Upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) Movies Use Spoiler Tags

There could be another "incident" in the MCU that wipes out a number of heroes. I mean Wanda is a prime suspect.

Whatever she ends up doing could kill T'challa off screen.

That would be a good route to go, gives the new bad some serious credibility.

I reckon the movie will open with his funeral. I don't think they will kill him on screen, even if it is double or CGI.

That’s the perfect way of handling it IMO.

I think I'd like some form of funeral, but do not want to see the character dying in a fight or something. Imagine being his family and seeing that.

Was actually just reading the recent Jason Aaron Avengers run where Black Panther absolutely wrecks an actual god, Khonshu (who will no doubt be showing up in Moon Knight). Made me a little sad we'll not be getting moments like that for him.

Disney hedging its bets on people being desperate to return to the cinema...

It is a smart move. At that point everyone who wants a vaccine in the US should have a vaccine but there is no telling how skeptical people will be about going into a packed cinema. They are currently back in all or nearly all states but most with a limited capacity.

This is true but increasingly, films are relying on international markets to make their money, so there's a bit of a gamble there.

Not that Marvel seem to need any more luck - "Hey lets make a series about grief, retreating into TV for relief, and being trapped in a small area- oh look a pandemic"

Initial reaction, meh.

We know Marvel need to branch out to new heroes to keep everything fresh, but everything about that was MEH.

pixelburp · 19-04-2021 4:45pm

I remember when Guardians of the Galaxy was announced, there was a lot of scepticism if audiences could handle the sheer cosmic silliness of it all; whether Marvel might be overplaying their hand a tad - and yet, it ended up being (arguably) one of the franchise's better and more loved series.

This feels like the opposite problem: taking what ostensibly appears like a really generic property, and hoping/believing a slap of MCU paint will do the rest. If nothing else, you'd hope the fight choreography will be decent.

I actually enjoyed the trailer. Its never going to be iron man or thor like but it looks fun and action packed. There appears to be a huge battle scene aswell. As mentioned marvel need to create new heroes. I do seriously dislike that akinfawa or whatever her name is tho

I have never been a fan of kung fu movies so very little excitement about this one. I do have interest in what they do with the 10 rings though

Will keep my mind open though. Felt similar about magic and Dr Strange but it ended up with a decent enough movie and then became an important and more interesting character as time progressed.

It's funny, both GotG bore me to bits and I'm a massive, massive fan of it all!

Dr Strange is a big character in the comics and has a lot of good powers and storylines.

Shang-Chi in the comics felt like a lazy cash in by Marvel to reach a new demographic.

Looks like a case of another generic villain with no overarching story. I’ll still watch it like but I have a feeling it’ll be completely skippable on rewatches. This could be the MCU’s iron fist.

Shang Chi 100% was a lazy cash in at the start but he's found a niche in modern comics popping up as a mentor when a character needs to level up in unarmed combat for whatever reason (especially funny when it happens in Gail Simone's Domino). I could see that becoming this characters place in the MCU too. I believe he's currently mentoring that new demon sword kid who's name I keep forgetting

Also technically.. Iron Fist is still the MCUs Iron Fist. It's mad how people are mentally decanonising the Netflix stuff already. That'll save Marvel some work when they want to do it.
