Why?

Not a fan. Though if I like The Marvels then obviously my opinion is subject to change.

I liked her direction in Candyman; the story of the movie was weak, though, but we can't blame her for that.

Candyman 2021 is a huge step down from the original as that’s one of my favorite horror movies but it’s not as bad as I thought it’d be. I liked Little Woods and I’m cool with DeCosta getting another chance. At the very least, she’s more interesting a director than most of the other Phase 5/6 directors besides Cretton and definitely better than say Jon Watts.

 

I don’t think Coogler will direct Secret Wars for pretty obvious reasons. I wouldn’t be opposed to Peyton getting it, as I really dig Ant-Man and the Wasp, though Quantumania looks boring.

Candyman was excellent in my opinion, and the direction is great, so I’m all for Nia getting the big film. Depends on how Marvels does at the box office and review wise though.

I feel silly but I’ve only just realised this:

I totally forgot about this trailer

Notice the tagline on that poster 👀

[keysersoze123]

It does not appear that ticket sales will start this week. Too soon for this movie which does not look like a uber opener. Probably will start presales post MLK or week after that. 

[Krissykins]

That’s a nice poster actually.

Is it just me, or has anyone been noticing this trend fairly consistently the last couple of weeks?  Nothing huge, but I'm seeing it popping up pretty regularly.  

[WittyUsername]

I forgot that the writer for this also wrote for Rick and Morty. Why has Marvel been so crazy about Rick and Morty writers lately?

Yep, it's always on trending since the last few weeks. Also, cool poster!

[Menor the Destroyer]

Very nice looking poster, better than average.

Spoiler

That tagline was in the leaked trailer description I mentioned earlier, so that is indeed real. Can't wait to get some cleaner shots of helmet-clad Kang and a proper look at what's under MODOK's mask.

 

[JWR]

Pretty decent poster.

Aren't Twitter trends personalized based on your account activity? Like there's also the generic "United States Trends" and I haven't seen Ant-Man pop up there outside of trailer launches.

Because if anyone knows anything about unfunny quips it’s Rick and Morty writers.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick and Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existencial catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a Rick and Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.
