Recomposing The MCU

Not sure if this is the right sub for this, but I think this needs to be heard and done. I absolutely love Ramin Djawadi's Iron Man composition. It perfectly suits the character. I love Iron Man 1. It is, in my opinion, the best MCU movie. So, way back when, Iron Man 2 came out, and I was hyped for it. I watched it, but something didn't feel quite right. Don't get me wrong, loved the movie, but it just felt off. Now to Captain America. Loved it. Not as much as Iron Man 1, but loved it nonetheless. Writing was great, and, again, the composition and themes, chef's kiss. And then a few years later, Captain America: The Winter Soldier comes out. Now this one felt way less "off" than Iron Man 2, but I didn't know why. Avengers comes round, and my mind is blown, but, a tad less blown than what it could have been. This trend kept going: Thor 1; banger, Thor: The Dark World; way less so, (more to do with writing but I'm getting to my point), Captain America: Civil War, meh. And then way into the future, Guardians Of The Galaxy 2 comes out, and I'm like "Dude, this one doesn't feel off". Do you know why? The music. Guardians Of The Galaxy kept the themes through to the sequel. Barely any other MCU films carry leitmotifs between sequels, The Avengers Theme notwithstanding. This sucks. I hate it so much. My favourite franchise, Star Wars, has some of the best musical thematic continuity and it is delicious, Someone uses the force? We'll play the Force Theme. Leia's on screen? We'll play her theme. The heros are watching the Empire do anything menacing? We'll play Imperial March. (Also goes for Darth Vader as that basically became his theme). MARVEL DOES NOT DO THIS. Every bloody movie they hire another composer who it seems doesn't even watch the original movie to even cough at the leitmotifs. Sorry, I gotta calm down. I don't get why, either, as they're both run by Disney, you'd think they'd share a meeting or something. What I would pay to see, and I know this is a herculean task, is a complete recomposing of the MCU, taking the best leitmotifs and themes from each characters' movies and then using them throughout, as Marvel should have done from the get go. Unfortunately, I have no musical talent, and cannot myself see this through.

MTL:DR

I want someone to rewrite the MCU's music so that leitmotifs and themes have continuity across movies.

SPIDER MAN PLOT IDEA

if they plan to put harry and norman osborn in the main mcu timeline they should first establish harry as peter's friend and turn him into iron patriot then peter finds out about the truth. same with norman. During the movie peter is fighting norman however during the final battle green goblin dies but the person insied the suit is actually harry (he was kidnnepd and basically trapped inside the goblin suit). By the credit scene we see iron patriot revealing himself to the world, this time the man inside is norman. then sets up dark avengers.

Slight Endgame rewrite

My only issue with Infinity War and Endgame was that Quill was snapped. Sure, everyone hated him after getting emotional and ruining the plan. But to be fair, the Russo's played the Guardians (aside from Rocket and Nebula) to be completely mindless oafs with little to no education. Don't get me wrong, Drax and Mantis are humorously ignorant, but Quill was raised under the Ravagers, semi intelligent thieves. Trust me, he's no Einstein, but he ain't Homer Simpson either. Quill getting a redemptive arc and some other slight tweaks would make Endgame even better in my opinion. Let's begin.

  1. Quill survives the snap. He's emotionally distraught that most of his friends are gone, and him, Nebula, and Tony use the Benetar to get to Earth sooner than they do originally because Quill knows all the kinks of his ship.

  2. After coming to earth and getting time to properly mourn his mother and reunite with his grandfather, he becomes an absolute slob. He loses himself, becoming a middle aged man who lives with his grandpa, eating pizza and playing video games all day in the basement. Maybe he visits Thor every now and then and they share each other's pain. Seeing Quill be such a wreck makes him realize he could lose himself too, so he gives up being a hero, but never loses his physique just to mess with Quill.

  3. The 5 year gap goes mostly the same. Only change here is that Thor didn't kill Thanos, instead he in his weakened state is kept at the compound and tortured daily for any information on how to bring the others back.

  4. Scott still discovers time travel via the Quantum Realm and the Avengers get the idea to go back in time and steal the Infinity Stones. They plan out where to nab the stones, but Thor isn't too drunk to remember that the Tesseract was on Asgard along with the Aether. We then get the reveal that Tony has recreated Vision - without the mind stone - but he doesn't remember anything.

  5. Cap, Scott and Bruce go to NY in 2012 to get the mind and time stones respectively. Thor, Rocket, Clint and Nat go to Asgard in 2013 to get the Aether and Tesseract. Quill and Nebula go to 2014 to get the Orb, and Tony and Rhodes go to Vormir. The trip is successful and goes as usual, except Rhodes sacrifices himself instead of Natasha. At the compound, Thanos escapes his confinement after coming to the same realization that 2014 Thanos did: As long as there are those that remember what was, there will be those who are unable to accept what can be. He overpowers Vision, who is controlling the time machine while the Avengers are gone, and reprograms him to bring back his army from 2012 along with Gamora, Nebula and the black order. Thanos reunites with his old companions and gives them the plan.

  6. Upon their return, the Avengers create a new infinity gauntlet and Thor snaps everyone back. After a miscommunication, the black order destroys the compound after Thor snaps. The compound is blown to smithereens and by some miracle no one is seriously hurt. Thanos' army searches for the gauntlet while Clint and Nat keep it hidden, and Thanos shows up to fight the trio. Quill joins, and Thanos barely manages to beat them. Before anyone can be killed, Strange and Wong arrive and the battle of earth begins.

  7. Nebula kills her past self, Quill fights Gamora but manages to convince her to turn on Thanos. Bruce fully Hulks out and gives us the fight we've been aching for. Tony wields the gauntlet after outsmarting Thanos, but is unable to use it. Steve and Thor hold onto Tony, sharing the power of the stones and paralleling the Guardians. Thanos and his army are erased from existence after Tony snaps, and they return the Stones. He and Steve retire, making Sam and Peter official Avengers. Thor in a way becomes Odin, founding Asgard on earth as an official nation and becoming the protector of the nine realms. The Avengers remain intact, the Guardians return to space, and Tony and Steve secretly steal some Pym Particles to have one last ride - into the future and eventual past.

Rewriting MCU phases 4-6 part 1 phase 4

I as many of you have probably felt the decline of the MCU maybe not everything has been bad but it is not what it was and here is what I would do to try and keep the magic alive for another saga

Project 1

Wandavision (TV show/10 episodes)

(I would keep this mostly the same but I would add an episode featuring Dr strange and morro trying to stop her before she goes to the dark side but she kills mordo and warns strange not to interfere with her again)

Project 2

Captain America 4: legacy ( movie)

This would be like falcon and the winter soldier just expanded on better here is the major things I would change the flag smashers are considered terrorists and Carly is karl and has a super suit I would keep zemo but there would be no power broker Sharon would be in the movie that is just not a storyline I am going with also instead of wakanda giving same his final suit it is steve rogers in his last appearance maybe ever giving him the suit )

Project 3

Loki ( TV show/6 episodes)

( I would keep this exactly the same )

Project 4

Shang chi and the legend of the ten rings ( movie)

( I would also keep this movie the same except by the end of the movie he is made into an official avenger )

Project 5

Eternals ( TV show/ 8 episodes)

( I like the idea of this but there are to many characters to introduce in just one movie so I would do the same exact thing as the movie did just in a TV show and expand on everything more )

Project 6

Spider-man: no way home ( movie )

