Fortunately it’s December so there’s a LOTR rewatch to be done.
And one of the few nice things as you get old is you’ve forgotten enough about the plots of your favorite TV shows that they are a good rewatch.
JumpingCoconutMonkey2025-12-12 19:11
I can get upset at the needless changes again? Count me in! /s (but sort of serious too)
igby12025-12-12 20:00
Needless changes to LOTR?
JumpingCoconutMonkey2025-12-12 20:04
Yes
theknyte2025-12-12 20:40
Still upset about the Tom Bombadil erasure?
JumpingCoconutMonkey2025-12-12 21:07
Mostly the changes to Aragorn and the expanded Arwen role. It's not that much of a detrimental change to me and is kinda fun to point out the differences.
igby12025-12-13 00:07
Very few films are as beloved as the LOTR trilogy.
But you can’t please everyone.
JumpingCoconutMonkey2025-12-13 00:12
I can be pleased by them and acknowledge where they strayed, sometimes needlessly, from the original texts.

Harry Potter for me, tho im trying to pace myself. already on goblet of fire and if i don't have anything to do on christmas or new years eve, i like to watch them too

That'll be January for me. One of the first few weekends of the new year are always dedicated to a full extended edition rewatch.
greenefiend2025-12-12 19:05
Same here. It becomes a chore at times
Nonadventures2025-12-12 19:39
Man’s talking about watching movies with Jennifer Connelly like it’s a damn chore.

Yeah but we're not doing that beside Jennifer Connelly :(

Yea but when he said “Jennifer and I” he was just flexing. We get it you bagged Jennifer Connelly 😂😂
ty_fighter842025-12-12 19:57
That's why I took that part of the quote off.
First half is most unrelatable, second half is most relatable.

TIL Bettany is married to Jennifer Connelly.
AaronRodgersMustache2025-12-13 01:27
Funny story about it too. I think he was in Europe or elsewhere as he tells it, he learned she was recently single and immediately went back to court her or something. I think they knew each other prior.
He was like, someone like her isn’t on the market long or something.
Agitated_Ad75762025-12-13 15:04
PB is married to Elizabeth Olson in the MCU and Jennifer Connelly in real life.
Michael Douglas is married to Michelle Pfeiffer in the MCU and Catherine Zeta Jones in real life.
What are we doing with our lives?
omnicious2025-12-12 23:31
Bro just humble bragging he's with Jennifer Connelly.
bigbrainnowisdom2025-12-13 09:06
In every interview dude keep reminding us that he married jennifer conelly.
(I mean.. i would too if i were him)
Kwilly4622025-12-12 17:40
I don't think Paul Bettany would've ever imagined he'd still be playing this character, all the way from 2008.
BatmanForever232025-12-12 17:41
Vision Quest is also next year - could he not just be referring to that in a rather roundabout way, by mentioning Avengers duties instead of Marvel duties? They're synonymous to many.
pennygirl1082025-12-12 17:44
He’s known to play coy too. Like when he built up playing off a really amazing actor in the wandavision finale, but really just meant himself.
BatmanForever232025-12-12 17:45
Yeah, I don't think he's going to be in Secret Wars - Vision Quest and Bettany having fun in an interview seems more likely imo.
Kingpin12322025-12-12 17:55
It’s hard to think he won’t be in Secret Wars now haha.
FerrusManlyManus2025-12-12 17:49
lol I forgot about that, that was the best trolling ever on his part.
LRedditor152025-12-12 18:10
There was some leaked concept art (which apparently might be fake according to the Russos but obviously they aren’t going to confirm it’s real) of Vision in Secret Wars.
_ILP_2025-12-12 17:42
He can do whatever he wants whenever he wants, career wise. He already won at life - he’s got Jennifer Connelly at home, that robotic bastard.
high_everyone2025-12-12 17:47
I wonder if he has the coin operated pony too. I would admire him more if he did.
_ILP_2025-12-12 17:51
lol I wonder if he ever had her re-enact it
ZeroCodingXP2025-12-12 18:57
My homie in Christ, he is the operated pony.
high_everyone2025-12-12 18:58
Maybe he likes to watch.
MikeAWBD2025-12-12 21:18
Then I would like to apply for the role of mechanical pony
high_everyone2025-12-12 21:21
Fine then, I'm applying for the role of her jeans.

