AI Summary

The video discusses the Russo brothers' recent comments about 'Avengers: Doomsday' being a 'Phase Zero' that doesn't rely on previous MCU films. The panel debates whether this is feasible given the interconnected nature of the franchise, and also covers leaked details from the 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' trailer. The conversation explores the implications of a soft reboot, what elements from the Multiverse Saga should be kept or discarded, and what fans hope to see in the MCU's future.

[[0:23]]
Russo brothers' Phase Zero concept

Russo brothers want Avengers: Doomsday to be 'Phase Zero,' a starting point that doesn't rely on previous MCU films, though this seems challenging.

[[0:42]]
Spider-Man trailer leak

A leaked trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day has dropped, with rumors of pink energy (possibly Jean Grey) and confirmation of Sadie Sink's casting.

[[6:49]]
Impossibility of standalone Doomsday

Panel notes that Civil War relied on prior MCU history, questioning how Doomsday can be standalone with 50+ characters.

[[9:29]]
Corporate content overproduction

MCU made too many Disney+ shows, making Avengers films logistically impossible; now they must wrap up and ignore the Multiverse Saga.

[[10:13]]
Keeping good, discarding bad

WandaVision and Loki are likely kept as essential; Secret Invasion, Ironheart, and Echo will be ignored due to low viewership.

[[12:03]]
TV shows as required viewing is a failure

General audiences are confused by show-to-movie connections (e.g., Multiverse of Madness needing WandaVision); Doomsday must be accessible.

[[15:18]]
Loki's role as exposition device

Loki can explain the multiverse collapse in a single conversation, avoiding the need for full show viewing.

[[17:48]]
Phase Zero as Secret Wars adaptation

Phase Zero likely refers to the 2015 Secret Wars storyline: multiverse collapse, Battleworld, and a new universe leading to a mutant saga.

[[26:02]]
MCU's unresolved plot threads

Marvel introduces huge cliffhangers (e.g., Harry Styles as Starfox, Hercules) but never follows up, frustrating fans.

[[27:47]]
Exposition based on popularity

In Endgame, they explained the Aether because few saw Thor: Dark World; they'll use similar strategy for obscure series.

[[34:25]]
She-Hulk twerking must stay

Panel jokes that the She-Hulk twerking scene should be kept, with Mike claiming to have filmed Megan Thee Stallion.

[[36:48]]
X-Men integration and comic-booky feel

Panel is excited for X-Men to appear alongside Avengers, and hopes the MCU returns to adapting comic stories closely.

[[39:24]]
Need for unified creative direction

The MCU used to have interconnectivity (e.g., Hydra guns sounding like Stark's arc reactor), but now creators are siloed; a 'fan liaison' with authority is needed.

[[49:47]]
Desire for a WWII Captain America film

Panel wants an R-rated Captain America movie where he fights Nazis, drawing from comic material and featuring Wolverine.

[[53:18]]
Endgame re-release with Doom connections

Russo brothers are adding scenes to Endgame (like Dr. Doom forging armor sound) to connect to Doomsday, potentially including the Watcher or Loki.

[[58:19]]
Sadie Sink as Jean Grey in Spider-Man

Leaked trailer shows pink energy, likely from Jean Grey; panel suspects she is being used, not a villain, to set up mutant fear.

The panel agrees that while 'Phase Zero' is a marketing gimmick, the MCU needs a soft reboot that retains popular elements (Loki, WandaVision) while discarding failed ones. Doomsday will likely adapt Secret Wars and introduce the mutant era, but must be accessible to general audiences without requiring prior viewing of Disney+ shows.

"The title accurately reflects the video's core topic—the Russo brothers' 'Phase Zero' concept—but is slightly exaggerated because the discussion goes beyond just explaining the term to include broader Marvel news."

[00:07] Let's rewind. Rewind.

[00:13] >> Welcome back to Screen Crush Rewind. I

[00:15] am your humble host, Ryan Ary, and today

[00:18] we're going to talk about something.

[00:19] This is a little bit old news, but we we

[00:21] finally got around to talking about

[00:22] this. We're going to talk about how the

[00:23] Russo brothers said that Avengers

[00:25] Doomsday, they're thinking of in terms

[00:27] of a phase zero. They don't want

[00:29] anything to about the movie to rely on

[00:33] previous movies or films as much as

[00:35] possible, which seems impossible to do.

[00:38] So, we're going to talk about that and

[00:40] some other Marvel tidbits. Also, a

[00:42] leaked trailer for Spider-Man Brand New

[00:44] Day uh dropped. I of course

[00:47] didn't watch the leaked trailer. I would

[00:49] never do such a thing. However, there

[00:51] are rumors and rattlings I've heard

[00:53] about it online that I think we're going

[00:55] to talk about because it sounds like it

[00:56] could be an interesting film based on

[00:58] what we've seen so far. We're going to

[01:00] just talk about latest news on that. And

[01:01] of course, we want to hear from you guys

[01:03] down in the comments and in the super

[01:04] chats. Let us know what you think about

[01:06] all this. And as always, super chats are

[01:07] encouraged but not required. And later

[01:10] we'll talk about what we're going to do

[01:11] next regarding uh different membership

[01:13] things. We're going to do X2. And I want

[01:16] to know from you guys for our X2 watch

[01:17] party if you would rather us do that in

[01:20] the evening or during the day. We're

[01:21] toying with the idea of doing it during

[01:23] the day. But let us know if you're a

[01:25] store member, let us know. And if you're

[01:26] not, hey, why not join for a month? Get

[01:28] a uh join the $5 tier and get a 15%

[01:30] merch discount. But first, let me bring

[01:32] on our special panelist. Uh we got one

[01:35] or two people who might be running a bit

[01:36] late. But first up, you know him as

[01:38] Doug's attorney, Mr. Mike Misella.

