The Marvel Cinematic Universe

[Merlin1958]

This guy has some additional interesting insights worth viewing..............

Spoiler:

Stupid question: Wasn't the Mother in Law on "Bewitched" named "Agnes"?


Edit: Major consideration for the MCU films!!!

Spoiler:

Wow, pretty interesting tid bit I picked up from another WV Breakdown, Did you know that, China is the 2nd largest movie watching market in the world? Furthermore, were you aware of the stringent restrictions on films shown in China? Apparently, anything dealing with the "Supernatural" is automatically "Banned". So, while everyone seems to be pretty sure that "Mephisto" is the 'Big Bad" in the MCU Phase 4, from a corporate standpoint that would be the last villain that, Disney would want for the current slate of MCU films/shows. Makes you re-think things don't it? The video also stated that, Disney has been having major issues trying to get "Mulan" released in, China so there actually is a precedent for this consideration. Food for thought anyway as we try to discern the next "Big Baddie" in the MCU. It may also be something to keep in mind for ALL Disney (and other studio's I suppose) films going forward.

..that was something I was honestly hoping for, given who Scarlet Witch really is and what the show is an adaptation of.

Its certainly inspired by /that/ story, but it's different in a key way

Spoiler:

House of M banished mutants and mutant powers, here in WV she seems to be doing the exact opposite, bringing people back to life by extracting their multiverse counterparts

Yeah the MCU always takes the original comic storyline and makes it their own.

That could very well be the case, but you may want to also consider that...................

Spoiler:

In an earlier episode there was a very short sequence showing, Wanda using her powers to presumably mess with the "Mind Stone". There was a shot in which there was a distinct yellow haze surrounding her while she performed some task or another, Could she have been tinkering with re-creating the "Mind Stone" for, Vision's re-birth? Also, you may want to consider that technically, Vision doesn't need to be brought back to life. He's actually just a super advanced "Robot" of sorts. So, it would seem to me that it would be more of a case of "putting him back together" than bringing back from the dead. Right? I mean the proper parts and a shot of energy and Voila!!! New & Improved Vision!!! All of which is not to say that the "Multi-verse" isn't involed and being introduced, just maybe not in his case. The fact that the Fox Quicksilver instead of the MCU Quicksilver showed up is certainly solid evidence that the Multi-verse is in play.

[Merlin1958]

Based on the "China Syndrome" (see what I did there? lol) I have my doubts that, Wanda is ever actually tagged as the "Scarlet Witch". At least not in any version they want to release in, China that is.

[Merlin1958]

And yet another WV/film theory with some interesting points worth a watch (If you dare!!) lol lol

Spoiler:

[Hunchback Jack]

Yes and no. The mother-in-law's name was Endora; the actress who played her was Agnes Moorhead.

HBJ

[Merlin1958]

HBJ

Ahhh, That's what it was.

[fernandito]

Also, I hope everyone is ready for the possibility that...

Spoiler:

McAvoy and Fassbender reprise their roles as Xavier and Magneto

[mae]

On a completely unrelated note, this made me wish even more that Elizabeth Olsen showed up as Michelle on the last season of Fuller House.

[Merlin1958]

This video explains some wild stuff about the whole "Multi-verse" thing.......................................

Spoiler:

Of corse, a lot is still just "Theory", but............................

[Hunchback Jack]

Yes and no. The mother-in-law's name was Endora; the actress who played her was Agnes Moorhead.

HBJ

Ahhh, That's what it was.

I’m not following the show, but if there’s a mother/mother-in-law character called Agnes, it’s almost certainly an homage. Well spotted.

Thanks. I believe she's really, Agatha Harkness from the comics. That's also kind of a big hint that, mephisto is the Big Bad. We'll see though.

[Merlin1958]

Cool. So this will more or less start up right after wv concludes it's season. Taking us right into "Black Widow".

[Merlin1958]

[Merlin1958]

Thanos, sighting.................................

Big Bad Spoiler:

Spoiler:

BTW, FWIW several "Insider Sites" claim that while we will be treated to other villains (Dr. Doom, Mephisto & possibly, Galactus) the next "Thanos" level Big Bad will be "Kang, The Conquerer"!!!!

Also, with the season finale now hurtling towards us, I'm going to go on record and name my candidate for the "Internet Breaking Finale Cameo" in the "WandaVision" series:

Spoiler:

Benedict Cumberbatch!!!! Makes a whole lot of sense, don't it? LOL

I'd love to hear who you folks think the actor may be. Perhaps, we could even get some sort of a pool going? I leave that to, The Staff and TPTB to sanction and inact.

[Merlin1958]

This guy may have just figured it all out in "WandaVision".....

I don't know about that but it could be, makes sense. WandaVision is supposed to "directly lead" (according to Feige) into Doctor Strange 2, which, I believe it's been stated, leads into Spider-Man 3. So I imagine major characters from either or both of these films could appear. I even saw speculation that Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan) could make her debut, ahead of her own show, since WandaVision takes place in New Jersey (yay!) and Kamala is from New Jersey, too.

Yeah, especially if you believe that the introduction of, Pietro is the first foray into the Multi-verse which I agree with, so far!! lol

Spider-Man 3: Tom Holland Denies that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield Appear

"They will not be appearing in this film."

Tom Holland has denied that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield will be returning for Spider-Man 3.
During an interview with Esquire, Holland, who has played Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe since 2016's Captain America: Civil War, strongly dismissed rumors that both Maguire and Garfield would be reprising their respective Spidey roles for the untitled Spider-Man: Far From Home sequel, which officially entered production towards the end of last year.

"No, no, they will not be appearing in this film," he firmly told the publication when asked about the possibility of the two actors returning. "Unless they have hidden the most massive piece of information from me, which I think is too big of a secret for them to keep from me. But as of yet, no. It'll be a continuation of the Spider-Man movies that we've been making."

...

Yeahhhhh I'm calling BS on this one. With everything swirling around that production and the casting news and all that, I'd be highly surprised if they didn't reprise their roles.

Agreed. And again, welcome to the Multi-verse which will allow them to screw around with all these character versions. They've now got free rein to introduce them as 'Alt-Universe" versions of the characters

Anyone else catch the episode yet?

[mae]

Yup, just watched it.
