I think the only thing non MCU was the free roaming.

Sure, it isn't even original. I mean, the movie is like the Disney version of the comic.
Character development? Logan himself is one-note for the entire film (the same note he's ever been), except for the utterly predictable paternal instinct progression (which takes its damn time to appear at that). Nobody else progresses much during the entire film.
That's not a merit of the movie itself, though.
At 40 years old, I personally couldn't care less about the degree of family friendliness of a movie. Being entertaining, or being thoughtful: those are the things I value. Logan is average at the first and below average at the second. If anything, the violence in Logan gets repetitive fast and makes the film look juvenile.
Sure, Logan is still lightyears ahead of the unmitigated shit that DC has been spewing for half a decade, but that's not exactly a high bar. But if you think it's better than the MCU movies (not talking about you, but the poster I originally replied to), you're deluding yourself and it's very likely you will change your mind in a decade or two when you stop equating grimness with quality.

Nope, sounds like Nolan North.
Thor has a completely different VA I don't recognize.
I'm thinking the whole thing with Kang is that they technically can't use him for the movies, but he's not as strongly tied to the Fox owned properties to not use him.

The FF don't even exist in the formerly-known-as-the 616 post-Secret Wars do they?
Kang is an Avengers villain, from multiple event annuals right down to being a member of the young avengers.
As for his lineage... you know how, like, 1 in 200 people are a direct descendant of genghis khan? Given how far in the future he comes from, its pretty likely theres a bunch of 'names' you could directly trace back as his direct ancestors.
Yes, that does make him particularly stupid for killing so many people in the 20th century, but eh, comics.

The FF family lives outside of time and space restoring the Marvel Multiverse for now

Right, but there's no Fantastic Four super team dealing with stuff on a daily basis.
Its like not having the Living Tribunal as a playable character

Well like most movies based on Millar books, with the exception of Wanted, it was an improvement over the original. Nothing against Millar.
They've rebalanced them to encourage co-op play (and then omitted online play. Thanks!). Playing through these games solo is a pretty tedious grind now as you've discovered.
You're supposed to miss the 30 things as they are only accessible once you unlock other characters and go back through on Freeplay. You've never been able to 100% everything in Story Mode in these games.
Yeah, no. They're not idiots for calling it this.
But please, do tell what they should name it.
There is no way this is a real opinion.
The Disney version? You expect people to take that seriously?

Compared to the Mark Millar grimdark edginess of Old Man Logan it is. But that's not a bad thing, that comic is a great concept ruined by bullshit.
Doesn't sound like Trevor Devall.
Lego Avengers 2, or Lego MCU and some friends

There will be a Lego Avengers 2 at some point that is actually more of the MCU movies. Probably after either Avengers Infinity War or 4.
Looks more like a giant Kang-Bot to me. The head has an opening for the face, which looks a bit blue.

I think it's a celestial.
"Lego MCU and Some Friends"
So basically, my point stands: the name is fine and there is no better name for this.

Kinda liked the original better instead of this being off the movie universe.
I just noticed, could the lack of Trevor Devall & Travis Willingham as Rocket & Thor respectively be due to the ongoing strike? Lego Marvel 2 was listed as one of the struck games. Weird that Travis did Thor in Lego Marvel 1 & MvCI (same for Trevor as Rocket in the latter game) and not Lego Marvel 2.
What did he mean by this?

Baby Groot is even uglier as a Lego

You're both getting mad at Marvel and Fox for doing rational things to maximize their own profits lol

The degree of seriousness that people assign to that particular post hasn't been keeping me up at night, but if you want to make a comment rather than a vague appeal to ridicule, please don't let me stop you.

Wow, Spider-man 2099 front and center on the box. Never thought I'd see this.
