    And the previous Ant-Man movie made $150 million more dollars so?

    Ant Man and The Wasp benefitted from coming out after infinity war and the peak marvel hype. Same with Captain Marvel.

    Ironic how both their sequels bombed during the MCU dog days

    They don't have any actual points they just don't like the decision.

    Yeah I get it but it's happening. I'm willing to give RDJ a chance and all I'm saying is that I understand why the MCU made this choice. Not saying that I like it. Just that I understand it based on their current position

    I know you said superhero fatigue and bad word of mouth but that just reinforces my point about these movies not being guaranteed profit.

    self inflicted wound tbh..

    and now we have to deal with these uninspired ass casting choices as a result...

    Same. If you can't understand why they did this then I don't think you're paying attention. I get it if you don't like it or agree with it. But at least gotta see where they're coming from doing this.

    Miles is becoming more popular than Peter for these new gen kids Wouldn't surprise me for Toms final Spider-Man movie if he passes the torch to Miles.

    There's still build up there. It's what they were doing with Kang, that's the MCU's style. Again, it's the point of a cinematic universe. What are we even arguing about right now? Do you seriously think randomly popping Doom in the story would be better than having them being a variant of a character we know that brings the whole multiverse saga together? This movie is 2 years from now

    Kang had even MORE buildup than Thanos did. A central role in the Loki finale, a primary role in season 2, and the main villain of Ant-Man. That is real build up because there is no MacGuffin that the character is centered around. The MacGuffin is what the movies were primarily focused on building.

    Thanos' character and motivations were all established in ONE FILM. It can be the same for Doom. It can be done in a single film with a brand new actor. I for one am curious to see what they do but this is clearly a nostalgia baity casting. Could it add to the story? Sure, but the quality writing has to be there for it to matter.

    Thanos' appearances prior to Infinity War, broken down to their simplest aspects, are:
    Turning his head to the camera at the end of Avengers
    Being Ronan's boss in Guardians (with like a minute of screentime)
    Grabbing a glove at the end of Ultron

    What if any of those contributed to the character work done in Infinity War? Doom can be completely established in Doomsday. One film. Whatever he does will carry over to Secret Wars and Doomsday will be the film where we learn about the character and their motivations. It can work that way.

    I for one hope this is something beyond a nostalgia casting and it's something with some meat to it. But as of now all it seems like is nostalgia bait.

    Not even saying I dislike nostalgia bait, s*** I had a great time with Deadpool last night. But there was a little something more to that movie than just nostalgia bait.

    Exactly, Keaton came back and movie still tanked. Banking on the name of established IP does not work if the film is not good.

    Was just talking to my friends about a team red movie the other day. Honestly don't know if we'll ever get it but guarantee we'll see Daredevil & Spiderman on screen together.

    Well I feel like that's bc it felt cheap. Especially the use of dead actors likenesses. Poor taste nostalgia.
