Nope, nevermind. It's a firewall thing. Used an exit node and everything shows up. thanks for looking into it.

Yeah, all of the old posts with embedded youtube links are still visible to me. It's the newer posts that don't show up. Could this be a plug-in thing as I've never used any? When I hover the mouse over, It has this message saying "It looks like the webpage at https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/pLZ_za4a-88?feature=oembed might be having issues, or it may have moved permanently to a new web address."

I'm also having the same issue, but more on youtube videos. I can't seem to see the embedded youtube links, and only shows up as a box with an icon of a cloud in the middle with three dots inside. I'm using Microsoft Edge.

The title Brand New Day does fit the narrative, and somewhat aligns with the comics (everyone forgetting Peter Parker is Spider-man). Despite how unpopular the comics rendition was, I'm still looking forward to this. Interesting to see if Kingpin will make an appearance since the Punisher and Daredevil will seem to make an appearance.

Just seen this yesterday. It's a refreshing take on the classic first family of Marvel. It was rather predictable at times, but it was still enjoyable. Mid-credits scene was great, but was disappointed with the post credit scene. I take it that some of the classic cartoons they used was newly animated since it has an uncanny resemblance to Pedro Pascal. I also remember watching the original cartoons as a kid, and Reed doesn't look like that.

I really do love the naming convention for these. It's so amusing. Bio Techno Man for the win!!!

Welcoming the 40th anniversary would be nice with a new chapter.

The most probable reason is that the manga and light novels are already licensed in North America so no freelance translation group wants to touch this. I believe Seven Seas Entertainment has the right to the series and they should have this available for purchase here: I’m in Love with the Villainess (Light Novel) | Seven Seas Entertainment

Damn! This is unexpected and really sad. Lost another good writer.

I just saw this yesterday, and I haven't felt this excited about the next MCU movie for a long time. Everyone was applauding when the second post credit scene showed. I should have seen Captain America Brave New World first (was waiting for it in Disney+) and there were some connections to that movie which lost me.

I'm just excited to see Bucky Shine. Would be cool if we see him as badass as he was in Winter Soldier. The Disney+ series didn't do him justice. I also can't get enough of Yelena. Loved her in Hawkeye. As for the Red Guardian, I just can't stop seeing him being Jim Hopper from Stranger Things.

This, I'm actually looking forward to. I'm happy that B tier characters always get the good story writing.

I guess this is in theaters everywhere now. This opened in our local cinema two days ago and still haven't had the chance to watch this. Anybody seeing this and how did you like it?

Well, now I'm glad that I have a subscription for Amazon Prime. Is it true that this iteration won't be "Peter Parker" but a completely different character?

Looks very "Fan-ish" to me. One that I'll choose over any Hollywood version anytime. Still, good job.

Very impressive collection. I guess obsessed would be an understatement 😄. By any chance you also have the Robosen?

Just recently finished a quick kit, the SD Sinanju that my Daughter gifted me. Had no choice but to assemble this, less my kid get upset. Paint job is not so stellar given how much time and materials I had on hand, didn't even bother to paint the rifle anymore:

There are a lot of different ideas and I'm sure everyone of those will work great. As long as they have good writing, then I'm sure the audience will be receptive of them. Lately, it seems like they plotted everything and removed the flexibility of the film makers which is why I think the later movies feels so rigid. In the case of D&W, they mentioned that they approached the studio without even a finished script, and just made up everything along the way. Something that is parallel to the first Iron Man movie. This, I hope, will also launch another renaissance for the MCU. I guess Passion and Fan boy-ery is also a necessary trait to make a good Marvel movie.

Yeah, if you're saying that Doom is just a Tony Stark without morals, we already have that in Superior Iron Man. But then Tony Stark's morals in the comics has always been questionable for me. I'm definitely sure RDJ can act differently. how else would he have won an Emmy, a Golden Globe and an Oscar?

It seems to me that the plan is to bring in the mutants from the other universe, as hinted by the post credits in The Marvels. Or that Reed Richards could be heavily involved with this. Who knows? It's either Marvel has been intentionally misleading us or they're still trying to figure out things. My bet is the later.

One nitpick I found was that Wolverine is missing his shoulder pads. Also, doesn't Channing Tatum looks kinda fat for Gambit? I'm not talking about his build, I mean, look at his round face. But then, that's probably just me.

Wow! The movie has now grossed over $1B. I really enjoyed seeing a lot of the variants, especially the Cavillrine. But noted that despite his frame being very impressive, there seems to be something off with the way his face looks. I don't know if it's because he only shaved his moustache, which seems to be a dig at DC, but I feel that he looks too hairy? The phrase "Avengers..... Flame On!!" and the expression that followed was priceless. I loved Chris Evans as Captain America, and I'm glad to see him as Johnny Storm here instead. And because of this movie, Bye Bye Bye has been stuck on my head for weeks. The Dance scene at the opening was really great and refreshing.

Yeah, I'll wait one more weekend before saying anything. It's cool that this may become the highest grossing R-rated file ever. I'm planning on watching it again.

Do you mean Wonder Festival 2025? 2026 seems to be way far off to be planning now. Looks like it's scheduled at February 9 (based on the official site). I would want to go, but my Japanese Visa expires this year, and it's a pain in the @$$ to get visas for the entire family. Well, hope you have fun.

So, are we allowed to talk spoilers now or do we wait until next week? (as if Social Media hasn't already)
