Yes, The Avengers: Infinity War is going to be massive and stuffed with superheroes! The proof, Scarlett Johansson has teaser their number and a scene apparently spectacular.
And yes, we come back to ask ourselves this good old question that has been haunting us for several months: how many superheroes will there really be in The Avengers: Infinity War ? Because in fact, as you remember, not long ago, there was a rather crazy rumor that nearly 60 heroes of all kinds would come together to confront Thanos and put an end to his ambitions. And good, 60, that’s a lot, even if the universe Marvel literally overflows characters that have not yet been exploited. And it’s not counting the villains who will join Thanos in The Avengers: Infinity War . Since there has not been much more detailed information on this subject, We were still wondering if the line-up of the superheroes would be truly as impressive as that. And that’s where Scarlett Johansson, aka Black Widow, comes on stage. For she has just made a little revelation that should delight more than one!
The actress was unable to avoid questions about The Avengers: Infinity War during an appearance on the set of the talk show The Late Show with Stephen Colbert . After hesitating a few moments, she still ended up teaser that, yes, there would be about sixty superheroes on screen ! Yes, the meltynauts, the Russo brothers apparently did not lie to us. But better still, Scarlett Johansson has evoked a massive scene in which several dozen heroes would be gathered. She said: ” I believe that in a particular scene, we are something like 32, we are a lot .” Ah, she can say it! As for the thirty missing, they will probably appear at the turn of one or two scenes, History to let them know that they exist and that they are ready to spin a hand. All you need to know is who will be all these superheroes. And for that, it will be necessary to redo all the Marvel, history to count those that have already been introduced, and take into account those to come, as for example Black Panther since Shuri, the sister of T’Challa could also be of the part In The Avengers: Infinity War ! What superheroes would you like to see in the movie? T’Challa’s sister could also be part of The Avengers: Infinity War ! What superheroes would you like to see in the movie? T’Challa’s sister could also be part of The Avengers: Infinity War ! What superheroes would you like to see in the movie?

Will an emblematic character of the Marvel make his appearance in The Avengers Infinity War? This is what Stan Lee seems to have escaped in an interview …
All fans of comics can only know Stan Lee. The famous artist behind the birth (and co-birth) of many superheroes emblematic of American culture. The author appears regularly in the films of the Marvel franchise and the next meeting of the Avengers, The Avengers Infinity War (of which a huge catastrophe scene was shot in Atlanta) should not escape this rule. In an interview about this, the man let a little confidence escape. The latter has teased that an emblematic character of Marvel , never before seen on big screen, should make its appearance in this episode!
But then who could it be? On the web, fans are already wondering. Many think of Captain Marvel , whose role is officially endorsed by Brie Larson (who described the heroine as “believing in truth & justice”) . But with Marvel, fans are never immune to a surprise! Other names are evoked like Miss Hulk, Hulk Rouge or Namor … In short, it will be necessary to wait until the exit of the Infinity War to discover it. But one thing is certain: the temperature rises on the internet among the aficionados of comics. It must be said that this next blockbuster promises a lot to fans of the genre … And you, what do you think?

When Hollywood chooses white actors for “color” characters, whitewashing without pressure

