MCU Television and Animation Series on Disney + - WandaVision, FATWS, Loki, etc

Does anyone else think that Wanda planned to bury Vision's body at the house plot they bought together? I got those vibes, considering the papers were in right in the driver's seat of the car.

I don't know, just thought I'd put that out there, since I haven't seen anyone else mention it.

All I can say about the latest episode is Kathryn Hahn got her yearly fiber intake chewing the scenery all episode. Om nom nom nom. They shoulda seen what Drake Hogestyn was doing, this show could have only benefitted from his squinting and snorting and extreme overacting. john-black-photo.jpeg

X-Men have been done to death, the movie timeline was needlessly confusing, and frankly the racism allegory rings hollow now that apparently everyone is a snowflake claiming to be oppressed.

Note: I did like the old X-Men cartoon so I don’t say this out of pure hatred.
I don't care if they've been done to death, I want to see a good X-Men movie for once and the Dark Phoenix Saga done right for a change, and they can finally say it came from space without execs thinking it's weird or audiences won't like it because Guardians and the whole build up with the Infinity Stones.

Mutants as an allegory for oppressed minorities has never worked beyond the surface level anyways. The Legion TV show, despite its flaws, actually addresses this in a pretty funny way by making the anti-mutant antagonist a gay dude with an adopted black son, as if to say - this guy's not a strawman bigot, humans have very real reason to be scared of mutants.

Doubt they would do dark pheonix again. I want a good Rogue one where shes not a whiny teenager and actually has all her comic powers.
 
More "leaks" for the final episode are floating around. Not sure what to believe, but here's what I've collected so far.
Pietro is indeed from another universe, not sure if they explictly say from where or not. Vision puts his memories etc. into White Vision and passes away. White Vision ends up outside the Hex and says a single word "Wanda". Agatha gets away, possibly meeting up with Nightmare. Don't particularly believe that last one but the rest are plausible. Big fights obviously with Agatha vs Wanda's family, Photon and Quicksilver.

I thought that the cosmic elements were dropped because it was deemed too similar to Captain Marvel, which beat X-Men: Dark Phoenix to the cinema by a few months.

And puts Captain Marvel in a coma. :lol:
 
Some people were expecting to have Fassbender in the latest episode for what I read. I think we need to just accept that QS wasn't brought from another dimension and it was just Evan Peters the actor playing the role as a nod to his own role but without any more consequence. Sure, I could be wrong, but I don't think they're risking much here.
The best way I can see Marvel bringing in the Fox Universe is to have it done via multiverse, whether it's in Friday's episode or in Doctor Strange 2. Mutants and the F4 are probably the hardest characters to bring into something that's been going on for as long as the MCU. The F4 are Marvel's first superhero team, and are almost enshrined as the parents of the rest of the teams. Almost everyone seeks advice from Reed and Sue. You can't just bring them as youngsters now. It doesn't fit.

Mutants, on the other hand, have been around since the dawn of mankind. One of the main villains was in ancient Egypt, one has been in every modern war, and another was in Auschwitz. I'd find it hardly believable if they were around all along and only now decide to pop up.

Could we have Agatha meet her Kathryn Hahn counterpart from Stepbrothers and have a Will Ferrell/John C Reilly cameo? Wait, that would be fun. No time for that shit.

I don't know the behind the scenes stuff. They should've done it anyway because it just turned into them redoing X-Men 3 but with those same characters younger.
 
I dunno, Norse mythology states that Midgard, the world humans live in, was created from the corpse of the giant Ymir. His blood created the oceans, the clouds his brain, the land we walk on made from his flesh.

Not exactly something I'd tell my kids unless I wanted to give them nightmares.
I think Norse mythology is pretty metal, even after Rick Riordan took a crack at it. I grew up with Walt Simonson Thor comics and sought out the real deal at my library.

Says you. As a kid I loved details like “dwarves spawned from maggots eating Ymir’s flesh”.

same for most other folk tales where they changed it to a happy end or removed stuff, but still left shit in like "the hunter cut open the wolf's belly to find little red riding hood's grandma" or "hansel kicked the witch into the oven to be burned alive" after they were literally send into the forest to starve and die.
the whole point of most of them is to scare kids straight as a cautionary tale.

so her argument is "I only know the kiddie version, so it's ok for me to compare it to literal kiddie shit".
