‘Captain Marvel 2’: ‘Candyman’s Nia DaCosta To Direct Sequel
Nia DaCosta, who directed the anticipated reboot of Candyman, is in early talks to come on as director of the sequel to Captain Marvel.deadline.com
i hope there is more to that resume than that. CM was meh, but I’d be up for another film if it’s a step up.
The remake is being produced by Jordan Peele (wrote and directed Get Out and also rebooted the Twilight Zone for CBS All Access). Peele apparently picked DaCosta for Candyman. The new trailer looka actually pretty good:

Yeah I had seen the trailer, it does look good. But we haven’t seen the movie yet. I’m just cautious about a CM sequel is all.The remake is being produced by Jordan Peele (wrote and directed Get Out and also rebooted the Twilight Zone for CBS All Access).

I hope Larson actually has her feet under her at that point. I feel like everything was rushed for Captain Marvel. The fact she filmed her Endgame scenes before filming her movie, which came out before Endgame, I think just made everything really blocky.
Yeah, I too am hoping Captain Marvel 2 is a major step-up from the original. While the first one was serviceable, it was lower-tier MCU for me, not only due to marginal story and directing, but also a stiff meh performance from Bri Larson. The original was the pinnacle of a movie that spends the entire moving telling you what is happening and how you should feel, when it should be showing you. I actually thought Bri was better in Endgame than her own movie. I still hold that Bri was miscast in the role, but I'm hoping she proves me wrong with the sequel.
I'm curious when the sequel will take place. I'm guessing it will be another pre-Infinity War film, like Black Widow, but taking place on the other-side of the galaxy. I think we need to see more character development with what Captain Marvel was doing before Nick Fury
(or was it Talos?)
Has anyone here been watching the final season of Agents of Shield? If so, what are your thoughts so far? I'm curious.
The story. Because she was saving that alien race, it made me feel like I was watching an old StarTrek episode. How many times have we seen this story play out?
CM2 had better have something big in store, something smarter than the first film or the CM trilogy will go the way of the Dodo, Titanic and Hawkeye job applications.
I don't know if Captain Marvel 3 is really going to happen, or at least not as a solo Captain Marvel film. There's a large initiative to get the Ms. Marvel/Kamala Khan series on Disney+ which would eventually lead to the character joining the big screen. You can see that Kamala Khan is really being pushed by Marvel/Disney, as she is one of the main playable characters in the new Avengers video game coming out later this year (Hulk, Iron Man, Thor, and Black Widow are the others. Spider-Man is a Playstation exclusive and Hawkeye was just teased as a playable character yesterday). I could see it being far easier (and cheaper) to get development rolling on a Ms Marvel Disney+ series in the next year or two, and by the time the character is ready for her big screen debut it would be around the time of CM3, so a team-up would make sense.

I think that was a very solid story. Nice twist with the Skrulls. Good layers to setting out Cap's backstory and good action. I'm not sure we watched the same movie.
Just curious, but who else outside of me enjoys following and posting on these nerd threads (MCU, DCEU, Star Wars, Star Trek... etc.) on here more than the actual sports ones? I'm just curious. Don't be afraid to say no too.
I like the different decade nods. The plot and villain aren’t as good as previous seasons and the social commentary is heavy handed. Not having something to tie into cinematically is hurting it too. I like the show overall but am ready for its end I think. It’s spent. I would like to see Coulson back in the movies if possible.
I do generally post more in off topic threads than actual Cyclones related stuff. Don’t get me wrong, I love sports, but over time my attachments here have grown more towards the community itself rather than the topics that brought us together in the first place.
I watched the series finale earlier today, and I must have had some dust floating around in the room at certain points...
Anyway, I really enjoyed the finale. I thought it hit all the right spots and left everyone in a good place.
I liked the final season; not as much as I've liked other seasons, but I think it was an improvement from last season, which even for a comic book show like AoS was just a little bit too out there for me.
The nerd threads are typically a lot more enjoyable and manageable than the sports ones. Plus no stupid arguments. So yes haha
What if the real CycloneFanatic is the friends we made along the way?
As the old man in the thread I just hope the movie industry and our movie houses can survive this.
