WELCOME TO THE MARVEL MULTIVERSE -*RIP STAN LEE & Boseman* - XMEN97 FINALE out now

I'm tired of seeing the black dudes get smacked around. Falcon got beat up by winter soldier, antman, and Tony blasted him for no reason.
War machine got smacked up by whiplash, antman and vision.
Black panther got beat 3 times. And is n usurper. We need a win

Cotdamn, we really really really need a new trailer LOL
 
Technically this is suppose to be Age of Ulton recap week. Something that always bugged me

When Thor was choking Tony for messing up with Ultron, my boy Captain America and over and told him to cal down and said "Thor, Leggionaire?"

wtf does that mean?

I swear some of the dialouge in that movie made no sense.
 
Legionaire as in singular version of an iron legion bot. The bot that took the scepter i.e. Ultron. Captain America wants him to focus on the bot then on Iron Man
 
I know time in the mcu doesn't run parallel to time in real life sometimes.


I think cw is in 2016 because vision said something like 'superheroes began 8 years ago'

BP takes place a week after cw events, also in 2016

GotG2 takes place in 2014. And I think GotG 1 is supposed to take place a couple months before GotG 2.

Was age of ultron in 2015 in the mcu? Then Thor Ragnarok will be in 2017. Thor tells Bruce, 'ultron was 2 years ago'

Still no idea whatsoever when Dr Strange takes place.

Anyway, to make a long thing short, I would like a mcu timeline. Is there one?

I love Ultron even more now
 
“A Torture for the Eyes”: Chinese Moviegoers Think Black Panther is Just Too Black

Marvel’s first black superhero film Black Panther made a strong debut in China, taking in more than $63 million this weekend and helping it cross the billion-dollar mark globally. And while the film filled seats in China, it didn’t exactly bring in rave reviews from Chinese audiences—in fact, online reviews hint at subtle racism and discomfort with the all-black cast.

Set in Wakanda, a fictional country in East Africa that’s hidden from the outside world, the movie portrayed a romanticized version of Africa that had never been touched by the white man. Led by a cast of black actors and actresses, the film presented how the king of the country, T’Challa, used his intelligence, ancestral knowledge, and access to advance technologies to become the superhero Black Panther.

But the movie—which comes as a timely portrayal and celebration of blackness half a century after Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination—is hardly resonating with Chinese audiences. On Douban, China’s IMDb-esque platform, the film holds a 6.8 rating out of 10 (link in Chinese)—almost half of science-fiction and action movies rated by Douban users have a better score. Outside of China, Black Panther is on track to become the highest-rated superhero movie, according to Rotten Tomatoes; 97% of reviews from critics have been positive.

Some moviegoers disliked Black Panther because they felt Marvel was trying too hard to be politically correct (link in Chinese). While many reviewers on Douban stopped short of leaving overtly racist comments about the film, many discussed their discomfort of being surrounded by so much blackness.

“Maybe the Chinese are still not used to a film full of black people,”wrote one reviewer on Douban (link in Chinese). The commenter said he had to pinch himself more than 10 times to stay awake during the movie because “Black Panther is black, all the major characters are black, a lot of scenes are black, the car-chasing scene is black—the blackness has really made me drowsy.”

Another reviewer who came into the theater late made a similar observation: “When I entered the theater, a bunch of black people was fighting in the night… I’ve never been in a theater so dark that I couldn’t find my seat.”

Someone else said the experience was worse in 3D (link in Chinese): “The film is filled with black actors and actresses. Also, because the film’s colors are a bit dark, it’s nearly a torture for the eyes to watch the film’s 3D version in the theater.”

It’s yet another reminder of China’s limited exposure to race. Last month, in the annual Lunar New Year TV gala by China’s state broadcaster CCTV, producers had a Chinese actress in blackface and cast a black actor to play a monkey. In October, a Chinese museum hosted an exhibition titled “This is Africa” that juxtaposed images of black people to animals, including monkeys and cheetahs.

China has made a significant and influential foray into Africa over the past couple of decades with huge presence from major Chinese government-backed enterprises and thousands of private Chinese entrepreneurs and workers moving to various countries to seek their fortune. The interaction has for the most part been amicable and usually seen as mutually beneficial but there have also been notable moments of cultural and racial tension in some countries.

Still, Black Panther could be a start for Chinese people to learn about the black culture, argues writer Niesha Davis on Shanghai-based digital publication Sixth Tone. “Exposure to pop culture that encompasses diverse representations of black people can exert a powerful influence on how individuals conceive of them,” Davis wrote.

The only reason Tony was in favor of signing the accords was because he hoped it'd be a balance so that he can hash things out with Pepper. I rewatched Civial War again and I couldn't believe I missed it but the his whole reason for signing the avengers away to be puppets of the UN was the hope that it would help him make up with Pepper. His own selfish needs were put forth the entire team, all because he could never keep his word to Pepper. Scumbag Tony at the fullest, dragged the Avengers down just because he wanted to sign his freedom away to save his relationship that he himself made a mess.

Cap did the right thing the entire movie, by those that supported him, and his best friend. A lot of y'all Tony fans can't seem to grasp the concept of loyalty, y'all probably out there practicing infidelity and would sell anyone out for your own personal gain. We see y'all for what a lot of y'all really are. Creating false narratives and being the prime example of cognitive dissonance.

Was this because Tony made the additional suits after he said he wouldn't make them any more? Just trying to remember/understand the Potts Stark storyline.
 
I loved his line in AoU, when Tony asked "so whats the vibranium for"

and homeboy said "oh Im glad you asked that, cause I really wanted to spend some time to explain my evil plan" then proceed to wreck them lolololololo

 
Stan is at an old age. Would be sad to see him gone, but it’s his time.

Eve if he wasn’t the first to crest this or that and some may say it wasn’t him alone. He at least was very engaged and tried to be involved as much as he can.
