    The fact that Yost is involved makes me anticipate the worst.

    I actually love Kat Dennings and co, but at times in Thor 2 it felt that there were two incompatible movies happening at once.

    Also, on the Dr Strange front, McAdams is now rumoured to be playing
    Night Nurse rather than Clea.

    Edit: ah, that info comes from Latino Review. Feel free to disregard it.

    It would make since with their fear of any powerful women as female leads. Got to always have the normal humans who are cold and tough, but will still need rescuing in the end.

    McAdam's character needs to open up a competing nursing franchise with Rosario Dawson's character from Daredevil.

    I know some of you don't like fanmade videos, but this one is worth watching. It doesn't recycle footage but uses original animation similar to the first part of the ending credits of Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

    Not too shabby! He misspelled Feige, but other than that I'm suitably impressed.

    I didn't spot the misspelling. Good eye.

    I really hope the Civil War trailer is attached to The Force Awakens. I would really like to see the trailer on the big screen and I thinking the timing would be right for the trailer to drop.

    I think the only 100% lock will be Rogue One on The Force Awakens.

    I don't think that will be a lock considering Rogue One release date is a year away. If anything, might get the teaser of Rogue One that was shown at Star Wars Celebration this year. However, I do hope I'm wrong and we some footage of Rogue One and it included Darth Vader leading Stormtroopers. We never got to see a liveaction Darth Vader in the helmet and cape in his prime.

    I like Kat Dennings, but she's in 2 Broke Girls which makes According to Jim look like Cheers.

    Right, it was definitely teaser I was implying, not full trailer. And while I'd love for them to use the Celebration footage, I think they'd make an original one...

    I could see them using the C7 teaser as the intro or stinger to the teaser, since they seemed to go through a lot of trouble to render the moon at a proper scale to the Death Star, etc.

    Plus the fact that it was contained on a dedicated projection system that was escorted in and out under guard and not put online heavily implied they have plans for it.

    But since Disney is handling distribution, having both a RO teaser and CW trailer is quite likely.

    I'm an Iron Fist fan, so this saddens me.

    Kind of makes the build up in Daredevil season 1 go nowhere as well.

    That said I hope like the movies we get more series each year. Would like Elektra, Punisher, and Moonknight to get their own series eventually

    How close are they to finishing filming for Luke Cage? I'd be ok if it ended with him meeting Danny and Season 2 of Luke Cage is essentially Heroes for Hire before they jump into Defenders.

    It'd probably need to be season 2 for that.

    Though I thought the Iron Fist issues were more the Movie side of marvel was going to say he was off limits as they were adapting something from his stuff.

    The last rumors were Marvel was just having trouble cracking the adaptation to series and/or casting- it's when those "Iron Fist has been replaced by Moon Knight" rumors started circulating a few weeks ago.

    I'm am 110% fine with Wilde in anything. But then, I'm Tron-biased.

    Wilde is awesome so I'm okay with that but I do have my heart set on Emily Blunt as Captain Marvel but Wilde would also make me happy.

    Now if we eventually get to Peter David's insane Genis-Vell Captain Marvel (or make him the baddie)

    THEN we got ourselves a movie!

    I don't know if this has been posted but has anyone else heard the rumors that a Captain America: Civil War trailer will be shown before The Force Awakens?

    Continued going through the Phase 2 scores that I've been trying to catch up on (only got IM3 when it came out; still need to get TWS & AM). (BTW, Daredevil's score (though sadly only available in MP3 format at the moment) is on sale on Amazon for only $5.)

    Haven't had a chance to listen to them all thoroughly yet, but still picking through them:

    -As I said, I already had IM3, whose score wasn't bad but nowhere near as memorable as the first two films, with the main recurring theme almost connecting previous themes but seemingly holding itself back from doing so (even when it seems like it almost certainly was setting up some throw back theme opportunities such as when Tony goes shopping ("The Mechanic") and you almost expect the Mark I theme to kick in). "Can You Dig It?" is certainly a fun track though (even if I still feel it's really out of place in the film itself- that should have been a ***damn AC/DC song instead).

