So the logo of Zodiac has Shield logo in A and I think Arc reactor in O. So here is my early theory of what the show might be.

I think it will be about Justin Hammer acquiring Stark Tech that was captured by the DODC in NWH. Hammer uses the tech to launch his own superhero team - The Zodiac. Secretly Obv he is using them to serve his nefarious purpose. Meanwhile the Agents of SHIELD will have to get together to investigate the Zodiac. I think the whole Armor Wars draft will be repurposed into this show.

I know the 99.9999% of fanbase wants MCU Wolverine to be introduced in a Wolverine vs Hulk movie. But I have a different idea.

I want MCU Wolverine to debut in a Weapon X movie. Somewhere somehow the Weapon X team (Sabretooth, Logan, Maverick, Mystique) going against the X-Men. It can end with Logan breaking free.

But then, I want a Prestige Anthology TV Show abt Logan. Basically each episode being in a different genre and exploring different phases of Logan's life. The overarching narrative can be Logan trying to figure out his own past. We can have

1. Kitchen Sink Realism + Neo Western episode abt Logan in Coalville

2. War Thriller for his WW days

3. Cyberpunk retro futuristic episode abt his Madripoor days

4. Neo Noir + Retired Badass episode of Logan in Japan

Let's assume that MCU will do a reboot post Secret Wars. How would y'all want Avengers to be re-introduced? For me, I think the re-introduction should be spread out over a saga.

1. Steve Rogers should be frozen and discovered near Savage Land (which is located in Antarctica).

2. Tony Stark should come into the verse and handle the fallout from Stark Industries going under and his armors being stolen (basically Armor Wars). Maybe the Hellfire Club ends up doing all kinds of shady corporate takeovers to acquire Stark Industries and supply the Iron Man armors to everyone for more power. Tony has to get back his company and start tracking down his rogue armors

3. After a few movies of his own, the MCU Wolverine should go on a mission with the Canadian A-Force. They get together to fight against the Hellfire Gala and we see Emma Frost mind controlling a monster. This monster should be the New Hulk. Logan should encounter him. This will finally give us Hulk vs Wolverine on the big screen.

4. Psycho Man should attack the Earth. F4 fight him. Psycho Man is the ruler of Microverse. It's revealed that he found new Hank and Janet on an expedition and manipulated their emotions to make them help him. F4 defeat Psycho Man, freeing Hank and Janet.

5. The new Odin should arrive at New Asgard on Earth and decide to use his All Power to rebuild Asgard. Years later a power hungry D'Ken of Shi Ar attacks Asgard, who retaliate under a young war hungry Thor. His sister Lilandra asks X-Men for their help. X-Men arrive and help smoothen things out. D'Ken gets deposed and Lilandra becomes the queen.

6. A desperate for money Clint Barton should join Tiboldt's Circus where Nightcrawler also used to perform

7. On one mission the New Avengers (Yelena's team) go to Madripoor to track some shady weapons supply. Here they discover that Madripoor is now being run by a mysterious shady Power Broker. Bucky thinks that it's Sharon Carter. Ultimately it's revealed that the Power Broker is the new Natasha Romanoff.

All these new founding Avengers should be discovered over one whole phase in bites and pieces. Later on they should get their own solo movies followed by Avengers Assemble.

I know that the bitching and moaning will gather steam pretty soon about Shawn Levy directing MCU Ghost Rider. I also know that defenders will be ready to call everyone a hater. Hence I want to register myself as one of the "haters" pretty early.

Shawn Levy directing MCU Ghost Rider is like a major red flag. Shawn Levy is like the McDonald's of movie directors. His movies don't have any sauce, any specific visual style. And I consider his biggest succes in DP&W to be down to the acting and spectacle more than the actual substance. And Idt anyone wants that for Ghost Rider. Personally I would have wanted a proper horror director for this movie to lean more into that side. Heck, it could have been MCU's first proper horror movie with the likes of Guillermo Del Toro or Sam Raimi at the helm. And I think Mike Flanagan's work on Clayface makes a strong case in favour of a distinct style (Ik Clayface isn't out yet but it looks so f-ing good).

Disclaimer: 1. No hate to any actor, both Jesse Eisenberg and Nicholas Hoult are amazing actors.

2. I am not a Synderbro. I can accept that his universe had problems. Personally I feel that Snyder was way more obsessed with the equivalent of S3 final version of characters - Superman becoming evil, Flash time travelling, Darkseid, etc - instead of building them organically, but that's a different discussion.

Now onto my main point. I think DCEU Luthor had an amazing potential. I get that Snyder was going young Tech CEO vibe. And in that case, he could have taken inspiration from Zuckerberg in Social Network (Eisenberg played him as well, which makes it worse), Gavin Belson from Silicon Valley (Egomaniac sociopath) and irl shenanigans of Elon Musk. Basically a cold calculated ruthless CEO who pretends to be a normal guy, but takes every criticism as a personal offence. Sorta like Homelander but if Homelander didn't have powers. And with that characterization, this Luthor's hate for Superman would have been even more clear. Obviously this vain mf hates Superman bcz Superman is automatically more powerful and loved than him. But more than Superman, it would have fleshed out his feelings towards all the super powered characters. It's a damn tragedy that Snyder went the Mickey Mouse route with him when both the character and the actor was capable of so much more.

