She’s a fricking smoke show, and a really good actress.

Well. So far, it looks like they aren't screwing this up.

I honestly don't know how she's not in more shite. She's the full package.

Meanwhile they keep shoving Zendaya down our collective throats.

Be glad she's already in the Marvel world as a mediocre Mary Jane, because if she wasn't she'd be Storm. Hell, she'd probably be the White Queen.

The best live action MJ we've gotten so far, Kirsten Dunst is a solid actor but the Rami trilogy did her and the character a disservice especially the third one.

I don't disagree, although I'd add the third one did a disservice to everybody involved. I think "so far" is a fair modifier for her. For MJ I'd describe Dunst as good, not great, and Zendaya is adequate and not much more.

I feel like the MCU MJ has done great at working as this Peter's girlfriend. Might have to do with the great chemistry between Tom and Zendaya so I have no problem with her being MJ

That being said I wouldn't mind if they introduce Gwen or Black Cat into Peter's life in the next one with MJ still being the endgame for his romantic life

Would like to see Anya as Black Cat or Gwen Stacy

I'd rather they bring her back as Illyana/Magik, it wasn't a good movie but I liked her in New Mutants.

I thought all the characters were spot on in that one…just the story sucked and the lesbo stuff. I have the run from the Graphic Novel up to the Demon Bear issues and don’t remember that being a thing.

Her uncle Hugo ain't no slouch either. I don't think I've ever seen him play a bad role. Dude always seems to knock it out of the park.

Between her and the actor for the new Black Panther, it seems Marvel pretty much killed the Alien Romulus sequel.

Fede Alvarez had already left. I think it was already dead.

That means it’s time to finish the Prometheus trilogy. Get Ridley on the phone.

The whole “adding the X-Men into the MCU” is dumb to me.

The X-men are better than the MCU. They have sooooo much material there. They don’t need to be in it.

Aren’t there X-men in the avengers doomsday movie? Why are they all being cast again?
