spot on Freauxzen....the Infinity line was always a good read.

Thanos was a fav of mine, and I "hope" when he makes the true appearance it is nothing short of epic - cause he deserves nothing less.


I said this in the MoS thread just to mention the difference in approach, but I'll say it here too...

The real strength in this Marvel Film Universe is going to be in their ability to bring comics to life in as CINEMATIC a way as possible.

What this means is they have to make everything feel both real and fantastical all at the same time. They've done a fantastic job so far- Iron Man's high tech world, Thor's Asgard, Cap and the political/military perspective -- but I think the real test is...

Guardians of the Galaxy. If they can figure out a way to make something so wacky FIT, and be cinematically aligned to their Universe, there's almost no limit to what they can do. If they can make GoG feel right, they pretty much have carte blanche to do whatever they want.

And they've been nothing but successful so far. I don't think a bad GoG slows them down, but I think a good Guardians movie just gives them an insurmountable advantage over DC in the film arena.

And A good GoG movie bodes VERY well for a complete Thanos story line that makes sense in this universe. The potential for that story is awesome and Guardians will really set the stage or how epic it can get.

I cannot agree and upvote what you said more.

the more I read about GoG, the more i'm excited to see it.

i think Marvel kinda took a pretty big risk in doing the Thanos Cameo, because if they can't get a good tie in and story for Thanos, then they will have really hurt themselves.

I do not think they can afford to have another Fiasco situation like the Mandarin.

while I thought the twist, for what it was was good, I also feel they did a HUGE disservice to the character itself.

they had a Portrayal of the mandarin that was powerful and violent. i wish it would have been left that way.

Thanos has to be done as a cruel and manipulative villan - anything less will cause Marvel to be burned to the ground.

I agree with all of this. I think the GoG will be successful because they've already made things that would seem unbelievable, believable. In their universe anyway. I loved the first Cap movie and I think this one will be the surprise hit of all of the movies so far.
