TV/MoviesRe: Marvel Cinematic Universe by moneyallowed(m): 10:57am On Jan 02, 2017
Happy new year! 2017 has a lot in store for us, it's a great time to be a Marvel fan. Just in the MCU this year, we've got
Series :
Agents of SHIELD Season 4
Inhumans
Iron Fist
The Defenders
The Punisher

Movies:
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
Spider-Man: Homecoming
Thor: Ragnarok

Still Marvel but outside the MCU, we've got
Series:
Legion

Movies:
Logan

My predictions:

Agents of SHIELD will be canceled (don't cry, we know all it was only a matter of time)

Inhumans will be the surprise best Marvel series of the year

Iron Fist will be better than Luke Cage(not really a hard prediction since Luke Cage was so bad)

The Defenders will assemble, defend and then disassemble when they finish defending whatever it is they assembled to defend

The Punisher will have a lot of blood, Frank Castle will kill a lot of people.

Legion will suck and it will be canceled after only one season

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 will make up to 1 billion dollars and will be better than part 1(this is a very bold prediction but I'm quite confident in the director)

Spider-Man Homecoming will make up to $800 million at the box office. Whether or not it'll be any good I'm not sure

Thor Ragnarok will be the best Thor Movie. It will make $600 million

Logan will be the best comic book movie of 2017. It will make around $500-600 million

That's it for my predictions, let's hear from you guys

Hahaha, did you say that Doctor Strange will outgross Man of Steel? Wake up and smell da coffee, man! Doctor Strange has lost over 3300 cinemas in the US alone and currently stands at $657 million, $12 million shy of MOS. I don't see Doctor Strange earning beyond $662 million eventually cheesy
Sorry to disappoint you but Doctor Strange is yet to open in Japan. That alone guarantees it'll outgross MoS. So my point still stands

Maybe we should change the title of this thread to rivals watch lol........ I remember this time last year, when people were predicting the final box office returns of the 2016 cbms, the general consensus here on else where on Nairaland was

BvS - the conservative estimate then was 1.5 billion. Some were even saying 2 billion but most dceu fans predicted it would outgross Avengers. No one and I mean no one predicted less than a billion dollars,and y'all still trying to spin this as a positive. OK oo. Suicide Squad was the only DCEU movie that exceeded expectations, and that's in spite and not because of how bland it was. Those calling Doctor Strange formulaic should watch Suicide Squad for a change

Deadpool and Doctor Strange were all predicted to make 500 million or less, they're both resounding successes, Doctor Strange will outgross Man of Steel, think about that for a second: a movie about a superhero I'm sure most of you never knew about, even Hardcore MCU fans don't know much about him, will make more money than a movie about the most popular superhero in the world.

The next person I see bashing my beloved Doctor Strange, I'll gonna chase with koboko! Let DC make a movie
TV/MoviesRe: Westworld Fan Page by moneyallowed(op): 10:25pm On Dec 05, 2016
I think the final episode was the best. I don't want to conclude to early because we just finished season 1 but if they keep this up for the remaining 4 seasons, then Westworld may turn out to be one of my favorite series of all time. It's a pity we'll have to wait so long for season 2

Wait! Am I getting it wrong or did Dolores jst called Bernard (Arnold) ?
Your aren't mistaken. I'm still confused about a lot of things but I'll wait for the last episode of season 1. After that I'll write down all the things I'm still confused about so you guys can help me out.

Such a shame about Elsie, that's one character I still miss

MARVELTARDS, PLEASE GO TO YOUR THREAD!!! HERE IS FOR GREAT MINDS!!!
WE AINT MATURED, YET YOU GUYS DONT SEE US POKE NOSING AROUND...
NOW WE KNOW, DONT WE? THAT IT TAKES ONLY THE MATURED MINDS TO COMPREHEND AND APPRECIATE BvS UE.
Even DCEU hater like Scott Mendelson couldn't argue against the MASTER PIECE!!!!
www.forbes.com/sites/scottmendelson/2016/06/28/batman-v-superman-dawn-of-justice-ultimate-edition-review-a-superior-cut-of-a-doomed-film/#158f436d7b89

That's Scott talking about the so called masterpiece, still a mixed review. The fact that someone didn't enjoy the movie you liked doesn't make that person immature. It's OK to like bad movies and not enjoy good movies, besides the criteria for rating movies is subjective

Please can you all concentrate on DC and stop bashing Marvel? There's nothing to gain by trying to bring the other down. That's what kids do and I assume we're all mature. Over in the Marvel thread you see very little of this sort of behavior but here it's more prevalent.

