It is the BEST Marvel movieof the Main Phase.

Marketing like Netflix. We have these demographics that cover various genres and we need one for each of them. Netflix has been criticized for this with canceling numerous shows over the years after a season and people realized it was just to check a box. Pretty clear Marvel is leading that charge with new content for Disney. Obviously the hardcore Marvel base will consume it, but I'm not that gullible. Pass on most of these and if not for Moon Knight, I might be totally shut out. Makes you wonder if this will segregate some of the fanbase. It might have already begun.Agatha the Movie...?
I am Groot?
Marvel Zombies? Might as well be Marvel Cosbabies...
Oh, you can bet she will...I've never read a single issue of Moon Knight.
The only thing I remember about him is that he was always a D list character, and his book always got canceled.
The last few issues of his series in the early 90s was super HOT cause Wizard Magazine promoted the hell out of the artist, a McFarlane wannabe named Stephen Platt. Overnight, the last five issues of the book were like $50 each.
About ten years later, at one of the last comic conventions I attended, I found all those HOT "Platt" issues in a dollar bin. I bought them just for the hell of it, but they were just unreadable. The covers were eye-catching but the interior art was a mess.
Anyway.
I'm sure that Agatha series is gonna be amazing. Think she'll make that face where she opens her mouth super big and winks at the camera? Boy, I hope so.
You are not wrong. Never got into Moon Knight either, but I see the potential there. Eternals was Feige's Justice League, while this is his Batman. This kind of fills that street-level/Defenders character that is sorely missed right now. Just need some badass and I am not seeing badass from Marvel right now.I've never read a single issue of Moon Knight.

And WTF is Echo?
A deaf Native America character! We have two deaf characters now! That's good since everyone knows sign language.And WTF is Echo?
Ummmm ok.... Maybe I'll watch the X-Men '97 & Spider-Man animated shows?
Just more crap to me. Thanks Disney!!
Oh wow yeah I forgot about that. Yeah you ain't kidding on IW blowing it away.I dunno, I find Endgame compulsive viewing aswell - meaning if I put that on I end up doing a Khev. And then the next night I'll go back and watch Infinity War. I think I've watched them out of order like that at least twice.
But yeah, agreed with everything that's been said about Infinity War. Top film. That's why I was a bit annoyed at the time about Black Panther getting a Best Picture nomination instead. Infinity War was easily the better movie.
Yep, same. Just finished IMAX EG and holy crap do I love that movie as well. If I want to try to be an objective reviewer then yes IW is absolutely the masterpiece of the MCU and definitely surpasses EG. But holy crap the feels in EG! So many highs and lows. I think Widow's death (that music with "It'll be okay...") is one of the saddest moments of any big picture like this. And then the excitement of them gearing up for the time tunnel, suiting up prior to Hulk's snap, and then the *multiple* euphorias in the final battle with Mjolnir, "on your left," "assemble," and all the rest.I still love Endgame though. It's slow in many more places but I love the payoff of all the heroes returning at the end... But yeah, Infinity War is damn near perfect.
All this heavy handed representation and pandering and yet EG had that really elegant and touching little moment between Nebula and Rhodey about their disabilities so to speak. "I wasn't always like this," "Me neither. But we work with what we got, right?" Bam, there you go right there. Super inspirational little moment that anyone feeling jipped for any reason about some physical ailment or infirmity can relate to.A deaf Native America character! We have two deaf characters now!

They did that for 10 years alreadyI agree. I’m tired of all these no name characters like Shang chi, eternals and America whomever. Let’s focus on the characters that made marvel marvel. Not z list losers who nobody knew about til now. Where is the push for ghost rider, a better Luke cage, the freaking mutants.
Could care less about these guys
Nah. They ain’t even scratch the surface. What you talking about? They haven’t even made a wolverine vs hulk movie. Who the hell wants to watch z list characters when we haven’t seen a proper galactus, various xmen characters, namor, or doom yet? But sure I’m sure the eternals will bring in the numbers . Oh waitThey did that for 10 years already
I’d have considered GOTG z-list before they got a movie, now look at them.Nah. They ain’t even scratch the surface. What you talking about? They haven’t even made a wolverine vs hulk movie.

Gotg atleast looks fun. I understood why they did it. But that was when the mcu was broken tbh. Not all the characters were back. You can try new things while bringing back classic characters. They don’t need to scrape the bottom of the barrel for characters anymore when they haven’t even touch some classic ones. Eternals should have been a whole Disney plus animated specialI’d have considered GOTG z-list before they got a movie, now look at them.
You’ll get your X-Men soon enough, and whatever a Namor is. They’re trying some different things now, for better or for worse.
So far worse, but it’s whatever, my investment in the MCU plummeted after Endgame so I don’t really care that much anyway.
Yeah.
Remember how good season one of Daredevil was? That feels like a really long time ago now.
