    Because I'm nut happy about yet another reboot of Spider-Man, that makes 6 reiterations of the character in live action over all, that's not even thinking about all the animated versions, no other Marvel property has been rebooted that many times. Well it's a good job these films are made for everybody not just comic book fans then . I'm not supporting this film, I'm just prepared to give it a fair chance to show me what it's got.

    Eh, okay, I'll give you that, I've no clue of the geography of the city.

    Maybe Oscorp was just off screen, maybe Stark Tower had been pulled down by TAS due to damage from the attack, as for the other two, I'm not sure why you seem to think that the entire city was seen in either film, but that's 1200 square kilometres, lots of places for a powerplant to be without having to have the Hulk run past it. Also what were the cranes for? That doesn't interest me at all, Fury is 'traditional seen' as a white man, Ant-Man is 'traditional seen' as the same age as Stark etc. Falcon is 'traditional seen' in a skin-tight leotard, the line up of the Guardians are 'traditional seen' as different to the film, These aren't comic books, they are films sharing some basic similarities.

    The Lizard attack happens after the battle of New York and SHIELD is too busy worrying about the Mandarin to worry about Electro. It's hardly a main issue any more than asking "Where was Iron Man or Hulk in the Winter Soldier"?

    Why can't they be young? How exactly does that impact a story? Doom may not be a hacker, it's my own personal theory, but the reason for the delays and lack of trailers or images may because of heavy re-shoots for fans, they did it with the last GI Joe film. They already have pushed them back. They aren't incompatible at all, there's not a single piece of dialogue or plot line or anything that precludes them being in the same universe.

    After only one trailer, that's a bit hasty. Other than the fact the cast is young, it revealed almost nothing.

    I'm in two minds about this. One one hand, moving Spider-Man into the MCU in any form is fantastic, though I would actually preferred a Netflix series on him rather than a film, it now cuts the film universe down to two (X-Men and MCU). My main issues however are :REBOOT!!!!! and recast . The first TAS film was good, the second was okay (I think a Daredevil style directors cut might have saved it), the main issue everybody had with the first film was the fact it was a reboot. Also the two films did fit seamlessly into the MCU anyway, so screw a reboot, if you must, just do a 'the other Darrin' and replace any actors you need to keep the previous two films in continuity. Secondly, for me, Andrew Garfield IS Peter Parker / Spider-Man, in the same way Hugh Jackman, Sir Patrick Stewart, and, Sir Ian Mckellen are intrinsically their roles, I'll just have a hard time seeing anyone else in that role. Edit: Actually, having seen the new stand alone film date, there's another thing. It's bumping up all my other films , I want my Captain Marvel film, it hasn't even had its lead actor announced yet, it's such a shame Marvels first female lead film (and worlds first good female lead superhero film) is getting further and further away. I'd like them to swap it with GotG 2 ideally. Now let's just tie the new Fantastic Four film into the MCU and call it a draw,... well until someone sorts out who owns Namor this week .

    Star Wars Rebels

    Wow, an episode of Rebels where the Empire is competent, imaging if all Imperials were as good as Tarkin. Odd use of the Clone Wars era police gunships though. I do hope series 2 takes us off that one planet though, maybe a DBZ is in order hmm, get on it Tarkin.

    Well the US does get a lot of films released even a few months before Britain (and maybe the rest of the world). In terms of Marvel, when it first happened with Thor: The Dark World, I thought it was because of the film taking place in London, but then Winter Soldier, GotG, Rise of Electro, and Days of Future Past all came out here first.

    Nice shot, great smoke effects, but minus 10 points for not including Jar-Jar suffering in some way .

    Fantastic Four trailer, finally. it seems they are focusing more on the science side of the film than the 'fantastic' side at the moment.

    That's what I liked best about him, the total mind control, not a Doctor Doom or Thanos level of scary, but still bloody terrifying on an individual basis . I wonder if he'll keep his Scottish accent, considering the reaction to his American one in Gracepoint, it seems likely.

    David Tennant cast as Zebediah Kilgrave in A.K.A. Jessica Jones. http://insidetv.ew.c...-jessica-jones/ So did the Purple Man regenerate from Malekith?

    Lando's awsome, I really hope we see more of him in the show, it really made sitting through the rest of the episode less of a drag.

    [MOC] Star Wars/M-Tron Mashup!

    This is a fantastic idea, those vehicles in particular lend themselves well to the M-Tron aesthetic.

    LEGO Star Wars 2015 Pictures and Rumors

    TFU is pretty much dead due to Rebels showing the main events differently. The chances of recanonisation are zero. I think you're massively over thinking this, it just means that TLG has the licence to produce another EU (or Legends) set.
