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.

Damn. This show was going to be really good. I can't believe Marvel cancelled it!

Sorry, y'all. I went back in time to stop Ike Perlmutter from becoming CEO of Disney and firing Kevin Feige. That's my B.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.In the Perlmutter Timeline, incidentally, we still had the Black Panther movie but T'Challa was recast as Tom Cruise after his solo film was greenlit.
Captain Marvel never happened at all. The character showed up briefly as Thor's girlfriend.
Also, I don't know if this is actually Ike's fault or a weird butterfly ripple thing, but our Endgame movie was way different. The film ended with the Avengers realizing they couldn't defeat Thanos, so they instead appealed to his well-meaning and misguided but benevolent nature and convinced him not to go through with his plans. He joined the Avengers afterwards and they took him out for schwarma.
Yeah, instead of Black Widow, Phase 4 is starting with a Thanos solo film. It's about how sad he feels that the Earthlings haven't forgiven him even though he's stopped at least three bank robberies so far. Like, what do these people want from him? Anyway, the filmmakers are pitting him up against the Serpent Society. I think the idea is that he fights terrorists and thus earns forgiveness from the universe. It's really weird.
Rumor has it Paste-Pot Pete will show up as a minor antagonist though, so that might be pretty cool.

This season, the Primitives get uppity about their positions under the Master Race, but after a rousing speech from Black Bolt...

Well, it's not his persuasive skills that he's famous for.

My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Remember those rumors that Peyton Reed would do a Fantastic 4 movie?
Those guys who started the rumor have been stricken down because he'll direct Ant-Man 3!
The Ant-Man director who directed Ant-Man 1 and Ant-Man 2 has been signed by Marvel to direct Ant-Man 3?!
Color me shocked. Here, I was expecting Joel Schumacher. This franchise isn't complete until Scott's suit has Ant-Nipples, goddammit!

Well. I'm at a loss.
