IM3 was terrible imo

They made Mandarin out to be some super bad ass and turns out he's just some joke

I was very upset at the Mandarin twist in IM3. I remember taking it so personally and was so gutted I almost walked out of the theatre. Mandarin is such a great character in the comics and has amazing powers I wanted to see on the screen.

But then I realized the MCU is it's own Universe. They are entitled to make changes as they see fit, and IM3 has really grew on me. Rewatching it I really enjoy the twist and see it more as Killian being the "true" Mandarin.

Plus I'll get my fix of magical powers with Dr. Strange

IM3 is the only MCU movie I haven't watched more than once and that isn't going to change.

Doctor Strange is one of my favorties but I just get this terrible feeling the movie will be a huge flop. Not sure how I feel about Cumberbatch getting the role.

One of the weaknesses in the MCU has been its villains, IMO.

Other than Loki in Thor/Avengers/Thor: DW, there hasn't really been a character with cunning, wit and abilities that seem like a match for the Avengers. The Dark Elves were a joke, Malekith and his buddy are barely a match for Frigga in H2H combat. Winter Soldier has some potential because of his deep personal connection to Captain America, sorta in a Hobgoblin-Spider-Man way, but he doesn't talk.

Ben Kingsley was at least kinda interesting because he was able to pull off both roles so well.

Cumberbatch was the best thing in Star Trek AND the Hobbit, I'm sure he'll be great.

I think Cumberbatch is a great actor he just doesn't come off as Doctor Strange-y to me

Agree 100% with the villains thing. Loki is really the only one to hit the mark. Tom Hiddleston is phenomenal.

Thought Vanko was done well, the way they mixed together Whiplash/Dynamo was meh but I liked it.

I like Ultron too.

That's about it.

Yes I think we need some villains who for and aids the heroes and owned then for one movie. Then u have to see the second movie to see the heroes try to come back.
aIDS delivered.
If I was a movie writer I think movies would be like : wtf? I don't get it. But that's awesome

Yea I agree about the villains:

Ant-Man spoiler:

Spoiler:

But I think once Thanos comes along and starts killing people very easily, we'll get the Villain we've been sorely needing

If they had ALL the rights to all the franchises, they could have good baddies like Dr Doom, Green Goblin, Doc Ock, Venom, Magneto and Galactus

There's no guarantee we're done with the villains though

If you think carefully a lot of them have simply been consumed by infinity stones, namely Malakith, Ronan, Ultron etc.

There's a weak theory going around that Thanos could summon them all to battle during Infinity Wars
