Really pleased with this. Talented actor and a bloody good bloke from everything I've seen/read about him. Did a great job in the First Omen recently to add to his pretty impressive CV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe because as a Brit I know his voice so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted Saturday at 13:25 VT Supporter Share Posted Saturday at 13:25 Captain America: Brave New World is going through reshoots which will include adding in a new villain, played by Giancarlo Esposito, in a role that will also extend onto a new series apparently. I just can't get excited about them adding a character with a view to using them in a Disney+ series, and it kinda feels that is part of the problem they've had with this phase, chucking shit into things without much forethought and ending up with pigs ear covered in things they hope are glitter. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never a good sign when you hear the word "re-shoots". Usually a recipe for a stinker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Marvel it's a bit more complicated, in that they don't make movies the way other studios do and they essentially build in reshoots to their schedules and they expect they'll need to redo chunks of their movies. The only time you'll hear about reshoots with Marvel being an issue is where they've got particularly big problems or they're going something big. In this case, I don't think you can spin chucking a new villain in as less than big, even if it's a secondary or tertiary villain it's still a big change to do. There have also been whispers that the production and development of this film has been difficult, and test screenings supposedly haven't been great and seem to have inspired them redoing big chunks of it - there was talk they'd scrapped a few big action sequences for instance. Suffice to say I suspect it might be a mess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted Saturday at 21:33 Share Posted Saturday at 21:33 Maybe the timing for introducing the Sabra character isn't all that great? Having a Mossad hero will get some negative reactions I'd imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they wanted to introduce a global intelligence service character, do literally anywhere else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've added this character in whole cloth, he wasn't in the script originally and it seems very odd to throw Kang in to this movie where he doesn't really fit. Esposito also allegedly turned down playing a Kang variant already. And the reports of the character appearance in the reshoots don't scream Kang - supposedly he's been seen in a tactical get up with a number of guns and an axe. It seems to me this is a new character and probably representative of them having ideas for some other project and wanting to introduce him now.

Got absolutely panned at the time if I remember by the critics but it ‘s far better than I remember and quite moving in places. Farrell is excellent as Bullseye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s very dark when people get killed they get killed properly and portray hell’s kitchen as it should be Garner. is really good as Electra and Affleck is good as Murdoch/daredevil The kingpin is good as well Edited Sunday at 13:21 by Follyfoot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted Sunday at 13:28 Share Posted Sunday at 13:28 I think DD with kingpin is the best property marvel has right now if I'm honest, probably Spiderman 2nd That said I've not bothered with echo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted Sunday at 13:37 VT Supporter Share Posted Sunday at 13:37 Not MCU (...yet) but Daredevil is a good movie, in it's directors cut form. It got panned by some for Affleck's performance, but he's on a hiding to nothing with that take on Daredevil, and doing blind characters is always a balancing act between capturing the look and actions of someone who doesn't use their eyes and just looking like you can't act, and it also got slammed for being unoriginal. The directors cut is much better and let's them focus more on Murdock as a lawyer, and his Catholic guilt, which in turn also lets the film balance it the dumber hokier stuff far better than the theatrical take. I've always quite liked it, but then Daredevil is one of my favourite characters and I'm sucker for the overblown goth, soft metal angsty melodrama styling.
