Marvel Universe stuff

Superman could destroy the Earth any time he wanted.

Black bolts powers are not sound related really. They are basically atom/molecule manipulation, set to disintegrate all the time. He can't turn it off. City destroying is the norm. Hulk killing, planet destroying happens, but is atypical.

Yeah he can focus the particles in other ways, but his voice is definitely his most powerful weapon. He fought Thor and Hulk and barely came out on top, but on paper he should destroy anyone in the DC and Marvel universes.

PS i hope they dont do the inhumans as i find them really boring and kinda dumb.

Well the guardians were just as you described, and they manage to make that work. So who knows

Multiple times more than usual. Especially as we seem to be talking about an origin story which are usually much simpler.

Nah. He doesn't even have superspeed. Any speedster, including WW and Superman could take him out before he could even think of it. Then people that could take the hit. Again, using those 2 examples. WW and Superman have both survived face tanking nukes.

I'm thinking Peter Parker is bitten by a radioactive spider vs all this hidden society terragen mists weird monarchy alien designed shit.

Black Bolt can travel much faster than the speed of sound.

The Inhumans started out in the same place that the Xmen and the Doom Patrol did, but the Xmen got flashy as fuck powers and characterizations, the Doom Patrol went completely mental and disturbing, and the Inhumans were sidetracked by their most famous members being a guy with a terrible outfit who whispers to level city blocks and a chick whose hair can be used as stretchy powers. There's no reason that the Inhumans couldn't have the same range of abilities as any other mutant/metagene super group with the added perk of having a secluded nation they call home.

Having the Inhuman DNA spread throughout the normal population and then expose people to the terrigan mists gives you Mutants without touching the Xmen IP, and if properly written Black Bolt can be a supreme badass taking on both the pseudo Xavier and Magneto roles in one person. (Respected leader with the ability to cause extreme devastation if you fuck with 'his people')

When I was a youngling, I really liked that bishop/cable/gambit apocalypse thing on the x-men cartoon. As a tweenager, I believe AoA came out, and that story was cool, too. I'm wondering if they'll use any of those story lines or do something more straight up? Anyone have super secret infos?

Well Apocalypse is the bad guy of the next X-men movie.

And Blink was in the last X men movie. Those movies are ass tho.. I'm sure Singer will even make Apocalypse a boring movie.

Yeah the newest xmen is finally out on the internets and it was pretty lame. Quicksilver had a pretty cool scene but other than that it was a movie of people touching their head and pointing at things. James McAvoy basically only actor that seemed to put in any effort too.

My vote would be for Aidan Gillen as Dr. Strange.

Disney is pretty stupid to hire Joaquin Phoenix for a franchise spot. That dude is a flake.

Guess you could say the same thing about Robert, but he was just an addict. Phoenix is a fucking nut bag.

We did learn though through reports towards the end of the event that multiple Academy Award nominee Joaquin Phoenix was in talks with Marvel Studios for the lead role in Doctor Strange and heard nothing since.

Have to agree with Column, hiring Joaquin Phoenix for a recurring role is stupid as shit. The guy is going to up and decide he doesn't want to do it anymore one day out of the blue. Or he will make ridiculous demands and hold up production. He's so unreliable for that spot, and although he would make a good Dr. Strange, Benedict Cumberbatch or Jack Huston would be just as good.
