Seems like a lot of development for one movie. Hope the ones leading up to it show Doom, and the XMEN

Yeah maybe they'll just be fodder but having a focus on the Wakandans, besides Shuri of course, seems like a waste of time when the new avengers team, Doom, the fantastic four, and X men need to be developed in this movie

seeing as namor is in the movie it’s picking up a loose end from recently which is what a lot of people have been asking for so i don’t think it’s that wasteful

Namor is probably there to try and steal Sue from Reed lol

u/Ronenthelich Thor 3d ago

That should also be Doom’s motivation.

It's not wasteful for them to be present of course, there's just so much this movie has to do that I'll feel like it's wasteful if Namor and M'Baku do more in the movie than just show up for the big battle

Nah just spend 5-10 minutes showing the progress of the wakanda talokan alliance and then move on and they can show up later however they are needed

Yeah, like, this is what they’ve done in every Avengers movie. Now we’re suddenly scared of these movies juggling a big cast and several settings?

u/el_palmera 3d ago

Yeah just about every character besides the x men have had their own phase 4 or 5 movie by the time this comes out, we know where they're all at already

One thing the writers and Russos are good at is getting real bang for the buck. Steve was only in IW for 7 minutes in a 2+ hr movie and had almost no actual lines. (He actually had more in his Homecoming PSAs 😆) But he was a huge presence anyway with the great train station sequence and battle of Wakanda.

That fucking "lone gunslinger" moment with Wanda before he makes his entrance, my god, such a tiny moment but so so good.

I’ve watched it a shameful number of times.

That's an awful opinion. They should be setting up the Illuminati in this movie somehow. Make us care about these characters and make them matter in the grand scheme don't just sideline them.

So it's Battleworld

Why do Fantastic Four and X-Men need to be developed when they have their own movies to do that?

And the Avengers shouldn't take that long since it will consist of characters that we're already familiar with.

I have a feeling fantastic 4 is going to be multiverse heavy

F4 will have a credits scene if nothing else that leads in. Maybe Doom wiping out the Council of Kangs or just a tease like Thanos

Doomsday seems like a huge event plus a sendoff to OG Fox (& likely many 616 characters) like NWH & D&W

It’s still only a part of a bigger narrative including F4, BND, & leading to a much bigger Secret Wars. Many will die, but some of these characters will have multi-movie arcs over a couple years

The only thing leading up to it that has a chance of doing any setup is Fantastic Four. Maybe that does some heavy lifting but idk what to expect at this point
