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.

    Original post 
Since Thor and now Captain America came out this year, I wanted to get what Tropers thought of the concept and execution of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in general. Personally I love the idea and wonder why this idea hasn't been seriously tried before. It sorta seems to me like the DCAU in movie form (And well, ummm, with Marvel), and really 'gets' the comic book feel of a shared universe while not being completely alienating.

Perhaps we should open up a discussion about Infinity war for people who don't care about getting spoilers....those teases are cruel.

That IS a HUGE spoiler if true. And yeah, we DEFINITELY should open up a dedicated Infinity War spoiler thread, especially with how much they're hyping up the twists in this film.

Eh...could you post stuff like this in the spoiler discussion, too? I actually didn't want to know that Shuri saves Vision.....

MOD note: we do love irony.

I didn't. Didn't you see? It is written on the still of the vid. I didn't even watch it and was spoiled. But I apologize...I should have simply pointed out that even the titles on the vid are spoilery.
