So just a bad faith attempt to poison the well and nothing to do with the conversation here.
"Few wanted to see", funny that's what they said about Guardians and then Daredevil when his show was announced. That close minded attitude needs to go
So...just like Aquaman and how it failed it's billion dollar debut? But I don't see anyone condemning his character for it.
So the DCU isn't connected enough and Marvel is too connected? Just can't win...
As with most things in life, the key is to find a healthy balance between the unhealthy extremes. As my 11th-grade English teacher Mr. Pierato liked to say, "Moderation in all things, including moderation."
Indeed, it is about balance.
That was the approach of Aristotle in Ethics, and seeking virtue. To simplify it quite a bit
And, appropriately, my calendar picture for January 2024 is "Find Balance."
Indeed, calendar, indeed.

Yes, that is the case with The Marvels, hence its historic box-office failure.

Uh huh, because as we know a Box Office Failure (and we have yet to see how it will revive on Streaming) must mean a bad movie. As cinema history has show us...
Steven Yuen is no longer attached to Thunderbolts.

They're doing full season releases for all of the new Disney+ originals this month, so it has nothing to do with what they think of Echo.
We've only gotten one movie so far focused on characters from the Disney+ series, so I'd say it's a bit early to condemn the whole idea of them crossing over into the movies.
OK, this actually is a fair point. As much as I've enjoyed the post-Endgame movies and the new characters, there really hasn't been a big breakout character like RDJ's Iron Man.
We've only gotten two movies that didn't do well in the midst of a massive decline in movie going in general, so I'd say it's a bit early to be talking about the MCU like it's on it's death bed. I'm not ready to write it off until the downward trend in the box office in general improves, if it ever does, and the MCU movies continue to bomb. So if we see Dune Part Two, Furiosa, and Kingdom of The Planet of the Apes bring in $1Billion or close to it, and the MCU movies are still barely able to make half that, then I might believe that Marvel's box office issues are specific to it, and not just part of the overall crap box office numbers we've been seeing.
Weren't 'The Wizard of Oz', 'It's a Wonderful Life' and 'Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory' all considered flops before they found new life on television?
Yes. These things are rarely black and white.
Except, It's A Wonderful Life. That is black and white.
Who else can they find to perfectly embody Sentry?
Henry Cavill.
Damn, that's a shame. Not a surprising considering how the strikes messed up with everyone's schedules, but still a shame. I don't think we ever knew who was going to play either.
Surely you need two actors - one for Bob and one for the Sentry?
Supposedly Sentry/Robert Reynolds, at least according to Robert Kirkman. (I wonder if he'd done Void as well).
I always liked the idea more of him playing someone grounded like NIghtwing or Ted Kord, but I guess I'm thinking how I see him in real life like on Conan or whatever. He seems like such a sweet dude.
Ah, that's right, I think I did see the Sentry/Void rumor.
Hopefully Yuen will get another opportunity to play a different character in a future project (assuming the issue is indeed only scheduling).
