Yeah, if Rogue permanently siphons off a significant fraction of Captain Marvel's powers, it'd make CM more usable as a hero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slikmar Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 Well, they could also use the caveat that every time we have seen her at those levels, she was in close proximity to the power stone, which is what apparently gave her her powers, or at least activated and boosted them. At least I think was the Power stone. So, remove it from her proximity and you can downplay her power level some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disney (Feige in particular) understands the optics of doing something like that, and will find a rational way forward that doesn't involve recasting T'Challa.

Dude drew the short straw among the original six when they were handing out personal charisma and the "It" factor, and barely spits his foot out of his mouth long enough to say his lines. I've always loved Renner. slikmar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 Renner's good, but Hawkeye hasn't been a foreground character. Retirement and spending the blip as Ronin don't help his application for the leadership position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greywind Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 Of course he wasn't foreground. "Well I see better from a distance." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclevlad Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 Plus, they positioned Hawkeye to retire in Endgame, adn apparently that's still the plan. Clint Barton will show up...but passing the mantle. I'm actually better with that, purely from a story perspective.

Clint trains a young woman named Kate Bishop to be the next Hawkeye. She is the second Hawkeye in the Marvel comics universe This series will be based on the current comic.

unclevlad Posted September 6, 2020 Report Share Posted September 6, 2020 That's what was set up in the aftermath scenes in Endgame. And remember the first half of Endgame. 5 years pass from Thanos' snap, IIRC, and the world is still *reeling* from it. Clint went through those years, knowing that, ok, the failure wasn't his alone, but it's still his in part. Hopelessness, despair, futility...rampant nihilism. I'd HATE to see the suicide rates in those 5 years. So as part of the second chance, he sees the one person he cares about the most, sacrifice herself in his place. OH JOY!!!! ANOTHER round of devastating loss, combined with a mountain-sized pile of survivor's guilt. Makes far more sense to say he can't muster the passion needed to return to the hero life. His rock bottom is somewhat different from Thor's rock bottom; Thor's is rooted in failure. Clint's is rooted in loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way Renner is committed for something other than the films. Not that they can’t change things at the drop of a hat, but I hate to think of the co-stars, crew, etc. who could lose their jobs if they cancel the series before it even starts.
