MCU Fans: are we watching the Netflix shows prior to the release of Daredevil Born Again?

I have watched all of the Netflix MCU shows, but it has been many years since the viewing. My partner hasn't seen any of them, but we are both "Disney Adults" who really enjoy the MCU. How vital do you think it is to make sure we catch up on the OG before the reboot? I'm sure the new show will be structured in a way that you don't HAVE to have seen the originals but I'm thinking that we love Easter Eggs etc so it would be best to refresh the memory but am torn over whether to just watch Daredevil and The Defenders or all 5 series in story-chronological order. Just looking for advice and curious how others are approaching it. Thanks!

The Falcon pretty much solo’d Spider-Man in Civil War

Alright it was more of a draw, but in the big fight scene, Falcon gets a big hit on Spidey and uses Redwing to throw him into a beam and out of the fight. He doesn’t win, but he does a hell of a lot more than Winter Soldier. With some time to prepare for his webs, it could have gone better. It seems Falcon and Redwing’s speed was enough to catch Spiderman off guard which is impressive.

What other Falcon feats make him appear more strong than most would expect or remember?

If Marvel and Universal didn't come to a deal with using The Hulk, who would Marvel have used in The Avengers?

Basically the title. At the time, there was an Ant-Man movie stuck in development hell, Fiege wanted to do Black Panther but got pushback from the other Marvel executive at the time.

Which Character do you think Marvel would have chosen? Maybe they don't even have a solo movie before The Avengers and are introduced in that movie.

Mcu gods question.

Some questions regarding them.

  1. what do you guys think is their origin in mcu?(P.S I know that in the comics gaea spawned every pantheon creator gods and is thors mother, i know that but this is specifically for mcu).

  2. Other than Greek gods, Norse gods, The enead, God bast and Amatsumikaboshi with Shinto gods, are all other pantheons going to in background doing nothing and twiddle thumbs.

Will other pantheons play some role in mcu?

  1. Also what were all gods other than thor and Norse gods doing in mcu. Being useless? Did they ever help the people that worshipped them.( I know that by infiniy game many Norse gods were dead, also in the comics Thanos trapped all gods in ashard using infinity gauntlet so atleast comics had an explanation).

Renew Hawkeye

The first season was really good and they can continue it for years because it was received really well and it's really grounded so they can do it on a low budget.

Questions about connections between animated universes

1960s: Are/Could The Marvel Superheroes (1966), Spider-Man (1967), and Fantastic Four (1967) set in the same continuity?

1970s: Could Spider-Woman (1979) and The (New) Fantastic Four (1978) be connected?

1980s: Is there anything against Pryde Of The X-Men (1989) being set in the same continuity as Spider-Man (1981), Spider-Man And His Amazing Friends (1981), and The Incredible Hulk (1982), as the aforementioned are all set in the same continuity.

2000s: Is it possible that X-Men: Evolution (2000), Spider-Man: The New Animated Series (2003), Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes (2006), and Iron Man: Armored Adventures (2009) all being set in the universe?

Also: Could the live action The Amazing Spider-Man (1977) and The Incredible Hulk (1977) be set in the same universe?

Question about the timeline of Thor

Just rewatched Ragnarok for the first time in a while and while watching I was curious how some events came together. Thor and Loki clearly did not know who Hela was, meaning she must have been imprisoned before they existed. Hela also killed all but one Valkyrie, which happened before she was imprisoned. Thor said that he wanted to be a Valkyrie when he was growing up, but if they were all dead then how did he know about them but not about Hela, the reason they were all killed? Also in (I believe) Infinity War Thor said he was thousands of years old, if all the events of Hela happened before he was born then would that make the Valkyrie we see in Ragnarok thousands of years old as well?

Are All The 90s Shows Set In The Same Continuity?

X-Men: The Animated Series (1992)

Iron Man (1994)

Fantastic Four (1994)

Spider-Man: The Animated Series (1994)

The Incredible Hulk (1996)

Silver Surfer (1998)

The Avengers: United They Stand (1999)

X-Men and Spider-Man are set in the same continuity, while Iron Man, Fantastic Four, and The Incredible Hulk are all set in the same continuity, but Iron Man, War Machine and the Fantastic Four all show up in Spider-Man, and Iron Man, Mister Fantastic (Kind of), and Hulk (Kind Of) show up in X-Men '97, so what's in the same universe?

Your Friendly Neighbourhood Spiderman Plothole?

Can someone explain to me how Spider-Man's webs work in this iteration?

There's a big push with the web tanks/shooter setup but in the first episode, when he's first waking up (no suit) he's using his webs (and missing) to pull his glasses to himself.