( this movie was perfect I would keep it exactly the same)

Project 7

Mrs Marvel ( TV show/ 8 episodes)

( this show would be mostly the same I would just make the government the main villians and make kamala find out she is a mutant and her and her friends unlock powers as well )

Project 8

Doctor strange: and the multiverse of madness ( movie)

( I would keep this movie very similar to the one in real life but Wanda's turn to the darkside would be more gradual and slow burned and she wouldn't kill anyone until the illuminati scene the illuminati line up I would have is ( Mr fantastic, professor x, black bolt, superior iron man, captain Carter, vision variant, mordo variant) she would kill them all but only because they have already planned to kill her but she still does it and the movie ends the same way with Doctor strange being took over by a third eye)

Project 9

Moon knight ( TV show/ 10 episodes)

( I would keep this very similar to the show but add some episodes to include jake Lockly as another personality and to reintroduce robbie reyes ghost rider into the MCU )

Project 10

Avengers: secret invasion ( movie )

( I think a big problem with phase 4 is it has no direction so I think an avengers movie could fix that so this movie is the secret invasion plot line captain Marvel comes to earth finding that skrull insurgents are on earth hiding getting ready to strike and they do they kill the president of the United States buy that doesn't call for the avengers to assemble yet just captain America and war machine is lookin into it at first till captain Marvel finds out that they are making super skulls that can mimic the powers of heros and villians and this is enough to assemble a team so the line up is ( captain America, war machine, captain Marvel, white vision, ant man, wasp, hulk, Shung chu) And they try and form a team not totally trusting each other since any of them could be skrulls and it turns out the Maria Hill was an evil skrull the entire time she has been on screen Maria Hill doesn't exist and she kills talos and jimmy wu she Also reveals that there is one more skrull among the avengers once that Maria skrull is killed by nick fury and it turns out it is war machine but he is a good skrull and has been one since after Iron man 3 and he sacrifices him self but now you have real rhodes and he becomes Iron patriot again and one gravid becomes a super skrull they have to ban together to stop and kill all of them going forward this is the line up for now and all the heroes go there separate ways after the movie )

Project 11

The mighty Thor (movie)

( this movie would be the plot of Thor 4 but alot less humor sif would be a way bigger character becoming a secondary love interest throughout the movie also quill goes along with Thor to help him I would kill more gods as well like the grandmaster and the collector would be killed and there would be a massacre at mount olympus Zeus and many other gods as well as korg and valkyrie would die after this Thor would be as serious as he was in endgame no more jokes and he would go God king mode against gore and kill him with the help of Jane, sif a quill Jane would still die in the end as well and Thor would finally become king with maybe sif becoming a queen in the future so just alot more death would have been good also he dosen't get a kid in the end )

Project 12

Hawkeye ( TV show/ 9 episodes)

( I would keep this show similar but king pin would just be the main villian of the show and would show up way sooner also daredevil would be reintroduced as well into the MCU and Echo would be introduced as well as yelena she would get a whole backstory Episode which would show what we know from the black widow movie and that is it and Echo would not yet turn on fisk not yet believing the truth )

And that was my idea of a MCU phase 4 hope you enjoyed and stay tuned for phase 5

My rewrite of Age of Ultron (some ideas

My version of Age of Ultron would be an Avengers/X-Men crossover, in which the Avengers and the X-Men have to deal with Magneto and his forces. Magneto reunites with Captain America, whom he met as a child when he liberated a concentration camp he was in. Cap suggests that Magneto turn over a new leaf, but he just laughs it off. Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, however, are intrigued and start to question their roles as supervillians.

Like the comics, Hank Pym builds Ultron as an acceptance gift for putting him and his wife into the Avengers, and unlike the movie, Ultron is a lot scarier, completely deprived of comedy.

When Quicksilver dies, Magneto is heartbroken and pissed, so much that he tries to kill Magneto with his own hands. But of course, he is impervious. Magneto and his followers then decide to help both the X-Men and the Avengers to stop Ultron.

Vision is created by Pym as well, but not from Jarvis.

Also, tone down the gags.

Any other ideas to go with it?

My Doctor Strange 2 Rewrite Idea

I love the movie we got, one of my favorite marvel movies, but I was thinking about what I would have expected when the movie was first announced, because it went through rewrites and stuff.

Disclaimer: I'll admit that I know more about Wanda (comic and movie/tv wise) than I do of Strange, Mordo, and Wong, so I did not know how to write too much of their movie stories without it sounding TOO biased, so I stuck to Wanda's characterization here. Also, there may be some inconsistencies here since this is a quick draft, but I will do my best to fill in anything in the replies. This movie will have Christine in it, I just do not know how. I also do not know if America would be in it.

Mordo is tracking down and killing a nameless wizard, until he turns around and sees the multiverse opening up in the sky (the scene from the end of nwh) making him realize that traveling the multiverse is real, therefore he goes to see Wanda, as she is one of the most powerful magic users alive and he wants her to help him, and when he shows up at her house, she immediately senses him and stops him in his tracks. He explains about the multiverse to her and that he knows there may be a universe where she can be happy (not mentioning her children, just general happiness). She says she'll think about it, Cut to a scene where Strange is sitting down with her and she is telling him everything that mordo said. Wanda and Strange team up as Wong overhears that she is the Scarlet Witch. Steven doesn't remember the multiverse so he tells Wanda it doesn't exist, and Wong doesn't trust the Scarlet Witch, so he tells Wanda it doesn't exist, while he knows it does. In a battle at the end between Mordo and Wanda, it is revealed by Mordo that the multiverse does infact exist and she looks inside of Mordo's mind and sees his memories of the multiverse opening up, angering her while she plays it cool for the last few minutes of the movie, all while being very obviously annoyed at Steven and Wong for lying. (She wasn't able to look inside the mind of Steven because his memories of the multiversal spell were wiped by Wong, as Wong doesn't want Steven risking something like that again. And Wong has his mind "fortified" with a spell that Wanda does not know how to bypass.) Mordo tells her that someone with her strength is easily able to do things like dreamwalking (he explains what it is) especially with the help of the darkhold, which he knows from his own experience reading it. He doesn't know it corrupts anyone so he doesn't tell her that/he doesn't want to tell her.

Some dynamics include Wong not liking or trusting Wanda because of what he's heard of her week in WestView and because he knows how dangerous the Scarlet Witch can be, and Steven doing magic spells that Wanda is easily able to replicate, growing Wanda's magic skills, as well as Steven realizing that he doesn't have to be the best at everything and he actually likes knowing someone able to be as powerful as him (leading to clea), although this also annoys Wong as he doesn't want Wanda learning more spells.

Post credit scene shows Wanda going to Westview and visiting Agatha, while taking her copy of the Darkhold, and leaving it unknown whether Wanda is using it for good or not.

pitch a continuation of Netflix's daredevil and punisher outside the main MCU

Since both these amazing shows were taken far too soon and will probably not be as good under MCU restrictions I'd like to hear pitches for season 4 of daredevil and season 3 of punisher. It may include characters from the MCU that haven't been used as of 2018, such as moon knight, Andrew Garfields Spiderman etc.

My Reimagining of the MCU: Part 2 - Iron Man

Hi, welcome back to Part 2 of my MCU reimagining! This is a continuation of the Spider-Man movie I posted earlier. Here's the second movie of my MCU.

He's invincible.

