Trailer Avengers: Doomsday | Only in Theaters December 18, 2026

[Zaukrie]

Overt 4th wall breaking "jokes" in things that are not intentionally surreal or post modern comedy really works me. It is never funny, and almost always the creators patting themselves on the back for being clever.

Just tell a good story.

This.

If you're gonna hang a lampshade through a fourth wall ... better do it with style and not some "aren't we so clever" smarm.

I am almost as tired of lampshading as i am of grimdark.

What’s the big deal about the trailer? Did I miss something?

Thor talking about his kid to his dead dad. Actually seems normal and mundane

I clearly am the audience for this. I want to see them come back. I hope Thor and Wolverine share screen time etc etc

I’m seeing a lot of stories of movies to watch on new years. Netflix has a similar 1 to a lot of the new season yea and I noticed most of the movies are pre 2000. Harry met sally seems to be on a lot of these lists and it’s 1989.
My argument would be I’d rather have the whole cast from great escape or the avengers than some of the new crap. Now most or all of the great escape cast is dead so I’d rather bring back the best of the rest when it comes to superheroes.
I look at dr who when they brought back Sarah Jane and others that are were/now old and not recognizable to who fans of the new generation. It was a good idea that should have been done 40-50 years ago (they brought back pertwee companions and 1 mention from the first dr.
Same goes with hemsworth and whoever else. There’s real nostalgia there/ they are better actors than most or all of the new avengers which may not be high praise

New stuff bad. Old stuff good. Yes, we got it.

“Only nostalgia! Nothing new!” is one of the biggest problems with movies right now. I’m an old man, so I also love a good bit of nostalgia pandering. But if no new stories, characters, or actors are allowed, what’s going to fuel the nostalgia craze in 20 years?

And all those actors you want brought back again and again? At one point, they were the new choices, that I’m sure someone would have been complaining about if the net had existed. Hemsworth was practically unknown at the time (if I recall correctly, the only reason Cabin In The Woods got released was that someone retroactively realized they had a shelved movie with Thor in it).

And Morrus summed it up more elegantly than me, but I really think you’re glorifying the past. There were obviously standouts, but on the whole, I don’t see the current crop of actors being worse. Sure, some of the movies have been wobbly, but none of that was the actors fault. And I do think the last few have been much stronger (after Brave New World, anyway…shudder).

So whose fault is it? The number 1 anticipated movie on ign was doomsday (mine is the odyssey)
Pedro pascal was also a mostly unknown and yet does he command the room like Robert Downey? Chris prat seems to have it. But is it his scripts or did he do the best with his opportunity on parks/guardians and turn himself into a megastar.
Same with Michael b Jordan. Starts off on wire and now a headliner. He’s the best part of black panther (my opinion).
You kind of know when there is a good actor that can make a studio a lot of money most of the time
Sebastian Stan, Dominque Thorne Anthony mackie and Brie Larsen don’t have it. They don’t put people in seats television or movies and they have been given . No body will give 2 bleeps if any of those 4 are in another marvel movie so it’s good nostalgia vs bad. They are wooden compared to say Giancarlo Esposito who is 67 and when he is on the screen I take notice. He’s the best part of a crappy captain America movie and mostly has a screen presence

Sorry, I was just amused by the thought that Pedro Pascal was a relative unknown, when he's practically legendary for being in everything
