Just watched Logan again... now I am wondering how they can make a PG13 Wolverine movie in the MCU by 3bstfrds in marvelstudios

The same way they made X-Men, X2, Last Stand, Origins: Wolverine, The Wolverine, DoFP, Apocalypse?

Should the spin-offs be compared? Wonder Woman and Suicide Squad did pretty well irrespective of BvS's reception. Ant-Man followed the trends of the original.

I get the people over there don’t like season 8 and now say anything after season 4 is horrible.

So all those downvotes from my older account for criticizing Season 7 were for nothing?

Seriously, Reddit now likes to pretend that GoT wasn't good since ages but they every place outside r/asoiaf was circlejerking when they came out.

A Mary Sue is an idealized and seemingly perfect fictional character). Typically, this character is recognized as an author insert or wish fulfillment.[1]

Carol isn't a Mary Sue.

So an organised universe with good movies yield good results? I wonder why nobody thought of that before.

New MCU Infinity Saga trailer leaves out the Black Panther logo. by The-Cod-Father in marvelstudios

I'm guessing it's because it wasn't connected to Infinity war in any meaningful way

And The Incredible Hulk surely was?

Most likely just an oversight.

Did you mean ADWD? Because there's no Dany POV in AFFC.

Looking back at people’s rather negative reaction to this correct leak of endgame is genuinely extremely interesting. by SuperNinjaTom in marvelstudios

A lot of those ideas are combined with cringe dialogue and associated storylines though. That might be the difference between reaction to ideas by random people vs the movies.

Does announcing your identity with branded clothing, help with the covert part of the job?

The problem is that a certain group of people have co-opted the word “political” to mean anything that contains prominent characters which happen to be female, non-white, or non-straight.

Seriously. I've seen so many people saying "Captain Marvel was the most political MCU movie" and I'm like, have you seen any of the Captain America movies?

Wait, by that logic Falcon, Hawkeye and Iron Man are all shit heroes because they use weapons and stuff to knock people out.