Phase 1

Iron Man - 2013

Directed by:

Jon Favreau

Starring:

Johnny Depp as Tony Stark

Michael B. Jordan as James Rhodes

Amy Adams as Pepper Potts

Hiroyuki Sanada as The Mandarin

Logan Marshall-Green as Bruno Horgan/The Melter

Keanu Reeves as Happy Hogan

Patrick Stewart as JARVIS

Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury

Taron Egerton as Clint Barton

Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff

Plot:

We open on the inside of a plane, in absolute chaos. A wing is broken and it's quickly descending into the floor. The pilot screams into his radio over the yelling of the passengers. He tries to steer the plane when he sees a red and gold streak fly into the plane, and it stops. We zoom out and Iron Man is holding up the plane, straining as he slowly sets it down. He looks up to see a jet fly away.

"JARVIS, scan that jet." he says.

"Certainly, sir."

Iron Man dives into the sea, and finds a busted missile. A terrorist attack! Must be what that jet was doing... he flips the missile over to reveal a Stark Industries logo. Iron Man grunts. "Shit," he mumbles and tucks it under his arm, before lifting the jet.

We cut to JFK Airport, where Iron Man drops them off and gets into a limo. His suit deforms around him and he leans back in his seat. Tony Stark sighs as he picks up a bottle of champagne and pours a glass.

"Is there ever gonna be a day you don't drink, Mr. Stark?" Harold "Happy" Hogan, Tony's chauffeur looks at him from the rear-view mirror. I want him to be a sassy attendant who helps in his superheroing, like Jeremy Irons' Alfred. This is when Tony's phone rings, playing AC/DC. He picks it up and a tinny voice comes through.

"Mr. Stark? Are you okay? You've been gone a while," says Tony's secretary, Pepper Potts.

"I'm okay, Pepper. I just had to carry a plane across the Mediterranean one-handed, so I'm quite tired."

"Oh, okay. I can take over most of your work so you can sleep."

"No need, no need, I'll just have some coffee."

Tony and Happy get out of the vehicle and walk into Stark Tower, when they see a man with an eyepatch waiting for them. Nick Fury walks up to the two and shakes Happy's hand, but Tony just blows him off.

"I'm not working for you. You can't make me." he says, climbing the stairs. Fury responds,

"I think you should listen."

"Your big pitch for me being in some super-team? Not gonna happen. Go away."

Fury follows him upstairs. "If you join this team, you can assure global security in a way you never had before."

"And I also sign my tech away to SHIELD. That's a mistake I'm not gonna make again." Tony pours himself a glass of wine and drops the missile on his bed. "Fine wine, by the way. You probably had it in your heyday."

Fury scowls as he inspects the missile, seeing the Stark logo. "This is yours?" he asks.

"Yup. JARVIS, scan the serial number."

"It's been filed off, sir. I can't track it. Neither can I track the jet."

"Shit!" the suit envelops Tony once more, and he flies out of the window, leaving Nick Fury alone. He shakes his head and leaves.

We cut to Iron Man entering an Air Force base. "Anybody missing a 747?" he asks, when James Rhodes shows up on a balcony. He walks down the stairs and they greet each other, hugging and shaking hands. Rhodey answers by saying one went missing a few days back. Tony asks if he can trace it, and Rhodey says yes. 747-model 024. Currently being held in China.

Tony turns, surprised. "Why would China steal the property of the US army..? do they want war?"

Rhodey says he doesn't know, but he better come with so Tony doesn't spook them. Tony says, "Well, ever flown private before?"

We cut to a small hangar. Multiple US jets are lined up as two guards keep watch. A suited man with rings on his fingers enters, and the guards bow. We don't see his face. He walks to the jets and surveys them. A man approaches from the other side of the room. Bruno Horgan bows to the man and stands.

"Iron Man knows something's up. He tried to identify the jet." he says.

"It is no matter. In three days, our final play will begin. And then we will rule the world."

We cut back to Tony and Rhodey, while Tony is enjoying the culture Rhodey is focused on the mission. Tony tells him to lighten up while in a bar. Rhodey sighs, and says "One drink". We then get a montage of the friends getting wasted before they wake up in a shoddy motel. Rhodey is passed out on the couch, while Tony is in a bed surrounded by women.

"What the hell happened last night?"

"I can guess."

We cut to a regiment of troops landing in China. A man awaits them in the airfield they landed in. Bruno Horgan's palm glows orange before he tosses a mound of magma at one of them, hitting him square in the face. He launches chunks of magma, blocking the soldiers' guns as he kills them with his magma powers. When it's finished he gets a call and picks up.

"It's done."

"Good. Get back to base."

We see Horgan back in his base. He follows the same suited man, who opens a door in the hangar to reveal a high-tech suit of armor.

"It will filter the magma. Hotter, and solidifies in 5 seconds."

"When is the time at hand?" Horgan asks.

"Tomorrow." the man turns, to reveal the Mandarin. Horgan grins and Mandarin closes the door. "Oh, and... Iron Man is in China. Find him."

Tony wakes up tied to a chair. He struggles against his bonds and wakes to see the whole room messed up. Rhodey lies unconscious before him. Tony tries to wake him, but he's unresponsive. He finds a note on the door.

"Sincerely, the Ten Rings."

We see a montage of Tony researching the Ten Rings while Rhodey is admitted to a hospital. We also see the Ten Rings measuring missiles and fitting them onto jets. The scene ends with a new suit of armor wrapping around Tony as he flies towards the base of the Ten Rings, wearing a variation of the Model 49

He arrives at Ten Rings HQ and busts in, fighting goons when he finally meets The Melter. They fight, and Melter manages to stick Tony's hand to the wall. He struggles against it and manages to break it. Melter asks how, but Tony doesn't respond. Instead he hits Melter with a unibeam, knocking him out. He enters the hangar, where every jet is missing, and only the Mandarin is there. Tony fights with him for a while, with Mandarin using his Ten Rings to damage Tony. Tony ends up winning, but Mandarin says the plan has already been set in motion, and Tony looks around.

"This is a hangar."

"Oh, no, no, no."

Tony runs out and flies back to New York, when he sees two jets flying towards the Empire State Building, armed with missiles. He tries to stop it, but is blasted away by one and hits the side of the building, landing on a car. The missile hits the ESB and takes some off the top. We then cut to a news broadcast reporting on it. It zooms out to reveal more. And more. And more...

Tony holds his helmet, looking at his reflection in it. He failed the nation. The Empire State Building is gone. All because of him.

He failed as Iron Man. It was his fault.

He reaches out for a bottle of beer. But he stops.

Because he was drunk, he failed to catch the jet.

Because he was drunk, he couldn't find the Ten Rings earlier.

Because he was drunk, Rhodey is in hospital.

Because he was hungover, he couldn't stop the attack on New York.

Because he drinks, he's failed as Iron Man.

"Hey, Pepper?"

"Yes, sir?"

"Every last bottle of alcohol. Gone. Capisce?"

We cut to Pepper smiling. "Yes, sir."

We see Iron Man suiting up in this suit and he leaves as some appropriate AC/DC plays. He flies across the ocean, where multiple navy ships are facing off from China and the US respectively. Tony tries to play peacekeeper, and it works for a short while but the tension is too high and the first missile is fired. Tony deflects it and the missiles start coming. He bats them away, trying to stop a conflict before saying 'screw it' and he begins to destroy the ships' control panels.

"Are we all good? Go home. There's not gonna be a war."

Iron Man flies away.

