I think that too, but the possibility of being surprised is still out there.I'm going to assume this is a tease that Luke Cage will premiere in November.

I think we can all agree there is one way to improve the MCU
lol I'm joking relax. BUT LEGO Avengers is a lot more fun than I thought. I was expecting a dumbed down LEGO Marvel. Instead I got a pretty fun standalone love note to the MCU. Personally I wish it was more phase 1 BUT I don't hate what's here and hearing RDJ's voice coming from Lego (while faded) is cool!

It hasn't been released yet. I'm presuming the Feb 3 release date was pushed back some to come out closer to Civil War's theatrical release (though Feb 3 is still listed as release date on Marvel's site, but they often don't update to accurately reflect changed release dates). We'll see.

Was not sure if it was one of those 1 day free comics

I'm up to this big of Lego Avengers game and They fixed my complaint with quicksilver. He slows down (even eats chicken) and seems to be more like DOFP Quilcksilver I like it. As when ever I see him in comics (before they changed him recently) he was always an arrogant little **** that's why he's awesome.

I can't see them holding it off too long though, being that the Captain America: Civil War Prelude collection comes out April 12, and includes the Infinite comic in it, so they'll definitely want to release it prior to the collection.

Yeah, it'll probably release sometime later this month or in March. We'll see.

I'll have to wait on the TPB to come out so I can accurately place the events by breaking up by page numbers. Flashbacks are all set during and just after ending of Winter Soldier, and present day events occur immediately before Civil War.

They really need an on-going MCU comic. Just something like Fury's Big Week where it follows characters between films.

So it seems that Michele Gonzalez has been cast in the new Spider-Man film. At least a hispanic girl has been cast as a character named Michele. I'm assuming she's Michele Gonzalez.
The Holywood Reporter is saying that Sony is going to try to be as ethnically diverse as they can be wth this film, which is great. I wonder why they chose to use Michele Gonzalez rather than just making Betty Brant or Liz Allen a different ethnicity, though. They did a bit of that in the Spectacular Spider-Man cartoon and it worked well. Michele Gonzalez just seems like an odd choice. She's an obscure, and rather unlikable character.

Same reason Scoot McNairy played Jackson Norriss. It's a character only die hard fans would know of or care about. It's neat.

Ok, now I really hate the ads. It made the quote from the last post super thin. It couldn't fit more than two words (mostly one due to size of word) per line.

I would argue that it's cool for a cameo/easter egg, but it's weird for a main character. But whatever, I'm sure it will be fine.

It's only weird because we're used to always the same 2-3 characters used as main in the movies and now it's being changed up.

Liz Allen has never been in a Spider-Man movie, Betty Brant has only had small parts. But they're big parts of Spider-Man's early days. Michele Gonzales was Peter's room mate for a while who hated Peter but slept with him one time (and probably with Chameleon disguised as Peter another time.) I always found her an unlikable character who was used awkwardly by the writers. I'm sure she'll be fine in the movie, but she seems like a strange pick to me when there are, in my opinion, better, less obscure chatacters who haven't been used yet.

Right, but what I said still holds true, regardless of who you think would be a better choice or not.

Well, I disagree (and it's alright for us to disagree). It's not just weird because I'm not used to it, Michele Gonzales is an objectively weird choice. Like if they chose to use Big Wheel as the main villain, that would be an odd choice. Some characters don't warrant being used in a movie because they aren't important or interesting characters. But, as I've said, I'm sure they will use her well and it will be fine.

Wrong.
