I love Ben's response to M'Baku. Unflappable.
I wonder why the Talokans are in a desert of all places...

A quick search tells me that Walt Disney's "Fantasia" 1940, was the first movie to have no opening credits, followed by "2001: A Space Odyssey" in 1968.
Also of interest: Marvel is still running a livestream of the countdown clock (whereas before it was gone after the teaser release). Are we going to get more cast chairs today?
The original announcement (or was it all just rumors come true?) was for four teasers and I haven't heard anything more than that.
Current speculation (or heavy rumor?) is we'll get a full trailer with the Super Bowl. If that's true, I imagine we won't be getting anymore teasers.

IIRC, George Lucas got fined for putting the main titles (aside from the title card itself) at the end of Star Wars, but in the decades since, it's become the default practice.
Fascinating. I love a good puzzle.
I wonder if this means all four of those teasers aren't actually footage from the film, but that seems unlikely for the last one because of the Thing CGI.
I also wonder why the Instagram post was deleted. Or if that's part of the puzzle...

It was actually a fine by the Directors Guild of America, and on ESB. Lucas got a waiver of that requirement for the first film but for whatever reason the DGA didn’t want it happening a second time so they fined both Lucas and Irvin Kershner. Lucas paid Kershner‘s fine and then promptly quit the DGA. No idea how they handled the situation for ROTJ.
Yeah, I was wondering about that too.Here's the YouTube link:

I guess we must have gotten this one instead of the Doom one people were expecting. Or is the Doom one going to the full trailer?
Hired a non-DGA director to do it, for a start.
Producer Brad Winderbaum about VisionQuest on the Official Marvel Podcast (quotes via SuperHeroHype):
“VisionQuest is so rewarding for fans of the WandaVision trilogy, but also fans of the MCU, especially the Infinity Saga,” he said. “What’s amazing about Terry Matalas is [it’s] like talking to someone who grew up at Marvel. The guy knows the lore as well as any of the producers here. He manages a way to pull from the MCU mythology in such clever ways that don’t feel like homework, don’t feel like old ideas that you have to remember, but feel like fresh ideas that just pull from the same rich well of concepts that the universe has kind of put in the toy box for us.
“Agatha, in many ways, plays with themes of motherhood in a way that VisionQuest plays with themes of fatherhood. The entire trilogy is focused, in many ways, on parenthood as a concept.
“…[VisionQuest] is really about fathers and sons. And, specifically, about three generations of grandfather-father-son. Can a man who had an abusive father be a good father himself? It gets very emotional at times. And it’s exciting. It’s an exciting adventure. When you see Vision kicking ass and you get all that Marvel fun and adventure, it’s all done on the backdrop of real human stakes and emotion, which makes the show feel very grand. It’s like an adrenaline rush, it’s emotional, and it really delivers on a lot of things that I hope people have come to expect from Marvel.”
Sounds pretty promising. Hopefully we'll get a premiere date and trailer soon.
New Avengers cartoon in the works
Well hopefully with Jeph Loeb gone it will be better than the last one
Well, that's the spin from the studio at least. And they wouldn't lie.Praise be! The Matalas has done it again!