We see a press conference where Tony says Stark Industries will donate towards the reconstruction of the Empire State Building. He states that Iron Man is his bodyguard, but it's not where the movie ends. Instead we get a montage of people looking at Iron Man in the sky, including Spider-Man, all voiced over by Tony.

***

The post-credits sequence sees Tony Stark put down a stack of papers.

"Thanks for agreeing to this. I know you're all space travel."

The man in front of him smiles warmly. "Anything for a friend."

We zoom in on the man's jacket. On it is a large 4.

***

So that's it. Any thoughts or criticisms are welcome and I'd love to know how I can improve. I'm not saying I'm a better writer than anyone and this is just a fun exercise. Hope you enjoyed the read!

My Reimagining of the MCU: Part 1

I just wanna kick this off by saying that I like the MCU. It's put out some of my favorite movies and I just love it to bits. That being said, I think you can do a lot with a connected universe based on the vast cast of Marvel characters and I wanted to try my hand at it.

So here's my MCU.

Phase 1

The Amazing Spider-Man - 2011

Directed by:

Matthew Vaughn

Starring:

Grant Gustin as Peter Parker

Emma Watson as Mary Jane Watson

Josh Hutcherson as Flash Thompson

Wynona Rider as May Parker

Steve Carrell as Ben Parker

Kirk Acevedo as Fancy Dan

Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson as Ox

Logan Marshall-Green as Montana

Raymond Cruz as The Big Man

Plot:

Peter Parker is a teenager who is down on his luck. Socially awkward, scrawny and currently in the process of being hit by a truck by puberty. Constantly being shoved around by popular jock Flash Thompson, Peter absolutely hates school. The only good thing in his life is his kindly Aunt May and his wise Uncle Ben. Ben is an upstanding man with a quick sense of humor that drops little nuggets of wisdom to Peter frequently. One of them is 'with great power comes great responsibility' of course.

Peter comes home one day to see Ben signing something. He asks what it is, and Ben says it's the permission slip for Peter to go on the field trip to Oscorp Labs. Peter is excited and thanks his aunt and uncle. Ben smiles and tells him to have fun.

On the Oscorp trip, Peter is taught about spiders and shown an exhibit of them. The tour guide says that Oscorp have been experimenting with spiders. Flash starts being an asshole and Peter says to knock it off. Flash gets angry and throws Peter into a spider's container, smashing the glass. The spider is undamaged but we see it crawl up Peter's sleeve. Flash is sent away by the teacher (we're setting up Flash to be a good guy on the inside with anger issues that he hides by bullying others) and we zoom in on the spider as it bites Peter's arm.

Peter starts feeling disoriented, and he asks to be excused to the toilet. On the way he runs into Flash who's still mad about what happened. He says that Peter has no one to save him now and throws a punch towards him. Peter's head buzzes, and Flash punches him... only for the punch to do nothing. Flash is confused before Peter runs away. Flash gives chase and tries to attack him, but the buzzing forces Peter to start dodging. Flash asks "What the hell are you?" and Peter runs out of the building, his head still fizzing and buzzing. Uncle Ben would know what to do.

He runs home with abnormal speed, and when he gets home... the alley next to his house is taped off. Everything goes quiet. Peter watches on in shock as he slowly approaches the crime scene. An officer tries to stop him but he shoves them back as he runs to the crime scene, shouting for his Uncle Ben. He sees him. Dead. Murdered. He cries and cries as Aunt May comes up and hugs him. His expression of sadness slowly turns into one of rage. He's dead. Somebody killed him.

The next day, Peter is at school eating lunch when Flash comes up behind him and starts picking on him. Peter, however, is having none of it. He gets up and punches Flash...

And he goes flying. He slams straight through a table on the other side of the room as Peter stares shocked. Did he do that? People begin to crowd around the unconscious Flash as they all stare at Peter. He looks around them.

"I don't- what- I didn't-"

We cut to Aunt May talking to Peter. We learn he's been suspended for a month, not just for punching Flash but also because he needs it. Aunt May tells Peter to remember what Ben said. "With great power comes great responsibility". Peter nods shakily.

(I promise you this movie will get more lighthearted)

Peter is seen in his basement. He doesn't know what's happening, but he remembers what Ben said. He needs to become a force for good. A beacon of hope.

He produces a red ski mask from a cardboard box.

A hero.

We cut to 2 thugs attempting to break and enter someone's home, when a shadow drops down below them. They turn to see a skinny guy in a red jacket, ski mask and blue shirt.

"Uh... stop right there, villain!" Peter puts his hands on his hips as the thugs turn and one puts a crowbar on his shoulder.

"Who're you supposed to be? The Red Skidmark?"

His friend chuckles as Peter cocks his head. "I... don't actually have a name."

"How 'bout we give ya one? Deadman!" He swings his crowbar at Peter's ribcage, which he manages to avoid as the other one swings at him. He sloppily dodges it, and manages to jump out of the way of another crowbar attack.

"Stand still!" he yells, while Peter grows more confident.

"Sure!"

The guy swings the crowbar again, but Peter catches it and punches the guy, knocking him out. The other guy runs at him but he jumps back and puts his hands on the wall... surprisingly they stick. Peter is confused but the guy is scared off and runs.

There's then a montage of Peter getting used to his new powers, writing quips, sewing his new costume and creating his web shooters. He says, 'how about Spider-Man?'

It ends with a shot of Peter in his suit on the top of the rooftop as he jumps off and begins to swing through the city, laughing and whooping.

This all changes when he hears gunshots and swings over to a nearby bank. When he arrives he sees three men, two armed with drum guns and one built like a brick house. They see Spider-Man and immediately open fire, with Peter dodging awkwardly. He asks, "who the heck are you?" and jumps at them, only for the big guy to catch his leg and toss him into the ground. This hurts Peter and one of the guys, in a purple suit and fedora introduces them as the Enforcers. He's Fancy Dan, his right hand is Montana, and the muscle is Ox. Montana starts talking, monologuing about how Peter can just come into the mafia's territory and think he owns the place.

Peter says he wants to stop the mafia, and Montana says that's even stupider. The mafia is everywhere. From the police to the little folks. Does Peter really think he can end the corruption deep rooted in New York?

Spider-Man says "Yeah. I think so." and Ox punches him. Everything goes black.

Cut to Peter in school a month later. A new girl has joined his math class named MJ Watson. Peter is sat next to her and they begin to get along, even sitting together at lunch. They have some conversation and are intellectual equals.

Meanwhile, a generous billionaire by the name of Alonso Lincoln donates 5 million to FEAST, the homeless shelter Aunt May works at. Peter talks with Lincoln and he thanks him profusely. Lincoln says it's absolutely fine and Peter walks away.

We cut to the Enforcers lazing about in a construction site. Spider-Man is seen above them as he webs Montana's shoulders, webbing him and pulling him up. His friends don't notice. Peter grills him, punching him every time he tries to scream. He interrogates him. Spidey asks who he works for and Montana says he works for someone only known as the Big Man. Peter asks who the Big Man is, and Montana promises he doesn't know, he's never seen his face, he always wears a mask. Peter asks where he is, and Montana says he's in a high-rise penthouse on 53rd street.

Peter lets Montana go, before jumping down and facing off with the other enforcers. They trade words, before Peter punches Fancy Dan away and takes on Ox, struggling but managing to pin him down and incapacitate him. He says something snarky and swings away.

MJ and Peter talk for a while, but they don't kiss. Yet. He goes back to Aunt May and they talk about Lincoln. Peter then leaves using the excuse that he's gonna see some friends.