sivertime — Fri, 12 May 2017 15:57:10 +0000

It starts to squeal more and more teeth on the other side of the Atlantic and in the world …
Concretely, whitewashing is a practice of entrusting roles of “color” characters (fictional or real) to white actors, in the mercantile idea that the public will be more sensitive to them. It is enough to stir up snobbish communities, and in general all those who are attached to a fairer representation of minorities in the cinema . One of the latest examples: the film “Ghost in the Shell” , whose main role was spun to Scarlett Johansson while the heroine is … Japanese. In protest, actress Michele Selene (seen in “13 reasons why” ) posted on February 27th this photo on Instagram,
But Scarlett, Emma, Tilda and Matt are far from being the only ones …
Tony Mendez / Ben Affleck (Argo)
His story served as a plot for the film “Argo” , which tells how he saved six American diplomats during the hostage crisis in Iran in 1979. Tony Mendez is a CIA agent of Mexican origin and ‘Is however Ben Affleck (director of the film) who slipped into his costume as a hero of the nation.
Moses / Christian Bale and Ramses / Joel Edgerton (Exodus: Gods and Kings)
Even with the maxi-dose of eyeliner and terracotta, the subterfuge did not deceive anyone. No, Christian Bale and Joel Edgerton do not have heads to go incognito in Egypt . Ridley Scott has played fairly well in Variety: “I can not make a film of this budget with a main actor named Mohammed . ”
Seth / Gerard Butler and Horus / Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Gods of Egypt) but also Noah / Russell Crowe (Noah)
See the paragraph above.
Prince Dastan / Jake Gyllenhaal (Prince of Persia)
What? Did you seriously imagine that Hollywood was going to shoot the main role of this film adaptation to an Arab? (Or a Persian, it’s the same for them anyway).
Khan Noonien Singh / Benedict Cumberbatch (Star Trek Into Darkness)
In “Space Speed” , the episode of the series that inspired “Into Darkness” , and which introduced Khan’s character for the first time, the latter is a Sikh, an ethnic group that lives to the north of the India . In other words, not much to do with the very British Benedict Cumberbatch, who took over the role in 2013 in JJ Abrams’ film.
Katniss Everdeen / Jennifer Lawrence (Hunger Games)
In the literary work of Suzanne Colins, Katniss Everdeen is described as a dark-skinned girl with dull skin, like most of the inhabitants of District 12 . A detail not embarrassed the producers of the film who only auditioned “white” actresses .
Sangoku / Justin Chatwin (Dragon Ball Evolution)
To the horror of the movie “Dragon Ball Evolution” , of which the writer has personally apologized , the producers added a dose of “whitewashing” which is very badly passed to the fans . We want Goku and his friends not to stick too much to the average Japanese, but from there to inflict the little American student (and his hat Vivelle Dop), there is a margin …
Ra’s al Ghul / Liam Neeson (Batman Begins)
Ra’s al Ghul is a fierce enemy of Batman. He is a native of North Africa . In other words, a distant Ballymena region in Northern Ireland, where Liam Neeson was born, the actor who camped the super-villain in “Batman Begins” and then “The Dark Night Rises” .
Brandi Boski / Mena Suvari (Stuck)
One of the strangest choices in the list. The film “Stuck” tells the story of Brandi Bolski, a young nurse who unintentionally overturned a homeless person, who came into his windshield. Instead of warning, Brandi took the body to her home in her garage. It turns out that this is a true story, inspired by the unhappy destiny of Chante Jawal Mallard, an African-American . But the director Stuart Gordon preferred to take a “white” actress , Mena Suvari, to interpret the role. Which gives a somewhat weird situation, where the lady (who has made African tresses for the occasion) hangs only with her group of friends Afro. The same friends, Will help conceal the body. It was a good thing some Blacks slipped somewhere.
The Elder / Tilda Swinton (Doctor Strange)
If we are on the side of the readers of comics, the film “Doctor Strange” offered a double betrayal regarding the person of the Ancient: not only it is a guy, but besides that, it is Tibetan . Nothing to see then with Tilda Swinton …
Eugene Simonet / Kevin Spacey (A Better World)
In the novel “Pay it Forward” on which the film “A Better World” is based , the hero is an African-American who is called Reuben St. Clair . A background totally ignored by the director, who for this “positive” character preferred to take a white man in the person of Kevin Spacey, to rename him Eugene Simonet.
Irene / Carey Mulligan (Drive)
We can not take it off, Carey Mulligan is just great in “Drive” . Only a little worry, in the original book, Irene is not a small Caucasian blonde, but a young Latina . Director Nicolas Winding Refn said he was looking for this type of actress at Mulligan, a mix of innocence and vulnerability, “that we want to protect . ” Understood, a Latina does not need to be protected … He added that it was easier to establish a romance between two characters having the same background. Eva Mendes, in partnership with Ryan Gosling in real life, will be happy to learn it.
All the casting of the “Last Master of Air”
Even if one remains in the genre fantasy, the universe of the literary saga “Avatar: The Last Airbender” is directly imbued with Asian culture , whether it is in the martial arts, mythology, costumes … Or , The film of Night Shyamalan has no Asian actor among the main roles, which has earned him many critics. Worse, the role of great villain was entrusted to the swarthy Dev Patel …
All the cast of “Las Vegas 21”
Ben Campbell is a small genius from MIT, who along with other brilliant mathematics students, has scammed several casinos from Vegas to blackjack. A true story told in the film “Las Vegas 21”, which nevertheless obscures the fact that the majority of the protagonists, including Ben Campbell, are of Asian origin . Feeling the wind of controversy happen, the director has hastily incorporated a couple of asiat ‘to the cast. Far from being enough to calm the cries to “whitewashing” …

