you need to go back to Cinemaphile
>Midnight Suns
sick
>it's a Doctor Strange sequel
lame
also what the frick is VisionQuest and Midnight Angels
Visionquest is going to be a sequel to Wandavision loosely based on the Avengers West Coast run of the same name.
Midnight Angels is supposedly going to be a spinoff of Black Panther 2, but that one's in such an early stage of development it could easily end up dropped before ever being officially announced.
oh cool, both of those actually seem p interesting. might have to catch up on the MCU now, haven't seen anything since Endgame aside from WandaVision, the Spider-Man sequels, and Multiverse of Madness
>loosely based on the Avengers West Coast run of the same name.
THEY CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT
The Vision Quest comic storyline ENDED with Vision rebuilt as White Vision. The MCU has already reached that point.
It's possible they could look to basing it on Vision's journey in getting back to normal in 90s Avengers and his first mini, but it's more likely going to adapt elements of the 2015 Vision book, there are already rumors it's going to introduce Viv Vision.
>I still can't believe they're actually doing shows on Ironheart, Agatha Harkness, and fricking Echo
Daredevil was popular and they're going ahead with a spinoff that looks like it was greenlit and announced before everything was worked out for doing an actual new Daredevil show. WandaVision was popular but their own idiocy means they can't make a second season, so they're doing the Agatha and Vision spinoffs instead.
Ironheart was basically created as MCU-bait by Bendis, and they took the bait. I haven't been paying attention to how well she was received in Black Panther 2, but if people did like her there, they already have an audience for this.
>Why pump out all this trash?
Is this a general complaint about the quality of the MCU, or that they're pushing characters MCU audiences know instead of pushing characters comic readers think are "more important"?
It will be based mostly from Tom King's book.
They will change it to White Vision using Chaos Magic combined with mind stone fragments rather than brain waves to recreate Wanda as Virginia from his memories (brief cameo by Olsen), and then create Vin, Viv, and Sparky. White Vision might kill a guy.
Vin will die. Virginia will die. White Vision and Viv will survive. Sparky might well be rebuilt by Vision.
>It will be based mostly from Tom King's book.
As a Wanda/Vision fan who quit the MCU when the MoM leaks were confirmed to be true, I guess I'm not coming back to the MCU for Vision Quest.
There's still a chance it will be something other than that, but the rumours about Viv kind of point to the 2015 King book being there in some form.
In the comics, that book, and the preceding Uncanny Avengers arc where Vision gets another android family were both things that happened because some editor wanted to fight MCU synergy and keep Vision and Wanda apart. The MCU copying this stuff is not remotely a good sign, it's just more misery and suffering and adding needless additional obstacles to the reunion promised at the end of WandaVision.
Agree on that. I now seriously fear any Wanda and Vision reunion might get shoved into a two minute scene in Secret Wars.
Even that much looks optimistic at the moment. I don't know why the adventures of a witch and an android who are married is too much to ask for from the MCU or the comics, but I'm not interested in more suffering, and not coming back for two minutes in someone else's movie.
I still can't believe they're actually doing shows on Ironheart, Agatha Harkness, and fricking Echo
Supposedly Echo is in production hell at the moment, with the higher-ups not happy with how it's turned out so far.
>Spring 2023 - Secret Invasion
>July 28, 2023 - The Marvels
>Fall 2023 - Ironheart
>Winter 2024 - Echo
>Spring 2024 - What If…?: Season 2
>July 26, 2024 - Thunderbolts
>Fall 2024 - Agatha: Coven of Chaos
Does anyone look forward to these? Why pump out all this trash?
I'm looking forward to Thunderbolts, Coven of Chaos, and Secret Invasion. And Echo if it's done well, but I have a suspicion it won't be.
Agatha is going to be sick bro.
Also Harrison Ford as Red Hulk in Thunderbolts should be cool,
I'd look forward for Thunderbolts if the lineup wasn't gutter trash.
Ghost has apparently been removed of Thunderbolts.
Who the frick even cares anymore?