    -Thor 2: Notable for including the Marvel Studios fanfare track that debuted with the film. I really like the score for this one- it definitely has that medieval/fantasy adventure vibe with the added drum work. I was never blown away by the first film's score- it has a decent main theme but it always struck me as an "almost there" theme: it's just shy of being super catchy or memorable, but it doesn't entirely fade into the background either. I would have liked to have had the themes from the first film incorporated somehow, however- Iron Man may have the excuse for changing his music every film since his armor is constantly being changed but Thor should be like Captain America and the Avengers and have some form of common recurring theme.

    -Agents of SHIELD: After an extra year of waiting we finally got a soundtrack release for this which includes tracks from the first two seasons- though they are frustratingly out of order (I know the first Thor score did this as well, but it wasn't so obvious). Still, this one impresses a lot- certainly the most memorable non-Silvestri score of the MCU.

    -Guardians of the Galaxy: Another pleasantly strong score that seems to get overshadowed by the success of Awesome Mix Vol 1 (which is included with the score in the Deluxe 2 disc version). "Black Tears" is just as powerful on its own as it is in the film, bitch. The track order does have a track or two out of order ("The Final Battle Begins" is track #2, [face_laugh]) but most of it is correct.

    AOU & DD are next up on my to-listen list (though I've skimmed through a couple tracks in AOU- the Silvestri samplings are hard to resist) and I'll be buying TWS & AM in the coming weeks (no release yet for Agent Carter, though that is understandable- if they waited two seasons for AOS, they're gonna wait a couple for AC at the very least.). Ultimately want to make a a best-of CD for Phase 2 as I did for Phase 1 a couple years ago, though with so many more entries in Phase 2 I'll have to break things up into 2 CDs this go around.

    Overall, though, I'm surprised at how much influence Tyler Bates is having, musically, on this Phase as he's scored (or co-scored) half of the Phase 2 films (and the fanfare playing before almost everything else). I'm curious to see if any future work he does for the MCU will continue any of his existing themes now, like how SIlvestri continued Cap's theme into The Avengers).

    (EDIT- the IM3 theme turns up during the AOU score at least once during "Hulkbuster")

    Still, I really hope Silvestri returns for some portion of Phase 3- his score for A1 is still head over heels outstanding and one of the best non-Williams works in the past 15 years. Even if Tyler remains the mainstay musical contributor, allowing Silvestri to throw some new tracks into the mix to give everything else a boost to work off of would work very well for me.

    I've on the Wilde bandwagon when she appeared on the TV show House as "13." She very visually stunning and has the acting chops, but her as Captain Marvel really comes out of the left field for me as she hasn't been speculated or rumor to be in the hunt for the role. However, I could see Marvel casting her as she would be budget friendly. I mean, I've been hearing rumors that Infinity War Parts 1 and 2 budget is around $500 million with the actors taking like 20% - 25% of that budget.

    I'm sure Marvel with make the right choice when they cast Captain Marvel as they haven't missed on anything so far. I just want them to make an announcement.


    Yeah, there have been rumors, but I don't think a Civil War trailer with be attached with The Force Awakens as it might be too early to drop the trailer and it might not generate the desire buzz as I'm sure more the media and interwebs will be discussing Star Wars.

    IIRC, Marvel has been dropping their trailers on the ABC network with one of their programs. I recall the last two trailers, Age of Ultron and Ant-Man scheduled to debut on Agents of SHIELD (leakage aside). I expect the same for Civil War. However, I wouldn't mind being wrong and getting the Civil War trailer with The Force Awakens.


    I like the look and Dr. Strange is probably the origin story that I'm most looking forward to as I really don't know much of the character. However, I did watch the animated Dr. Strange film and enjoyed it. Strange's origin seems to follow Tony Stark's which was very good. I hope the same success is repeated here. I heard reports of the concept art displayed at D-23 for Dr. Strange and it was all positive and enthusiastic. Many believe the Soul Gem ERRRRRR Stone will be revealed in this film.