[01:40] What's going on, Mike?

[01:42] >> Hey, Ryan. Uh, I mean, little awkward. I

[01:45] got to say I'm a little caught off

[01:46] guard. You're talking about Marvel and

[01:47] Doomsday and I thought we were here

[01:49] today to talk about the big news, which

[01:51] is, of course, we finally got a

[01:53] whalefall trailer.

[01:55] >> Yeah, I know. After Yeah. No, I know. I

[01:58] know.

[01:58] >> After all the anticipation, whale fall

[02:00] is coming. That whale is falling. Who's

[02:02] going to catch it? I don't know. Not me.

[02:05] All right. But I know that me and all my

[02:06] fellow whale watchers out there are

[02:08] going to be in the theaters day one. I

[02:10] already got my tickets.

[02:13] The tickets went on sale today, too, and

[02:14] I missed. Well, my theater will be sold

[02:16] out.

[02:16] >> Yeah, I got special connections. Okay. I

[02:18] I had to do a whole nautical thing. I

[02:19] don't know if you noticed. That's also

[02:20] why I'm wet. I'm not sweaty. It's just

[02:23] >> Oh, yeah. Yeah. And that's a really

[02:24] interesting blank sky background behind

[02:26] you as well. Very very

[02:28] >> Yeah. Thanks. I also I mean whale fall.

[02:29] My This whale is falling.

[02:32] >> Oh, I couldn't even read it. Yeah, I got

[02:33] you. Um uh and if and if you guys are

[02:35] behind on this, we we covered the Disney

[02:37] Upfronts thinking we would get a trailer

[02:38] for something and instead we got the

[02:40] announcement of Whalefall, which we were

[02:42] all very excited about. Next up, you

[02:43] know her from her very own channel,

[02:45] Whitney Vision. Here she is, Miss

[02:47] Whitney L Van Landingham. What is going

[02:49] on, Whitney? How are you?

[02:50] >> Hi, I'm good. How are you?

[02:54] >> Wow, it's been so long since somebody

[02:55] actually asked me that. [laughter]

[02:58] >> I'm great.

[02:59] >> That's why I'm here, baby. I'm here

[03:00] because I care about you.

[03:03] I care about I just want to throw that

[03:05] out there. No,

[03:06] >> you care about whales, Mike. Don't lie.

[03:08] >> I I also care about the whales. Okay.

[03:10] Some of them are endangered. [laughter]

[03:12] >> Whitney, is that Pugsley on your pillow

[03:13] behind you?

[03:14] >> Um, this is a pug mask. Uh, you can you

[03:18] can wear it on your on your head like

[03:21] Yeah. And then you become a pug. And uh

[03:26] it's great. Brett was Pugsley for

[03:27] Halloween a few years ago.

[03:29] >> Excellent. Yeah. Love it. Love it. You

[03:31] should wear that on Whitney Vision

[03:32] sometimes when you're doing your

[03:33] animation videos and animated

[03:35] breakdowns. It would fit right in.

[03:37] >> Oh, that was such a sick plug. That was

[03:39] such a serious

[03:40] >> see what I do for you. You see the

[03:41] things I do. It's like, and if you love

[03:43] Mike's level of humor, you can always,

[03:45] of course, catch him at his comedy shows

[03:47] every week. Mike M Comedy on Instagram

[03:49] with links for that down below. And

[03:50] finally, a guy who has his own YouTube

[03:53] channel, who also does a lot of stuff

[03:54] here at Screen Crush as a full-time

[03:56] staff member. You know him as a guy

[03:57] who's trapped in our TV and doesn't know

[03:59] it, so please don't tell him. Mr. Colton

[04:00] Augburn.

[04:02] Aug.

[04:03] >> I I don't I I don't care how you're

[04:06] doing. I I don't care.

[04:08] >> Yeah, that's okay, man. You're in good

[04:10] company with the rest of Earth.

[04:12] >> I really care how [laughter] you're

[04:14] doing.

[04:15] >> Hey, you know, I I messaged you. My my

[04:18] camera's giving me trouble when you want

[04:20] to know what the problem was.

[04:21] >> What?

[04:21] >> Yes.

[04:22] >> You're too beautiful.

[04:23] >> What?

[04:24] >> [ __ ] wasn't plugged in.

[04:26] >> No.

[04:27] >> Wait, that'll do it.

