Holy fuck was that a great movie

Might be Marvel's best yet

srs.

and that post-credits cameo

my god

Certain · 08-02-2014, 08:52 PM

I liked it quite a bit, but I'd say Avengers and (though not by Marvel Studios) X2 remain the standard-bearers. It probably was the funniest Marvel movie.

I think the comedy is what really set it apart for me - it's the first movie to ever really get "comic book snarky humor" right. I wish this guy was also doing Deadpool.

Are they going to try to pull together an Infinity Gauntlet movie?

The cameo at the end was funny. The Infinity Gauntlet is fucking ridiculously confusing. Comic book nerds are going to be so pissed when they simplify it.

they did a good job piecing together a summer blockbuster out of extremely minor characters in the marvel universe and most of which were in the group at different times

i think they'll manage

my biggest sore point is we can never have galactus or silver surfer in this universe because Fox

so dumb

Certain · 08-02-2014, 10:13 PM

Not having Silver Surfer or Fantastic Four rights complicates keeping things within the comics' story line for The Infinity Gauntlet. They really ought to make a Warlock movie before that undertaking.

Thanos is by far my favorite comic book villain of all time. His story and purpose are interesting on another level.

Ghost1 · 08-02-2014, 10:27 PM

Yea hes the scene after the credits

Certain · 08-02-2014, 10:28 PM

Yeah, but Warlock is the central hero in the Infinity Gauntlet story line, with Silver Surfer being pivotal as well (and Galactus, whom I presume Fox also owns rights to, was incredibly important along with him).

Thanos was introduced at the end of Avengers.

I'd expect Warlock to be in GotG 2 then. No way he gets a standalone movie. Too obscure for the general public. GotG worked because of the ensemble.

Diode · 08-02-2014, 10:31 PM

IG prob won't start until late 2017 at the least. We still have Dr. Strange to deal with..

Certain · 08-02-2014, 10:34 PM

Apparently Warlock has been integral in Guardians of the Galaxy comics over the past decade.