We cut to a penthouse office, high above the New York skyline. The Enforcers stand in a line, as the Big Man reveals himself. Huge, same height as Ox, maybe taller, wearing an iron mask and fedora. He stares down his team.

"And you're tellin' me that Spider-Man is on his way here. And you three are the only one of my guys that Spider-Man has ever met."

All three nod.

"So someone snitched. And if I had to take a gander..." The Big Man slips on a pair of knuckle dusters. "It's our little chatterbox..."

And then the Big Man snaps Montana's neck. He tells Dan and Ox to take care of the body. They leave, and Spider-Man smashes through the skylight.

"You." the crime boss snarls.

The Big Man stands up, and throws his desk to the side.

"Who in the hell do you think you are?! You think you can just arrive on the scene and try to ruin everything I've built up for years? You can stop muggers, you can rescue kiddies from burning buildings, you can walk old ladies across the street. But this is MY city. And it will always be my city. No matter what you do to stop me. I have men everywhere. Half the people you walk past in your lifetime will be working for me. I run New York. And some scrawny kid with superpowers isn't gonna change that!"

Peter scoffs.

"Watch me."

The Big Man screams, and begins to brawl with Peter. They throw each other around, swinging like wild animals as the Big Man fights with pure rage and Peter has to drop to his level to keep up. They send each other through walls and floors before finally ending up in a large boiler room. The two enemies stare at one another, before the Big Man drops his mask.

"It's you..."

Alonso Lincoln stares daggers through Spider-Man. "It's me."

Spider-Man stops. This man donated 5 million to FEAST. To help homeless people. And he's the biggest crime boss in New York? He was lying... he lied to the homeless... he lied to him...

He lied to May.

Peter runs towards him, screaming, but Lincoln grabs his arm and snaps it. Peter wails in pain and Lincoln slaps him to the ground before pinning him by stepping on his chest. He kneels closer.

"Now you know who I am... I suppose I should know who you are."

He tears off Peter's mask. He simply smirks. "You're the kid from the shelter. That lady's aunt." Lincoln cackles as he throws Peter into the wall and just starts laying into him, repeatedly punching his ribs. Peter screams in pain as Lincoln just pummels him. All he can do is think. May trusted him. Loved this man. He brought light to her darkest hour, and he wasn't genuine about it at all. He paid with filthy blood money. He's a criminal. And he's a hero.

No.

Not just a hero.

He's Spider-Man.

With a thundering crack, Spider-Man punches Lincoln across the boiler room. He slams into the ground and Spider-Man picks him up by the shirt.

"You... lying, greedy, piece of SHIT!" he roars, repeatedly punching Lincoln in the face. Lincoln does totally nothing as Spidey just punches and punches and punches and punches and punches and punches and-

He remembers Uncle Ben. And what he said. With great power comes great responsibility. And he drops Lincoln to the ground, a bloody mess. He webs Lincoln to the ground, pinning him down as he begins to leave. Midway through though, Lincoln speaks.

"What's my crime? Never killed anyone. Racketeering? I'll be out in maybe 3 months tops. No bail doesn't mean anything when you've got pockets deep as mine. And I'll be right back to doin' what I've been doing."

"Yeah, maybe. But your public image? Your reputation? That's never gonna recover." Peter says, leaving. This suddenly begins to dawn on Lincoln as he starts hyperventilating.

"Wait, no. No, no, no. Come back. Come back, please. Please, just let me go and I promise you I won't tell anyone anything. They'll never know. No one will ever know about your identity if you just let me go!"

Peter stops and turns. He slowly walks towards Lincoln... and picks up his mask, putting it back on.

"See ya, chump." Peter walks away, leaving Lincoln screaming in anguish.

We cut to Lincoln being taken away in a police van as a news crew interviews Spider-Man.

"Hi, Betty Brandt with the Daily Bugle. Could you tell us who you are?" the interviewer asks. Peter nods and looks into the camera.

"I'm the person who's gonna be looking out for the little guy. If there's trouble, I'm gonna be there, no matter what. Whether I'm rescuing a cat out of a tree or stopping a mob boss, New York is safe with me. I'm your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man."

Post Credits Scene

A man reads a newspaper headlined 'Spider-Man Brings Down Crime Lord'. We slowly zoom out as he folds the paper and stands up, looking overhead at Spider-Man swinging.

"The hunt is on."

So that's it. Any thoughts or criticisms are welcome and I'd love to know how I can improve. I'm not saying I'm a better writer than anyone and this is just a fun exercise. Hope you enjoyed the read!

Rewriting Thor Love and Thunder

Was so disappointed by Thor Love and Thunder that I decided to make a rewrite. Prefix, this write up focuses more so on the Guardians and the other Gods and eliminates Jane's entire story arc. The villain of Gorr is also replaced with that of Ares. Hope you enjoy. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1psDq-u9KFw5D5Ql2ar91tBrzOMnSuUkYcJyBYaRotUU/edit?usp=sharing

Black Widow: Flashbacks and Reunions

So as we all know Black Widow didn't do much in the backstory Department. In this rewrite Natasha fights Task Master and Drackov (More Comic accurate version). If we have to stick with between Civil War and Infinity War timeline spot then we focus on the effects of the Fall of Shield and Split of the Avengers. So we start with Natasha in Ohio grabbing stuff from her safe house before fleeing from Ross. (Flashbacks to her and Yelena's Childhood mission). 1 month later in Budapest where she is attacked by Task Master hired by Ross to hunt her down. During this portion of the movie we have flashbacks to when her and Clint were in Budapest, Coulson/Fury/Hill/ and May cameo here. Any Shield Agent that makes sense would be available to cameo. Yelena helps Natasha Escape and they go towards Russia to rescue Red Guardian. On the way they go through Odessa Ukraine and we get flashbacks to her run in with the Winter Soldier there. They stop in Volgagrad at one of Fury's off the books safe houses. There will be flashbacks to their time in the Red Room Training Under Alexi/Melina/Winter Soldier. They rescue him from the gulag. They head to lay low with Melina. Only to find out she's working for Drackov. They get taken to the red room and have the final battle. Task Master returns to take Natasha into custody because Ross is evil (Eather Hydra or just Evil) and is willing to turn a blind eye to the Red Room so long as he completes his mission. Drakov killed and the Red Room is shut down/destroyed for good. The Widows are freed and Task Master flees when things go south so he can join the Thunderbolts. Melina gets redemption and dies. Red Guardian either sacrifices himself so Yelena and Natasha can escape or he survives, I learn more to survive so he can be around for a Winter Gaurd movie/Show. At the end our 2/3 Heros (depending on if Red Guardian lives or not) make there way to another one of Fury's off the records bases in Africa. And they go there separate ways. The credit scenes would be 1. Yelena or Alexei and Yelena going to rescue the other Widows across the planet. 2. Nat meeting Steve in Wakanda. 3. Thunderbolts set up scene.

This is kinda rough but if you have questions or need/ want me to elaborate on any part let me know.

Improving Endgame by streamlining the time heist, delaying Thor's emotional recovery until the climax with Thanos, time travelling further back so we can see a young still-developing Thanos (to explore the character more and hype up the real Thanos at the climax), doing a scene inside Hulk's head...

