My 6 Ideas for the Future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe
Civil War was awesome. Doctor Strange is going to be great. We’ve got two more Avengers movies on the horizon. And Ant-Man already has a sequel lined up! The immediate future is bright with Marvel movies, and I couldn’t be happier! Some people have complaints, some worry about superhero fatigue, but I am not those people. I have loved every single one of Marvel Studios’ films, and I can’t wait to see what comes next.
As well as what comes after that!
Hopefully more of these guys and gals!
It is theoretically possible that, some day, the Marvel Movie Machine will come to an end. Maybe superhero movies will fall out of favor. Maybe they’ll finally make a dud. Who knows? Who can tell? I don’t ever want it to happen. I’ll be seeing each and every film they put out. But the future is a far away and malleable thing, so how about some blind, fan-driven speculation?
Join me after the jump for my thoughts on the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
6 Superhero Civil Wars I Would Like to See
I am so very excited for Captain America: Civil War! It’s in theaters in America tomorrow, and I just can’t wait! I love me some Marvel superhero movies, and this one is supposed to be another slam dunk! I want to see Ant-Man, I want to see Spider-Man, I want the Black Panther to kick butt, I want Captain America and Iron Man to come to blows! I want to see this movie!
One more day!
On the other hand, I have zero interest in the Civil War II comic crossover coming out this summer. I just don’t care. Iron Man vs. Captain Marvel over some Inhuman? Really? I know Marvel tries to have their comics mirror their movies, at least a little bit. But I super incredibly don’t care. I enjoyed the original Civil War, and I still think the concept makes for a great storyline. But meh.
Of course, that’s no reason we can’t have some comic book speculation fun! What superheroes would I like to see have a ‘civil war’? What hero vs. hero battles would be pretty neat?
6 Live Action Adaptations That Disney Should Make Next
There seems to be a growing trend at Disney recently to make live action versions of their classic animated movies. We had Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, Maleficent, a version of Snow White, and just this month, a live action Jungle Book (though it was largely CGI). Word has it they want to make Dumbo in the same way, and a Cruella de Vil movie starring Emma Stone is in the works. This is a pretty interesting line of work.
Bill Murray’s best CGI animal work
I bring all this up because I saw The Jungle Book in theaters the other day and had a lot of fun. It was a good movie with great special effects. If this is what Disney wants to do, I say more power to them! If they can make good movies by turning classic cartoons into live action, that sounds like a plan to me. So much so that I have a few suggestions!
Join me after the jump.
6 Things I Want to See in the Black Panther Movie
Captain America: Civil War is only a few weeks away, and every single time I see a new ad or clip, I get more and more excited. The reviews are through the roof. All signs are pointing to this being another amazing blockbuster. And we’ve specifically heard that not only does Spider-Man steal the show, but Black Panther’s debut is as awesome as we could hope!
The hype is for real
Unfortunately, we’re going to have to wait until 2018 to see Black Panther’s solo movie. That’s way too long to wait to debut this character, but what do I know? Marvel isn’t paying me multi-millions of dollars to plan these things out. You’d think that a Black Panther movie would be a better follow-up to Civil War than Doctor Strange. But again, what do I know?
I know what I want to see in a Black Panther movie, that’s what! Join me after the jump for my hopes and fears about the film.
6 Mutants I Want to See in a Future Ninja Turtles Movie
The latest trailer for the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sequel got me thinking about one of my favorite things in the world: mutants! The Ninja Turtles were my cartoon of choice growing up in the 1980s, and you better believed I owned every crazy Ninja Turtles action figure I could get my hands on! The very premise of martial arts animal people was so limitless that we got everything from a moose Mountie to a basketball-playing giraffe!
Nostalgia’s gonna get ya, suckas
The latest trailer for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows focuses heavily on Bebop and Rocksteady, and the idea that the Shredder now has the ability to make more mutants. If the Ninja Turtles movies are anything like the X-Men movies (another popular mutant franchise), then all the upcoming sequels are going to try and cram as many new mutants onto the screen as they can!
Seeing as how I am an expert in ancillary Ninja Turtles, I’ve decided to offer up a few suggestions for the franchise.
