MCU Fan Show - Marvel Studios commentary

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

1:05 Gio

How did the What If? animation style look in your opinion, did you like it? And with what little you have seen, does it look like each episode will have a similar style or look different?

2:20 Woo S Kim

Between the Inhumans and Iron Fist Sean, which  would you rather see a Marvel Studios Disney Plus show and or a Marvel Cincematic Universe film first and why?

3:03 Linc

I keep reading that Netflix has the rights to their character catalogue for 2 more years, but my understanding is that it's not, nor has it ever been, exclusive, meaning Disney could start using their characters anytime they wished. Is that correct?

5:06 Linc

If they can use MNU characters, who would you like to see MCU start integrating with first?

9:13 Steven 84

Do you think they will build a group similar to the Midnight Sons around Dr. Strange and Wanda, rather than have them rejoin the Avengers? Who can you see fitting with them along with Blade?

10:26 JI Shur

After all the current movies and new announcements, which character is still missing for Sean the hypothetical guy in charge?

12:27 Michael Weaselboy

What role do you think Robert Pattinson would have played had he been cast in the MCU?

13:18 Phil Han

Sean. I don't know if you already went over this or not when Civil War was released, but had 2 questions about that movie. First, what was that pause reaction that T'Challa's ring had to Bucky's arm? Second, with Black Widow saying to Bucky "You can at least recognize me", do you think we'll ever see the history between those two in the movies/disney+? I think it'll be a lot of fun to watch both of them be assassins together.

18:06 Steven 84

What is your top pick for Thunderbolt Ross to show up next: Black Widow, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Black Panther 2, She-Hulk, or all of the above? What role do you think he has in the MCU going forward, and do you think he will be less antagonistic towards superheroes after seeing the Avengers save the universe?

21:11 Giuseppe Vicaretti

Based on the Promotional Photo for WandaVision, could we see some episodes or some scenes or just some scattered shots, all done in Black and White?

21:50 Anthony Lawrey

Do you see the MCU ever taking the dive into the “dark and grounded” format that the DCEU has based its initial films on and if so, what Marvel property do you think would require this style of film to be more faithful to the source material?

28:12 Anthony Lawrey

Do you think we will ever see anyone from The Black Order show up in any of the prequel films and if so, what film and who would you like to see? I’d personally love to see more Corvus Glaive. His brief appearance in Endgame had me wanting more.

29:29 Johnny Call 007

Instead of solo films or an ensemble film how about both? How much sense would it make for Marvel to to make three X films in a single year, starting small with the first one, introducing mutants into the MCU, building momentum in a second movie and concluding a one of their bigger storylines for the third film. Of course other MCU characters would appear because it’s all connected but why couldn’t 2023 (X-23) be the year of the mutants (or 2024 if something for 2023 has already been announced)?

31:53 David Rosen

Do you think the extended release numbers may have contributed in some way to Sony’s decision to end talks with Disney (assuming they were still going on in the first place)?

33:27 BrentacPrime 

Do you think the MCU will be able to reference Spider-Man at all going forward? For example; if Happy is in another movie can he reference May?

37:44 Kerry Vanderberg

Since you're such a big Hulk fan, would you want to see Marvel try making a Hulk series on Disney plus? Since they are sort playing with the dynamic of television by making these "event" series rather than ongoing series with seasons 1-3 or whatever, maybe they could play with the episode count. How about at 3-4 episode Hulk series? That might help maintain the VFX budget in a reasonable place instead of a 6-8 episode. Do you think something like that would be possible and worth exploring?

40:01 Kerry Vanderberg

While I'm personally still sort of uninterested in seeing Deadpool brought into the MCU, I did enjoy Josh Brolin's performance as Cable. Now that Thanos is "dusted," would you like to see Brolin's Cable brought into the MCU as mutants are introduced?

41:03 David Rosen

Do you think that End Game and Far From Home both releasing extended versions of their movies at the end of their runs will become the new “end credits scene” for Marvel Studios going forward in that it will become a trend we should just expect from a Marvel movie? And do you think this could also become a larger trend in the movie industry that other studios will use to try to copy?

43:31 Steven 84

What would you say to another announcement event in October at the El Capitan to round out the full plans for Phase 4? There are still some pretty huge plans they could be holding back for 2022, like a title for Black Panther 2, a director and release date for Fantastic 4, and that third 2022 movie. There could even be another Disney + series they are waiting to make a big splash with. Would this still leave them with plenty of casting announcements and footage to use to have a big presence at ComiCon 2020?

46:55 Godless Cowboy

Despite Marvel having literally hundreds of super-hero characters in their comic catalogue at their disposal, do you think there will ever come a time when a completely new super hero will be introduced into the MCU without them appearing in the comics first? Personally I think if would great to watch a Marvel film without having any preconceived notions of how a character should be portrayed and having no idea of how their story will unfold.

50:26 Brett Heier

After watching Spiderman Homecoming for literally the 12th time, one of the things I most appreciate about the movie is the soundtrack. I think it's way underrated. I know james Gunn handpicks the soundtrack for the guardians movies, does jon watts do the same thing? Also, the editing of the music is really well done, like when peter opens his locker or when the vulture opens the door the music stops very abruptly to bring you back to reality. How do they decide when and how to do that and how important do you think soundtracks are to films in general? Thanks for all you do Sean!

54:55 Robert Reineke

Hi Sean. With a revisionist take on superheroes like The Boys seeming to have developed a following, HBO's Watchmen coming up, and Joker just taking home the big prize at the Venice Film Festival, does Marvel have to consider evolving their films a bit in a post-Endgame world to keep up with current trends or risk starting to look a bit old fashioned? Or if it's not broke, don't fix it the strategy going forward? Comics have evolved with the times, so how does Marvel manage it while on top?

