...and he has a genius level intellect, plus, what many villains don't have, a deep knowledge of metaphysics and other such spiritual things.
I hope to hell they 1) get a good actor to voice him, and 2) get him right. Because it's Marvel, I have high hopes.
But I was concerned, because at the end of The Avengers, he looked great...but you could see his eyes - in the comic, they were always blacked in shadow.
..and I thought they looked kind of stupid. Here's hoping he kicks ass, and the universe after.
And a bigger note, I'm FINE with them throwing out the Infinity Gauntlet comic book story, and doing it totally different, even though they've stuck to the basics in their movies
thus far. The Avengers were basically cameos in the original comic book, not having much impact on anything at all, except to be a distraction.
After building up these great actors, Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Hemsworth, etc........I don't think fans will wait two years to watch them be hanging around in the background.
No, they want Chris Evans to heroically challenge Thanos, and Robert Downey Jr. to engage him in his wonderful cockyness, with Thanos responding back in turn. (And I don't know
if they want to pay a few guys $20 million each to stand in the background.....)