This is all during cuts of him getting ready (brushing teeth, getting dressed, etc)

Was this just a plothole or can he shoot webs but uses the shooters for swinging?

Iron man 1 foreshadowing Ivan?

Rody and Tony talk about how Rody met someone a while back named Ivan, the same name as the villain in iron man 2. Is this a reference to The Ivan? This happens at about 53:00, "speaking of manned or unmanned you have to talk about the time he guessed wrong at spring break, spring break 1987, that lovely lady what was his name...was ivan?" I think this supports it even more since Ivan has long hair, it could have been a dig at him. So if it is a foreshadowing, what was Ivan doing with Rody in 87??

Geraldine Viswanathan, who plays 'Mel' in Thunderbolts*, when asked if she considers herself to be a 'Songbird'

Geraldine Viswanathan, who plays 'Mel' in Thunderbolts*, when asked if she considers herself to be a 'Songbird', the Marvel superhero alias of Melissa Gold

"I have no idea what you're talking about... Oh, look what you've done. Now, I'm all nervous."

Here is the interview

What I found funny was, the woman besides her is Meredith Hagner, her husband, Wyatt Russell is also on Thunderbolts* as John Walker/U.S. Agent. I think both of them knew something that off limits to general audiences

How and when did "aaand he's standing right behind me isn't he?" become the example of MCU dialogue?

I remember a period of time over the last ten years or so where it felt like that joke was happening a lot in comedy movies and shows, but l don't think it was ever really MCU stuff that used that joke.

Is it because all those other projects that used that joke were being criticized for TRYING to be funny like a MCU movie, and now the original thing that all those movies were trying to be is now remembered for being as corny as the stuff that tried to copy it?

Eternals was a lost chance to look at Thanos's origin and family

Thanos's father ALars was an Eternal, and according to the comics he's part Eternal and part Deviant heritage, the result of an experiment by Alars. So this was an opportunity to look into the origins of Thanos, and how he became the balance-obssessed zealot who snapped half the universe away.

And yet, the filmmakers decided to make the Eternals artificial beings. Just scrap all that fascinating history to keep the Eternals machines who get their memory wiped over and over wherever they go. Arguably, the Eternals are effectively isolated from everyone else in the MCU, and a theme of the film is getting to see the value of others around them so that they can fight for them. But the connection with Thanos could have served as a way to slide them into the MCU, similar to how Klaw's actions in Avengers 2 led to Wakanda's eventual involvement.

And the appearance in the stinger of Thanos's brother Starfox goes nowhere. Is he supposed to be an android also? Was Thanos supposed to be an android? These questions unfortunately may never get an answer at this point.

I've just started watching the new spiderman show but I can't work out if this is supposed to be a Tom Holland spiderman origin story or if its just a new spiderman from the multiverse somewhere.

“You should choose your words more carefully”

And then later that comes into play again, Strange choosing the word "our" when he is serving as a distraction and a trap for Thanos.

That's a little detail I've never seen mentioned on the internet. I'll also point out that correlating scene in Endgame is where the big three confront The Mad Titan. That one I have seen mentioned.

Just thought I'd put that out there

The scrutiny and double standards is exactly why Sam gives back the shield in "Falcon and The Winter Soldier"

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/disney-marvel-captain-america-brave-new-world-politics-1236122701/

Bucky's line "I don't think we realized what it actually meant for a black man to hold the shield" was his sign that he understood the greater scrutiny, racism and double standards that Sam would encounter. Same as the shit Mackie's facing now.

EDIT: Anyone who criticizes FATWS however justly for its faults, can we not give Marvel some credit for hearing our demands and giving us an hourlong loop of Zemo dancing within DAYS of the episode? I mean c'mon that's fan service.

There are people (like me) that just loves the movies and don´t want it to fail.

I just don´t get why people can´t go to the movies without pre-determined opinions about the movies coming out. Brave Nev World looks amazing in all these short clips that are releasing right now and people are slamming it? Look, if you don´t want the movie to succeed, just don´t go watch it. But for heaven´s sake, don´t slam the opinion down the throats on us that genulily belives that this movie will be great. It is the weirdest behaviour. Get some fresh air or something?

I HATE the theory that Andrew’s Spider-Man killed people.

I know Peter is strong, but he’s still Spider-Man. Something like that is too big of a deal to just gloss over.

“I stopped pulling my punches.” ≠ “I killed people.”

I just finished The Marvels, and...

... can't they just ask America Chavez to make a portal to go and look for Monica Rambeau? I guess you could say Fury doesn't know of her existence, but I'd say it's annoying how he has as much information on random people as required by the writer.

