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.

Here is the award you win for having the only non derivative nickname for Sam Wilson, patriotic edition
Its a medal.
Forever liveblogging the Avengerscomicwriter and Hodor2 might've beaten me to this, but that's kinda the point. Sam WAS the one Steve chose to don the shield, but it doesn't make Sam the next Captain America. As comicwriter mentioned, it's most likely going to be something we'll see in the season finale.
And...I liked the Captain Falcon fan nickname.

The hell you will.
I earned that medal.
I need to go back and properly read that myself. It's still so hard to believe to be honest.

One Strip! One Strip!Question: I'm noticing on Facebook a lot of companies producing shirts that are meant to be a tribute to Chadwick Boseman.
Are his family getting the proceeds? Because if not, that's a pretty dick thing to do.
Like creepy stories? Check out my book!That happens a lot when it's a famous pop culture figure. There was a massive wave of Stan Lee merchandise when he died but I doubt his estate saw a penny of it.
In this case particularly I feel that buying some cheap sweatshop t shirt "in memoriam" is especially tasteless but that's just me. You really want to honour Chadwick Boseman, donate to a cancer charity. Something actually meaningful.
"These 'no-nonsense' solutions of yours just don't hold water in a complex world of jet-powered apes and time travel."I found an article about why Marvel is being radio silent, especially in light of DC's FanDome event and I'm like "bruh, someone just died and you want to talk about why Marvel is being so quiet about announcements? Total dick move."
Listen. I hate radio silence as much as anyone else, but mourning over Chadwick's passing takes priority over any hypothetical digital event.
Okay just saying since the Avengers game comes out this week but it be baller if we ever got a Black Panther game in a similar vein to Insomniac's Spider-Man.
There's a lot you could work with. Wakanda & the nations afrofuturism look would make for a great setting, BP could have a varied moveset from claws, vibranium blades, and even a staff, & BP's own mobility would make for great traversal.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."

Mines the best, because it's original....well ok, probably not, but it's not literally another character's name.
So I win somehow.
One Strip! One Strip!
