I honestly doubt that these movies are gonna be particularly close adaptations of any one story
Like Civil War and Winter Soldier are the closest they've come to doing direct adaptations and they are both pretty wildly different outside of the core ideas of "Cap vs. Tony over registration" and "Bucky is alive, brainwashed, evil".
It's probably gonna be about as direct as "Thanos wants the Infinity Stones"
Heck it feels like what they are actually taking a bunch from is the hickman Infinity crossover.

Yeah, they've got the Black Order, the Outriders and the invasion of Wakanda
But like I said I bet that's gonna be about the extent of it
Its gonna be like batman begins, all the trailers are gonna make you think brolin is thanos but it turns out hes just a henchman that looks like a kicked testicle and dinklage is actually thanos

Technically Pip's defining trait is that he's annoying as shit. He'd be exactly the same character at 4' or at 6'.
But that also means he's annoying as shit.
Apparently he was spotted with red hair recently, which is the same color hair as Pip. But it's also the same color hair as Starfox so, uh, pick your poison.
I would hope they don't cast him as a character who has a defining trait of "looks weird/is small/has a big head"
Fox casting him as Trask was cool as hell, ain't no reason Trask couldn't be a little person
I agree, I'm just thinking along the lines of "executives see he looks good in facial hair similar to the character, don't consider the bad optics otherwise."

I mean Pip is literally named Pip the Troll and is a pretty dang short character
And yes, he's small in the comics; what I'm saying is that doesn't really play into his character much. He's easily intimidated, but when dealing with the likes of Thanos or the Avengers, you can be 6 feet tall and still be intimidated.
EDIT: And yes, it's a bad look to cast Dinklage for this role. But it's a bad idea to put Pip into the movie at all. He's a wildly tone-deaf character at the best of times and is better suited to a more light-hearted film. He's the kind of character you wouldn't be surprised to show up in Guardians or Deadpool.

Granted but what if he’s the watcher because that would be dope I️ think
Can they use The Watcher? Thought that license was wrapped up with Fox.

I just disagree that you can gloss over the weirdness, hypothetically, of casting the most prominent little person actor on the planet as a short, grotesque creature literally named a troll by saying his appearance doesn't "play into his character much".

I never said that it glosses over that fact. I said that wasn't Pip's defining character trait.

Are you a Muppet, Knob?
Remember that Peter Dinklage is in this movie and we have absolutely no word on who he is playing and he hasn't been in any cast photos or set pics?
They're usually not such a tight ship with that shit
It's got me curious
Are we talking about Farscape?
Heck it feels like what they are actually taking a bunch from is the hickman Infinity crossover.
DON'T TOUCH THE PUPPET

he's adam warlock
He's Trask again
No, you guys:
Don't go there, Marvel.
Man this would be great
Had no idea Thanos was a ballchinian, not that these movies would be crossing over with the Men In Black series
He's playing the gauntlet.
My actual guess is
D3 Steam #TeamTangent STO
They wouldn't dare.

They should subvert expectations with Dinklage's casting
Oh hey, what about the super strong Black Order dude, I can't remember his name
Oh wait, no let's definitely not do that

It would not be a great look, in my opinion
Granted but what if he’s the watcher because that would be dope I️ think
They haven't announced any of the people playing the Black Order so I wouldn't be shocked if they were some big names

They can use The Watchers. They can't use Uuatu.
Aw

Ok this but only if he calls one of the bad guys a wizard from the moon
