Personally I'd be;

WandaVision
Loki
Shang-Chi
Spider-Man: No Way Home
Hawkeye
Moon Knight
Black Widow
Eternals
Falcon and the Winter Soldier
What If...

I think they havent really found their stride again yet, but none of it has been bad. Falcon and What-if have had some hair bad moments at times. And Wanda vision/ Loki had large moments of greatness, even if nothing close to infinity war at its peak

I can't imagine anyone but males aged 30-50 being into this show. There's no way multiple parts of this show would be appropriate for young kids. The show is pretty violent and rated 14 mature.

Avatar 2 looks decent. Doesn't excite me too much, they didn't show much just a bunch of beautiful shots. But I learned to never doubt Cameron.

May god have mercy on James Cameron’s soul if he uses Papyrus again.

Avatar is easily a top 5 non Marvel PG rated tentpole movie of the last 20 years.

All 3 new JP movies make it look like Citizen Kane meets T2.

I liked Avatar. It's a beautiful movie. Even if the plot line was directly ripped off from Ferngully: The last rainforest . If only there was a way to bring in Robin Williams to reprise his role as the bat.

I'll watch this one too. It's eye candy. And I'm a sucker for eye candy.

Speaking of Ferngully, I saw this recently and it's just Tim Curry being incredible:

Ferngully? You heathens! It's a beat for beat rip off of Dances With Wolves, that came out two years before Ferngully. *flips over dining room table*

Ok, I don't laugh at SNL often, but that was hilarious.

Wait, people think that Dances with Wolves and/or Fergully are original? Lol


Oh yeah and The Lion King is wholly original too!

The preview didn’t do anything for me. When the first one came out it was something that you had never seen before it was an amazing step forward in special affects. It made people buy 3D TVs.

The preview for this one for this one (I watched in IMAX 3D) was just it’s pretty nice but not revolutionary. I’ll still go see it in theatres but I’m certain it excited about it.

The Avatar teaser was really stunning in IMAX.

People scoff at a sequel 12 years later to a rather ordinary story but Cameron might actually get the last laugh here.

Well that actually looks really great.

Hopefully the music in the trailer is an idea of what we'll see in the movie.

If a movie uses Algerian one day, I will flip out. That's my most cliched font that I see businesses making their $5000 lightbox signs in all over the place.