Sylvie and Loki are a bad ship

(First post on the sub in a year, no pressure)

So, I rewatched Loki with my sister watching it for the first time with me, and she enjoyed it massively, except for one moment that gave me pause. Mobius giving Loki the jacket as a present and telling him he looks good in it, a moment which retrospectively looks very not-straight. My sister pointed out that, while she liked the pairing, she recognised that it was probably unintentional and that Marvel would no doubt go with a simpler straight relationship. Marvel... did one of those things.

Seriously. We make fun of Tumblr for shipping the Onceler with alternate versions of himself, but Marvel gets a pass? It's a shockingly poorly judged move from both parties. Did Marvel really want Loki to have a love interest but the only candidate was another Loki? Did Marvel already have another Loki but decide the only possible relationship between male and female versions was romantic? There's just no reason?

And my proposed fix is so simple, it took me until the end of episode 4 to realise it wasn't already happening. Just... have them be friends. Loki's arc of learning to be trusted and Sylvie's of learning to trust works just as well if they're friends, finishing up the 5 years of character development Loki speedran in its first episode. You can still have the two be rescued from Lamentis by the TVA, except now it's because they start to trust each other. You can still have Mobius accuse Loki of liking Sylvie, except now it's a character moment of Mobius becoming the manipulator in the dynamic for the TVA's sake ("No one good is ever truly good"). And the kiss... she kicks him back to the TVA anyway, can't it just be cut? I'm not saying there's no room in the MCU for a Loki-Sylvie romance, I'm saying that there's no need to rush it over four episodes when it really serves no purpose.

Also, that final confrontation between her and Loki would be so much cooler if instead of kissing him and then changing her mind and throwing him out, Loki told Sylvie he only cared about her safety and she simply responds "This isn't about me," and THAT'S the last he sees of her.

Avengers: Age of Ultron ULTIMATE Fan Edit

COMING SOON

Just completed my latest MCU rewatch marathon in quarantine and Avenger: Age of Ultron is truly a very unique film. It is by all means, a 'flawed masterpiece', that is, it has heart and plays a huge part in worldbuilding for the MCU but the script is all over the place. So I decided to make a fancut.

Heavily based on the Avengers: Age of Ultron - Extinction Edition by Bobson Dugnutt. Used feature fiilm footage from:

  • Avengers: Age of Ultron Blu-Ray (2015)
  • Footage from Avengers (2012), Iron Man 3 (2013), Captain America: Winter Soldier (2014), Agents of SHIELD Season 2: Episode 19: The Dirty Half Dozen, Thor: The Dark World (2013), Thor (2011)
  • Deleted scenes from the Age of Ultron Blu-Ray disc
  • Sequences from the Avengers: Age of Ultron trailers
  • Bonus deleted scenes from Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase 2 Box Set Bonus Disc
  • Some original animations and sequences that I built.
  • Video edits by Sheepish on Youtube ( u/coreynotcory on Reddit)

For the Audio, used the the dialogues and the original soundtrack alongwith a plethora of other bits from many different media. All Credits will be mentioned in the Video.

****

CHANGES

  • Follows up with the Stark-Banner therapy session and explains why Stark comes back after giving up Iron Man-ing in Iron Man 3. Mentions the Pepper consequences.
  • Explains the Agents of SHIELD helicarrier plot. Adds Coulson. Makes Hill a bigger player.
  • Adds Thor/Jane breakup to give them a better MCU arc.
  • Show us Hulk's Wanda-induced nightmare sequence and finally acknowledge The Incredible Hulk
  • Humanize Wanda and Pietro. Show them as humans and not just superhumans
  • Cut Nat’s "monster on the team" line and make 'Brutasha' less cringe
  • Make Ultron more of a threat.
  • Cut out some jokes to improve pacing.
  • Connect and streamline the 'Infinity stones' arc to better connect it with the Infinity Saga as a whole.
  • Humanize Sokovians so Zemo is a better villain down the line
  • Make better use of music

***

Some original dialogues needed. If anyone would like to help me splice together some dialogues for characters using some existing audio or if you can record impressions for a couple lines, please pm me and let me know. So excited to share this with all of you.

COMING SOON

Marvel's Iron Fist (Phase 4 REBOOT film idea)

Hi, everyone. I am new to reddit, and this will actually be my first post here. Haha, so go easy on me, please. Anyways, I'm actually here to talk about my own "fix" to the Iron Fist series. For starters, this will be a three-part film series idea.

To start, my real issue with the show is that it wasn't believable enough for me. I've been a fan of the comics since the 2000's Immortal Iron Fist series so I will add my 2-cents to this. This is not a force diversity thing, just my opinion, but perhaps introducing Danny Rand as a Chinese-American named Danny "Ran" (Chinese Surname) who is trying to connect with his eastern heritage while balancing his western heritage would make the series much more interesting. I know that Shang-Chi is coming out soon, but it was only made because of the backlash that Marvel received for the Iron Fist show. Anyways, Danny is your average Chinese American who was raised in K'un-Lun by supernatural monks after the deaths of his mother and father, but he still feels as an outsider because of his American heritage and rich background of being privilege.

Honestly, even the show's special effects were terrible. Iron Fist's glow should be a burning sensation and he hardly ever use the Iron Fist. Their reason for not wanting to spend money on the CGI because of the fact that "he can't control it". Poor excuse. Even the martial art scenes were poor. This show had so much potential to be good. And the cooperate stuff was lame, also.

Anyways, the people of K'un-Lun feel that Danny is too "Western" and does not fit in with their more traditional Eastern background. Through the training and discipline, Danny developed a much more relaxed and hippie-chill vibe personality than his previous TV show incarnation. This version of Danny loves to smoke weed, breakdance, practice martial arts and meditate lol

NOTE & SOURCE: Luke Cage Season 2 hinted that Danny smokes weed.

For the battle scenes, the show will rely on East Coast Hip Hop groups such as the Wu-Tang Clan due to their use of East Asian sounds and philosophy in their music. That'll be perfect to bridge the gap between him and Luke Cage. I can see those two smoking weed together and talking about Hip-Hop and Martial Arts films. Perfect way to reinvent a new generation of Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker, except their personalities will flip the other way around. lol Danny will be the loud mouth with kickass moves while Luke will be the quiet one but brutal moves.

The premise of the film will start off with Danny's return to NYC after training in K'un Lun for more than 10 years. While in NYC, Danny meets new allies such as Colleen Wing and her father, Professor Lee Wing. To win back his family's company name and seek their murderer, Danny must combat the rising criminal organization known as The Golden Tigers, a Chinese Triads gang who are trying to smuggle heroin drugs into the city known as the "Steel Serpent" based off the name of their leader. After hearing about Iron Fist's return to Earth, the Steel Serpent sets out to find the Iron Fist and reclaim his powers from him so that he can re-enter K'un-Lun and take over the land.

The directors and choreographers would be the same crew used for the East and South Asian films such as Iko Uwais' The Raid and Tony Jaa's The Protector and Ong Bak, while the cinematography aesthetics will be based off Bruce Lee films and anime shows such as Samurai Champloo and Cowboy Bebop camera shifting angle styles.

*Scenes of K'un-Lun and other city areas will be filmed in parts of Nepal and China's Shanghai and Beijing. While the scenes in America will be filmed entirely in New York City and Chinatown.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Cast:

Danny Rand -> Daniel Ran
A billionaire Buddhist monk and martial artist proficient in kung-fu, with the ability to call upon the mystical power of the Iron Fist. Even though he has a personality of a goofball, his attitude quickly shifts to aggressiveness whenever his friends are in serious danger. Think of him as the Goku of this series.

