Journey Into Mystery

And then there was four or two(Maybe, I don’t know how this team works yet): Iron Man 2

 

Thor was the movie I was unsure about. Was I pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be better than expected, Verily.

With the Son of Coul finding the hammer, Let’s talk about Agent Coulson. I feel like he was suppose to be generic S.H.I.E.L.D. agent whose purpose was to connect the movies without having to shell out more money than they had to.

But then he became a fan favorite and now has a mediocre tv show.

Don’t get me wrong, I like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D….after Captain America: Winter Soldier, but you have to admit it didn’t have the greatest of starts.

Such Nice Suits

So Nick Fury plans for an unknown unknown. Next Up: The Incredible Hulk.

So Tony Stark meets with Gen. Ross basically saying we’ll find and keep the hulk in check on this “team”. Now with Mark Ruffalo’s performance in Avengers, everybody wants a solo movie.  I say keep him to cameos and ensemble casts. I’m not saying Ruffalo can’t carry a movie, He’s a fine actor, but the hulk is better kept to being the monster in the dark.The explosive rage Banner keeps just underneath the surface, we don’t need a whole movie about how he doesn’t want to get mad. If you really need a hulk fix, They should make a She-Hulk movie. It would cover so many bases. You would have a strong female superhero movie and you would get your Mark Ruffalo cameo. And it could be a different kind of superhero movie w/ Jennifer also being a lawyer. Ooooh, I wonder if Jennifer Walters is going to cameo in the DareDevil netflix show.

Just an Action Movie

I recently saw the new 2014 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie. I’m not going to do a review about it or anything like that. My love of turtles doesn’t allow me to fairly critique the “film”.

What I will comment on is some reaction I’m hearing from friends and acquaintances. It’s a stupid action movie or it’s a kids’ movie. Now I’m fine with stupid movies. Dumb action movies(good or bad) have their place, so if that’s how you want to justify your enjoyment of the TMNT movie, good on ya.

What I have a problem with is calling it just a “kid film”. Being a movie for children allows Hollywood to put schlock on the screen? Hasn’t ten years of award winning Pixar movies shown us anything? Did you not feel for Jessie in toy story 2? Kids’ movie is not an excuse for a movie being trash. Stop. With the sequel already announced, I don’t want to hear that excuse for TMNT 2.

 

That’s not what I came here to say. It is and It isn’t. I wanted to talk about marvel after credit scenes, but then I was distracted by some plebian. I am going to be doing…something…writing -wise about the After Credit Scenes all week. Starting off with the one that started us off, Iron Man.

So question, When Nick Fury comes to talk to Tony about the Avengers Initiative, who is he talking about? Thor hasn’t arrived on earth yet and Cap hadn’t been discovered. Was he expecting Iron Man(who he doesn’t even think is right for the team) to team two super spies and maybe a hulk? Let me know if you know what master spy Nick Fury was planning.
