is. Honestly tho, Marvel is my jam. I’ll be keeping up with it until I die probably.

If no other MCU shows can get to ya…Ms.Marvel, Moon Knight, and Daredevil…those are the most recommended I give that won’t be acceptable advice gives considering me
Marvel are cowards for not making a Spider-Man vs Big Wheel movie
Sony too busy making a Big Wheel movie in secret

I’ll be watching their content in Heaven (same with DC)

I admitedly haven't been following the MCU that much lately (I wasn't that crazy into it it the first place), but I'll also typically ride along with my folks if they want to see the latest films and whatnot.

Otherwise I kinda just pick and choose, though even then they're not typicaly that high priority with a couple of exceptions (No Way Home in particular was one I couldn't miss, and that was sure an experience)

Spider-Man brings everybody worthy together after all

Not gonna lie, he felt a bit off to me in Doctor Strange 2 at first, though that might also be from writing not putting him in the best. Maybe he might fall into the role better in future films

I wasn't too big on Krasinski as Reed Richards, but It was probably just because he wasn't in the movie for very long. I saw someone mention William Jackson Harper as Reed and now I can't get that idea out of my head.

I really think they should cast a Romani actor to play Doom. Marvel has done an okay job not whitewashing characters (The Scarlet Witch situation is a bit yikes), Although the fact that this is still a thing that happens and has to be considered at all is wack.

your mom
I am finding it increasingly hard to care about the seemingly endless Marvel movies.
Same. Especially since Love and Thunder disappointed me hardcore.
Multiverse Saga ends with these 2 films
Well **** now I have to watch all of the other **** movies and shows, Kang is one of my favorite Marvel villains.

But if these movies don't go out with a bang then I'm officially dipping out for everything that isn't Spider-Man and maybe the inevitable X-Men reboot. No Way Home was the only post Infinity Saga project I came out of completely satisfied.