Telling people to "go to your Marvel thread" is just wrong. This thread would be nothing without the support or controversy that Marvel fans bring, same with the MCU thread: without the DC fans we'd probably still be on page 0. Besides there are people that genuinely enjoy both Marvel and DC, it's not an fixed thing. When people who aren't comic book fans come here they might think this is what all nerds are like.

Everyone will have their preferences and reasons why they don't like either Marvel or DC, that's normal but there's no need to use foul language to get your point across. I'm sorry I had to type this long post about such a silly topic but no one else has said anything about it and it's really sad. I follow both threads but I may have to stop and stick to one if 90% of the notifications I receive about this thread is just insults and pointless arguments

U know the last F4 was chicken poop. . . Marvel should forget it
Marvel knows how to rescue their own characters from the hands of silly studios... The last Punisher movie was shit too , the last Daredevil, last Ghost Rider...all shit now look what Marvel has done with them on a TV budget. Imagine what they'll do with F4.

If you're still in doubt wait and see how great the Spider-Man movie next year will be and compare it to the last one

The other major one right now is that william(the guy looking for the maze with Dolores) is actually the man in black(Ed Harris' character). Which is why I asked the question whether any of you thought the plotline was in reverse chronology or if they were just telling two different timelines simultaneously. I began suspecting reverse chronology after that Lawrence is El Lazo(I hope I spelt that right) reveal. I literally felt violated during that scene.
I'm confused, some theories are so.....why would anyone think William is the man in black?

shockwave91:
This show mehn, HOLY SH*T!!!! shocked shocked shocked

Serious questions, is the plotline in reverse chronology? Or are there just two interwoven storylines playing themselves out?

Bernard as a host just means that there is a whole lot of mind bending f*ckery yet to come.

Also watched some theories on YouTube and I just got a lot more confused. Who's with me?
I know Bernard being a host was one theory and that's being proven to be true. What are the other theories?
TV/MoviesRe: Marvel Cinematic Universe by moneyallowed(m): 7:21am On Nov 17, 2016
The worst part about this Inhumans TV show is that we'll never get to see Vin Diesel playing Black Bolt.

The best part about it is by this time next year, we'll already have watched it. We're getting spoiled as fans, next year we have Rocket and Baby Groot to look forward to, A freaking Spider-Man movie in the MCU - something we've all been praying for, Thor Ragnarok with Thor and Hulk on an adventure. We have The Defenders, Punisher and Iron Fist all coming out, Legion and what might be the last appearance of Agents of SHIELD, and don't forget Wolverine will be donning his claws for one last time(though not MCU).

We're blessed. Compare this to what the DC fans have and you'll see we should count our blessings. Maybe if the Inhumans came out as a movie it would be too difficult to fit in the storylines. Maybe this will turn out to be a blessing in disguise when Marvel get F4 rights back and they take the place of Inhumans in the movies. All I know is I just want the series to be good, and I'm grateful we even have this much to look forward to
TV/MoviesRe: Westworld Fan Page by moneyallowed(op): 8:41pm On Nov 15, 2016
Ford! Hosts>>>Humans

Anyone know how many episodes are left in this season?

Good news, Westworld has been renewed for a second season. Potentially bad news, it might not air till 2018, still a rumor though, I hope it isn't true, I can't imagine waiting 2 years for the next season

the pirated copy I watched is top quality.
the movie was better than I expected, introducing magic into the MCU wasn't suppose to be this easy.
You got a link?

