everyone should actually watch the Wakanda Forever trailer because its very cool and doesnt tell you much other than the basic antagonistic and that the real dead human being is also dead in the movie

I avoid this topic like the plague if Im not caught up on the latest movie or episode. But if I have to dodge for unmarked trailer spoilers too then I might as well stop reading the topic.

I understand its a minority position and the reveals are things you might not consider major but I still just dont get it. It completely changes your mindset when watching a movie as youre waiting to see the stuff from the trailer. I dont want to even know which characters, new or old, are in something.

Can you imagine watching NWH completely blind? Seeing Strange in it would have been neat though not out of the ordinary. Having the other Spideys AND their villains show up though would have been true holy shit moments. Hell, even knowing that there are cameos or whatever changes your viewing experience.

Going into NWH completely blind would've definitely been a crazy experience but I honestly would not be as hyped for the movie as I was if I didn't watch the trailers.

Based on the characters as we know them, M'baku is still my number one choice for BP replacement.

Not entirely on-topic but I want to bring up how when watching Multiverse of Madness I wanted to joke about it being the best Dark Phoenix movie. I also felt the movie handled the "unstable powered woman" trope about as well as it could and was pleasantly surprised the climax didn't involve Strange beating the curse out of Wanda.

I can see that it technically changes the viewing experience, I just dont agree that it makes the viewing experience worse.

and I still get the fun surprise of doctor strange is in this? or whatever, I just get it watching the trailer instead of watching by the movie

i get to watch the cool BP2 trailer, and then I also get to watch the (hopefully) cool BP2 movie and have two cool times

also trying to avoid even knowing what basic characters are in a major film seems like a lot of work... you have to not go see other movies that would have a trailer before them and also not look at... walls in the theater to see a poster? and also not see any sort of ad, I guess? No thanks

That's new info to me! Maybe only the pre-release ones? I know I got some of the appearances spoiled for me from casual Reddit browsing. ...Now I need to go watch the NWH trailers...

I really only go to the theaters for Marvel these days, so posters are easy to avoid. I don't watch a lot of TV and when I do I'm usually skipping through ads. If there's one I can't avoid I just don't look at the screen. The biggest issue is just general internet browsing. Just have to be careful around the movie release and try to see it in theaters in a week or two. ...It sounds crazier/stupider than it actually is in practice.

Like for Thor, I couldn't avoid knowing about Portman being in it as Lady Thor. But I had no idea that Christian Bale and Russell Crowe were in it. I was like, "wait...is that...wow really they got Bale?!?"

The weird thing is that the Fantastic Four origin story is basically the perfect excuse for them to have been missing this whole time. Up in space for entirely too long and getting their powers there.

That said, I think it would be the third time seeing it and I don't know that it's interesting enough to go through again with an MCU spin. I guess they could have just hung out in space or a multiverse doing Fantastic Four family stuff instead.

Was Hulk not an origin story? Maybe I'm confusing it with the non-MCU one.

Wouldn't Shang-Chi also be an origin story?

I guess it is more of an origin story for the ten rings than it is Shang-Chi

Assuming you're not counting the TV shows, I would also count Guardians of the Galaxy as an origin story, since it shows how the team got together. Black Panther too, since it basically shows him taking the mantle.

It might just be me, but I have a hard time imagining nobody knew Reed Richards before the snap. Especially if they want to present him properly.

One of the better things about The Incredible Hulk is how they go through literally his entire origin story through the opening credits where it's just a montage of everything you need to know. It's actually really well-done and concise.

The thing about Shang-Chi, Guardians, and Black Panther is that the main characters already have low-tier superhero powers at the start of the film, so they don't really ping as standard superhero origins to me, all of those characters already kick ass. I guess you'd call Shang-Chi an origin story since they do talk about his past and how he became crazy good at martial arts, and Guardians is an origin story because it's how the team got together

Thor is absolutely the equivalent of an origin story because with the removal of the Donald Blake concept, this is as close a relevant first story as possible.

Shang Chi is definitely an origin story because its the origin of him becoming an active superhero, even if its not exactly the origin of him being good at fighting (although we see that too in flashbacks)

like before the movie starts hes just hanging out as a dude named Shawn, and then we see him become super hero guy Shang-Chi