>at least one project every 90 days
You thought things were bad now, it's about to get a lot worse.
Some anons keep claiming that Eternals and Shang Chi would be getting sequels, but it looks like that's not happening, right? Those movies flopped so it would make no sense to give them sequels since literally no one is asking for those.
Domestically Shang Chi was the #2 movie, Eternals #6 (Spider-Man NWH was #1, Black Widow #4).
It barely hit 400k, which is total shit for a Marvel movie. For any other movie, it would be considered fine, sure. Got lots of controversy around the main actor being too ugly and saying anti-China stuff too, doubtful Marvel wants to keep that drama around.
The only movies that did well were Fast, which opened in a gap where the lockdowns were reduced, and NWH, which came out at the end of the year with the lockdowns over. Covid Lockdowhs killed all box office (and almost theaters).
Do you really believe Shang Chi would've done way better if it wasn't lockdown? Gotta disagree with you there. It just wasn't a very good movie. I would not be surprised to see it never getting a sequel and Shang just showing up in the background of team movies
I tend to think general MCU inertia would have led to Black Widow, Shang Chi and Eternals all performing a lot better in a world without Covid, even if they ended up not being particularly loved.
Shang Chi was substantially better than Thor, Ant-Man, Dr Strange or Cap Marvel's first solo flick.
Hardcore disagree, and the money disagrees as well. From what I've seen in the MCU news so far, Disney has wisened up to this as well, and has taken notice that Wong is the far more popular and well received Asian male character. Seems like they may planning to bump him up to a main role instead.
Weren't the trademarks of their sequels titles (Wreckage of Time and Celestials: End of Time) leaked alongside NWO and Kang Dynasty?
Idk. I've only seen the Shang Chi actor himself claiming that there would be a sequel, and that was like over a year ago? I figured maybe it had been dropped.
>Spring 2026 - Nova
>Nova makes his debut 12 years after cosmic marvel is established and 8 years after Xandar's destruction is established
wow cool thanks
Yeah they fricked up there although Rich's origin also takes place after Xandar gets decimated (which is what Thanos did) and for Annihilation you just need the Nova corps to die for good and him to experience it.
There’s no Shang Chi 2 and Armor Wars is too late when it starts filming this year.
How long are they going to keep this franchise going? When Avengers Secret Wars comes out, the MCU will be old enough to post on Cinemaphile, it's been going on so long.
For as long as it continues being profitable, of course. I think profits will go down significantly once all the OG heroes are gone but that won't happen for quite a while still.
If the Kang movies make bank like the Thanos movies did, you think they'd still keep the franchise going? What if they do another line of films building up to Galactus or some other big bad? By that point, the MCU will be almost 30. Surely the franchise doesn't have that much steam in it.
You're asking me if I think Disney will continue milking something for as long as it succeeds financially? Yes, that's pretty much 100% guaranteed. Look what they keep doing with frickin Star Wars.
Supposedly the long-term plans after Secret Wars are to do a set of phases that are mostly X-Men stuff.
they are probably going to bring back old superheroes too using the multiverse as the reason why.
soft reboot after secret wars, then probably three more sagas (with each being like 5 - 8 years long): one focusing on x-men, with onslaught as the big bad, and then one with doctor doom being the focus, and then as a finale and hard reset, they can have galactus
>Echo
>what if season 2
>agatha
why do they just like seeing money burn
Where the frick is X-Men '97 so I can be cripplingly disappointed
I dont give a shit, give me a movie where its a dude with a hat running from a guy with no hair
Easy indicator how this is fake. Sony is greedy as frick there is no way that there isn't going to be a new Holland Spider-Man film out by 2024. This is the same company that rushed out FFH so they could end their Marvel contract around the same time Endgame would came out.
Fake.
>Midnight Suns
>Suns
Of course, gender neutral
So things have no chance of getting better until at least 2026. At least now I'm mentally prepared
1. Where's the other season 2s? Ms. Marvel and Moon Knight crews teased season twos if their shows
2. Will Kamala ever FRICKING stretch?
