Captain America: Civil War

Age of Ultron was pretty drab but the first Avengers has a lot of strong colour in it rather than just drowning everything in a blue filter.

It's still pretty flat looking sometimes, probably a side-effect of heavy green-screen work.

I reckon they've being doing it to make the film's have more of a Dark Knight 'seriousness to 'em.

The Awesome Gift Disney Gave Stan Lee For His 75th Anniversary At Marvel.

It's to small to see, ffs.

Why Do Marvel's Movies Look Kind of Ugly?

It's the money colour grading. The real question is why have they chosen to do this? I've found that you can improve things greatly by just increasing the contrast and saturation on the telly.

Is it to do with 3D? Like having to make the 2D version look as drab and shitty as it does through 3D glasses.

Film review: bits with jokes were good (I liked Spider--man and his sexy aunt*). Bits without jokes were dreary (like Homeland at its "with added teen angst" worst). Iron Man makes no sense characterwise and may as well have had a "compassion" switch on the back of his suit.

*EDIT: and ant.

Angela Bassett Boards Marvel's "Black Panther".

That's good news. Bassett was terrific as Tina Turner in What's Love Got to Do with It?

It's just an aesthetic choice, I think. As someone suggested upthread, it's probably to ground the films a bit. But it also probably makes them cheaper to film and easier to match up, visually, with the other films.

I watched Xmen Apocalypse again on DVD a few days ago, and regardless fo what you think of that film's script/story, on a visual level it's light years ahead of every Marvel movie ever made. Putting aside the excellent direction, every scene is lit differently, or designed around a different colour, and every colour pops, by framing it against other, contrasting colours. I said it at the time, but visually, X-Men Apocalypse is the best looking action film since Mad Max: Fury Road. It's absolutely gorgeous at times.

FIRST OFFICIAL Trailer for Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Spider-Man: Homecoming International Trailer #1.

Actually might be entertaining. Nice to see Bruce Wayne meet Spidey and Iron Man (in way).

[SavageHedgehog]

Finally the Spider-Man film we've all been waiting for; one where he spends the whole film wanting to join a team, talks like a sitcom character, faces an underdeveloped villain and is overshadowed by a more successful on screen character!

Just kidding. Well, not really, but it still looks alright.

Action...Avengers: Infinity War.

Amazing to think that Marvel have spent a decade building up to this.

Could Marvel Be Moving Ahead With A Submariner Movie?

Submariner used to freak me out as a kid.
