Haha, no, I typed Daredevil in my excitement/brain dead last night.

Mine as well!
i was trying to be helpful :P
Trailer looks rad. Glad to colossus here. Didnt know the guy from silicon valley would be in it.
Leaked X-Men: Apocalypse trailer!
Smuggled cellphone quality, fair warning..but audio and picture not too bad.
My pants are no longer suitable for wearing. So excited for this.
Oh shit, that looks fucking cool. I need to change my pants.
Holy hairless Charles.
More pics:
And now for a little bit of fun courtesy of the cast members of Agents of SHIELD and Agent Carter: they were at the SDCC and being the cool people that they are, they engaged in an epic DubSmash War.
You can watch the result here.
Not sure what to think about Apocalypse... Am I the only one seeing echoes of Mr. Freeze? Is he going to tell the X-Men to "chill"?
Either way he looks awful. I get that the comic designs wouldn't work, but the whole helmet thing looks utterly half-assed. May as well be a Bane makeover, Tron-style.
I like the '90s layout of the character bios though. Reminds me of the time of the actual AOA publishing!

That awkward moment when cosplayers do a better job than a major Hollywood production...
(Btw, the animated show was recently added to Hulu.)
so, Ant Man was AMAZING. i laughed so hard and it was so god damn enjoyable. paul rudd was absolutely perfect, as was everyone else. definitely my favorite marvel movie so far.

Hopefully this comes down in price a bit as I'd love to have this but man that is steep.
I don't know what film your programmer saw, but this was far from being the worst entry of the MCU. Not the best MCU film, but it was a solid one and definitely in my top 5 MCU films:
1. Guardians of the Galaxy
2. Captain America: The Winter Soldier
3. Iron Man
4. Thor
5. Ant Man
And now that I'm playing this game:
6. The Avengers
7. Iron Man 3
8. Thor: The Dark World
9. Hulk
10. Avengers: Age of Ultron
11. Captain America: the first Avenger
12. Iron Man 2

Any list that doesn't have Hulk eating shit firmly in last place isn't worth considering.
To be honest, I barely remember plot details of movies 9 through 12 in my list. Maybe I have a bit more memory about Avengers: Age of Ultron because it came out recently but in general these films were not too memorable (as someone else said in this board, I'm a bit "super-heroed out"). All I'm saying, these positions are a bit interchangeable. I don't feel too strongly about either of them (and for that matter, I don't have a strong opinion on movies 6 to 8 either).
And again, like someone else said here, the MCU films that introduce a character are the best ones, hence me placing "Hulk" over some other films (the exception here being "Captain American: the first Avenger"...I thought that one was a bit corny).
How would you (and anyone else in this board) rank the MCU films so far?

i LOVE the first cap movie, and i think it's my wife's favorite so far, too. i think it was more fun because the majority of it was a period piece, whereas most of them take place in modern day.
1. Ant Man
2. Captain America: The Winter Soldier
3. Guardians Of The Galaxy
4. Captain America: The First Avenger
5. Iron Man 3
6. Thor
7. Avengers
8. Thor: The Dark World
9. Iron Man
(space for distance between good movies and crap, because i love or really like all of the above)
10. Iron Man 2
haven't seen hulk or age of ultron
numbers 2 & 3 are interchangeable, because they're both equally fantastic but very, very different movies.
also, if we're throwing TV stuff into the list, Agents Of SHIELD and Daredevil would be between 5 & 6, and Agent Carter would be #1 at the top.
1 - Captain America: Winter Soldier
2 - Avengers
3 - Ant-Man
4 - Guardians of the Galaxy
5 - Iron Man
6 - Iron Man 3
7 - Thor
8 - Avengers: Age of Ultron
9 - Thor: The Dark World
10 - Captain America: The First Avenger
11 - Hulk
12 - Iron Man 2
1. Avengers
2. Cap 2
3. Thor
4. Iron Man
5. GotG
6. Ant Man
7. Cap 1
8. Iron Man 2
9. Avengers 2 ( I really need to see this again to judge fairly)
10. Hulk
--------------
11. Thor 2 (bad movie)
12. Iron Man 3 (bad movie)
Aside from Avengers 2 being a big mess for a # of reasons listed here before, my main issue is the neverending quips in the movies that are dealing with world-ending crises. It worked really well in Ant-Man, but I am so fucking tired of Stark's one-liners in the midst of dealing with potential world altering circumstances. Take it seriously like Cap 2 did and give the subject matter some actual gravitas.
Just got back from Ant Man tonight. loved it. Needed a nice simple light movie after the gargantuan slog that was Avengers 2. Loved all the easter eggs: "Tales To Astonish", Ant #427, the Spidey-referencing lines at the very end from the blogger chick, potential reference the future 3rd Ant Man that we haven't seen yet on film, Mandarin logo on one of the men interested in the pym particles.
Would have liked to see better acting out of Evangeline Lily (I love my girl from Lost/Hobbit, but she was cardboard here) & they gave Judy Greer nothing to do here just like in Jurassic World. But my face lit up when I saw Bobby Cannavale & Michael Pena (I went it pretty much blind on this). Pena's jokes almost all worked for me but as seen above ymmv. Fuck T.I., get the fuck off my movie screen and give your role to a hard-working, deserving actor who could actually use the paycheck as well. Wiki that dude, he's such a piece of shit.
Thought the MCU-related stuff worked really well. The Falcon scene, while obviously placed there by Marvel, didn't feel out of place to me. It worked, and I was glad to have Falcon get some more face time. Liked both cut scenes as well. The Civil War related one looks to be a scene directly in Cap 3, as it references "The Accords" that look to already be in place and Tony is following, which would NOT allow him to help with Bucky. Can't wait for this movie, if they don't fuck it up after the brilliance of Cap 2, then the taste of Avengers 2 will be wiped right out of my mouth. Squee!!!
New Deadpool shot. Shout out to Rogers Arena in the background...
Channing Tatum may exit the Gambit movie
Please God let this be true. Please please please please please. And for the sake of continuity, bring back Taylor Kitsch. He was not that bad in the role, he just had shitty training and that atrocity of a script.
Please God, I'll never ask for anything again! This month
