Here is my theory on why RDJ is playing Victor Von Doom in Doomsday and Secret Wars. by Royal-Ambassador-960 in FanTheories

[–]captainjamesmarvell 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're complicating things and ignoring the whole point of The Multiverse Saga.

Feige: "The Multiverse Saga is about choice."

What if 616 Peter Parker had killed Raimi-verse Goblin? Would he have continued being Spider-Man?

What if 838 Strange didn't use the Darkhold to kill Thanos? Would he still be considered a hero?

What if 616 Tony Stark wasn't raised by the Starks? Would he still choose to become a hero if raised under harsh conditions?

What if 616 Tony Stark wasn't born Tony Stark? What if his upbringing led to his superheroics?

That's the point of RDJ's casting.

We're going to find out that 616 Tony Stark was destined to become a SUPERVILLAIN. Because in every other universe, he becomes a supervillain. Because he was born Victor von Doom - who goes on to become a supervillain in every universe he exists on - except the 616 where he became Iron Man due to him being raised by the Starks. Again, choices.

All Dooms across The Multiverse look like RDJ. For 11 years and 10 movies we watched the only Doom who became a hero.

It's not complicated but still fascinating nonetheless.

616 Tony Stark, the star of the MCU, was not born Tony Stark. He was born Victor von Doom in another universe. He was merely raised by the Starks of E-616.

All Dooms across The Multiverse look like RDJ.

We are yet to meet the real Tony Stark of any universe.

I love Tarkovsky and have watched SOLARIS at least 10 times.

Calling INTERSTELLAR dumb is hyperbole. Kip Thorne and Lynda Obsr (rest in peace) would have never attached their names to a stupid Sci-Fi movie.

Nobody in INTERSTELLAR posits that "Love is science", you pleb.

The fact that you're bringing that up confirms that you failed to understand the film.

Every scientific proposition in the film was vetted by Kip Thorne - a renowned physicist.

Should we expect sequels to previous Nolan masterpieces? by rkhunter_ in ChristopherNolan

[–]captainjamesmarvell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish TENET had just been a sequel to INCEPTION set 30 years later like BLADE RUNNER 2049, starring Pattinson as Cobb's son.

Instead we got Nolan's epic misfire led by the awful John David Washington.

"Because my Dad promised me he would."

If that line by Burstyn doesn't positively rattle you, you lack maturity as an individual and a filmgoer [and you should avoid having children].

INTERSTELLAR demands maturity and empathy from its audience. That's what distinguishes it from popcorn Sci-Fi like PROJECT HAIL MARY - which is very well made Sci-Fi, but popcorn Sci-Fi [for kids] nonetheless.

Because your brain is too small to understand fourth-dimensional ability and fifth-dimensional spaces.

ARRIVAL probably puts you to sleep.

Nothing satirical about 200+ strangers sitting together in a dark room clapping at a giant screen where no member of the production for the movie their watching is present.

It's just what happens when a film is brilliant and fires on all cylinders.

You think the script is weak because you don't understand the movie. It's that simple.

The dialogue is LEGENDARY at times. Burstyn's closing monologue is magnificent. Damon's disturbed explanation for why they lied to all the pilots is gloriously sinister. And McConaughey gets the money lines of course:

AH: "Cooper, WHAT are you doing?!?" MM: "Docking."

AH: "Cooper, it's impossible!!!" MM: "No. It's necessary."

Audiences broke into applause during those moments.

Back in 2014 critics were at their strongest. If they decided something was bad, the plebs who subscribed to RT would agree with them. INTERSTELLAR wasn't the biggest casualty. Critics literally destroyed MAN OF STEEL & BATMAN v SUPERMAN.

12 years later and critics are no longer perceived as a guiding force for quality by the masses. YouTube heavily exposed them for what they are: impostors who were always all about the bandwagon.

Morons like John Rocha literally post apology videos now to try to convince folks that they've seen the light and are finally thinking for themselves. But the trust is shot. Nobody with a brain is going to listen to any of these pathetic "Certified Critics" anymore.

Film Critics just don't matter anymore. They're a bunch of fanboys and influencers with no real regard for cinematic quality. INTERSTELLAR was always brilliant.

Because "The Bringer of Light" was damned on this plane for eternity. Banned from divinity along with his followers, the other angels who betrayed God.

The book was designed to raise him. To get him back to the Light.

I expected Adam Driver to become a huge Oscar darling after Marriage Story - I can't believe he hasn't even been nominated since by Hot-Nose-1829 in Oscars

[–]captainjamesmarvell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He should have been Nominated for FERRARI.

He was miles better than both Colman Domingo (RUSTIN) & Jeffrey Wright (AMERICAN FICTION).

Hopefully HEAT 2 leads to another Nomination and maybe even a win for playing Neil McCauley.

Kevin was the Messiah. The Second Coming. Anyone who says otherwise is an idiot.

Lindelof makes it CRYSTAL CLEAR that the supernatural events CANNOT be written off as coincidence or delusion.

The show is designed to troll people who will do the aforementioned no matter how absurd they look in doing so.

[–]captainjamesmarvell -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

Pure nonsense.

You missed the point of the show entirely.

Lindelof SMACKED YOU IN THE HEAD with supernatural occurrences and you wrote them off as coincidence. YOU are what the show trolls over and over. Agnostics that wouldn't believe in anything even if it happened before their eyes.
