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.

Well, Loki used his magic to turn him into Sif briefly in Thor: The Dark World.

I'd like to see a scene in Thor 4 or GOTG 3 where Thor tries to crossdress to sneak into somewhere, only for his companions to point out that he makes a terrible woman.
Then Thor would grumble about how it worked in Jotunheimer, only for Loki to point out it was because those giants were idiots and even then it almost failed if not for Loki's rapid-fire excuses.
Not MCU-related, but it IS Marvel-related:
Morbius is finally getting its first trailer next week.

Huh. Film's still more than half a year away. It doesn't come out until July 31st.
IIRC Full trailers typically drop about four months before release on average. I wonder if this will just be a teaser?

See, that part worries me. We have been getting zero updates on that movie beyond how it filmed for 12 weeks and wrapped in June of last year, and teases from Jared Leto via Instagram which was just him brooding in dark clothes.
Beyond that? Total radio silence. No hype whatsoever. I even asked around a few times and no one knew zilch about Morbius.
Heck, The New Mutants has more buzz than Morbius and that was comatose for two years until yesterday (still banking on a Magik tease in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness btw).
And it's only now we're getting the first proper trailer? Reminds a little too much of Fant4stic and...do I have to remind everyone how that one worked out?
Consider me passing on Morbius.
Well I enjoyed Venom much more than I thought I would, so maybe there is hope for Morbius.
Whatever your favourite work is, there is a Vocal Minority that considers it the Worst. Whatever. Ever!.I'm keeping an open mind.

At least this one doesn't seem to have all the behind the scenes problems Fant4stic had. Everything went just smoothly, there hasn't been any controversies surrounding it, yet.
My guess is that is going to be a very meh movie. The director previous movies where competent, but meh, and the writers are the ones from Gods of Egypt and Dracula Untold, two completely forgettable movies.
I haven't heard stories about Jared Leto attempting to suck the blood of his co-stars, so this is already going much smoother than Suicide Squad (2016).
Season 2 was great.
Also, after hearing that the PRIDE parents pull a collective Karma Houdini at the end of Runaways season 3, I am utterly unmotivated to watch it....
Certified: 48.0% West Asian, 6.5% South Asian, 15.8% North/West European, 15.7% English, 7.4% Balkan, 6.6% ScandinavianAfter all, Jared Leto's strange "method acting" was useless, not only was his character downgraded to extra, but many people consider him The Scrappy of the Jokers.
He’s not just the Scrappy among Jokers, he’s vastly inferior to pretty much every Joker you can think of: the harmless prankster Romero, the hammy badass Hamill, the mad artist Nicholson, the anarchist mastermind Ledger, and the batshit insane Phoenix are all awesome while the damaged thug Franco is the worst part of the worst movie in the DCEU.
The legend has returned.

I don't know how true it is, but there are rumors that Finn wolfhard is candidate for the role of Kid Loki in the new series.

I have the theory that one of the two new lokis (Lady Loki and Kid Loki), is "our" Loki but with a new body.
