    Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

    I can't say her previous work for Marvel has been particularly memorable for me, but then again I think Alan Silvestri coming back would have been the only composer who would have genuinely gotten me excited by name alone for this.

    It's not perfect, but it's an enjoyable story in its own right.

    Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

    I pieced it together tonight. It helps that there are a lot of resources online devoted to the MCU. It was in the Netflix Marvel series, which tended to be more topical and socially relevant that the feature films. Especially in "Luke Cage", where there having had been a black president was...

    Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

    As @Jake Lipson noted, basically the same tip of the hat that they used in Iron Man 2 when Don Cheadle took over from Terrence Howard as Rhodey. Part of me thought that Marvel was going to mostly pretend that The Eternals never existed. If that is Tiamut, while still massive, it's significantly...

    Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

    I still think they should have made Harrison Ford's character the brother of William Hurt's character, or a close friend. We learn in either this movie's opening or the Thunderbolts opening that Hurt's character has died heroically in defense of America. Ford's character names the new team the...

    I'm choosing to interpret it as Marvel imposing now the quality control that they hadn't been imposing in recent years.

    Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

    The title of the Huxley novel is itself referencing Shakespeare's The Tempest. In the final act, Prospero's daughter Miranda remarks: There's a certain irony behind her exclamation; she has grown up on the island and has been sheltered from the world at large. Now she joins it with wide-eyed...

    Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

    Shira Haas has been cast as Sabra, who in the comics is a powerful Israeli mutant with powers reminiscent of Supergirl: Super strength, super speed, and near-invulnerability. While she can't fly naturally, most iterations of the character come equipped with technology that allows her to fly...

    Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

    The only thing I've seen by him is The Cloverfield Paradox. It's a bad movie, but not necessarily badly made. If this movie has a better script, I don't Onah will tank it with his direction. There was no way that the first movie about a black Captain America was going to have a white director...

    It's definitely the downside of an interconnected cinematic universe; that being said, the good far outweighs the bad.

    Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

    I wish I hadn't seen this thread until after watching the "Falcon & the Winter Soldier" finale. Kind of gave the ending away...
