IT'S MAHVEL BAYBEE!! [OT] for the Marvel Cinematic Universe (Movies & TV)
BranDonk Kong:
Yeah Iron Man 3 was horrible.
To be fair Matrix 2 was also terrible. They never should have made a sequel, and obviously had no plans to with the first one.
Oblivion:

Return of the King. Star Wars. Back to the Future. Toy Story. Disagree about Godfather III. Bourne Ultimatum. Indiana Jones 3. Mission Impossible. Rocky.
Your move. Hollywood makes just as many bad 3's as good ones.
Nile Boogie Returns:
Good move.
My retort: Godfather III is the worst sequel of all time considering it's predecessor. Rocky, Bourne and MI are not trilogies nor is the 3rd film in those movies (save for Bourne) meant to bring closure to the story. As Toy Story and ROTK, well you got me there. I can't argue those since one of the best lines ever is in Return of the King and it's one of the best films I've ever seen.
I stopped counting Star Wars as a trilogy 17 years ago when the prequels were announced. (Dear God has it been that long?)
Back to the Future and Indy are solid too.
BranDonk Kong:
I disagree about Toy Story 3. It's just as good as Toy Story and Toy Story 2, but that's only because they are all the exact same movie.

It sounds like a Space Heist Buddy Cop movie involving ridiculous alien species with direct tie-in's to the current MCU (an "Infinity Gem" & Thanos) done by James Gunn with a seemingly good cast.
I'm sure the reviews will be great and I will be there sometime during opening weekend for sure.
Hopefully there are another handful of good movies out at the same time.

Their not selling the individuals, which by my understanding don't really have a solo career to start with much like the Fantastic Four. The group is the main character and its the groups origin. Part of the reason I like Hellboy as much as I do is that they don't really bother with how they gang got together except through dialog between characters and the like.
