Darmik 07/12/20 6:38:53 PM #62:	The Dark Knight Rises was specifically made by Nolan to cut off any potential for him being asked to come back. It was most certainly a finale. Once Ledger died any cinematic universe launching off of the Nolan movies died with him. Funnily enough GOTG3 has been Disney's biggest fumble with the MCU so far since that movie should have been pretty much done by now. Now they've gotta wait until Gunn is done with The Suicide Squad. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:942026074] in Marvel: Li...

FortuneCookie 07/12/20 8:16:06 PM #64:	SwayM posted... Did we forget how the MCU got its start? With Iron Man. Now it may be hard to go back and look at that movie in a vacuum but it also released in 2008 the same year as The Dark Knight. And we all looked at Iron Man as a very grounded, realistic depiction of a Super Hero. Thats kind of what made the MCU so exciting was that it felt like, for some degree anyway, it wasnt a completely out to lunch Superhero film. It felt real in a lot of ways. So then it became super interesting with questions of How are they going to do Thor? Or hell Doctor Strange. So far theres been no express magic shown. And even Dr Strange introduced magic in a way that felt true to the series. Now I think weve gotten to the point in the MCU where theres nothing they cant do and audiences really dont care. But anyway my point is they could have easily done the same thing branching off from Nolans Batman. Batman could've easily had the Riddler or the Penguin as his first opponent. In choosing a centuries old demon as their first antagonist and revealing that he's actually a hoax, they made deliberate point that this Batman existed in a world without science fiction elements or the supernatural. The Dark Knight Rises feels a little out of place when compared with the first film of the trilogy. The whole "raise the temperature" notion doesn't work when the series begins with a declaration that it's super-grounded. --- 2020 going to be a CE kind of year ~ Panthera <cite>FortuneCookie posted [p:942029766] in Marvel: Li...

How a thin cape can support the frame of a 250 pound man and allow him to glide gently into the night. Theres a lot of unrealistic shit about three movies. But thats not the point.

Darmik 07/13/20 2:33:09 AM #68:	I think they could have still launched a cinematic universe after Batman Begins and TDK if they really wanted to. Superman being known to the world after the events of those movies could probably work. Especially since a theme of those movies were escalation anyway. Arrow followed a similar trajectory but that always was a cheesy CW show so people were fine with the sort of retconning that show did. But TDKR killed it. I think that was designed on purpose. Ledger died. Bale and Nolan did one movie to wrap it up and they were done. There was no point launching a cinematic universe from them at that point. The other issue really is that Iron Man always had MCU roots in with its design. The Nolan movies never did. It was always going to be something thought of after the fact. But tbh yeah I think Warner Bros would have paid the big bucks to keep Bale and Ledger around for more movies because of how crazy successful TDK was. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:942040755] in Marvel: Li...

FortuneCookie 07/13/20 9:37:19 AM #73:	ThisGuyAreSick posted... Are we just going to ignore Iron Man 1? It's pretty grounded, but the post-credits sequence hooks the fact that the other Avengers exist. Some of which are supernatural. Going by that monsters comparison I used earlier, this would be like a Phantom of the Opera movie which ends with a cameo from the vampire-hunter from Dracula. If a vampire-hunter exists, so must a vampire. And Iron Man is still a bit more far-fetched than what Batman Begins and The Dark Knight were. We have a flying man in a suit of armor. By comparison, that makes Batman's echo-location bat-summoner thing look like something that could actually exist. --- 2020 going to be a CE kind of year ~ Panthera <cite>FortuneCookie posted [p:942047590] in Marvel: Li...

Even if we agree with you that Iron Man is as grounded as the Nolan Batman movies, it still had the post-credits hook to indicate that this world is not as grounded as it was initially portrayed. It was indicating from the very beginning that there was a bigger, most fantastical world. </quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!

It was indicating from the very beginning that there was a bigger, most fantastical world. Were not that far off the same page here. Theres a reason why Iron Man never saw Fin Fang Foom or a comic accurate depiction of the Manderin. There was a barrier of disbelief that the MCU rode, and probably still exists to some extent. Even characters like Mysterio have been given an MCU spin to make them work in this Universe. The road to get to things like Dr Strange, Ant Man, Guardians, etc has been a slow methodical one. Yeah it was set up to go places. But it never shot its wad too early. Its not hard to see that Feige and whoever else is orchestrating the MCU wants the films to have weigh so its not complete mindless bullshit (what the haters would have you believe anyway). Theyre structured and paced out so the suspension of disbelief in this Universe wasnt immediately shattered by something so out to lunch. --- https://imgur.com/Fbusl2a <cite>SwayM posted [p:942085512] in Marvel: Li...

Way to miss the point lol I get the point completely Making a Wonder Woman movie shouldn't have been seen as risky but at they same time people need to stop with the talking tree/talking raccoon shit as if thats a risk to have both those things in a movie.
