TheBrickPal Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Agent Carter's premiere was fantastic! And Ant Man looks like a great film, from what the teaser showed. Should make for some cool sets... Quote
The Legonater Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 My guess for that is that Marvel is wisely trying to undersell Ant-Man a bit. Since it is their most plagued production, with the Edgar Wright fall-out and such--and that without Wright they might never have slated Ant-Man for his own film at all--they may be trying to be a little more modest about it, rather than hyping it up to the extreme. Frankly, I think the understated nature of the trailer suits the character better anyway. I don't think they can afford to undersell it, though. People are citing Guardians as a reason that Ant-Man will be better than it could be, which is good. Guardians showed Marvel can do what they want and make a profit, but now they have to prove that wasn't a fluke. If Ant-Man performs poorly, it'll affect things. Quote

Guardians was an action movie first and a comedy second, I think Ant-Man will try follow that philosophy. Quote

I think that's actually exactly why they need to undersell it a little. Just having Marvel's name on it will guarantee people will see it, yet if it performs better than expected (as did GOTG), it will give it longer legs at the box office. If fanboys like it more than they thought they would, it will go a long way in ensuring good word of mouth to non-Marvelites. Edited January 7, 2015 by rodiziorobs Quote
BigPoppaBrick Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Just watched the trailer for Ant-Man and wasn't impressed. I can see this one flopping, don't think the character is strong enough for his own film and the lack of characters from other MCU will limit the interest. Always thought he was a lame character in the comics and only got my attention during the Ultron introduction. Quote
The Legonater Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Generally the same as the original trailer, but with more emphasis. I'm not sure that's necessarily a bad thing, I'm glad they aren't revealing too much, it saves a lot for the movie itself. Judging by Banner's focus in this trailer, I'm wondering if he helped work on Ultron, and that the Hulk/Hulkbuster fight will come from a disagreement between Banner and Stark over that. Quote

Ultron is a creation of the Chituari, reactivated by Stark. Quote
The Legonater Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 I know some promo materiel has hinted at reactivation (which Banner can still be involved with) but where did the Chituari idea come from? Quote
Ultron Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Ultron is a creation of the Chituari, reactivated by Stark. No he's not, it only said he was found among the wreckage of the chitauri invasion. That could mean a lot of things. Why would the chitauri have a "dormant peacekeeping program" with them...? It doesn't add up. Quote
Risgrynsgrot Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 I'm 100 % certain Hulk is being influenced either by Scarlet Witch (when she's working for Ultron) or Ultron himself somehow, hence Hulks red eyes. Quote
Vindicare Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Theories on who the bald female in the cave is? Quote
Steph 104th Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 I've read speculation that it could be an Inhumans tease Just read another theory that's speculates that's it's a Dora Milage, Black Panthers bodyguards Quote

Cammo Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) So is Black Panther taking Spidermans role in the Civil War? Edited January 14, 2015 by Cammo Quote
rodiziorobs Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 That trailer was kind of meh to me. I don't need to see a lot of new footage or spoilery stuff in my trailers, but tonally it was like a twin to the first teaser. Or rather, it was or more like a Peter Jackson extended version of the first teaser: not better, just longer. The novelty of the "got no strings" soundtrack has grown a bit stale for me as well. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for the movie, but if the forthcoming trailers are all like this, my enthusiasm might start to wane. Quote
Zilcho Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 According to a mildly reliable source, Spidey will be in Avengers Infinity War!! Read here.

FinalFeature Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Just spent 16 hours remaking the new Avengers Age of Ultron trailer in LEGO. Quote
Ultron Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 That was really good! In other news: Black Widow confirmed to be in Civil War! Quote
Faefrost Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 That was really good! In other news: Black Widow confirmed to be in Civil War! Yeah I saw Black Widow, Falcon, Winter Soldier, black Panther and Iron Man all confirmed for Cap 3 Civil War. So it's almost a full blown Avengers flick by itself. Quote
Cloveapple Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Yeah I saw Black Widow, Falcon, Winter Soldier, black Panther and Iron Man all confirmed for Cap 3 Civil War. So it's almost a full blown Avengers flick by itself. Oooh! Interesting line up. I really liked Black Widow in Cap 2. I'm looking forward to seeing where they take her in 3. Quote
Mr Man Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 David Tennant cast as Zebediah Kilgrave in A.K.A. Jessica Jones. http://insidetv.ew.c...-jessica-jones/ So did the Purple Man regenerate from Malekith? Quote
Ultron Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Purple Man kind of scares me. I really don't like rapists. I hope they go all out with the purple skin though. Quote
Mr Man Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Purple Man kind of scares me. I really don't like rapists. I hope they go all out with the purple skin though. That's what I liked best about him, the total mind control, not a Doctor Doom or Thanos level of scary, but still bloody terrifying on an individual basis . I wonder if he'll keep his Scottish accent, considering the reaction to his American one in Gracepoint, it seems likely. Quote
