Welcome to the main discussion thread for the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This pinned post is here to establish some basic guidelines. All of the Media Forum rules
still apply.
- This thread is for talking about the live-action films, TV shows, animated works, and related content that use the Marvel brand, currently owned by Disney.
- While mild digressions are okay, discussion of the comic books should go in this thread
. Extended digressions may be thumped as off-topic.
- Spoilers for new releases should not be discussed without spoiler tagging for at least two weeks. Rather, each title should have a dedicated thread where that sort of conversation is held. We can mention new releases in a general sense, but please be courteous to people who don't want to be spoiled.
If you're posting tagged spoilers, make sure that the film or series is clearly identified outside the spoiler tagging. People need to know what will be spoiled before they choose to read the post.

"Now, I'm not saying that if you join the Air Force, you will get superpowers. In fact, you probably won't. On the other hand, BOOM! -flexes muscles- What do you think of that?"
Oh God! Natural light!"Don't bring politics into comics, unless it's politics that we agree with!"
Of course, I might be guilty of a similar mindset, just from the opposite side of the spectrum. Hmm...
Oh God! Natural light!I feel like if your politics involve bias against other people based on their level of melanin or what's between their legs or who, if anyone, they put between their legs, those are politics worth keeping out of popular culture, yeah.
Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.The funny thing is they act as though Captain America was ever not political. That's what annoys me about these pieces. You can tell they've never read the books (or seen the movies) because they seem to think Captain America is an uber-American jock who runs around punching people while screaming "America, fuck yeah!"
