As we're approaching OT 3 I want to officially say that I would like to relinquish management of the OP. The MCU has grown a lot since I took over the thread 4 years ago and I'm just in a different place in life now. I'm just too busy with various other things in my life to properly give this thread the attention it deserves with up to date and fleshed out information. With more and more film and television projects every year, it's only going to become more difficult. Honestly it's been a low priority for me for nearly a year now and I'd like others who have more time to dedicate to take over.

So I'm opening it up for anyone who wishes to take over for the next thread and make it even bigger and better. Feel free to keep or use any text or images, or get rid of it all and make it all new from the ground up. Whatever you guys feel is the best way to do it.

I'll still participate in the next incarnation of the thread of course, I like the MCU too much to not join in the discussion.

TDLink, your OP will missed.

Actually, when do we get to the next OP?

 

[The Kree]

TDLink, your OP will missed.

Actually, when do we get to the next OP?

When we near 400 pages (20,000 replies).

I can do the next one if you want.

 

[TDLink]

Yeah I'm sure we won't hit it until the summer but I figured I'd say it now so people who are interested can keep it in mind and start planning what they want to do.

 

[Quick]

I'd be happy to help out with an OT3 should my services be wanted.

I still owe TDLink a banner from when he last did a cleanup and I took too long. lol

 

[clay_ghost]

This thread is almost four years old? I feel old.

 

[duckroll]

A Marvel community thread is 4 years old and hasn't filled itself out yet? Sounds like superhero fatigue is real!!!!!!

Meanwhile, at Marvel headquarters:

 

[broncobuster]

Nah. Marvel's writing checks to make sure Doctor Strange wins for Visual Effects. They're trying to convince others at Disney to pull Jungle Book and Rogue One.

 

[Zero-ELEC]

If y'all need help with a new OT, I'd be happy to in any way. Maintaining the banner has been fun so far.

Be jealous!

what in the actual hfil

 

[The Kree]

What the MCU lacks in make-up Oscars it makes up for with competent writing and direction and acting and editing and casting.

Seems like a good trade off.

I know you're being sarcastic, but as I recall, the thread slowed down big time when the decision was made to move all big "Official Threads" to community. When it was in main off-topic it got a lot more traction since people were always seeing it. In OT Community it only gets the regulars really. But that's fine. It's still trucked along pretty nicely, I think.

I'll at least cherish that personally.

Well you win some, you lose some.

Doctor Strange and Captain America (plus Fox's Deadpool) were the winners to me.

 

[torre_avenue]

Can we double check the make-up awards now.

Because someone really needs to check who won that Oscar.

Thats fine, between all the Marvel did it too-talk and Stockholm Syndrom Posts, you all need something to be happy about ;-)

 

[BLACKLAC]

Moonlight won best picture in dramatic fashion. I'm too high on life to care about hair/makeup .

 

[neorej]

I rarely do pre-orders for BluRays, but this steelbook is something fierce.

It'd probably get a little more traffic if people stopped making production threads for every individual Marvel thing and just posted that stuff here.

That Oscar has more expression than Gal Gadot's acting

Guardians Vol. 2 trailer tease

I thought that wasn't funny, then the last 5 seconds happened and I couldn't stop laughing.

There is a good reason why people say comedy is harder than drama.

Comedy is all about timing.

I would never have suspected Bautista of it, but he's so good at comedy.

 

[The Kree]

I would never have suspected Bautista of it, but he's so good at comedy.

Pro wrestlers who crossover to film seem to be naturals at it. Some of the best backstage vignettes on Raw & Smackdown when I used to watch were between guys like Rock, Austin, Jericho, Triple H because they were hilarious. I'm genuinely surprised Austin didn't have a comedic film career after wrestling because the guy can deadpan like nobody's business.

Knew he had a gift for it after watching Riddick.

 

[kurahador]

I love Rocket expression in that.

 

[Dalek]

I'm laughing so hard...I am like Drax in this regard. I am a noisy eater.

 

[Strider_Blaze]

Yup the GotG tease was funny as hell!

Especially when the chewing sound also happens at the "World Trailer Premiere Tomorrow" screen! XD

Also true, but I stopped trying to fight that battle a long time ago haha.

I believe I started that trend with AoU (sorry) but I wish I hadn't. I'm not bothered to keep up with 3 production threads and would much rather we stick to this thread.

I rarely do pre-orders for BluRays, but this steelbook is something fierce.

I got it preordered but I'm debating whether or not I should pick it up tomorrow when I have a Switch on the way this weekend...

It will be sold out pretty quick. Like the guardians Steelbook.

 

[Fonds]

I checked out Dr. Strange yesterday.

As a hand therapist I had some major issues with how his hands are destroyed, but he can somehow pick up stacks of books.

Movie was great fun overall, but the inconsistency on that end annoyed me.
At the end of the movie you see Strange having a little victory moment where he (with great effort) stretches out his hands. In between you see him flinging people around, grabbing objects and stuff without problems.
Too glaring of an issue to me.

bruh:

 

[BobTheFork]

I've been wondering if the black lines on the costume were fixed plastic and that's what it looks like. How would you bend?

I wonder who that is in the middle. One of the Dora Milaje maybe?

 

[curb]

Picked up my Doctor Strange blu-ray on the way home from work tonight. I only saw it once in theatre and was excited to watch it again. It's definitely not the same in 2D but I still really enjoyed it.

That tease with Thor at the end has me super pumped for Ragnarok and more Mister Doctor.

Edit: that Phase 3 featurette - oh lawd

 

[Strider_Blaze]

First a new Spider-Man: Homecoming poster, now a new GotG Vol. 2 poster.

AND NEW TRAILER!
