even some Fant4stic. Put some ketchup on your eggs, and catch-up
(*ducks*) on your Marvel news!
Mostly MCU Reviews
My articles from
the week
I did not post a lot
of articles this week; I plan to get into my summer posting schedule (side) next
week. My first article (and only review)
was of Daredevil episode 6, “Condemned.” What did you think of the episode?
In case you missed Agents
of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 2—or need a refresher—here is my recap of the season. What was your favorite part of the season?
And now that you’ve
caught up on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 2, it’s time for us to startlooking ahead to season 3! What are you most looking forward to in AoS
season 3?

articles and blog posts about the MCU
Avengers: Age of
Ultron is now the highest-grossing movie of 2015 at the domestic box office. However, it’s only around half the domestic
gross of the first Avengers ($372 million vs. $623 million). Think it will catch up? How many times have you seen it so far?
Casting has alreadybegun for Guardians of the Galaxy 2. Apparently there will be two people joining
the team this time around: one new and
one old. Who is your pick for the newest
Guardian (and played by whom)? Which
established character do you want to see join the Guardians?
Chris Pratt revealed
some contract details recently: He is signed on for 3-5 more movies, 2 of
which will presumably be GotG sequels. What other movies do you want to see him
in? I would guess at least one Avengers:
Infinity War movie, along with a couple of space-based spinoff movies (Nova,
perhaps?).
Take a look at some
more Captain America: Civil War production pictures. What do you find most interesting?
According to Jeremy
Renner’s twitter, this may be the logo for Captain
America: Civil War.

News from Around

Anything not
related to the MCU that I find interesting
D.C. is introducing anall-female retro team consisting of Supergirl, Bat Woman, and Wonder Woman
fighting on the frontlines of World War II. Is this the D.C. response to Marvel’s A-Force
all-female team-up? Are you interested
in seeing these three characters get a reimagining?
DC vs. Marvel
mix-n-match chess set. You want?
Rumor: The Batman v. Superman Wonder Woman is
going to be hundreds of years old! And all the teenage boys in the audience just
went “EWWWWWWWWWWWW”! Kidding aside,
what are your thoughts on this rumor?
The Supergirl
pilot leaked online this week,
and it’s already generating buzz. Do you
think this will hurt the series when it actually premieres in the fall, or do
you think it will actually help? Do you
think it might even have been intentional?
Michael B. Jordan
addressed the critics who derided his casting as Johnny Storm, aka the Human
Torch, this week. What did you think of the casting at the
time? Has that changed? I admit I was one of those who thought they
needed to be true to the comics instead of “pandering to the PC crowd.” However, as of now I’m willing to give him—and
the movie—a chance instead of prejudging it as a terrible rights-holder that
will prevent Marvel from being able to use the F4 for another 5-10 years. I think I might even be willing to see it in
theaters (gasp)!
