Okay, good deal. I’m looking forward to this one.

They had a hell of a time getting that form fitting outfit around Salma.

Man they are lucky they get to use that Marvel Studios logo. This looks bland and unimportant. Without the Marvel logo, it's an easy pass.

Also - and I know I'm late on this - but The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is pretty good so far. I'm only 2-3 episodes in, and the only issue I have right now is that fake Cap is a ******.

Saw a comment elsewhere that the trailer looks like Disney sat on footage for months trying to figure out how to market this movie and decided to lean heavily into "look at all these big names in a Marvel movie directed by an Academy Award winner!", which created an extremely bland and uninteresting trailer. It's really difficult to introduce something as epic and universe changing AFTER the **** that went down with Infinity War and Endgame, especially since these dweebs were nowhere to be found during that universe destroying/saving battle. Anything that comes up in a single movie that causes them to finally interfere with life on Earth will seem like bullshit since we just went through a decade and two dozen movies of building up the ultimate threat.

The movie also looks to have major Chariots of the Gods vibes, which will be interesting since Marvel/Disney went out of their way to avoid offending the perpetually offended by not calling characters like Asgardians "Gods" until Ragnarok. Up until then they were just extremely powerful beings.

Yeah, Avengers: Endgame arc will be a hard act to follow. From the looks of things, this ain't it, chief.

I guess we'll see.

I said this before but right now Marvel feels directionless. What is the next phase about? What are we working toward? Why should we care?

I'd imagine we need to, ya know, see a couple movies from the phase to know that.

5 hours of Wanda-Vision, 6 hours of Falcon & Winter Soldier, that happy little we love movies video, a handful of trailers, teasers, and TV spots, and innumerable articles/leaks/theories. I feel like we should have an idea where it's going. We knew what phase 1 was about before Iron Man 1 premiered.

WandaVision tied her into Multiverse of Madness, and Eternals also comes with more Celestials so we do know that Cosmic Marvel is kicking into overdrive. Especially with Fury and the Skrulls out bouncing around, too.

TFATWS is probably the only recent thing that didn't really further a plot setup. Season one was definitely a 'coming into his own' deal. But even then, US Agent and Baron Zemo set up a Thunderbolts possibility.

Don't forget Loki is coming soon too, but it appears to be like the others and focusing on the blip. So while we've had a ton of content, very little of that is dealing with the future. Very curious to see what Loki does

MODOK was one of the weirdest shows I've ever seen. It had some really great laugh out loud moments, but that 30 minutes felt like a very long time. Also didn't realize it was TV-MA and had some interesting moments with the kids.

Yeah, once I found out it was on Hulu (which I don't have) and not Disney+, I knew something was fishy. :lol:

I vaguely remember reading Moon Knight back in the late 80s, but have no recollection of the character or anything. Need to go dig through my comics for a refresher...

My thoughts exactly watching this trailer. Where were you guys? How much worse could it have gotten than Thanos? Seriously, is the loss of half of all life a line you aren't willing to cross to get involved? They have a lot of explaining to do.

I hope someone puts that picture on Natty or Not lol. I’m sure he was pumping up before the picture and the background behind his left forearm is blending in with his arm and makes him look like Popeye, but regardless he looks absolutely gigantic. I hope we get a training montage of Thor working off the depression and beer belly.

Apparently he's bulking up for a Hulk Hogan biopic. Hulk is an exec producer and his pal Eric Bischoff is a producer as well so this will be a fluff piece. Interesting timing considering wrestling fans hate Hogan these days.

First episode of Loki was great. It set up a ridiculous amount of **** not only for this series but I'm guessing for the rest of phase 4.

Falcon and the Winter Solider was better than expected, but 6 episodes? Dafuq?