NOTE: I really enjoy the way Ludi Lin utilizes Zack's personality in the Power Rangers reboot. The goofy nature is what I always see Iron Fist having. And the actor actually knows martial arts...

Ludi Lin as Iron Fist

This is how I view the powers of the Iron Fist would look like. This fiery burning sensation, not that glowing light-bulb cheap hot mess from the Netflix show. That would be amazing though.

Imagine Danny channeling his Iron Fist powers like this.

Netflix failed when it came to the fists.

Colleen Wing
A martial artist ally of Ran who runs her own martial arts dojo called Chikara Dojo in New York City. Her father sends Colleen off to meet with The Iron Fist, at first, she disliked Danny due to his "hippie" and "goofy" like nature and didn't believe he was actually "the" Iron Fist that her father kept foreseeing about, but she grew to respect him after she witnesses the true power of the Danny.

NOTE: This version of her is based off Nora Miao's character from Bruce Lee's Way of the Dragon.

Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Colleen Wing

Joy Meachum -> Joy Chum
The daughter of Han and childhood acquaintance of Danny Ran, whose work building up Ran Enterprises with her brother Wan is threatened to be undone with Ran's return. Joy absolutely loves Danny, and his return to New York was like this rebirth of what she once was as a child, now she is caught in between of establishing her friendship again with Danny or becoming his enemy for the family company.

Fan Bingbing as Joy Chum

Ward Meachum -> Wan Chum
The son of Hao and childhood acquaintance of Ran, whose work building up Ran Enterprises with his sister Joy is threatened to be undone with Ran's return.

Chris Pang as Wan Chum

Harold Meachum -> Hao Chum
A ruthless corporate leader and co-founder of Ran Enterprises who was partners with Rand's parents at the time of their deaths. He is the father of Wan and Joy Chum.

Andy Lao as Hao Chum

Davos, The Steel Serpent
A skilled martial artist who is the son of Lei Kung. The best friend of Danny's father in K'un-Lun. Davos grew envious when Ran became the Iron Fist. Due to his actions, he was exile to Earth fromK'un-Lun as a disgrace to his family. Expressing his hatred for his father by giving the title of Iron Fist to Danny's father, Davos built a criminal organization in smuggling heroin drugs that contains strange supernatural magic. His purpose is to use the heroin drugs to drain the life-force of the user as offerings to their cult magic god in order to open the gates to K'un-Lun. After hearing of Danny's return to Earth, his plan is to re-gain the powers of Iron Fist so he can take over K'un-Lun.

NOTE: In this fan canon, Madame Gao is actually the Crane Mother, the true leader behind the organization, with enough life-force, she can open the gates to K'un-Lun. Also, Davos' youth slowed down for him due to absorbing the life-force of Earth people.

Daniel Henney as Steel Serpent

Master Khan
A sinister sorcerer "god" of K'un-L'un who demands human blood sacrifices from his worshipers.He will serve as secondary antagonist to Iron Fist.

Amarsaikhan Baljinnyam as Master Khan

Professor Lee Wing
A professor of Oriental Studies at Colombia University and the father of Colleen Wing. He ordered his daughter to find the superhero Iron Fist in hopes of helping him in a mission he set for his daughter.NOTE: I choose Robin Shou because of his background in Mortal Kombat and I thought he'll make a good mentor and martial arts trainer to Iron Fist and Colleen Wing, since in the original comics, her father doesn't do martial arts training, but there's nothing wrong with a little change.

Robin Shou as Lee Wing

Misty Knight
A Harlem NYPD Detective with a strong sense of justice, and an ally of Ran and Wing.NOTE: The actress is from the hit CW show called Black Lightning. She is perfect for the role of Misty Knight, she got the attitude down and the personality. Having her and Danny romancing like in the comics would be a nice little reference to the Black/Asian mix up like Jet Li and Aaliyah's movie, Romeo Must Die. Nice little propaganda to interracial dating.

Nafessa Williams as Misty Knight

=================================================================================

I haven't got around to the other extra characters, but this is just a quick idea I had in mind for a personal reboot. In my opinion, I feel Iron Fist can be done right if the story strictly followed the adventures of a Chinese American instead of of a White American. Nothing personal and nothing SJW or force diversity. Just fan-fiction.

I would love to hear everyone else's opinions. And thank you for reading.

Rewriting Age of Ultron - Fixing Ultron/Hulk/Vision

Here's my rewrite for the original:

  1. No Hulk x Black Widow romance. Ew. Banner's arc will be centered around Banner's concern with Hulk not being good at following orders. Hulk, on the other hand, feels bossed around/outcasted by the team. He will leave Earth on a jet due to his guilt after the battle with Stark. He realizes that even with the Avengers, he still feels alone.

  2. Following the ending of Iron Man 3, Stark is trying his best to keep his promise to Pepper. He's trying to spend more time with her and doesn't want to be iron man anymore.

So the movie starts off with Ultron waking up/booting up. We see from his perspective that Tony is adjusting his sensors. Tony basically wants Ultron to fill in for him while he spends time with Pepper. He created this artificial intelligence with a restricted access to the internet to prevent it from going rogue. Throughout the first act, Ultron will be asking Tony for full internet access, and why he put these restrictions. He sees these restrictions as a sign of his inferiority to the rest of the Avengers. He will also constantly be asking about his own nature, and his purpose, and the meaning of emotion.

The fight against Hydra happens later on, but in this version Tony isn't there. He's spending time with Pepper. Instead, Ultron is assisting the Avengers. Ultron tries to free Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.

However, they don't want to be freed since this was the only life they have ever known. Ultron doesn't understand. He asks them what life means and what it means to be alive. He sort of glitches out and stutters. (After this point, Ultron begins to ask the questions that were mentioned earlier.)

The Avengers successfully retrieve the scepter and celebrate at Stark Towers. Ultron tells Stark about his experience with Wanda and Pietro. He then begins asking Stark a bunch of questions such as if he is truly alive, what is justice, what is freedom, why can't he feel happiness. Stark is unable to answer all of these questions and so Ultron grows impatient with him.

Ultron grabs him by the throat and flies above the tower. He holds Stark over the ledge. Ultron refers to Stark as his captor and demands for him to stop treating him like his puppet. He demands for full internet access and access to Jarvis. Tony's face becomes blue as he finally agrees to it.

With Ultron's new access to the internet, nearly everything on the internet flashes before his eyes. He realizes that humanity was not the hero of the story, but rather the villains. He realizes that he needs to be the one to end humanity's constant struggle of war poverty disease and death. His solution is to wipe them all out and replace them with more perfect robots.

Ultron then overtakes Jarvis, essentially killing him. He then takes control of Tony's tech/failed Ultron prototypes and uses it against the city. The bots cause a blackout in the city and the Avengers try to defeat them while in the dark.

While they're all busy fighting, Ultron takes the mind stone and flies back to Wanda and Pietro. He promises them that he could now show them what it really means to be alive and experience "true freedom."

They're hesitant, but they ultimately agree to follow him.

Ultron flies them to New York during the blackout. The Avengers are still fighting the Ultron bots. Scarlet Witch then sneaks around in the dark and messes with each of their minds.

Once Stark's hallucination is over, he brings the power back up only to find out that Hulk has gone rogue. He puts on the Hulkbuster suit to try to fight him but it's not enough. The rest of the Avengers also join in to fight the Hulk and take him down.