0:31 Alex Ward

Do you think the title Doctor Strange: In the Multiverse of Madness is a nod to the HP Lovecraft novel "In the Mountains of Madness"? If so, do you think we could see some Lovecraftian-inspired horror in the Nightmare realm and others, such as Cthulhu and the like? 

Similarly, do you think we'll see Shuma-Gorath show up? He's a pretty Lovecraft-esque Doctor Strange character.

1:33 Steven 84 and Gio

(Steven) Some noticed that Black Panther 2 was announced for May 2022, while Marvel’s February 2022 date was skipped over. Do you think the film for this date was not part of the presentation at D23 because that film will be an adult leaning film like Blade or Deadpool, and they didn’t want to send the message to younger fans at a Disney event that they should get their parents to let them see it?

(Gio) Wouldn't the February release be further along in development? Do you believe there is a reason to keep that one hidden? If it was a sequel I don't see why not just reveal it, unless it's a brand new franchise. MS has been taking that approach with introducing brand new franchises early in the year (CM, BP, Shang-Chi). If it is a brand new franchise for MS, who would you guess?

7:42 Anthony Lawrey

I can’t be the only one that’s confused on the plan for WandaVision. D23 confirmed that Darcy Lewis and Jimmy Woo will be in the series, SDCC confirmed Monica Rambeau and IMDB says that John Walker and Sharon Carter are in it as well...how? What’s the story here?

10:09 Phil Han

Sean. Any word on if the Disney+ shows are going to be like Netflix or the way DC does it on their service? Will all the episodes be released at once for each series, or one episode a week?

10:48 Kerry Vanderberg

Up until Endgame, the movies mostly took place in real-time, but now they have the 5 year time jump. What are the benefits that you think this provides for the storytelling in the MCU?

14:42 David

Greetings Sean. I found myself pleasantly surprised to be snapped out of my Spider-Man funk by the casting announcement of Kit Harington as Dane Whitman, a.k.a. The Black Knight, in Eternals. With not having the richest comic book history, I’m excited to see what Marvel Studios will do with this character as I think he has a great deal of potential. As he is not himself an Eternal, I’m curious what you think his role will be in the film.

16:23 Zack Butson

How well do you think the news of Spidey not being in the MCU has/will permeate the general audience? Will the moviegoing public still go to Spidey movies thinking they are part of the MCU, will the “in association” intro be really be enough? Do you think a dip in box office should be expected?

23:49 Linc

Is it time that we start calling the MCU the "Marvel Studios Universe", now that the "C", for "Cinematic" is going to rapidly become less relevant, as the next 3 years gives us 5 movies, so 11ish hours in the cinema, and 8 series, so 60ish hours of home entertainment, rivalling the cinematic hours to date?

25:57 Mookie Johnson

Do you think that Disney and Sony could work out a smaller agreement for a character like Kraven to show up in Black Panther 2, or maybe another Spider-Man villain show up in other MCU film or have the current state of the Spider-Man talks proven that impossible?

29:26 Anthony Lawrey

Let’s say Sony/Marvel don’t strike a deal and Spider-Man 3 is only under control by Sony. What is it that scares you so much about the fate of Spider-Man 3? I understand the trust issues with Sony’s portrayal of the character in the past has something to do with it but I’m trying to set that aside.

35:29 Mookie Johnson

Hypothetically,  If Sony  and Disney strike  a Spider-Man deal within a few months, what's your best guess for when it hits theaters based on available information?

35:58 Cory Kostiuk

Hey Sean hope all is well. With the deal between Sony and Disney over for the time being do you think Sony can use the Disney designed Spiderman suit? Also how do you thinking Spiderman will go about getting his suits without access to Stark tech?

38:17 David Rosen

If we don’t get captain marvel 2 before the premiere of Ms Marvel, how do you see them going about making the connection between those two characters considering how little earth has seen of captain marvel so far?

41:29 Cory Kostiuk

Hey Sean what are your thoughts on a Moon Knight and Deadpool team up movie?

42:05 Ed

Assuming there are going to be kids in WandaVision, would you expect those kids to be Wiccan and Speed, or Viv and Vic? Or even different kids entirely?

43:27 Linc

Would you rather see the X-Men come into the MCU in a splashy all in one film, or slowly introduce mutants in, and unite them under Xavier later, allowing an Avengers-esque culmination in an actual Uncanny X-Men movie? Or a third option?

46:12 BrentacPrime

I've seen reports of a tug of war going on for Jon Watts between the MCU and Sony. If you were given the choice to pick his next projext, would you want him to stay on Spider-Man to keep as much consistency for Holland's movies as possible, or would you prefer to have him stay in the MCU but on a new project?

49:23 BrentacPrime 

When Kamala Kahn is introduced but isn't an inhuman, do you think they would retcon that in the comics? Part of me wonders if they will have her be a mutant and join the X-Men.

50:14 Mookie Johnson

Who would you pick to lead a Champions/ Young Avengers team based on current outlook?

52:10 Gio

Do you mind going into a bit more detail on the Red Guardian costume from the BW footage? From how little you saw of it how does the costume compare to the Captain America costumes, since RG is Russia’s answer to CA, or also to the comic books?

53:05 Gio

Who do you believe or want to see as the antagonist in WandaVision and why? 

54:23 Gio

Whenever the X-Men are introduced, to give it some variety and to make it a bit different from the Fox X-Men, do you think they would opt for X-23 (Laura Kinney) as the MCU Wolverine instead of Logan?
