Gives Deadpool another meta 4 wall joke.

Yes. I had the exact same thought. That's hilarious.

And did anyone catch the nod to the film in Agents of Shield last Friday? "Did you see what is happening in New York today??"

Yep, though the dialogue between Busey and Bennett was odd, as if a dog shat in the middle of the living room and ignoring it despite being another apocalyptic event.

Peter Dinklage playing a giant was really cool

I liked the RS appearance too and the gay guy from the walking dead played him and voiced him. Apparently he's good at impressions. Ross Marquand

Marvel just kills it with their movies. I wish Star Wars and DC were able to get to this level.

DC needs to hire directors that they'll have faith in, and let them do their job. They've had problems meddling since Superman I. It would also be nice to see them go in a very unorthodox direction, and hire someone like a Paul Thomas Anderson, the Coen Brothers, Stephen Speilberg, or whoever will do it for whatever it'll take to right the ship

Is it them or is it WB messing things up?

I was very happy to see the depth of Thano's character. I don't think we have the full idea of the real motive behind it.

But in the comics the Celestial killed his planet off. (not the original story line with his dad and brother) but basically, (Ego type character) came to Thanos planet and killed his entire race off, which they were all "Titans".

So I think we will learn more in part II

I'm not sure that's true. In the comics, I think Thanos himself destroyed Titan for a myriad of reasons, most notably because his mother loathed him since his birth....

It's WB meddling with everything.

BvS was a rushed attempt at launching Justice League to compete with the Avengers. As a result, BvS turned out to be shit when it had only one movie in the DCEU at the time of its release when it needed at least a MoS sequel to precede it.

Justice League turned out to be a decent movie, as well as Wonder Woman turning out great, but them feeling rushed to launched Justice League pretty mugged ****ed up any chance they have at catching Marvel, unless they retcon the entire universe in Flashpoint.

Do we have any confirmation about Adam warlock in Avengers 4? We know he'll be in Guardians 3 but wonder if we get him in 4?

Also, surely they're going to bring back Gamora?

I know that it was the producer with Batman in 1989. Not that anything was really wrong with that one. But I recall Burton claiming that there was a lot of studio interference with it. And why he overcompensated with Batman Returns by making it so dark which kept it from being a family film.

The same thing with the Superman films in the eighties. They fired Donner after he was nearly completely finished with doing two films at the same time. Then they bring in that clown Lester who tried turning things too slapsticky. It split the cast up as far as their loyalties creating issues with not only completing II, but the direction of III.

III was supposed to be a different film with Brainiac and Supergirl. The studio botched that one too. Then the next three have a long list of issued. Not to mention the one that Kevin Smith wrote, but was never made. The recent history isn't much better. The production and studio staffs keep mucking things up with micromanaging and so on

I was told that he fell in love with Death. And to win her over he tried to create death for her to notice him?
