MONOPOLY
The story follows a comedic, lovable loser who lives in Manhattan and works at a real estate company and he’s not very good at his job but he’s great at playing Monopoly. And the world record for playing is 70 straight days – over 1,600 hours – and he wanted to try to convince his friends to help him break that world record. They think he is crazy. They kid him about this girl and they're playing the game and there’s this big fight. And he’s holding a Chance card and after they’ve left he says, ‘Damn, I wanted to use that Chance card,’ and he throws it down. He falls asleep and then he wakes up in the morning and he’s holding the Chance card, and he thinks, ‘That’s odd.’ He’s all groggy and he goes down to buy some coffee and he reaches into his pocket and all he has is Monopoly money. All this Monopoly money pours out. He’s confused and embarrassed and the girl reaches across the counter and says, ‘That’s OK.’ And she gives him change in Monopoly money. He walks outside and he’s in this very vibrant place, Monopoly City, and he’s just come out of a Chance Shop. As it goes on, he takes on the evil Parker Brothers in the game of Monopoly. He has to defeat them. It tries to incorporate all the iconic imageries -- a sports car pulls up, there's someone on a horse, someone pushing a wheelbarrow -- and rich Uncle Pennybags, you're going to see him as the maître d' at the restaurant and he's the buggy driver and the local eccentric and the doorman at the opera. There’s all these sight gags.

I'm pretty sure Civil War is going to be different than the comics storyline as had already been said by Marvel. It wouldn't exactly work in the MCU where there's barely any superheroes so far and people know most of their identities.
ReplyDeleteand report to SHIELD is confusing, i mean SHIELD is a little busy getting ready to fight the Inhumans and they're also still in the shadows
ReplyDeleteIndeed its much more likely to be part of the fall out of Age of Ultron especially Tony's involvement in that and who is accountable for the actions of the Avengers (and to some extent SHIELD)
ReplyDeleteAnd what to do with Bucky Barnes when Cap finds him, Tony may insist on punishment/imprisonment because Bucky killed his parents. Its going to be a variety of issues which causes them to fight.
Civil war is going to hit me in the feels! ðŸ˜
ReplyDeleteThis also implies that SHIELD would be a government entity again by the time that film comes out which would be a really big spoiler. Marvel keeps everything close to the vest, so I don't buy it. Also I don't see Coulson's SHIELD functioning in that way which means he would not be in charge and again this is not something that they would give out this early on. This universe is too different for things to play out the way they did in the comic books.
ReplyDeleteHahahahaah! Monopoly sounds so stupid that if could even work!
ReplyDeleteXmen Apocalypse should be awesome! Can't wait for it to happen. Would like the prediction of Kat Graham playing Storm come true.
Suicide Squad can't come soon enough.
bucky killed Tony's parents? and what do you mean to an extent the actions of SHIELD?
ReplyDeleteand SHIELD is becoming something different, and i don't think Coulson would be relived of his job as Director
ReplyDeleteNot without a coup d'état, which could happen. I feel like the governments are going to create their own new organizationthat won't be as open-minded or understanding Coulson's organization.
ReplyDeleteThe Ring 3 as in The Ring the one with treh video that kills you?... why a third movie D:
ReplyDeleteI like that Sinopsis for Monopoly sounds funny and crazy tbh
Yeah its revealed in The Winter Soldier, Natasha and Steve are in the old SSR base and come across creepy computer Zola. I can't remember the quote but Zola implies Hydra and the Winter Soldier were responsible for many acts and then it flashes to a newspaper article about Howard and Maria's Starks car 'accident' implying it was no accident and the Winter Solider was responsible.
ReplyDeleteAs far as we know Tony doesn't know this yet...
As for SHIELD, well they are an organisation that answers to no one but do many things some people may consider illegal, already people like Talbot are wary about their intentions and the general public mistrusts them after the Hydra reveal. So I wouldn't be surprised if they get dragged into the whole Civil War mess, like what gives them the right to do what they do?
Add in the hearing Natasha attends at the end of the Winter Soldier and its clear the Government and the World Council are not happy with superheroes and secret agencies....
If the "Superhero Registration Act" requires that all Superheroes report to/register at SHIELD, that suggests a re-constituted/legalized SHIELD, not the current "band of heroes" who are trying to rebuild SHIELD. More than likely, a major tie-in via Agents of SHIELD.
ReplyDeletegeez a coup d'etat that's dark, so you're thinking the government will create a Checkmate situation from DC Comics
ReplyDeletewow you're right i completely forgot about Zola showing Steve and Natasha that clipping and yeah the Government are basically being D words even with the results SHIELD and the Superheroes get, so maybe you're right
ReplyDeleteyou think SHIELD will be rebuilt when they'll too be busy dealing with emergence of the Inhumans? and from what i've heard since the theories about these guys, they're not exactly a small problem
ReplyDeleteI'm most excited about Civil War and still so disappointed Tom Hardy isn't going to be in Suicide Squad. I may wait for the DVD for that one. I do like Jai Courtney though.
ReplyDeleteJake Gyllenhaal is in The Suicide Squad.
ReplyDeleteI love the Civil War comics but they won't work in the MCU. There aren't many superheroes and everybody knows who The Avengers are. The only one who probably has a "secret identity" is Hulk. This plot is going to feel incredible forced.
ReplyDeleteI love both Tom and Jake so I'm happy with this replacement.
ReplyDeleteBut I'm not sure that is the actual plot of the movie and just a synopsis taken from how the event plays out in the comics. I think the MCU will be a lot different. Though I guess if needed they could rebuild SHIELD and make it a big thing in the MCU again..
ReplyDeleteSony's Spider-Man related films....lol.
ReplyDeleteHell no to Joker being part of the Suicide Squad- Amanda must be out of her freaking mind. I preferred having him like in the Assault on Arkham movie, he's there but not part of the team. Harley can obviously be on the team, but not the Joker, nobody in their right mind would trust him on the team, death switch in brain or not, hell he might think it would be hilarious to just blow everyone up with him somehow.
ReplyDeleteHoly shit! That is a lotttt of information. My brain just went into overload. A lot of these I'm looking forward to, and a lot of them I'm not!! My brain needs to process, but I just have to say one thing.....
ReplyDeleteMonopoly?? Lmaoooooo omg!!!! Half way reading it I burst out laughing, thinking, Why do I feel Will Farrell would make a cameo in this movie HaHahahahaha.
