Mirymate Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Exactly how the Accords worked was clearly vague. It only calls out the active Avengers in the page we see, no mention of Banner or Thor. Then Scott gets arrested for violating them. Or so it's implied. Spider-Man shows up on Team Tony, but there's no direct evidence that he or T'Challa signed them. Nor is there any evidence they didn't. On AoS, Coulson and Talbot discuss whether Creel or Daisy need to sign them as both are working for the government at the time. (Nothing came of the conversation, Hydra plots soon killed Talbot, but they needed to name drop the Accords so they still looked connected to Civil War) Given Thunderbolt Ross is in charge of enforcement (which, is a really weird thing for a Secretary of State to be in charge of when you think about it), I'd say its being interpreted in the harshest way possible. I mean, Ross now has a new reason to go after Banner when he turns back up. All I'm saying is they do a lot of talking about connection between the three branches, but that's mostly at the producer and above level. But their not showing it on the screen. Until then, its all just talk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Yes, all the shows would definitely be improved by including more boring connective tissue to absolutely prove they're connected. That would be totally worthwhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmonkey2k Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 RUMOR: Apparently the Infinity War trailer is going to drop between the first and second episode, on the 29th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be totally worthwhile.  It's the type of thing that doesn't need to take up any screen time. It could be a newspaper headline or a scroll on a news monitor. This stuff has to be created from scratch anyway. A talking head in the background could just as easily refer to the Devil of Hell's Kitchen as some random mugging. I'm talking Easter egg material although I'd be thrilled with Marvel One-Shots that go into slightly more depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 @stack32- Yes. yes they would. Doesn't need to take time. A line drop here and there. A passing nod, some small acknowledgement. That's all it would take. ESPECIALLY if Infinity War takes place in New York at all. A verbal run down by some NYC cop in a Netflix show talking about the Devil of Hell's Kitchen, Cage in Harlem, a Spider in Queens, and Brooklyn getting no love. No, it doesn't have to be the crazy level interconnectivity between the movies, or between the Netflix shows (AoS has no one to play with), but some acknowledgement, however small that the other branch exists would be nice.

MisterPL Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 All I'm asking for is one after-credits stinger where every live-action Marvel Studios character files into the same movie theater to stare at the audience for ten seconds. Â Stan Lee can be the projectionist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 The one connection I want the absolute most (apart from some Agents in a movie or two), is Spidey in Daredevil. One episode. Classic team up (maybe against Kingpin). Wouldn't have to be Tom in the suit. Voiceover work is extremely easy for even the busiest actor.

A few episodes here and there. I think Holland NEEDS more screen time. He's my favorite Spidey and I want to see him in costume/as Pete as much as possible while possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I think Holland – or his agent – would insist on him wearing the suit. Seeing his Spidey with Daredevil would be great. I wouldn't mind a Doctor Strange cameo either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think they'd insist he'd be suited up100% of the time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Holland's agent or Holland himself would want Tom himself in the suit instead of just doing voice work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I don't see them having a "major movie star slumming it with a subscription TV service," which is why my idea of stuntman/voiceover would make the most fiscal/schedule sense. I guarantee cost & availability is why the biggest cameo we've gotten in AoS has been Jackson (sorry Smulders/Alexander). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Spider Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Thanks for clearing that up @Trekker 42! I can definitely see both sides. I mean Tom does a lot of his own stunts anyway though, yeah? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Perlmutter can't afford Tom. Actually he can he just won't. The guy's notoriously cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is apparently why Inhumans is bad. Apparently. Still haven't seen it.  According to legend, Perlmutter would have recast the movies, especially RDJ, because after Avengers they started asking for too much money in his opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Ike likes his profit margins high. I get it. All the more reason to hire talented unknowns and sign them for multi-picture deals.  But you also need to appreciate the performers you nurtured. When a guy like Downey gets too expensive, you put Cheadle in the crimson and gold suit and introduce Riri ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrence Howard seemed much more suited to the role. It's a shame he didn't come back, because I would have very happily watched a TH War Machine  solo spin-off, or even been happy with him as IM. Cheadle just seems... kind of... out of his element. Sorry - took that a bit off-thread there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Howard definitely got screwed. He's the one who helped get Downey that role. He deserved better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Watched the first episode, other than the low budget wig on Medusa, it wasn't nearly as bad as the internet is making it out to be. I enjoyed how they showed how Karnak's ability works, and Lockjaw and Gorgon were both a lot of fun.

JeffBohn Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I'd watch an hour of Lockjaw and Gorgon. Also felt that it was better than the reviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
