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.

Maybe they'll pull The Other Darrin or maybe they'll say "they just have the same name but aren't the same person".
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?Test screening for Guardians 2 went extremely well
, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Maybe they'll attend to that problem of having the one-liner kings of the MCU in the same room together by just having them in an all-out snark-on-snark battle royale where they just all rag on each other continuously until they've got it all out of their systems (except not really). But that's be cathartic, and could work in the sense of being self-aware, which those characters definitely should be.
Now if only Deadpool could show up as well...
I know it won't happen, but I'd like to have Lady Thor played by Gwendoline Christie and then have it revealed somewhere down the line that she's Jane Foster, at which point Natalie Portman would make a small appearance. Nothing against Natalie Portman. Just know she doesn't like playing Jane Foster and Lady Thor is a good way to have the character but not the actress. And who doesn't want to see Gwendoline Christie in more stuff?
I could dig it too, though supposedly Portman's lightened up somewhat towards returning as Jane. Just as long as they get Christie to chill on some of her Narmier shrieking.
Concept art for Thor: Ragnarok
and Black Panther
. First look at Hela and Wakanda.

The Pride have been cast
. Interestingly, Tina Minoru is there, but played by a completely different actress than the one who played her in Doctor Strange.
