I never noticed how goddamned thick Samberg's neck apparently is.

People must have been offering that mofo some fucking kettlebells and medicine balls.
And he THREW THEM TO THE GROUND
It was probably those super-sweet training montages in Hot Rod.
God that movie was a tire fire.
I thought it was hilarious, but I'm easy to please.

You slut.
A slut who's easy to please basically just becomes self-reinforcing behavior.
I really liked it.
Me too, it got me through working all Christmas eve and into Christmas morning one year.
No mention of how Infinity War has been seemingly downsized to only one movie?
I trust the Russos to give us something good. They were brought on after Marvel outlined the plan to split Infinity War into two movies and they have gone on record as saying that the next two Avengers movies would be very different from each other so that's why they were changing the names.
It's not so much downsized as much as they are making it two fully separate films instead of making it a two-parter.
I have a feeling now that the Russo brothers are getting their scripts and storyboards together, they're seeing a different picture than what was initially envisioned, which necessitates title changes. They've already said the movies will be very different from the comic storyline, so who can say where it's going to go for the 2019 film?
On the downside, it's also been said that it's unlikely for any of the Netflix characters to appear in the movies, and I'm wondering if that statement has also come off of where the scripting is headed.

That statement probably comes from the rift between the TV and movie divisions since Ike Perlmutter is still in control of TV and is cantankerous over losing control of movies.

So THAT is the asshole trying to kill the X-Men and who's making the comics worship the movies for no fucking reason.
Well, he can fuck off.
EDIT: And he's got some kind of buddy-buddy deal with Bendis and Loeb to screw over other properties? He can double fuck off. Triple, if he feels like it.
Apparently he's (Perlmutter) got a big share of Disney in his claws too, but thankfully Disney seems to realize Feige is printing them money.
Oh, the guy all the Marvel writers hate. Somehow I forgot that was him.
if DC cancelled a movie, or even "repurposed" it to be about something else due to Snyder's vision or script, y'all know the thread would be "THE DC CINEMATIC UNIVERSE IS OVER" all the way down
I mean yeah, if they had to cancel a movie when they've only got one (nearly two) out, it would look pretty bad because there's no safety net of previously well-received flicks in the franchise/universe. Plus they've already had to re-shoot for a movie to make it less grim, and people don't seem to be that up in arms about it.
say what you will, at least he has a vision. and bless him, he keeps trying to communicate it with moving pictures
They've already done that and no one said it. Do you not remember? Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice was original Batman vs Superman part 1: Dawn of Justice. No one cried doom then even though it was affecting only the second movie in the DCEU. Justice League was also going to be a two-parter, but they changed that too. No one shat on that either. If anything, Marvel's following DC's lead on this one, and good. Two-parters suck. Just make a fucking movie, and then later make a sequel.
WB has pretty much stated that's not the vision they want moving forward. Keep in mind, the only reason Snyder was on the project to begin with is because he was the director they approached who was willing to start filming without a complete script. He was not their first choice. He got the job by having lower standards than the directors they approached first. We could've had Darren Aronofsky.
Also, Marvel has a vision. He's been in two movies so far.
Alternatively:
Snyder: "I have a vision."
Marvel: "Oh hey, so do we! He's played by Paul Bettany. He's great."
On Conan O'Brien, Jon Bernthal, who is currently playing The Punisher on Marvel's Daredevil Netflix series (and soon his own series) related a story about going to a comic shop in Ventura to do some research on his character. The guy working the counter recognized him when he came up with his pick, and basically explained what the essential Punisher stories to read are, and gave him the trades for free. He then went to a comic shop in Brooklyn, and instead of being super helpful, they were all like "Don't fuck this up, motherfucker." Which is Brooklynese for "Good luck."
The Brie Larson pic reminded me of that story.

I feel bad for when she gets to Civil War II-era Captain Marvel.
You know, for all the hate he gets (and I add to it too) you can't take away that he's actually a gifted cinematographer. The guy sure does know how to frame a shot, and he does come across as someone passionate about what he does, with a clear and distinct style.
He just really, really needs better script writers, and maybe a partner to focus on the finer details.
Kind of like George Lucas. Left to his own devices, without someone to say, "Hey, uh, George? Maybe you shouldn't do this?" the result is less than desirable.
