Screw Portman, both figuratively and literally - I'm excited for the new Blade movie! I think Blade trilogy was actually the first Marvel-world movie I saw, even before Spider-Man. I'm really interested how Mahershala Ali is going to portray the main character. I hope this one will be R rated.

Aside from obvious sequels and Black Widow, the one I'm most curious about is Shang-Chi.
...And unless my friends drag me to it, I wouldn't be surprised if I avoided new Thor like plague.

Well endgame has officially passed Avatar as #1 total gross (unadjusted), something I would find more impressive without that dubious rerelease to get it back in more theaters

Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau is one of the MCu's best casting decisions. Damn shame about Carol though.

Yeah, pass... I know Jane Foster became Thor in the comics, but still...
Sif makes far more sense to become Thor, if only because she's actually worthy.

I'm really interested how Mahershala Ali is going to portray the main character. I hope this one will be R rated. Yes. Blade is what raises heart rate slightly. I hope they nail it totally. As for all the rest, there might be something good coming out. Or not. Time will tell. I'm not jumping up and down.

Avatar’s rerelease also had plenty of new scenes, with complete effects. Endgame had one short scene with incomplete effects stapled to the end credits along with some DVD extras. I can only think this was done because Iger and Fiege wanted to be #1, especially to be able to say it at SDCC.

I like Avatar. I don’t think it’s an amazing movie mind you, but it is a a feat of special effects. That’s why it was popular, it showed people something new. And the pioneering work Cameron did with his team made characters like Thanos possible. He’s basically been driving RnD for the industry for the past 20 years. That’s why I want to see the second one, because I’m sure it will show me something that dazzles me even if the story is only so so. I’ve never understood why some people resent it’s success, doesn’t seem worth it.

I have a newfound respect for James Cameron after what you mentioned about Avatar's rerelease while Disney desrves none after the blatant low effort cash grab that was Endgame's.

I realize not everybody’s asking for Jane Foster’s Thor, but I’m still being optimistic. See, I don’t think Kevin Fiege or Taika Wattiti would choose to adapt a relatively controversial recent line if neither were confident that they can pull it off in a better way. I’m taking the smart approach of waiting and seeing for more substantial footage or a trailer before I judge if it was a good idea or not.

She is a good actress after all. Just she also is reported to not really like the MCU and had bad times with it...and didn't do the best in that role...so its an odd decision. It could work.
