//clutches I feel the SAME WAY about Thor:R, which makes me feel like the only person in the world who doesn't like it because everyone else I know is full of squee. Well except T. It looked so crap! It looked like GotG 2, which I didn't like either! WHY IS THE HUMOUR SO BAD. Why is Hulk on Battleworld planet at all? I don't even like the Hulk a lot (Ruffalo is OK). WHY DID THEY CUT HIS HAIR. SUCH A BAD DECISION.
....okay Cate Blanchette as Queen of Hell looks pretty awesome. But she'll probably just get defeated in the end. And the Valkyries look neat. But no Jane, Sif, or Warriors Three? Boo. Also, I think I am the one person in the world who detests MCU Loki. MCU Thor is OK, and I like the take in comics where he gets turned into a frog, but Loki is close to my heart and I don't like the way they write him or how Hiddles plays him. I actually like the first two Thor movies -- they're gorgeous, I wish I'd seen them in the theatre -- the first one is predictable but moving, and the second one is fun even if Jane gets turned into a sexy darkmatter lamp and why the HELL did they bury Eccleston in all that makeup. I certainly enjoyed them more than AoU or Civil War. But this just looks....goofy.
We saw the Valerian trailer after that and pretty much the same consensus: movie looks very pretty, also like the dialogue and acting's gonna suck, you should see it on the big screen if you're going to see it, but turn your brain off. I kinda hate watching movies like that because it buys into the idea they're just mindless spectacle. I might see Valerian because apparently Luc Besson bet his fucking entire indie production company on it, the dumb sweet auteur. Consensus was "At least that looks better than the Thor movie." Oh dear.
The scuttlebutt I heard is that they did JL reshoots to include more Diana after WW took off which is FINE BY ME. Also, Batman's superpower being his wealth is very amusing. Also also, wet Jason Momoa.
BLACK PANTHER BLACK PANTHER BLACK PANTHER ahem. BLACK PAAAAAAAANTHER CANNOT WAIT CANNOT FUCKING WAIT
....altho I heard the Captain Marvel movie is going to be set in the 90s and she'll be fighting Skrulls. Wha? Why? Where's my tough as boots alcoholic Colonel who's overcome the demons in her life and has cosmic adventures and is Jessica's Best Bitch Forever and inspired me even when I was a kid and her costume was a glorified Sports Illustrated swimsuit?
Fortunately I think they're leaving that rape-and-baby storyline the fuck alone. They better leave it alone for Sharon too. Man, there were a lot of rape-and-lost-baby storylines in Marvel.
