After how dirty they did Bucky in the Falcon show there’s no goddamn way I’d watch this.
Sacrifice all you want on the alter of “gotta make our female characters look good and the only way to do that is make everyone else look bad”, I checked out already.

You bring up a good point. There's no point in watching this garbage because they all have the same structure and plot points due to woke corporate mandates. I bet I can describe I can describe a couple yet-to-be-filmed scenes in detail just based off what Disney has been doing with Star Wars and Marvel for the last couple years.

We're going to have a scene where purple lady puts either US Agent or an out-of-character Bucky "in his place" just like the purple lady did to Oscar Issac in Last Jedi.
None of the female characters will be allowed to be directly saved by a man.
There will be a scene where Widow, Ghost, and Taskmistress huff their own farts about how smart and compentent they are compared to the boys.
A female character (likely Widow) will be the one kick the main villain's ass and deliver the final blow (see DS2, Quantumania, BP2, Thor 4)
MCU has more straight-up superheroes now than ever before, even if they really only have the Avengers (and the Young Avengers soon, I guess) when it comes to teams.
I really fricking hate this. By all accounts, leaks and rumors it's nothing more than MCU's Suicide Squad. This is not what Thunderbolts is, Thunderbolts was fricking Omni Man before Omni Man, it's a genuine superhero story about how group of villains while pretending to be heroes ended up wanting to be heroes. I genuinely don't know if morons at house of mouse are just inept or afraid to be seen as copying Invincible. If it's latter then it's double moronic, because they substitute not copying Invincible (as far as public consciousness is concerned, no one cares that Invincible is a 2000s comic and Thunderbolts slightly predates it) by copying Suicide Squad. And frick, even if we draw parallel to Omni Man once again, I am actually taking it far ahead since Nolan's turn to being real hero comes much later in the story than show has adapted or could feasibly adapt before the release of the movie, so fricking, they can even fricking one up Invincible before for morons who have never read comics.
It even fricking has Asian teenager to fill out the diversity quota AND not be a sore thumb, Jolt was cute and awesome.
There are more thunderbolts stories of it being marvel's suicide squad than that specific run. I get why you might prefer an adaptation of that than this, but it's like b***hing about Star-Lord not having his element gun or whatever the frick in the movies.
The real stupid thing is why the frick would Sam and Walker even be on this team in the first place? They have their issues but neither are bad people and it makes no sense for them to be on a team of actual supervillains and terrorists.
The truth is none of them are really supervillains. They're all enhanced mercs with checkered pasts. Ghost is a former SHIELD asset, Yelena and Taskmaster were both brainwashed assassins for the Red Room not unlike Bucky was for HYDRA, Walker is a soldier who went full moron very publically, and Red Guardian is a soldier who went full moron for his entire life.
Task Master is kind of ruined with what they pulled in the Black Widow show; not that I am watching this crap, but I actually liked Task Master as a really competent mercenary than sometimes chews more than he can bite.
Marvel intern posting every little bit of even tangential news here, you the real MVP. Tell em I said you deserve a raise.
What, Marvel’s Suicide Squad?
That is not the Thunderbolts.
It's been so for a while.
The Suicide Squad version of the Thunderbolts is literally old enough to vote.
can't wait for super soldier teaming up with a super soldier to fight against a super soldier.
I am about to not watch this movie so hard it's unreal
I’m going to not watch it twice.
MCU says it wanted a new audience and I wish them the best of luck with it.

Is all this seethe just because of that Wakanda girl disabling his arm?
So fragile.
Go woke go broke
I bet if I refused to use your made up pronouns, you'd threaten to commit suicide (and I'd encourage you to). You people aren't real human beings.

Wrong on all accounts.
>$0.05 deposited into your account
I’m sorry to hear that.
They want the Ultimate audience. And of course, being taken seriously.

I hope it does better than Captain Falcon.
Why?

I presume you mean Bucky.

Most of the actual supervillains are dead, although I could see Blonsky being there.
Blonsky isn't a supervillain anymore either, he's a self-help guru now.
Thanks, I'm going to kill myself now.
No, sir. I don't like it.
whose the one on the left?
That's the Contessa.
Because they're funded in part by the US government.
bUT GET MAD ABOUT NEO-MARXIST SUBVERSION IN MUH MSHEU.
Is there even one metahuman among them?
All of them are metas.
Bucky, Taskmaster and U.S. Agent have all been Thunderbolts in the comics.
If you're satisfied with that goofy ass oc being "taskmaster" then there's really nothing more to say
Would it have killed them to just shoehorn an actual thunderbolt om the team like Chen or Songbird, or y'know... Zemo?
Task Master is kind of ruined with what they pulled in the Black Widow show; not that I am watching this crap, but I actually liked Task Master as a really competent mercenary than sometimes chews more than he can bite.
D list MCU
Frick off
Trash ass roster. Who gives a shit about any of these characters?
looks like another flop
