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.

Great news for all fans.
Charlie Cox Daredevil is back in Spider man: No way home.

... wow, a click-bait article from 2020 on a website I've never heard of.
Found a Youtube Channel with political stances you want to share? Hop on over to this page and add them.Basically if it's not from Deadline, the Hollywood Reporter, Variety, or directly from someone known to be attached to the production, you are generally safer to dismiss any report out of hand.
Occasionally something from less reliable source turns out to be right, sometimes because they did get lucky with a scoop and sometimes simply because they just made a lucky guess. However it's easy to remember the hits and not the dozens of other reports that turned out to be nothing.
Don't get my wrong, I'd love it if Daredevil showed up, I just haven't seen any especially compelling evidence pointing in that direction.
Charles Murphy tends to have a better reputation when it comes to the leaker/rumor mill, but that's all relative. So he's better than, like, literal dime-a-dozen randos on 4chan. And that's not to say there haven't been legit 4chan leaks, just...y'know, take it all with heaps of salt.
All that said though NWH having a Murdock cameo has been floating in some fashion for months now, and if anything's gonna make or break it for ya it's those pics John Campea tweeted weeks back.
So, I was watching this:
I like it, but I'm not here to talk about this entertaining 16 bit re-enactment of the final battle of Avengers Endgame.
I want to point out Thor's move during the fight, where he's bereft of both Mjolnir and Stormbreaker, and given the choice to call a weapon....chooses Stormbreaker. Now the latter is supposed to be more powerful, so there may have been a logic to it, but as it's been pointed out across a few threads, Stormbreaker's lack of a worthiness enchantment lets Thanos grab it with reflexes even faster than Drax (nothing goes above the Mad Titan's head either
) and start using it to slowly impale the Son of Odin.
The thing is, even though it would have denied us the moment where Steve picked up the hammer, Thor should have called for Mjolnir. Because Thanos couldn't have done what he did if it had been the hammer.
So picture this: Thor called Mjolnir; Thanos tries to grab it and gets a Quicksilver styled surprise when it suddenly just drops to the ground and those few seconds lets Thor:
1) Calls for Stormbreaker and either put it in Thanos' face or deliberately aim it at Thanos;
2) Lightning bolt him (he can use the Thunder without either weapon. Maybe it wouldn't pack the same punch but it would still be a good move);
3) something else.
Just my thoughts on a soon to be four year old movie.

It however does somewhat resemble a scalpel blade, albeit much much bigger.
That said, the name is more about Strange's intent for it — he refuses to think of it as a weapon.

Disgusted, but not surprised