Yesterday I was thinking about the almost impossible scenario of Daniel Day-Lewis appearing in a comic book film, and it raised an interesting question: what role would actually justify him coming out of retirement?

The obvious challenge isn't whether DDL could play the character. His filmography has already demonstrated extraordinary range, and I genuinely think he could convincingly portray almost anyone from the comic medium, whether it's a psychologically fractured character like Typhoid Mary, or even something completely unexpected like Condiment King.

The real challenge is identifying a role that meets several criteria:

1. The role must be a centerpiece, not supporting.: Daniel Day-Lewis isn't the kind of actor you bring back from retirement to play a mentor, government official, or villain-of-the-week. The character would need to be the narrative engine of the entire film.

2. The role must offer thematic depth. Throughout his career, DDL has gravitated toward characters driven by obsession, ideology, ambition, faith, identity, or self-destruction. A purely action-oriented role would feel like a waste of his strengths.

3. The character should be iconic but not overexposed. Part of the appeal would be seeing Day-Lewis interpret a character that still has room for a definitive cinematic version rather than competing directly with performances that have already become culturally untouchable.

4. It should feel like a "one and done" role. A multi-film franchise commitment seems unlikely. The ideal character would allow for a complete artistic statement in a single film.

With those criteria in mind, my two picks are:

Mr. Freeze: Not the camp version, but the tragic scientist version from Batman: The Animated Series. A story centered on grief, obsession, love, and the inability to let go feels perfectly suited to the kind of emotional intensity Day-Lewis excels at. You could build an entire prestige drama around Victor Fries before he even becomes a supervillain.

The Beyonder: Specifically the original cosmic entity concept rather than later retcons. An omnipotent being attempting to understand humanity could give DDL an opportunity to play something genuinely alien, philosophical, and unpredictable. It would also avoid the grounded historical archetypes he has often played throughout his career.

If you had to choose one comic book role that would be worthy of a Daniel Day-Lewis comeback, who would it be and why?

I just found out that the actor Anthony Head (Rupert Manion) passed away. I didn't know that. RIP to a legend. He was an amazing actor. Low-key I really wanted him to play Alfred (Bruce Wayne Batman's Badass British Butler), he projected that aura.

So yesterday my neighbour aunty started scolding me like crazy. For context, my neighbour aunty Anjana is this rich snobby lady. She is your stereotypical aunty who keeps an eye out for every one who comes and goes. She also does these kitty parties, and from what I have heard, she does tremendous ass kissing of our society president. Meanwhile I am just a regular guy. Two years ago I started teaching younger kids in our society and outsider kids as well. I also took fees from the families of those who could afford it (bcz I also need money to sustain). Now sometimes these kids play outside, after the class.

Cut to yesterday when this Anjana Kashyap caught me and started scolding me. She started saying shit like "tujhe kuch pata nhi hai", "do kodi kaa", "yeh blackboard par explain karne wale aur asli shikshak mei bhut fark hota hai" etc. She said that bcz of me, there is no real education in schools and colleges bcz "school Wale bol dete hai ki coaching join kar lo" (even though coaching industry has been going on for so long). AAJ TAK usne khud ne kuch nhi kiya hoga, lekin mujhe daant rhi thi

Scenario: Peter Parker is in legal trouble. He asks Matt Murdock to represent him. Matt knows Peter is Spiderman. Peter is convicted for stealing some classified docs, which he took as Spiderman to find Doc Ock. He was caught with the docs when he came to return it

Netflix Matt: Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury. What is the idea of stealing? It involves taking sth without permission for some self-serving purpose. There is no concept of conspiracies or theories involved in stealing. The only meaningful questions are about the stealing agent, the stolen object and a clear self serving purpose. These questions, and only these questions, determine the severity of the consequences for the theft. Anything else is beyond the purview of objectivity. And so, based on these questions alone, the prosecution has put forward that Mr. Parker was the agent and the classified docs are the object. And this is not contested that Mr. Parker has the docs in his possession. But they have failed to prove what could be the self serving purpose for Mr. Parker to steal these files. And since we are pondering about questions, this gap raises another question about how Mr. Parker got this docs. As proven by the defendants already, Mr. Parker found these documents on the streets and he assumed it as his civic duty to return these files to the Police Station. And so objectively based on these questions, and these questions alone, my client should be acquitted.

Disney Plus Matt: Mr. Parker. ARE YOU OR ARE YOU NOT THE VIGILANTE CALLED SPIDERMAN? You are under the oath. Ladies and Gentlemen, by his own testimony, Mr. Parker is Spiderman and he took those documents to hunt Doc Ock from going on another crime spree. Hence he should be acquitted.

Can someone recommend me good sources for Quant, Reasoning and GA? My only issue with Quant and Reasoning is my speed and I need to fix that, so any sources for that would be helpful.

Disclaimer: I have not yet watched DDBA S2. I am waiting for it all to drop so that I can binge. PLEASE do not give spoiler.

I have seen this discussions a few times abt who should be villain of DDBA S3. Idk what has happened/will happen to Fisk and Bullseye (again pls no spoilers), but I really think MCU needs to move on from them. I don't mean kill them, rather bring in new villains. And personally I want S3 villain to be Typhoid Mary. Ik DDBA has a very serious tone, but ngl a season of Mary just lunatically rage-baiting Matt would be fun. Maybe Mary and Jester together as like Joker and Harley of Hell's Kitchen.
