yup. Dr Strange is hella good. some crazy visuals in that one.
the lack of some women (or any non-white dude) main characters is really starting to show though. Can't wait for captain marvel.

You just found out about this Stevie?
SJW dorks were outraged by the fact that Johansson is to be the main character in a jap franchise film, since the summer at least.
The japs themselves of course, don't give a bleep about that, since their IQ is not -1.

I had no idea until I saw the trailer. I don't give a snow who plays the main just as long as it's done well and the movie is good. But this just opens to me the question, is this the future of Japanese franchises in media? Dunno about that, especially after Dragonball Evolution which wasn't exactly a success, but probably one of the lamest adaptations I've ever seen.

dragonballz was lame to begin with, though. i never could stand any of that snow show. the fact that they even tried to make a movie out of it, only makes me laugh.

Well, they have some starting material to work with. Ballsy move to make the ancient one a woman though A friend of mine criticized the visuals for being tiresome, the script for being formulaic and the film's sense of humour but I had no such issues. Marvel in general has a tendency to overdo it but it had some amusing scenes, especially in the final confrontation. Cumberbatch is awesome

the most comic books i've ever read were jthm and squee!(i own all of vasquez's work, invader zim, too). before that, it was predominantly ghost rider's "spirits of vengeance", which was all of 3 comic books, i think.
i've read books much more than i've ever read comics.

Frank Miller, Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman are good places to start, any bet that you'd enjoy their material. Graphic novels tend to be more mature than regular comics, like V for Vendetta, 300, watchmen to name a few. And Gaiman's sandman is such an amazing read, heard it will be adapted into a movie.

War Dogs was a good movie, the acting was a little inadequate at times but other than that, interesting story, interesting characters and good writing. It really felt like a Scorsese movie with the main character narrating in the back and use of popular music as a mood setter.

that's how he writes. he's a snow writer. stay. away. Not worth your time.
I personally wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Marvel. Lighthearted, spiderman-esque comic with a lot of humour and a great cast. Her first antagonist is a resurrected, millennial hating Thomas Edison with the head of a Cockatiel who has a bunch of dangerous and weird inventions and puts crocodiles (with lasers on their heads) in the sewers. Good stuff and great art.
I've also heard the latest run of Thor's been pretty great and Iron man and Black panther is about to get new runs so it might be worth keeping an eye out if you're interested.

With the ancient one they were screwed either way (they still had to take a way a role from an asian actor but if they hadn't they'd have a seriously racist caricature and dear lord i don't want to be in their position.) but Tilda was a fantastic choice and they handled surprisingly well. Props for that.
