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.

And to complete the chain, 90’s animated May was basically plucked wholesale from the 60’s and 70’s.
I really liked what the comics did with May in the years before OMD, establishing her a where Peter got his headstrong traits, and I like that some of that the comics retained that to an extent (eventually) after the cosmic retcon and that it's also (though not all: R.I.P. the surprising adorableness that was May / Jarvis) coming into adaptations of her as well.

Ah the good thing about Tom Holland looking & being young, he can play Spidey for a looooooong time.
They can easily chronicle his life starting from high-school, college, young-adult, & even end with his marriage to MJ.
We can even get a film torch-passing to his daughter.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."Let's take a moment to appreciate the way they end the DVD ad for Ant-Man and the Wasp
◊ if you've seen the movie.

I'm sorry did you just imply that Thanos did something wrong?
I'm still curious about the logistics of what does and doesn't turn to dust.
When we see Bucky disintegrate, his bionic arm disintegrates with him yet his gun stays intact. However, other people, such as the Wakandan soldiers and Star-Lord, have their weapons disappear with them. Everybody's clothes disappear as well, even super-suits like the Black Panther and Iron Spider suits. Groot disappears but Stormbreaker's handle remains. Nick Fury's pager does not disappear. Does the Snappening have to manually decide for each individual what goes away with them?
If Iron Man had been dusted, would only the metal components still wrapped around his body disappear while the scraps scattered around Titan remain, just because they have the arbitrary distinction of not being part of his suit at the moment?
You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!

She was definitely still old, but I thought she was a little less... babushka-ish. Though I guess maybe old people did still kind of dress like that at the time.
