So I brought it up a while ago but does anyone want to discuss more potential casting choices for the MCU characters were predicting?

Tagging @JDCabrera here. I’ve brought them up earlier for other characters but I think either Sienna Miller or Katheryn Winnick could work for Sue Storm. What do the rest of you guys think?
Jim Carrey as Dr. Doom.

You do, I'd wager 95% of people don't.


I don't think people, in this thread specifically, misgender out of malice, they do it because they don't feel the need to waste time by checking a profile before they want to say what they need to say.


What I'm saying is if the information was just 'there', the issue would be vastly decreased.
No I get what you mean, and I agree. My point was that the other 95% should consider that. It's two clicks.

But what you're suggesting has actually been brought up in staff conversation. So yeah. It's a possibility.

I am part of that 5% that always checks a user's user settings before I type. I make sure I never misgender.

If the Lizard were to come into the MCU, I want his goals and personality to come over from the comics or at the very least the 90s animated show.

Also,

Think we’ll see either Ben or Kaine appear in future Spiderverse media? Sequel, spinoff or whatever?



It’s a shame we’ll likely never see the Ditko-Lee Spider-Man represented in film anytime soon aside from the occasional visual reference here and there.
Yeah, the only thing they really take from that era is that he's in Highschool. After reading the first volume of Spider-Man from Lee and Ditko, it's kind of clear Peter's deep down a real angry at the world (and himself, most of all) type of guy, but tries his best to help good people anyway. And in becoming Spider-Man, he matures to no longer see people in such stark manners either, much in the same way so many people thought he was just some nerd. It isn't one-sided.

And he's pretty much the Mr. Solo Dolo of superheroes. But his MCU counterpart is closer to Ultimate with a bit of Miles. I just wish his connection was with Nick Fury the whole time, since that's been a big dynamic in Ultimate. It also allowed Fury to not help with too much stuff when it came to tech.

I used save states once to beat Castlevania III
Old games are hard as ****. If someone's finna give you are hard time saying save states are cheats, **** them. I try not to use them or abuse them too hard, but others might need to.

It's only really cheating if someone's doing some BS in a multiplayer game, the Computer has no feelings, it's not a Reploid or Robot Master.

When I'm feeling to lazy to jump to a person's profile to check something, I just avoid using gendered pronouns altogether.

I wouldn't get upset if someone got my gender though. It's a small mistake and ultimately not a big deal. I certainly wouldn't imply anyone is a "moron" over it.

Aw man that would be such a wicked design if he were to be in the MCU.

Unlike the TAM version...***** was up with his human-like face? :glare:

Time for a confession, folks

Take your time, I’ll hear out all of your confessions
Confession: I still have faith in Bethesda.

I feel that despite recent developments by Bethesda, I believe that they will overcome this and make things better.

Oh man, I sure want to go back to the era of stock footage and Garsey's Wing!
Nah, just give us that FotN aesthetic.

I forgot the first post of yours last time.

I think maaaaybe they'd go for Kaine at some point. Or I hope so. The Peter that dies in ITSV is visually at least, Ben. But honestly they could just use Miguel given the stinger at the end of the film. It really depends if they do something different each film or focus on the group they already made.

For the MCU, Kaine's a better shot. Though I'd rather not introduce Miles until after Peter's established himself for a while. Having them both be teens makes them both less unique. While having an Older/Younger Brother dynamic can work really well if they bothered to implement it long term in any adaptation. Something I'd like to tackle if I worked on a Spider-Man cartoon.

Pretty much this.

Same if I have any lingering questions whatsoever about what someone would ask to be called.

Whenever I call a person he or she, it's not because I'm meaning to assume their gender. It's just a reflex, honestly. I don't directly assume a person's gender.

Also with the talk of how they casted a young dude to play Spider-Man I wonder how long Benedict Cumberbatch will play Doctor Strange, What do you all think?

For my guess I'd say around a decade like RDJ since they were around the same age when RDJ first started playing Iron Man but they may have different mentalities when it comes to acting and the such.

Y'all can stop complaining that it's hard to figure out another user's gender now
Well that was fast.

*ahem*

On an unrelated note, this site doesn't have enough free candy.

So I was playing Garry’s Mod and well, one thing I found on the workshop?

The Infinity Gauntlet. As a weapon.
Confusing to figure out though.

They’re really gonna have to overhaul Miles like in Spiderverse for the MCU seeing as how MCU Peter took way too much from comic Miles to integrate him in just like that. Though I hope they do have him close to his Spiderverse counterpart since he’s a much better character than comic Miles is.

The first lady could work. Given when most of us grew up, I think it's fair to say that Sue's character traits are of a level headed mother figure. And she gives off that look. I don't think either Sue or Reed should be in their 20's. Like, post 80's FF. Not as overly logical as Reed and not as hot headed as Torch. But she can still have her own flaws. Maybe she doubts herself more at first in reference to the older comics, in contrast to the fact she can bring others up. A lack of self confidence while seeing the potential in others is an interesting take

I'm interested in how they'd handle Reed. He's my least favorite of the four, but he's a tricky character to write properly. How charismatic is he as a leader? How creative is he with his powers? How often is he blinded by ambition? If it's too often, the character then goes from being a genius to no longer seeming human.

Instead of trting to guess, use "they/them" pronouns if you don't know someone's gender.
Exactly that's why I try to use the they/them pronouns for everyone, Once when I used "Dude" in a general sense instead of a Gender specific way someone got offended so I learned to use those pronouns instead.
