Rather have that than an Eternals sequel tbh.

Unless they're dropping Zhao like a hot potato.

Spider-Man
Dr. Strange
Thor & The Guardians

War Machine
Ant-Man
Wasp
Captain America & The Winter Soldier
Scarlet Witch and a new Vision
Hawkeye?
Black Panther

Valentina's Team.....
Yelena (new Black Widow or White Widow)
U.S. Agent John Walker

remaining....

Shang Chi
Moon Knight
Blade
Black Knight
The Eternals
Hawkeye (Kate Bishop)
She-Hulk
IronHeart

Taskmaster was taken away by the Widows in the film but taken away by Thunderbolt Ross in the Deleted Scenes

Baron Mordo is on the loose.

Isiah Bradley's Grandson is The Patriot in the comics.

Joaquin Torrez has the old Falcon tech...and is the new Falcon in the comics

It might be getting out of control but they at least have the TV shows to work out some kinks while the films still continue.

Its a damn shame because I though the original idea was to work this out with the Netfilx universe......Power Man, Iron Fist, Jessica Jones, and Daredevil are purgatory. Matt will appear in Spider-Man but who knows after that.

Echo and Harkness are weird choices.

The Kang Dynasty movie and Secret Wars do not seem to be the same films that Infinity Wars and Endgame were. The Kang Dynasty seems to be a Avengers film that is the equivalent of the Ultron film. Secret Wars seems to be the equivalent of the Infinity Saga except it is one movie instead of 2. Apparently the pushing back of Secret Wars is due to the fact that they have to set things up for Secret Wars. One thing that will have to be fixed is the Jane Foster character. In Secret Wars, she is Mighty Thor and that will have to be reconciled with where her character is at the end of Love and Thunder. She could return as Valkyrie initially and later as Mighty Thor.

The reason people watched Wandavision is because they were interested in the Scarlet Witch's story. The fact that Dr Strange 2 earned over $200 million more with the Scarlet Witch than the first one proves this. You would think they would be doing more with the Scarlet Witch.

Elizabeth Olsen deserves her own film. I definitely want to see more of the Scarlet Witch.

I am bored with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That is why there are two stories that would interest me. Because they are different. It is not just about beating the bad guys.

The first is Jane Foster. If she comes back, it would be several years since the end of Love and Thunder and she may decide to not go back to Thor. Thus she continues to make people think she is dead. Think of the old Incredible Hulk tv series.

The second is the Scarlet Witch. I would hope that they would deal with what she did. There are two aspects they could look at. One could be the legal issues that she could be faced with for her actions. The second is trust. No one trusts her and if she helps anyone, their reaction is for her to go away because they are afraid of her losing control again. What is frustrating is that the writer of Dr Strange 2 has said there would be a redemption arc. Feige has hinted at it. She has been talked about in Agatha, Vision Quest and even Wonderman. Yet Elizabeth Olsen has said she has not been asked to return to the role.

No one brings the crazy quite like Aubrey Plaza. She'll make it a compelling watch, at the very least.

I think Agatha was horribly miscast, and poorly written, to boot. I know that I’m in the minority there, but that’s alright. I’ll take the comics version of Agatha every time. Better stories, no awful singing of awful songs, and real threats like the Salem’s Seven. Everything about the MCU is just so watered down from the source material! It’s just becoming weak sauce; too many bland and unnecessary ingredients and flavors.

[Mister VistaVision]

Any chance they actually credit Jack Kirby for creating this character?

FF #168 was one the first comics I ever purchased as a kid.

If we do ever get a Salem's Seven in the MCU, I dont think it will be in a Harkness show.
They should be fighting another team.

Wild, I have legit not heard of any of those characters. Definitely getting into some glaring blind spots for me.

Yeah this is way before the Byrne run. Franklin was an infant.
And magic elements of the FF arent really explored.
And I was a kid myself reading this.

The Salem Seven never really got developed afterwards.....they had one other appearance that I recall, and after that, I'd have to google their overall history.

Now THAT is interesting!

As if I wasn't already psyched up enough for this, they go out and pull Evita herself in, LOL.

I have a feeling this is going to be a ton of fun.

The above makes me think of:

"We're no longer called Sonic Death Monkey. We're on the verge of becoming Kathleen Turner Overdrive, but just for tonight, we are Barry Jive and his Uptown Five."

By spring it'll be called some other subtitle. Delay a year when it's in the can? This is bull.

[Chedwiggen]

Curious if they're delaying it for reshoots or just to make sure they have some new content for next year