I'm sure Strange could cast a spell to pinpoit which universe she's in, even.

What other Heroes think of Sam as the new Captain America?

So now that Brave New World is coming in TWO WEEKS, i have a question that was buried Deep in my Mind that emerged recently, which is: What other Heroes, like Spider Man, Ant Man etc, think of Sam Wilson taking on the Mantle of Captain America and wield the Shield, in Universe.

What do you guys think would be their Thoughts and Reactions?

Am I in the minority of thinking Thunderbolts is a GENIUS idea for Marvel?

Instead of getting a movie that headlines one of our main characters, we getting a film that brings together a bunch of supporting characters that either played a villain or ally in a previous film and I couldn't be more excited. It looks like it'll really showcase how crazy it's gonna be getting these characters to get along and play nice together when they're known for being the leader or fighting solo. I'm so ready. I know I'll love the movie. Also excited that we're finally getting to see what Val's plan is leading up to.

I just kept getting the impression that many marvel fans were not happy about this movie being made or wanting to go see it but I am super stoked about it

Marvel Catch Up

So, my friend has somehow never watched any of the MCU. We made plans to go and watch the new Captain America that’s coming out, because I want to go see it and he wants to finally get caught up. In the next two or so weeks, he plans on catching up, and he knows how much effort he’s going to have to put in to do so. I think the only Marvel movie he’s ever watched is Black Widow. I made a list of the bare essential movies I think he should watch, which include these:

Iron Man Thor Captain America: The First Avenger The Avengers Captain America: The Winter Soldier Guardians of the Galaxy (Optional?) Avengers: Age of Utron Captain America: Civil War Doctor Strange (Optional?) Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (Optional?) Thor: Ragnarok Avengers: Infinity War Captain Marvel Avengers: Endgame The Falcon and The Winter Soldier

Our other friend thinks that he should watch every single movie until the end of Phase 3, or he shouldn’t watch any at all and should just go into the new Captain America blindly. I can’t see the logic in this, but he has been a Marvel fan for longer than me, so I want other opinions. Do you think any are missing from this list, and what do you think about the ‘optional’ ones which I am considering excluding to make it less harsh? (Baring in mind I will be watching more than a quarter of these with him and will be there to explain anything that doesn’t make sense without completely spoiling the movies he’s missed). Or, do you think he should watch every single one? I know that’s a lot, but he’s genuinely considering it and is open to both. All thoughts/opinions are welcome.

Can we talk about how the 2 biggest so called “ narcissist” sacrificed the most.

I recently did a rewatch of the infinity saga, and I found it really funny that Loki and Tony are both considered the biggest narcissists throughout the entire series and yet at the end of both their stories, they sacrifice the most compared to any other character. And it’s not even their ending in which they sacrifice the most if you look throughout the story, there’s multiple times where Tony “ lays on the wire”, and even Loki does selfless things and service of other people. I mean, Loki ruled Asgard properly the entire time he faked being Odin. but that’s just my opinion lmk what yall think.

I love the concept of WandaVision

Recently, I rewatched WandaVision and I can't stress enough how much I love the concept behind this show. It's brilliant.

I'm not American but I grew up watching American sitcoms. It's such a huge part of my life.

Sitcoms are absurd and funny but, when needed, can also be deep and poignant.

Moreover, they are culturally important because, with their absurdity, they can truly highlight the sheer ridiculousness of Life.

In short, I love sitcoms and what they represent.

So, while I'm not sure I liked the last two episodes, I love the idea behind WandaVision.

I find it bold. I find it creative. But, most of all, I think it's a beautiful homage to sitcoms and their importance in the history of American television.

Your Friendly Neighbourhood Spider-Man Bootstrap Paradox Theory

Spoilers Ahead (obviously)

I wanna preface this by saying Ive only seen the first ep so far. So in the first episode of YFNHSM we see Dr Strange come through a portal fighting a version of Venom (Kraven?) and that's what brings the spider that bites Peter. I think that probably in the last episodes of the season, the villain will be this version of Venom and Peter will go to Dr Strange for help after remembering seeing him defeat Venom in the first ep. Strange won't remember this but agrees to help anyway but during the course of the fight, he opens a portal to send Venom through but accidentally sends them back in time to the first episode through which both Strange and an Oscorp spider both go which causes the creation of Spider-Man. Strange seemed to recognise the school and remark that he wasn't supposed to be there so I think this has a good chance of happening.

What do you think?

TLDR: The villain of the final eps will be Venom, Peter will go to Dr Strange for help who will accidentally send Venom back in time causing the scene we see in ep one and inadvertently cause the spider-bite making spiderman a whole time loop bootstrap paradox.
