[Reverend]

So It Begins...

Cloak and Dagger canceled.

Hate to say it, but while I enjoyed the show well enough, I won't miss it all that much. On the plus side, the characters will get a final appearance in 'The Runaways', so that's something. One assumes Runaways probably won't be getting a 4th season. Is that the last of the Marvel shows then? It's kind of impressive how many in the last year alone have ended, one way or another.

This all actually makes me glad AoS got a chance to do a proper final season before the change of the guard.

Could be fun, although I always get a bit nervous when they cast non-actors for this kind of stuff.

Eh, the Neil Gaiman episode was a hoot.

Cloak and Dagger at least ended on a note of "If this is the end, it's a fine end". All the loose threads were wrapped up, all the villains defeated and them leaving town together serves as a good ending.

It's the last live action show, but there are still the Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Spider-Man animated series on Disney XD.

Variety reports that Hailee Steinfeld may have a prior commitment that could prevent her from playing Kate Bishop. Steinfeld herself claims to know nothing about the Hawkeye show.

Runways is due to come out in December, and AOS won't be out til next year. If Runaways doesn't get another season, then Agents Of Shield will be the last of the current live-action Marvel shows.

Both first, and last. That's impressive.

That said, as far as we've been told, Helstrom is still happening. They just made the big cast announcement a few weeks ago.

Martin Scoreses has slightly backed down on his criticism of the MCU, now saying they are "a different form of cinema, or a new art form".
Guess he must be have heard how much he pissed people off.

He's not the one who needed to back off. It's Coppola who went on a full on rant.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

Meh. Still don't care.

 

[Tosk]

Guess he must be have heard how much he pissed people off.

Or he's utterly sick of people bringing it up.

 

[Thestral]

Probably. At a certain point all the whining, petulant fanboys probably made him throw up his hands just to shut them up.

 

[TREK_GOD_1]

Or he's utterly sick of people bringing it up.

Probably the situation, as he's seeing some are being incredibly irrational in going on and on attacking him for his view of superhero movies.

Longtime Marvel producer Trinh Tran talks to screen rant about Hawkeye. She says that the series will explore Clint's backstory while being heavily influenced by Matt Fraction's run on the comics. I guess we can assume that the Fraction influenced parts will be the backstory, from before he hooked up with Laura.

Aren't the writers, who haven't signed exclusive contract independent contractors? Can you force people like that to take drug tests?

I would have to imagine it's the editors and stuff simply because enforcing drug tests for freelance writers who sometimes live in other countries seems all but impossible.

Probably. No sense in fighting a winless battle.

Brilliant! Where is this?

 

[JD]

That is hilarious.
According to ScreenRant the working title for Shang Chi and the Ten Rings will be Steamboat.
I'm kind of surprised these working titles are allowed to get out to the public, I thought the whole point of them was that they would hide what movie they were working on.

allegedly Australia.

At this point, it's a foregone conclusion that it will get out. But it at least keeps casual passerbys from flocking to a movie set, I suppose.
