Welcome to the main discussion thread for the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This pinned post is here to establish some basic guidelines. All of the Media Forum rules
still apply.
- This thread is for talking about the live-action films, TV shows, animated works, and related content that use the Marvel brand, currently owned by Disney.
- While mild digressions are okay, discussion of the comic books should go in this thread
. Extended digressions may be thumped as off-topic.
- Spoilers for new releases should not be discussed without spoiler tagging for at least two weeks. Rather, each title should have a dedicated thread where that sort of conversation is held. We can mention new releases in a general sense, but please be courteous to people who don't want to be spoiled.
If you're posting tagged spoilers, make sure that the film or series is clearly identified outside the spoiler tagging. People need to know what will be spoiled before they choose to read the post.

Actually it was a bit more
"You're alive??"
"I WAS NEVER DEAD! YOU WERE MARRIED TO A SKRULL PRETENDING TO BE ME??"
"They copy down to the DNA! HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO NOTICE!"
My various fanfics.I guessed there would be more context, but it's just funnier presented my way.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectPeter Parker might not be white.
I'm putting down hundred dollars that he's white anyways.

Hmm...Ultron's voice is kind of weird, I'm going to be honest. I hope this is just before they added the proper vocal filters. And I thought he'd be a little more...serious?
Oh God! Natural light!Eh, I'll watch the movie. Sometimes consistency issue can crop up, and Ultron seems to have had that issue for a while.
Computer voice programs have been good for a a while though, so maybe his is just really good.

Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectI admit, I am kinda disappointed that Ultron is just...yet...another...goddamn snarky villain.
My various fanfics.Not that many Marvel villains have done the snark thing.
I'm thinking about the villains and I'm honestly drawing a blank thinking of one that was snarky.

Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectAmongst Marvel, Loki, Justin Hammer and Aldritch Killian are the ones I can think of.
"All you Fascists bound to lose."Justin Hammer was snarky? I thought he was just a doofus.
I wish I could remember Killian's lines but I found him bland.
It makes a lot of sense that Loki and Ultron are snarky though.
The first is the god of mischief and the other is based on Tony Stark's personality.
I wouldn't call Vanko snarky. He may have had a snarky like or two but I wouldn't call him snarky.

Stane, Vanko, Hammer, Loki, Red Skull, Killian, Malekith, Pierce/Bucky, Thanos/Ronan/Nebula/Korath, Fisk now.
I'd say a few of those are snarky in their own way, but certainly not in the definitive way Ultron appears. My instinct makes me take him less seriously, but honestly if that gives him more personality than most of the guys listed above...I'm okay with this. I would like a more robot voice though.
"A king has no friends. Only subjects and enemies."Well a lot of villains use sarcasm. It's a common dialogue tool after all, I just listed the ones that use snark constantly.
"All you Fascists bound to lose."![]()
T Here;s a huge difference between having a snarky line and actually being a snarky character.
Yeah so really people who don't just have snarky lines but are actually snarky there's Loki, Justin, Killian and Ultron.

Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.I am kind of getting tired of it. He is a long established character. They can cast whoever they want in the role, and if it is someone white than that's what the character was all along. So, get a grip, wait for the announcement. If you get what you want, celebrate, if not it's not the end of the world.

"Aw man, you're alive? DIVORCE!"
