Spoilers Thunderbolts* grade and discussion thread

[Tuskin38]

Finally watched Thunderbolts, it was good

 

[The Nth Doctor]

The film is finally on Disney+! Alas, no extras so far.

...and I continue to lament how we won't be getting an Assembled episode for this film. From the few behind-the-scenes videos that we've seen has shown how much damn fun the entire cast had in making this film and I want to see more of that. This was the perfect film to be covered by Assembled.

 

[Commander Troi]

We re-watched this yesterday. It was a lot tighter than I thought originally, with several references to "voids" before Bob's dark side comes out to play. Florence Pugh is a gem.

Even in the dullest of films she's never been less than perfect. I'll be amazed if she doesn't have an Oscar before she's 40.

Watched it recently myself. Quite enjoyed it. Characters are a lot of fun.

 

[Crewman Commander]

I enjoyed it. And yes, Florence Pugh is a delight. The whole cast was really good, for that matter.

Still processing Elaine going to the dark side!

Looking forward to Avengers: Doomsday (2026).

Elaine was always a bit on the dark side.

As I suspected, once this hit streaming the fans would be all over it...

 

[Campe]

Personally, I just don't have the time (or budget) to go to the theater for every single movie these days. Once my kids are out of chldcare in about five years, maybe. But for now, I have to wait on a lot of movies.

Not me.


I was waiting for the Blu-ray.

 

[Crewman Commander]

Superman (2025) was literally the first and only movie I've seen in the theater since the pandemic. I'm not going to apologize for that.

This was not good.

I watched it on D+ last weekend. It didn't really bring anything new to the Marvel Universe.

That's the consensus on Rotten Tomatoes as well.

That's not saying much.

That's not saying much.

Same for your earlier comment.

 

[Tosk]

I enjoyed Thunderbolts* quite a bit. None of your opinions matter to me in the slightest.

 

[theenglish]

Thunderbolts* was the best MCU in several years.

 

[Kai "the spy"]

Certainly of this year.
