I've watched GotG like 20 times. How can you not like that one!

I haven't seen the new Fantastic Four yet but from everything I've heard it may test my unconditional love of comic movies.

Trailer's fantastic. A Dr. Strange movie is even more unlikely than a Thor movie, and this one looks to be every bit as good as Branaugh's Thor film. Bring it on!

Felt more like an extended teaser. Liked what I saw though... except for Tilda Swinton. Nothing against her, but the casting feels even more forced now that I've seen her in action.

That's one I won't be buying.

Hmmm, here's a semi-plausible reason for not making The Ancient One a native Tibetan, so as not to anger China who seeks to control Tibet and not allow it to be a free state, and alienate 1/4 of the global ticket sales China represents. Not sure I buy it but this commercially oriented reason feels better than any creatively based choice.

I can buy that. Just look at the last Transformers movie. It had a whole mini plot about the Chinese government trying to help its people and it so did not totally feel like it was shoehorned it right?

In a related story, wasn't Selina Gomez recently banned from China because they found a random pic she took with the Dalai Lama a few years ago?

It will do more than test, my friend. It will make you wonder about the very fabric of the universe itself.

No exaggeration, I would rather watch "Batman and Robin" over and over for the rest of my life than see a single frame of that schlock fest ever again.

Exactly my thoughts. Kind of Inception meets Batman Begins. I'm stoked for this. Marvel is doing very well with some of their more obscure characters than they are with the big names. Ant-Man and GOTG were both really entertaining rides. This looks to follow suit. (no pun intended)
