this is sort of an anti-spoiler, because its spoiling what wont happen so thats ok, right?

seems like there wont be any X-Men project in the MCU (other than Deadpool 3) until after Secret Wars.
Aside from the issues with actually introducing them, allegedly theres some contracts with producers at 20th Century Fox (and maybe actors?) that wont run out for a while still, so Marvel Studios and/or Disney dont want to do a new movie before those expire.

which honestly I am very ok with, because the MCU is already pretty dang crowded. even with all the projects they put out, we still go years between appearances of major characters

like who knows when theyll get a chance to address the White Vision issue

and itll probably be over two years between Shang-Chi appearances unless he makes some sudden cameo

makes you wonder what mutants they might just toss around introducing cameos into unexpected entries

and since FF is confirmed not an origin story we can definitely expect them at least popping up in post-credits

My guess is that maybe the FF's expedition will have been to the quantum realm rather than space, and they've been stuck there since the 60s or 70s or something like that. Opens the door for them to appear in the Quantumania post credits and to be a part of the Kang stuff before their movie.

It'd be kinda sick if Quantumania was a secret backdoor F4 pilot. I mean, you still want this to be an Ant-man movie, obviously, but it just kind of feels like they should show up.

Ant-Man's director did pitch a FF movie to Fox in the early 2000s and was set to direct the first Fox film before he dropped out so there might be something to that. The guy at least has some FF ideas.

yeah I've seen a few people theorizing the way to make FF pre-existing in the MCU while not being in recent endeavours is to have their story tied to the Quantum Realm in an incident that could've happened many years prior without needing them to be so heavily aged and it just seems to really make a lot of sense to do something involving that

plus it also just fits them right in with Kang, it works

from the previous topic:

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.

also, it fits with the ang lee hulk movie. if you want to see that movie as the first canon MCU movie, you can!

In one of the other topics I noted issues I have with the stance filmmakers like Scorsese and Coppola take towards the MCU. To be honest I understand their frustration with the predominance of superhero movies at the box-office, heck I even share it. I just have a nagging feeling that other filmmakers more versed in "genre" fare like Richard Donner and John Carpenter would be more enamored with the success of the MCU. Honestly with Donner it's kind of guaranteed he would have given he directed the two most highly-regarded Superman films and his production company made the X-Men movies. I'll gladly say I think Lethal Weapon 1 & 2 are some of the best action movies ever made and the series is my go-to example of why many aspects of the MCU's "formula" have been around far longer than the MCU itself. Maybe it doesn't help the guy who wrote the first two went on to doctor Iron Man's script and then write and direct Iron Man 3.

Mostly I just have a problem with Scorsese and Coppola admitting they want to force audiences to watch what they deem "cinema". Mass audiences aren't usually rushing out to see movies about dysfunctional people and/or relationships like Punch-Drunk Love and Midsommar. Not that I mean any diss towards those movies, and anyway I loved the crap out of There Will Be Blood.

you can just google "john carpenter on marvel movies" to find evidence that supports your point here, though "enamored" probably isn't quite right

anyway, a lot of people like to say that people like coppola and scorsese are "jealous" or "elitist" or something. that's really not their issue. the issue is that the business of movies is shifting so that if you don't make a superhero movie / a franchise / a sequel then your movie is extremely unlikely to be successful, and they want to make sure that those types of movies still get made and still get shown in theaters. you cant just let the market / $$$ direct what gets produced and promoted. otherwise, the book market gets mired in YA fantasy /smut, movies get stuck in superhero hell, tv turns into all reality schlock and oh wait

Yeah that's the one part of their frustration I agree with. Though half of my problem there is that Disney has historically generally produced less films than other big studios and with their purchase of Fox their monopolization of the entertainment industry just becomes more apparent.

That's because Scorsese name-dropped those films' directors as examples of real cinema or something.

Just saw Thor

Idk, might be a bottom 5 MCU movie. Really did not enjoy it for long stretches. Definitely picked up in the second half, liked the B+W sequence, but... eesh. The humour wasn't even hit and miss, it was miss and miss and miss and then one hit and then miss a few more times. Think I laughed three or four times, and not even like a full laugh, which for a movie with that volume of jokes isn't good.

I felt borderline insulted by it really. It's a difficult thing to explain but it was so determined not to take itself seriously at all that I was like "then why the fuck should I care?" and that works if I'm watching like Scary Movie but sue me for actually having some level of investment

I disagree only in that they did want you to take it seriously, but only on your terms. Like when the movie slows down, it's completely unearned of any respect because it treats it like a clown carnival the rest of the time. Like fuck you when you want to slow the movie down to have the most shallow discussion of love between Thor and Jane. Or you expect us to tragically be shocked that Jane may be dying because the hammer that's trying to protect her is inexplicably killing her now. And absolutely fuck you when you have an army of children clowning on all of Gorr's creations because Thor can just give people his power now, and then want us to be sad at Jane's noble sacrifice and discussion about love that barely makes any sense.

Thor characters have so much more depth to them than they were allowed to have here. They just refuse to let them have any serious discussions or anything to challenge their characters. Just an utterly shallow film in every way when you have fucking Gorr in it who is anything but.

I was wondering how Deadpool would come into the MCU for Deadpool 3, and I came up with a few ideas:

A. His time machine from the end of Deadpool 2 malfunctions and sends him to the MCU.

B. The TVA arrest Deadpool for killing one of his variants in Deadpool 2, and take him to the MCU to face trial. Loki helps him escape, because having an agent of chaos like Deadpool loose would appeal to the God of Mischief, and the movie continues from there.

C. One of Dr Strange's portals appeared in the X-Men universe. Deadpool went through it and found himself in the final battle of Endgame, where he had so much fun killing Thanos' minions that he refused to go home afterwards.

D. Deadpool breaks the fourth wall to explain that he quit X-Men after Disney bought Fox, but Kevin Feige persuaded him to come back with a briefcase full of money. Only after signing the contract did Deadpool find the money was prop money and not legal tender, so he's making Deadpool 3 to raise some real money.

E. There's no explanation as to how or why Deadpool's in the MCU now, he just is.

This won't happen but I'd love for Deadpool 3 to involve his universe being destroyed because of multiverse badness happening, and he manages to escape into the MCU by the end. Have it be something of a last hurrah for the Fox X-Men movies, get as many of the old actors as you can for cameos.

Magneto transcends just being a villain. He doesnt have to be the primary antagonist of the movie, but you cant introduce mutants and Xavier without introducing Magneto too. Or at least you shouldnt, I think.

same thing with Doom. The FF movie doesnt need him to be the main villain, but they should introduce him into the universe as soon as possible. Both of these guys are the sort to show up in stuff that isnt just their heroes movies.

Felt similarly. When I said earlier I felt Rachel McAdams held the movie together in the middle I meant more her performance was enough to keep me invested through a weak second act. Not that the character herself necessarily did much, she was little more than a glorified Mrs. Exposition. And yet that was still more fleshed out than the first movie. It's more my eyes were opened to a popular actress I haven't seen much of before since it has been forever since I saw her Sherlock Holmes movies (incidentally with Tony Stark and Yon-Rogg as the leads!) and I've never seen stuff like Mean Girls or Red Eye.