Also what's your take on this Inhumans news?

marvel.com/news/tv/26993/marvels_the_inhumans_coming_to_imax_abc_in_2017?linkId=31155907

This is bad news, the Inhumans will now be a TV show, not a movie. I don't know how they'll be able to do special effects for Medusa's hair on a TV budget, unless they plan to make it big like GoT. God I hope this series doesn't suck, please don't suck

At least we'll get to see it next year instead of waiting forever

Sometimes I wonder how the writers of these movies thinks....

simdam500:
Westworld has driven its way to episode 6 and a westworld page is still on page 1. I won't be surprise if seun is not seeing it infact. It will hit Nigerians when its get to S06. Delores everyone thought wouldbe the first to get smart now wasn't. Qucik Q house? How do u listen to an AI when she says you should update her, meanwhile you have the OS and the computer with you, you could e ven shut her down. (Just asking to see who is really following)
That confused me until I thought about it

1) She's not behaving like the other AI, she's waking up when she's not supposed to, she doesn't forget, there's only a problem

2)She blackmailed them, she was built to read people like she said and said all the right things to make them help her - The Asian guy obviously has empathy and she didn't need to work on him much, plus his curiosity about finding out what's wrong with her. For the other guy, threatening to expose him and promising him rewards

3)Someone else had obviously messed with her OS before them, someone with more privileges than them, so they know something else is going on,and like she said, if you're being screwed either way, why don't you go with the version where you gain something

Saying all this though if I were them, I'd have reduced her intelligence to 1 and increased her loyalty to 20, but then maybe the guy messing with her would have still come back and changed it. So I guess their decision makes sense

it still very good,i like that cyclops isn't the victim anymore and wasn't always such a good guy.
and this arnold fella clearly messed or still messing with the host,maybe he is at the center of the maze.
Ed harris isn't the bad guy and hannibal,is clearly the mad man in this story.
dolores is hard to understand sha.
I like that my expectations keep getting subverted, now I'm not so sure who the bad guy is anymore. I still don't trust Anthony Hopkins, and Ed Harris is too bad to be good. One of the guys we least expect will be a robot but I don't know who?
I totally forgot about Dolores, can't wait to see her journey next episode
TV/MoviesRe: Westworld Fan Page by moneyallowed(op): 1:07am On Nov 09, 2016
Anyone not watching Westworld is missing out! On episode 6 and it keep getting more interesting.

Of course its less interesting when there is no one to discuss with. Where are all the Sci-fi/Thriller/Western fans?

If we were judging on visual effects alone, this film would rank very high, but I don't think it would crack my top 5. To be honest I don't even know my top 5, I do know that CA:WS, Avengers & GotG are certainly there, but I'll certainly watch it again. Since this is an origin story, we are bound by its usual trappings - some things are rushed along to get the story moving, some characters are ignored....

As for Strange, he is a n00b, even he's a very intelligent & a quick study, still a fast progressing n00b with lots of potential. He's certainly going to be more powerful in his next appearance.
So like Scarlet Witch level of n00b or Vision level? Let me put this another way, can he realistically take out all the Avengers at the same time based on this movie in a straight fight? Cos that's what he's capable of in the comics

So finally back from watching DS (took a very long detour). Did I enjoy it? Yes. They really bent the rules of the MCU. DS is your typical MCU film, you'll be entertained, you'll certainly laugh even after [and/or during] an intense moment. Sometimes it did feel like I was watching Inception: MCU & the final boss (not the villain, technically his boss) battle was rather interesting. At least it wasn't blue light effect fighting (see Suicide Squad & Fant4stic). I did wish the film was longer though - yes, I'm weird like that, it certainly wasn't more than 2 hours (I don't think it was up to 2 sef even with the credits. Yes, there's a mid-credit & post credit scene). They did try to put as much as they could, Dr. Stephen Strange is practically Tony Stark, he's got the brains, money (not as much) & the arrogance, your typical gifted specialist surgeon. The villain was...well a MCU villain - he had some valid points, but he's no Loki & his endgame was kinda silly*...but with the post credit scene, we do have potential for a greater villain - a moral one (at least to himself). *Oh and he needed more screen time.

The theme of this film is certainly about broken individuals, who are looking for solutions and inevitably get drawn into something else. The magic in this film (& I'm guessing the MCU in general) is rather interesting. DS brings a whole new paradigm into the MCU & it will be interesting to see how it's used in the rest of the MCU. Oh & Marvel have updated their intro, it now incorporates the MCU live action characters.

It was nice seeing the GotG v2 teaser trailer on the big screen. Oh and watch out for the cameo in the mid-credit scene.
Great to hear, thanks for the feedback. Now I'm even more excited to watch this

Two questions though, how would you tank this movie in terms of the MCU, and will it crack your top 5 favorite MCU movies? Oh and how would you rank Doctor Strange in terms of power level in the MCU? He's always been one of the strongest in the comics so I'm curious to see if they kept that or they nerfed him
