  1. I actually liked the idea that I saw posted online that have the FF have gone into space during the 60s and get shot to modern time through a worm hole. During the entire time Doom was taking over Latveria and mastering magic extending his life.
  2. The Inhuman push has died down quite a bit already, and mutant/X-Men books never really went away. If anything there is a lot of them going on now. (Generation X, X-Men Gold, X-Men Blue, Weapon X, Jean Grey, Cable, Iceman, All-New Wolverine, Astonishing X-Men, X-Men Red, etc.)
  3. Could depend on contracts already in place, Disney could can them, or they could keep them going as non-MCU related content or try to bring them into the fold.
  4. With the Inhumans failing it screws up how I would have had them come in but I'll just say my idea anyways. Mutants have already existed in the MCU for a long time they were just a lot rarer, the ones that were discovered would often just be labeled as enhanced or were taken in by Xavier who is hidings large portion of mutants at his school as well as Magneto who has brought them to Genosha Xavier still believes in eventually having everyone coexist while Magneto believes they should be separated from humankind entirely. Over the years Charles has been hiding the discovery of mutants by wiping scientists minds who were on the verge of discovering the X-Gene. That is until the Inhuman/Nuhuman, alien, enhanced, etc population began to rise which began evolving humans in a more rapid pace making Xavier and Magneto unable to hide/remove them before being discovered and eventually leading to the discovering of the X-Gene in the MCU. The X-Gene appearing more rapidly as a defense mechanism to evolve humans allowing them to be on an even playing field for aliens and the like. This leads to a widespread fear of both Nuhumans and Mutants that are popping up all over the world. It's one thing to have to deal with heroes and mad villains it's another to have kids randomly turning into bombs during school. So yeah basically just have them always be there, it isn't perfect but I'd rather have that then making the X-Gene man made, or making them from an alternate universe or something.

Okay scratch my earlier comment, those last 4 episodes are some of the best I've seen from Marvel Netflix it's easily on par with Daredevil, albeit a very different type of show.

I've been very much enjoying it so far (Episode 10 as of now). A bit of a slow start but it's also a lot more complex than what I thought I'd be getting. If you want the Punisher just murdering people every episode, you're not going to be happy those episodes exist of course but they're spread out pretty evenly. The series is also fairly stand-alone, with only a handful of familiar faces popping up so if you're expecting a ton of MCU connections you'll be disappointed as well.

That being said as of now if I were to rank it with the other (again on episode 10) I'd say it's better than Iron Fist and Luke Cage, with it being either on par or slightly above Jessica Jones. Daredevil is still top dog, but that doesn't make this or the other shows bad just Daredevil is really good. (Defenders isn't listed cause it's not so much of a show and more of an event)

Also keeping in mind I haven't finished it, but spoilers below for anyone who as or has at least made it to episode 10.

Anyone else getting the vibe Dinah could end up being the MCU's Lady Punisher instead of Lynn Michaels?

No idea. If anything I generally watch things I think I'll dislike in the hopes I'm wrong. Very rarely do I even bring up things I don't like unless it's literally the topic for it.

Shouldn't be using RT for shows anyways as it's a mess. Some people rate the show after 1 episode, some 6, some the entire season. Not to mention the amount of reviews is significantly lower when it comes to shows especially as the seasons go on. The pooling consensus just doesn't work when you use it for that form of media in comparison to a media that is based around supplying around 2 hours of entertainment in a single session. It'd be like a person watching 10 minutes of a movie then reviewing it, just isn't ideal.

That being said I'm not saying Iron Fist was perfect it wasn't. A couple episodes were very poorly done, Danny lacked personality which ultimately led to a lot people hating him (outside of the people hating him because he was white...), and the most interesting parts of his character's origins and what makes him feel more unique, the mystical aspect, was barely there. I get what they were going for personality wise but if they keep slow burning that no one will be around to watch the more fun loving part of the character. Like the DCEU doesn't need to have every character be Batman, not every character in the Marvel Netflix needs to be Daredevil, it's okay to be light with the other characters. Also giving your lead actor ample of time to learn fight scenes for a show that centers around martial arts would help a lot as well. Not to say all the fight scenes were terrible they weren't but they could have been done a lot better given the shooting schedule wasn't so fast paced, and that they didn't pretty much go straight into shooting the show right after hiring Finn Jones.

As for JL, no idea haven't seen it yet.

Zendaya as MJ: Ruined our chances of getting a comic-accurate MJ in the MCU.

She's not MJ though. KF has come out and said that. That being said we probably won't be getting MJ or Gwen in the MCU simply due to the other Sony films, just like they want to use villains that haven't been used. The rest I agree with, though a lot of these are less miscast and more how they're used in the movies in general. Zoe acts nothing like Gamora does in the comics but neither do the movies really portray her that way either, hell there are major changes done to the majority of the Guardians in the movies. Same goes for Lois that's less of an acting thing and more of the way she's written to not nearly be as cool.

So a lot of these are less miscast and more or less written to be completely different characters which I find to be more annoying then a simple miscast.

EDIT: If anyone asks I'm not back on the site, just feeling under the weather so I thought I'd lurk for a bit to help pass the time.

Given the many notifications I get a day, gonna go out on a limb and say you didn't notice I left the site. So if you could remove me from the list that'd be swell. :P

@otaconmgs:

He's mostly good, maybe a tad neutral if anything. As for the black hole last I saw it was a portal to I think the Mojoverse and it would suck up people if he took off his mask. He's been mostly just hanging out mediating in recent books. In Inhumans vs X-Men he was shown to be a lot more compassionate to Inhumans and to stop anyone from getting hurt.

I think it's time for to exit this site, the biggest thing that was keeping me around was the wiki, but my OCD on that front has made that a hassle so it's probably for the better that I leave the site altogether. For all those that know me or don't I wish you well. If you need to get a hold of me for some reason (though I don't see why you would need to) you can just message me on twitter @FearTheLiving.

Anyways was fun while it lasted. Goodbye, Comic Vine.
