    Strange and Black Panther are getting their own movies (not confirmed but there have been so many references now).

    There are rumors of Moon Knight, who is criminally underrated.

    I've seen it... It was very good, but I didn't consider it as good as advertised. Not best picture material IMO, but pretty good. 8/10

    My problem with it was that it was too "Hollywoodized"... The real Captain Phillips has been referred to as a coward by his crew. They claimed the dude had virtually no clue what he was doing and almost got people killed.

    The movie portrayed him as some hero when that was not really the case.

    To be fair, dramatic license is pretty common..
    You don't even want to know the real story of Billy Hays / Midnight Express..
    That **** would have been an entirely different movie..

    I still crack up at Jim Carrey doing the "visiting room scene"..

    Really though, how do we know what he was? (Having never read the crew accounts) I just don't know why we should accept a crewman's position on the subject as anymore factual than the story in the movie.

    I'm sure it was very different than how the movie was. It is after-all a movie and they are all by nature exaggerated events of human life whether based on reality or imagined.
