I am hoping it is not Gandalf, not that I don't love Gandalf I just think it could be a more interesting and also more faithful direction. This has reminded me that discussion around the LOTR films were some the first I was involved with on this site which was over 20 years ago.

Loved the first two episodes and agree with what everyone else has said. The look and feel of middle earth is just right. The music while not quite hitting the heights of Howard Shore's LOTR score is pretty good. I actually like the actress playing Galadriel which is a tough task as Blanchett...

I think Sam has summed up pretty well how I feel about it overall. Anytime I get to spend a couple of hours escaping from the real world into the MCU I am almost certain to enjoy it and this was no exception. I agree that it is not as good as Ragnarok although I probably like Ragnarok a little...

I seem to remember this being the case in the animated Doctor Strange film. I agree with your comments and shared your level of enjoyment in the film. This isn't what I wanted for Wanda. She has suffered so much, parents killed, experimented on by Hydra, brother killed, is forced to kill the...

I don't even know where to start, but I will say if you have interest in seeing the new Spider-man then I think you will have a good time. I can't wait to hear what everyone thinks of it.

The timing will be interesting with Eternals coming out on 5th November.

I have always found the extras lacking on the MCU films so I can't say I am surprised, but it is disappointing. Didn't even get a directors commentary which I believe all the non Sony ones have had until now. I agree with you about the date, I guess it is to fill in one of the weeks between What...

That looks really good. At this point though I would even be down for Rogers: The Musical and I don't even like musicals.

That just drives home how much I have missed going to see Marvel films at the cinema.

I agree with most on this. I really enjoyed the show overall, but it definitely could have used at least one more episode. It has been a pretty impressive start for their first two Disney+ shows.

Feige must be like the proverbial kid in the sweet shop/candy store.

That looks good.

My comment on the Raft was more about it being under Ross' control and certain stories from the comics that could lead to.

Belated thoughts on episode 4 and episode 5. There has been something slightly off about Walker right from the outset, even down to how he looks in the suit. I am sure they put a lot of effort into getting it to look just how they wanted and much like the position of Rogers replacement it looks...

The Ayo appearance was cool. It is a character we have seen very little of, but makes the world feel connected without feeling small. T'Challa didn't want Zemo dead, but I don't think he would want him running around up to who knows what either. The rest of your point is well made, but makes me...
