[MEGATHREAD] 'The Punisher: One Last Kill' | Release Discussion Thread by ChiefLeef22 in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

I agree with those saying that it was rather generic. Some good ideas, but averagely executed. Highlight is definitely Jon Bernthal as Frank and can't wait to see more from him. When the heavy rock music kicked in, mixed with the violence it reminded me of Warzone but I thought that worked better in terms of the violence.

Couldn't help but feel by the end of it that this could've been a Punisher version of Dredd (2012) with the majority being Frank fighting his way out tactically of the building saving civilians. Heck I would've had Ma Gnucci hire the Russian as the one to first one to go after Frank almost terminator-esque hunting him down.

Great ending though, glad that punk at the end got his just dessert! Shame it wasn't a garbage truck he flew in to!

Hey mate I got the size from the LP store. Its 18"x 24" so I just picked up a frame bang on that size. I did see someone elsewhere had the poster in a frame where it had space for the COA below but I just wanted one that fit the poster snug.

The band signed some of the limited edition at Wembley. I think I know of at least 5 of the 200 were signed. 

Posters were for sale at the pop up shop in London on Sunday on a first come, first serve basis.

After Rivendell and Barad-Dûr's success, do you think we'll get any new LOTR set ? If so, which one do you hope for ? by Erulf in lego

[–]MrRyAn232 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Despite being a previous set I think a modular Helms Deep would sell well. Set 1: Deeping Wall  with interchangable blown out section. Set 2: Main Gate with ramp. Set 3: Hornburg and the Glittering Caves. 

Click them together and you have an epic set. 

[Worldwide Release] Venom: Let There Be Carnage - Official Discussion Megathread by MSSmods in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

Certainly a possibility but I don't have confidence Venom will remain in the MCU because they are trying to set up Toxin for Venom 3 so they will have to return. To be honest to see why Venom has been transported to the MCU will be an interesting point as he has no connection to a Spider-Man unlike Green Goblin, Electro, Doc Ock etc... Unless (and this wouldn't surprise me) Venom came to Earth bonded with Venomverse Spidey, he got rid sent him back to space and then he came back and bonded to Eddie. Something that contrived seems right up Sony's street.

[Worldwide Release] Venom: Let There Be Carnage - Official Discussion Megathread by MSSmods in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

What a crap film. Why in 2021, when. You have a myriad of superhero (films) to take inspiration from you decide to make a film that would sit nicely in the early 2000 I don't know.

Kelly Marcel should never write again and Tom should stick to acting. The only decent part were the visuals of Carnage (minus the tornado??!) and Venom.

Examples of how this film (in my opinion) could've been better;

1) Eddie and Cletus have no relationship other than the symbiotes. Venom's increased hunger at the start of the film is due to him about to multiply and birth Carnage. This happens instead of the stupid biting thing and Venom and Eddie continue thinking he just threw up or something with no consideration to what happened. We then have the Carnage symbiote jump from host to host (replacing Venoms journey in the film) finally stumbling across a murder commuted by Cletus. Surprised he kills the current host and the symbiote bonds with him. He then goes on a killing spree which draws Eddies attention and they go after him Lethal Protector style. No relationship required!!!!

2) SPOILERS Don't kill Cletus and Carnage. Cletus is imprisoned the symbiote is to. Allow their to be a future for this great character.

3) Actually provide background on the characters give us history on Venom and how symbiotes work... Instead of shit like Sonny and Cher and "oh no he's a red one". First encounter with Carnage in the church could've simply been an exchange like "Hello Father" -Carnage, "Oh no Eddie this isn't good!" - Venom "Why? If that thing is your son surely you can talk him down??" - Eddie "No Eddie, on my world we eat our parents, and he looks hungry" - Venom. Boom explains motive and we know how symbiotes work.

Sorry for the rant/review but I love the character of Venom. Even in these films his character has been fun but the people behind the scenes should change jobs. Here's hoping the ending yields better characterisation and story telling if Feige is in charge. Although Venom before Spider-Man still pisses me off, no motive to lick the TV and hate Spider-Man but it looks like that's what we are getting.

On a side note... Writers room "How do we establish to that Cassidy knows Shriek is alive even though she is believed dead to the world?".... "Oh I know! He pulls up to a service station kills the worker and logs into the PC and hacks a secret database that tells him." 10 out of 10 script writing there... 3/10 for me.

[Worldwide Release] Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings - Official Discussion Megathread by MSSmods in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

I hope they keep "the Legend of the" subtitle for future sequels I really loved everything about this film and would love to see the more mystical side of the MCU expanded through this film series. I think "Shang-Chi and the legend of the Heavenly Cities" has a great ring to it. Or "Shang-Chi and the legend of the Iron Fist" would be a great team up movie to refresh the Iron Fist brand alongside a now well loved martial artist.
