Spoilers Marvel Cinematic Universe spoiler-heavy speculation thread
- Thread starter bbjeg
- Start date
And the casts of the various Netflix shows or Inhumans? Don't get me wrong I'm sure that many people couldn't attend due to prior commitments but it just seems to me more than coincidental that no-one from the small screen were in attendance.
Disney has revealed some new Marvel attractions that they will be adding to their Paris, Hong Kong, and Florida parks.
A little disappointed they don't have anything more for Disneyland since that is the park I have the best chance of actually getting to.

Lego is releasing a large Hulkbuster set with 1363 pieces and Iron Man mark 43 minifigure, costing $120, and will be available March 3. The set is so large, the minifigure fits inside the head of the Hulkbuster.
Where is Ed Norton??!
probably down in a sewer somewhere
Devil Dinosaur and Moon Girl. Really?

Devil Dinosaur and Moon Girl. Really?
I gather the comic is pretty popular and well-regarded. And it's no weirder than Squirrel Girl getting a live-action show. Plus Runaways has a dinosaur.
I've never heard of either of them. Seems like they're scraping at the bottom of the barrel but they still haven't gotten to some of the good second-tier characters like Moon Knight, She-Hulk, and Captain Britain (assuming Marvel has the rights on him, I'm not sure about the ownership there).
I mean film rights. He has strong connections to Spider-Man and the X-Men (via Excalibur) so I'm not sure who is allowed to use him.
It's nice to see an animation project that isn't another iteration of Spider-Man or trying to directly capitalize tie-in with whatever movie is currently out (not that a Black Panther animated series wouldn't be interesting and probably in the works).
I think a good chunk of the appeal just lies in that great cover for issue #1.
Seems a good choice for taking advantage of the medium, a lot of the characters suggested by others seem like good candidates for live action whereas this one would probably be a challenge and may be better realized as a cartoon.

It's a book that sells well with Scholastic, so its target audience is exactly the people who make this cartoon. It's a book I've read from time to time on Unlimited. While the main character, Lunella, can be somewhat unlikeable at times, it exudes charm. Think of Devil Dinosaur as basically a Clifford the Big Red Dog. My quibbles with Lunella aside, it's also great having a story with an intelligent, young, black, female role model.Devil Dinosaur and Moon Girl. Really?

So I was rewatching X-Men Apocalypse today and I had a thought...
Does anyone think it’s possible now that 20th Century Fox is owned by Disney that instead of straight rebooting X-Men as we are pending yet another film into its canon; they keep the actors cast and storyline? I for one am sick of multiple reboots (looking at you Sony/Spider-Man although Homecoming was great). Think about it...they basically rebooted the timeline with Days of Future Past...and since then they’ve only touched the 80s, an untapped portion of MCU really with no intrusions as of yet by he current MCU heroes, it won’t really conflict with current MCU lore. We could check in on the XMen as of now in Phase 4. Only hiccup is obviously Quicksilver. Thoughts? Too much to resolve intergration wise?

That's always a possibility, but there's no way to know. It doesn't seem like the more likely prospect, since the folks at Marvel would probably want free rein to do their own version of it, as they did with Spider-Man. But it can't be definitively ruled out either.
Devil Dinosaur has been around since the '70s, but Moon Girl was created just a few years ago.
Devil Dinosaur was original paired with an ape like creature called Moon Boy, before teaming up with Lunella.
I still think it would be a bit odd to just suddenly dump Mutants into the MCU and try to pass them off as always having been around. It would be especially weird if we include AoS, which pretty clearly treats people with natural superpowers, like The Inhumans, as a new phenomenon.
I'd also rather see the MCU creators get a completely clean slate, so they aren't limited by what the Fox people have done.

I would like that they keep the entire X-Men universe as is and cross over by either having an Inferno type cross over event with a gateway between multiverses or if not demons, something left over from Thanos ripping reality a new one.
I've made the argument that New Mutants should tackle Inferno (it really should have been an Ilyana-centric story to begin with, but I digress). If the idea is to do different brands of horror for each movie, Inferno can be an Evil Dead horror-comedy with household objects coming alive and all that.