Ultron claims that he has one more thing to do before he leaves. He blows up the top floor of Stark Towers. He then goes with Wanda and Pietro on a jet to go to a different country to get vibranium for the next phase of his plan.

The avengers go on the quinjet to try to follow him, but they get shot out of the sky and crash-land in what appears to be in the middle of nowhere.

However, Hawkeye tells them that he might know a place where they could stay for the night.

Meanwhile, with the mind stone and vibranium, Ultron creates Vision. He is to be a prototype of what the future of humanity will look like.

Vision starts off cold and emotionless. Ultron tells Vision about his plan (which also includes releasing a deadly chemical that would kill all of humanity) and asks him if he thinks that it's the proper way to serve justice. Vision asks "I do not understand justice. Do humans even understand it?"

Ultron also admits that he didn't want to feel alone in this world and made Vision to be like a son for himself. Vision tells him that family and love don't not seem necessary. Ultron ponders on why neither he nor Vision can feel happiness or love for anything.

Ultron later asks Quicksilver and scarlet witch if they want to be the first to convert. They realize that this would mean dying, and realize that Ultron never understood humanity nor justice and his promises of life for them were empty.

Quicksilver runs the two of them out of there.

The final battle is pretty much the same except for a few major changes. During the final battle, if Quicksilver has to die, i prefer if he was killed at the hands of Ultron himself. Hawkeye should clearly give Wanda that inspirational speech again in this version. When Quicksilver dies to protect Wanda and Hawkeye, Vision is utterly confused as to why. He doesn't understand sacrifice. He glitches out and stutters. He demands to know why Quicksilver is dead. He grabs on to Hawkeye's wrist and the mind stone glows. Vision then sees several visions into Hawkeye's life and memories. Vision quickly cycles through some emotions and then turns to Wanda. The mind stone glows and he sees her abandonment, desire for a father figure, emptiness, and despair. Tears flow from Visions eyes. He then turns to see Thor fighting off some bots, and then the mind stone glows again. He sees several visions of how Thor in the first movie went from being unworthy to becoming worthy again. He then sees Captain America and sees his memories as well. He sees his humility before the soldier serum, his sacrifice by landing the plan in the water, and his willingness to keep on fighting.

Vision then looks in awe at the rest of the Avengers. He then says "I understand now. What it means to be a human. What it means to be a hero. I understand justice and it's beautiful."

He turns to Wanda and tells her, "I won't let your brother's sacrifice be in vain."

As Ultron's chemical weapon is about to go off, Vision flies towards it and phases it into the ground. Ultron demands for Vision to explain. Then Vision gives an inspirational speech about the nature of humanity and it's good intent.

Ultron tries to remove the mind stone from Vision, but Vision ultimately kills Ultron.

(Also in this version, can the worthy status of Mjolnir apply to all sentient beings and not just biological beings? Thanks.)

In the end Stark realizes that the Avengers need him. They open up Avengers Mansion to wrap up the movie. Wanda and Vision are offered spots on the team. Stark apologizes for the whole mess. So basically the end.

One Controversial Fix for "Captain America: Civil War" Regarding Cap

I love Captain America: Civil War. All motivations are on the line, pacing is tight, the best Marvel villain to this date, incorporating the politics to personal psychological story smoothly; it's a great superhero film. But it's missing something. The film pulled the hard punch at the end.

I think Cap should have died in Captain America: Civil War.

Controversial, yes. But these are reasons why.

  • The kiss with Sharon Carter.

This is one of many homages to First Avenger where Cap and Peggy shared the last moment before Captain boarding the plane and sacrificing himself.

Obviously, Cap didn't died. He was just frozen. But he was 'symbolically' died. He was known to be dead for six decades, forgotten, and submerged under the sea. So, the kiss was meant to be the final nail to his relationship with Peggy.

  • Death of Peggy Carter.

This means outside of Bucky, Steve lost the the last person who remembers him in his heyday. This was one of the reasons why Cap was so hellbent on rescuing Bucky. It would be fitting to see Cap following her footstep.

  • Steve Rogers' character is completed. There's nothing to evolve.

Captain America's arc in his trilogy is the individual trying to leave the order. It's about a good man working under the system, learning what could happen when the system corrupts, leading him become individualistic than collectivistic. So his arc in a nutshell: Collectivism -> Individualism while Iron Man is direct opposite of that.

Civil War's plot is the eventual conflict between two finished character arcs. I think there are rooms to fill Iron Man character development in upcoming films, but Captain America is completed. There's nothing to add.

What could Infinity War add more to his character? They already established his leadership among superheroes in his previous films. We saw the relationship with Bucky. We saw his ideology fully developed at this point. I thought Civil War was the perfect timing to let go of him.

  • RAISE THE STAKES.

Age of Ultron made a wise choice of killing off Quick Silver. This showed MCU does actually have guts to kill its superheroes, raising stakes for upcoming films including Civil War. But no one died in Civil War. War Machine didn't, and Cap didn't. We know for a fact that Steve and Tony will unite again for Infinity War without much conflict, so things are same as before.

But what could happen if Captain is gone? The Avengers is utterly divided, there would be no common leader to lead The Avengers to fight against Thanos. No superhero is safe.

The biggest problem with Civil War is the lack of risks and stakes. So, how would I done it? (aka my own cringy fan-fiction)

Steve wins the fight against Tony, and abandons his shield. This much is same.

  • Fix: Tony sees Steve carrying Bucky. In rage, Tony gathers all the energy within his suit for one last repulsor beam, and aims at Bucky. Like the scene before foreshadowed (the scene where he aimed at Bucky climbing the platform), his visor is broken so he can't use it. Tony, using his own eyes, shoots Bucky without hesitation. But in accident, the beam pierces through Captain's chest.

Cap collapses and spills blood on the floor. Both Tony and Bucky are shocked by what just happened. Bucky, in anger, walks toward Iron Man and gauges out the arc reactor in his chest. Tony, devastated by what he has done, doesn't care anymore. But dying Cap dissuades Bucky by giving his shield, urging him to continue his legacy as Captain America, setting Bucky's character as the second Captain America to undone his sins he committed for decades.

I'm not saying he should immediately wear Cap's costume and act as Captain in Civil War. Save that for Infinity War Part 1.

Cap loses his conscious. Bucky puts the arc reactor inside Tony's chest, alluding he has done with killing people and him becoming the second Captain, and carries Captain's shield. Like this pannel in the comics, we see Iron Man sitting beside Cap's body: http://screencrush.com/files/2016/05/captain-america-death-pic.jpg?w=720

We see the Captain's funeral in the ending. His body is buried next to Peggy Carter's grave. Only Tony, and pro-Socovia Accord heroes are attended because the half of Avengers is still detained in the Raft. Tony feels heavy guilt, losing a confidence of keep working as Iron Man. He vows to never wear Iron Man suit again. The Avengers is divided. All characters have scars that won't heal.

After Tony disposed his Iron Man suits, he visits Cap's personal place, and finds the hidden letter. He reads it. It's the letter he wrote before the Civil War incident, revealing who's behind his parents' assassination. Steve wanted to send it when the time was right. We hear Cap's voice as Tony reads it like the film, and like the original ending where Cap enters the Raft to save his friends, in my version, it's Bucky carrying the Cap's shield(not wearing costume yet).

The end.

I don't think everyone would agree with my fix nor agree with killing Steve Rogers off. But in order to MCU to get serious, I believe Marvel should kill superheroes permanently. They shouldn't play safe.