Thor Ragnarok: Kevin Feige explains the origin of the post-generic scenes

sivertime — Thu, 11 May 2017 15:44:41 +0000

The post-generic scenes are now the trademark of the Marvel house, but do you know where they originated? Kevin Feige tells us everything!
Any good fan of the Marvel movies knows that it is necessary to wait until the end of the credits before leaving the cinema, because one or more additional scenes await it. This is an old rule as the beginning of the MCU, in 2008, with the first Iron Man . But do you know where they came from? Well, it’s actually Kevin Feige , the president of Marvel Studios, who insisted on including them. In an interview with Slashfilm , the filmmaker explained that in his youth, as a “real geek of cinema” , he never wanted the film to end. “No matter whether the film is good or bad, I did not want the experience to stop there. So when I started making movies myself, I thought it would be fun to continue them after the end , “he said. And to explain in particular the first post-generic scene at the end of Iron Man: “We did not want to put Nick Fury in the film because it was thought that it would attract too much attention. So we thought we could put it at the very end of the credits, to reward people, like me child, for staying. ”
In reality, the post-generic scenes were not invented by the Marvel studios and have existed for a long time. The first date dates from 1903! Yes Yes ! At the end of The Great Train Robbery , one could see the main character coming back from the dead and pointing his gun at the audience. In the 1970s and 1980s, post-generic scenes became a major trend in theaters, with Like the Muppet and even Airplane! . But it is really the Marvel studios that have institutionalized them and they have become masters in the matter. The proof, in The Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, there were nearly five post-generic scenes !

The Avengers Infinity War: The Timeline of the Film Unveiled

sivertime — Tue, 25 Apr 2017 14:48:58 +0000

When will the events of The Avengers 3: Infinity War take place? Kevin Feige, President of Marvel Studios, tells us everything!
In The Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, which will contain 5 post-generic scenes , it is an adorable Baby Groot that we will find, confirming that the sequence takes place thus only a few months after the end of the first film. But knowing that in The Avengers 3: Infinity War , Vin Diesel has teased a fight between Groot and Hulk – a misunderstanding you are reassured – one wonders when the events of The Avengers 3: Infinity War will take place . Yes, because one imagines a young Groot against a huge Hulk. Well, today we know, thanks to Kevin Feige , the President of Marvel Studios. And so it is four years after the end of the Guardians of the Flight Galaxy. 2 that Thanos will seize the Stones and the Glove of the Infinite to destroy the universe as we know it! In reality, the Russo brothers respect the release year of The Avengers 3: Infinity War , namely the year 2018, because if you remember, The Guardians of the Galaxy came out in 2014. If the second film takes place Only a few months after, it makes sense that The Avengers 3: Infinity War takes place four years later.
In reality, if The Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 takes place only a few months after the events of the first film, it is because James Gunn wanted to keep the history of the Guardians relatively fresh, so that they take the time to know each other. This means that in The Avengers 3: Infinity War , Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket and Groot will have lived many things since then and will therefore surely be slightly different than those we will find in The Guardians of the Flight Galaxy. 2 . “They will have evolved slightly, in a recognizable way. But they will still be the Guardians and will take care of the storm they have to deal with, ” added Kevin Feige.
