Hey ya'll! Let's talk about how great the first MUA was!

Did you know they made movies and comics based on it? It's true!

    I did volunteer beta testing on the Wii version of MUA 1, it was pretty sick. Best part was getting to play with the Wii a few months before it was out, it was still dev hardware at that point. I wasn't supposed to tell anyone back then, but you know, you can't trust a 16 year old to hold on to that stuff :P I actually got interviewed by MTV's gaming news site about it, but nothing ever got published. The producer I was working with told me about the Nintendo characters (Samus and Link) that they had planned on putting in the game before those got cut, but they weren't available for me to actually play.
    I also tested MUA 2, but that wasn't as neat since there was no fancy new hardware to see. There was a fun bug where if you switched characters in a multiplayer game the camera would infinitely pan out letting you see pretty much the entire level, luckily that got fixed.

    I wonder if my name will still be in the credits of MUA 1 on this version.

    Yes, it was better because it had Beta Ray Bill

    Huh

    I'm skeptical it will be any good

    But they are seemingly replacing the Avengers roster on the cartoon

    The new team is Captain Marvel, Jane Foster Thor, Ms. Marvel, Black Panther, Ant-Man, Wasp and Vision

    been meaning to do this yesterday but

    #WardLives #LMD #Redemption
    How would an LMD who believes him self to be Ward react to finding out that he is not just a AI copy but a copy with all of the traumatic crap that made Ward a Hydra Agent removed/deleted.
    Think Angel/Angelus relationship from Buffy & Angel, maybe LMD Ward trying to redeem himself in the eye of the world.

    I will say Black Bolt vs. Magneto is a throw down and also just character interaction I am super down for

    Is there any more SDCC stuff related to the upcoming MCU films to look forward to? Panels or something? I haven't really looked into the event schedule that closely.

    Marvel is expanding its line of Young Adult novels, with books coming starring Miles Morales, Captain Marvel, Black Widow and Squirrel Girl as well as a children's book titled Good Night Groot.

    Let me check...

    Yes, I am giving the exact minimum level of fucks about another hero versus hero showdown to still post about it on a forum. Uncanny.

    But him being super creepy in new an interesting ways was like half the point of the character

    I'm kind of torn because on the one hand it does look great

    but on the other hand it really bugs me that it has basically zero resemblance to the source material

    Is that Moon Girl on the Inhumans' side? That's a bit weird seeing from what I've heard, she doesn't want anything to do with Inhuman stuff. Plus where's Devil Dinosaur then if she's involved? They couldn't squeeze him somewhere on the left-side of the cover?

    Oh no I agree, so the stuff isn't removed so much as suppressed, or restricted.

    Hence the comparison I made about Angel/Angelus

    Are you implying that these big events might not take the characters and their current status in their own books all that serious?

    Moon Girl went through Terrigenesis and has come to terms with being an Inhuman

    That CW2 epilogue plot synopsis does give me hope they're building to Hydra Steve vs Marvel, which is sounding better and better to me the more I think about it.

    I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU!!!
  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    Hydra Steve vs. The Marvel Universe is a story I have no interest in and I am gonna be bummed when it is the event next year

    Like

    I don't think it is an inherently bad story or ruining the character or anything now that everything is out there

    But I don't really have any desire to read Steve Rogers: Marvel's Biggest Supervillain fighting all of the heroes

    Is there a version of that Legion trailer that I can watch? Not available in Australia because reasons. God I hate region locking content, it's so goddamn frustrating. It's a trailer!

    I have a podcast about Digimon called the Digital Moncast, on Audio Entropy.
  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    Taika Watititi had a goofy little fake vlog entry from Thor where he moved to Australia to take a break and got help from his roommate Darryl to write Tony and Steve an email about their "relationship problems"

    Yeah that's probably gonna be a good movie
