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.

We've seen the R&D at Stark in IM 1. They were just behind the curve on thr whole arc reactor thing.
So... Any chances of seeing Iron Man famous Proton Cannon in Endgame?
![]()
Not to mention FREAKING Galactus with a team of Hawkeye and Taskmaster
Indeed. We also got Hulk Car gloves from the game in The Incredible Hulk, so Marvel isn't shy of referencing games.
And as this is probably Iron Man last outing, I wonder if they will show his Proton Cannon. Hell, I would like to see Hulk using his Gamma Tsunami.
With how he can create weapons with his new Nano technology, I guess the proton canon isn't out of the question is it?
One Strip! One Strip!Needing an Infinity Stone for the Proton Cannon sounds like how Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite ended, where Stark armed the protagonist of Mega Man X with a weapon the former invented called the "Infinity Buster" and armed with a Stone, and with Strange making everyone offer a power-up, takes down Ultron Omega.

Some Endgame action figures are in the wild and while they mostly don't show anything we haven't seen before: It does show that Valkyrie might be in the movie.

Brunnhilde is her name.
By the way, you can't really copyright names like "Thor" and "Valkyrie." They are in the public domain. What you can do is copyright those specific characters, so while you can have a character named Thor, you can't have a blond-haired Thor who wears that same armor and wields that same hammer. As for calling it "Marvel's Thor" or "Marvel's Valkyrie," that's probably a trademark thing. All the movies and TV shows also technically begin with "Marvel's."

Yes. The "Uncanny" is the X-Men's chosen adjective like all of those.
Amusingly due the inexistence of that word in Portuguese they're here just called "Fabulous X-Men", which isn't quite as catchy.
"All you Fascists bound to lose."Is there a Portuguese name for the Uncanny Valley trope?
The robotics term, after which the page is named, is simply referred to as "Valley of Strangeness".
"All you Fascists bound to lose."

Shuri seems to be Wakanda's head scientist and the only one who's a real character but there are quite a few people around her lab, some of whom would logically have different specialties. Though I guess Stark Industries probably has some R&D beyond Tony himself.