They have two children together and a stepchild. They live in NYC. He's a dual citizen. He's talented and stars in the biggest franchise in the world. He's definitely going for that all-time life high score.

See his texts with Johnny Depp. And yes, Johnny was upheld an abuser in UK courts.

If not then he’s probably throwing dollar bills on the ground in a dark room lit by disco lights.

That vision is dead. This is not the same character. It’s like when Groot died in Gotg. Sure he regenerated, but he doesn’t carry those life experiences anymore. He’s something new. More akin to a son.
TedClaxton942025-12-12 18:37
Oh come on now. It’s vision. Saying “erm actually that’s a replica etc etc” is just a hand waiving excuse to have the character back.
OnlinePosterPerson2025-12-12 19:11
Not at all. This isn’t kraven the hunter or carnage who is technically a clone even though that is never acknowledged and is functionally a resurrection. This is a brand new entity with meaningful differences. He doesn’t have the emotional capacity granted to him by the mind stone. He doesn’t have the lived experiences that we attached to and which created his personality.
You wouldn’t say Frankenstein’s monster is the same person as his composite body parts he inhabited. Sure it’s their body but their mind is not the monster’s mind.

It’s not just him though is it? Gamora, Loki too. If I watch a character die now then it has no weight because it’s not final
SharpshootinTearaway2025-12-12 19:14
Go complain about Gamora and Loki in the replies of posts that talk about Gamora and Loki, then. Not posts about the *one* character whose return to life makes perfect sense because he was never really alive in the first place and *of course* they're going to rebuild the damn robot.
ontheflooragainagain2025-12-12 18:08
Awesome! Another returning fan-favorite character that I can’t wait to miss out on when I don’t go see Avengers: Secret Wars!

SpellSuspicious23632025-12-12 18:55
If speed appear in this show and Wiccan too,this could mean that both BND and VQ will serve as the same purpose ant man and the wasp and captain marvel do with EG:a build-up tocertain characters like hulk and spider man,and young avengers and peter quill assembling to the film,if the concept art of peter assembling the champions and meeting vision in the earth is fullfiled,tihs is how it will connect.
TheDaveWSC2025-12-12 19:37
Nothing can ever be a surprise, huh?
eagc72025-12-12 21:19
I mean is Vision returning in another Avengers movie really something that needs to be kept under wraps? (Unless he was never brought back after WandaVision or VisionQuest ends with him dying again)
FPSGamer482025-12-12 20:14
I would hope so. Vision is an Avenger through and through, and I hope we get to see more of him! Loved getting to see his powers on full display in Civil War, and wish we got a bit more of him in Infinity War (I know why we didn’t but damn if it wasn’t a bit disappointing)
Montanagreg2025-12-13 00:27
I don't think his powers have ever been on full display. He is very timid in using them. If he really unleashed it would be terrifying.
Tackit2862025-12-12 21:23
This isn’t a tease this is confirmation lol

It sounds like Secret Wars is going to have at least a partially different cast then Doomsday based on rumors. I'm guessing Vision is only in Secret Wars. Same with Dr strange. Not sure about Wolverine, Spider Man(s) and Wanda but they could be Secret Wars only.
Own-Papaya-42642025-12-14 23:33
The nice thing about battleworld is that it will be a lot easier to have all these characters show up somewhere and you don’t even need an explanation, they just reside in that domain/kingdom
MasterWinston2025-12-15 03:29
For us yes but to a casual audience I'm not sure. It would be weird to have Secret Wars be a continuation of Doomsday and swap out a ton of the cast
