    Default Marvel Cinematic Universe (NO SPOILERS ALLOWED!)

    This thread covers the entire Marvel Studios Universe, from movies to Netflix to ABC... if it is in continuity, it counts.

    And if we could... let's not turn this into a DCEU vs MCU thing. Or a "come in and bash 100%" thing.

    Keep all spoilers behind spoiler tags until a sufficient time has passed before the movie hit WW release please.

    I started my Marvel marathon late (there are so many movies now and with kids... its hard to get them all in). Got 4 more movies left in 3 days, probably just going to skip GoG since it has no real baring on CW.

    Still think the Frigga funeral is the most underrated scene in the MCU.

    Might be. I feel it gets overshadowed by the (understandable) angry reaction to killing off an underutilized female character which seemed to have unexplored potential, just so the Odinboys can bond over manpain...but it i a beautiful scene, with Brian Tyler's score rising in place of dialogue, Loki's quiet freak-out in his cell, and the incredible dream visual of those flaming boats sailing off the edge of the world for the souls held within to depart.

    While it's nice for The Dark World to embrace the very Kirby-esque motif of 'ancient aliens' with Asgard being a thing of weird, advanced science, sometimes it's better to just leave things as magic. This is one of those times.
    The X-Books Board is wretched and does not deserve the Domino Appreciation Thread.

    .
    The score was on point, especially in place of the dialogue. It was perfectly done IMO.

    But yeah, wish we got more Frigga in Thor to flesh her out a bit.

    I wish we had gotten more of any Asgardian not named Thor/Loki/Odin and seen them really fleshed out .

    At least Sif got a few Agents of SHIELD appearances. Maybe one of these days they'll do a Warriors Three One-Shot...

    I have re-watched a lot of MCU movies except Iron Man trilogy and Ant-man. I've a feeling Cap's trilogy is going to be the best of all the other characters.

    After Ragnarok I hope we get a Journey Into Mystery Thor in Phase 4

    Great post about Frigga's Viking sendoff, Craig. Beautifully done by Branaugh and his crew. I wish they had kept Rene Russo around as Frigga though.

    So you've not seen GOG? I have to admit that for me GOG and Ant Man movies were the ones I was most ambivalent about going to see at the theater. I considered waiting for release to POV on cable. But my nieces and nephew wanted me to go with them along with my brother so I went. I was surprised how much I enjoyed them. With GOG I guess the only thing you might want to see is the easter egg at the end. But it was great to see the Nova corps too.

    No no no I have seen all the movies and own them lol.

    I am talking about re-watching at home on blu-ray before CW comes out. I still have 4 movies to go (WS, GoG, AoU, and Ant-Man) but only 3 days left before CW so I won't make it. So I am going to leave GoG out because it really doesn't effect anything in this movie.

    Waiting to see how they do Captain Marvel's costume. Hopefully they unveil some art at SDCC.

    I sure hope so. If we don't get something, then I'll have to kill a puppy with my bare hands.

    Anyways, I just started a Captain America marathon yesterday. I watched Captain America: The First Avenger, and it was great. Peggy and Steve have some real great scenes.

    I actually prefer the MCU to the comic universe and got into non-X comics because of the MCU.

    And if we could... let's not turn this into a DCEU vs MCU thing. Or a "come in and bash 100%" thing.

    Yeah, it's funny how Marvel has had a cinematic universe for longer than WB/DC has but until now only the DC subforums had threads for their movies. It was almost like Marvel fans didn't want to talk about the cinematic universe. Even the X-forums had a thread for the X-Men movies for a while now. Better late than never, though.
