Ryan Reynolds, obviously

So, who do you think is gonna be the MCU version of Wolverine? I can't really think of anyone to replace Jackman. That dude is Wolverine.

Dafne Keen.

Good answer.

Ryan Reynolds, obviously

Bad answer.

...You know, I wouldn't hate that.

Steve Blum has apparently done a lot of Wolverine's more recent animated appearances, so he'd be good maybe if not for doing largely animated/anime/video game stuff.

Ronan the Accusor in the Captain Marvel trailer. Is that new or am I late to the game?

Late to the game I think, I remember him being in the first trailer

He's always been part of it, it was part of the announcement that the movie was set in the 90s. He's a predominant Kree and if it's set in the 90s he'd have to be part of the war. Probably his rise to become THE Accuser.

New teaser for the 'big game'
Things we learn: Tony Stark and Nebula are welding.
Rocket is teaming up with the Earth heroes.
Black Widow is mad at targets.
It's long enough after the snap that posters about it have gotten old.

So Nebula ditches Stark in space.

If it's been months since the snap I guess the unsnap will involve time-travel, as it would be terrible to adjust living with people who you mourned for and just accpeted that they're gone. This means Thanos will be killed or they put him in a alternate reality where he thinks his plan worked.

Or Spider-man: Far from home takes place before the snap (he was coming back from the airport during the bus ride in Infinity War) and it only gets partially undone.

Peter was going to MOMA. He tells Iron Man that during the fight in New York.

Ah.. well, it can still be set somewhere between Homecoming and IW or not?

Well, they overtly stated that it takes place immediately after Endgame. But then they also said that the title of the 4th movie wouldn't be something anyone said but Tony called Ultron the 'endgame' and Strange said we were in the 'endgame' and they also showed footage of the Hulk in Wakanda and that shit never happened. People are making a lot of Peter's passport not having a year on it, but I think that's just to unmore it in time as a film because their whole "8 years later" thing was problematic in Homecoming.

There's lot of theories. I think that marvel feeds those so that you really have no idea what's happening going in. There are theories that Mephisto is actually behind all of this, that Ultron is going to be in it. Lot of crazy shit. We won't know until we know.

Calling it now, Endgame is going to be entirely Thanos messing with the Reality Stone.

Up the ante, Infinity War is entirely someone messing with the Reality Stone.

Oh God, the fanboys would riot if Infinity War was just a Reality Stone illusion...now I'm kinda hoping for it. The rage would be so fun to see.

Nerd rage is fun, but a plot twist like that would probably piss off the regular viewers, too. People have complained for more than a decade that superhero films don't have enough consequences. This would likely be a huge hit to Marvel's popularity.

Now, pissing off the fanboys without alienating the normals is something I'm all for, but it's not that hard. Angering nerds is even easier than shooting fish in a barrel, becaus, at least, the fish won't shoot themselves merely by existing.

[Lord Dominator]

Those fish aren't trying hard enough then

Says the dude who gave up that snit by July when he went to see Ant-Man And The Wasp.

If you're gonna smack talk me, keep up with current events.

...Fine, I lied. I didn't look shit up and I just got back from seeing it. I decided to give them one more chance. They failed. The movie in general was beyond mediocre (I'd put it right above the first two Thor's in terms of being totally forgettable) but they decided to

remind me of how shitty Infinity War was with that stinger.

This is what I get for giving them another chance.

Will do.

He's been getting the same one cameo in almost every trailer so far.

Speaking of it, the more stuff we get to see of the movie in the ads and trailers, the more the preemptive hate for it looks very bandwagony and baseless.

I have waaaaay too much faith in humanity to believe for a second that a decent writer would still pick the "it's all a dream" option to resolve the plot in this day an age.

The nerd rage inciter I'm really looking forward to is when Sam Wilson gets to be the new Captain America in the MCU and a lot of the fake nerds get outraged about Marvel "making Cap black because SJWs".
