What's the problem?


I'd pay to see it.


The way the MCU is currently written, it would be EXTREMELY difficult to bring Jennifer Walters into the picture.

In the comics, she became She-Hulk because of a blood transfusion from Bruce Banner before anyone knew he was the Hulk.

Now that he's perma-green, how would you draw blood?

Now, having said that, you introduce her as Peter Parker's lawyer in the next Spider-Man film or someone interning at Nelson and Murdock...

I like the idea of having Murdock appear as Parker’s lawyer and her as the intern.

You then have Fisk, since he agreed to never go after MURDOCK, hire someone to attack Jen, leading to the need for the emergency blood transfusion from Bruce Banner, using blood that SHIELD has on hand from back when Secretary Ross was a General...

Lady Thor was fine, the idea is good. However what was not GOOD was them making Thor "Unworthy" and then changing his name to Odinson and NOT Thor. As if Thor is simply a title. If they imbuned Jane with the power of Thor, that's fine, if they said CHris Helmsworth is Unworthy to wield Moljnir and only Jane can take up the mantle? I call bullshite.

It's a little different in this case. Mjolnir was, for all intents and purposes, destroyed by Hela.

Maybe Jane finds her own.

I can see where Thor’s Ex being imbued with his powers could be pretty good and funny with the Thor they’ve established. Portman isn’t Thor anymore than She Hulk is Hulk. Marvel has my trust at this point and any of their frick ups in the past they haven’t really repeated and learned from them.

Considering that both Cap and Thor could lift the hammer in Endgame, I’m not all that concerned that they’ll take this angle.

Then there is no issue. What I took away from Ragnarok is Thor taking the place of his father Odin and being that powerful. he cane make another Moljnir or have one commision by Peter Dinklage. That's fine.

He's got both as of the end of Endgame, he could pass Moljnir to Jane and keep Stormbreaker

Cap took it back at the end of Endgame. Again the Dwarve that made the weapon is still alive. Could make another wouldn't even be call Molnir.

That gal is about 10 Happy Meals short of looking fit. Everything I've seen her in, she looks like a good meal or six is what the Dr. ordered.

Natalie Portman


I could have sworn she wasn't doing any more Marvel movies. Hell, they didn't even get her for Endgame - that was unused footage from Thor: The Dark World.

Even if you are a "pro-Jane Thor" person, why would Marvel go with Portman? She's already told them to frick off.

Maybe they'll have a Captain Marvel crossover in the movie and we'll get to see some hot Natalie Portman / Brie Larson girl on girl action.

That should satisfy both the incels and the feminists.

You guys do realize that Jane Foster becomes the Goddess of Thunder in the Marvel comics, right? They aren’t just making a female Thor for the sake of making a female Thor...

If Dr. Octopus can be Spiderman for a year or two I don't have an issue with this.

Yes...the comic made in 2014...

Comics can pander just as much as movies.

True but by all accounts it was a successful character shift.

Pandering vs new creative ideas seems to be, like many things, in the eye of the beholder.