[04:28] >> I'll be honest. I wasn't paying

[04:29] attention at the start of what you said.

[04:31] What wasn't plugged in?

[04:32] >> The the camera just wasn't plugged. I'm

[04:34] sitting there like troubleshooting your

[04:35] camera and everything and then I look

[04:38] and the cable that connects it to my

[04:40] computer is just

[04:41] >> just dangling. I got to say for all the

[04:43] technical problems that I have, that's

[04:45] not one of them. I know where I know

[04:46] where the cables go. I'm sitting there

[04:48] troubleshooting, going into the

[04:49] settings, checking the HDMI out and all

[04:51] in the cable,

[04:54] >> just dangling the whole time, mocking

[04:55] you like the pet in the pendulum,

[04:57] swinging back and forth.

[04:59] >> Well, Colton, I'm glad you're here. I

[05:00] don't know if you missed it in the

[05:01] intro, but we're going to talk about how

[05:03] the Russo brothers have been talking

[05:05] about this phase zero. I want to go over

[05:07] that news with you guys, and I want to

[05:08] hear first of all what you guys think

[05:10] that means for the multiverse saga and

[05:12] whether or not it's required viewing. Is

[05:14] that [ __ ] on the multiverse saga?

[05:15] But then later, I want to talk about

[05:16] this idea of a soft reboot and maybe

[05:19] what you're hopeful or what you're

[05:20] looking forward to the MCU kind of

[05:22] getting rid of in the soft reboot and

[05:24] what you want to see them keep. And of

[05:26] course, you guys can let us know in the

[05:27] comments. Super chats are always, like I

[05:28] said, encouraged but not required. So,

[05:30] let's start with this quote from the

[05:32] Rootoes, right? They were at South by

[05:34] Southwest London, which by the way, also

[05:37] the site of a pretty kick-ass coffee

[05:39] shop. I don't know [laughter] if you

[05:40] guys are up on that.

[05:42] Uh Joe Russo speaking to the Hollywood

[05:44] Reporter from South by Southwest London

[05:46] uh said the serial shifting changing and

[05:49] the serial shifting and changing and

[05:51] surprising and then reinventing itself

[05:53] and then shifting and changing. I think

[05:54] you're going to see some shifting and

[05:56] changing with doomsday. We were both

[05:57] talking about this concept that we are

[05:59] back to phase zero. This is starting

[06:02] over from scratch. We want to make sure

[06:04] everybody feels like this isn't leaning

[06:06] on anything from the past. Uh,

[06:10] >> damn. Say say shifting and changing one

[06:13] more time, boys. Say it one more time.

[06:14] >> Yeah, I don't know what the context of

[06:15] that was. I don't SAY IT ONE MORE TIME,

[06:17] [ __ ] NOW, [laughter] WHAT DO

[06:19] YOU guys say one more? Um,

[06:23] how in the hell can this movie, let's

[06:24] just start with the practical matter.

[06:25] How can Avengers Doomsday with all those

[06:29] chairs? How can they possibly, and I'm

[06:31] not saying it's not possible, but how

[06:33] can they tell a story that's not reliant

[06:35] on knowledge of the past? They, the

[06:37] Russos even said, by the way, they could

[06:39] not have made the movie Captain America:

[06:40] Civil War if it weren't for what had

[06:43] come before in the MCU. There's no way

[06:44] to make that movie work with with a

[06:46] quarter of the cast without the previous

[06:48] history of the MCU.

[06:49] >> Can I just say,

[06:50] >> you think it's possible that the first

[06:52] hour of the movie is just exposition?

[06:54] >> No. Just like, and here's this person,

[06:56] this person,

[06:57] >> old sonar. Like

[07:00] >> I I'm elated to have our our two fine

[07:02] guests here, but I I do wish that Alex

[07:04] was here because he wrote a great

[07:06] article saying, "Can the Russos just be

[07:08] normal about Doomsday?" and talks about

[07:10] their tone poems and everything.

[07:13] >> They're so weird, man. When you were

[07:16] reading that, my eyes just glazed over.

[07:19] He sounds like he's trying to meet a

[07:20] word count on an essay that's due in

[07:23] four minutes. [laughter] Like,

[07:24] >> no, seriously. How many times is it

[07:26] shifting and changing three times?

[07:29] That's somebody who's looking to hit a

[07:30] word count. I thought it was a typo

[07:32] thesaurus open

[07:33] >> double space. Make periods a larger

[07:35] font.

[07:36] >> You can ring in the margins.

[07:38] >> You can totally do it. I mean, we didn't

[07:40] need the origin story of Han Solo,

[07:42] Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker,

[07:44] Chewbacca, Lando cover, you know,

[07:46] everybody to watch Star Lando's in the

[07:47] second.

[07:48] >> No, but that was five cast members, not

[07:51] 50. Oh, Darth Vader, the Stormtroopers,

[07:54] you know, just every movie has a [ __ ]

[07:56] ton of characters in it. Like, but you

[07:58] don't

[07:59] >> like so much. Yeah, the Stormtroopers

[08:01] got me there.

[08:02] >> Yeah. But I'm saying like you don't need

[08:04] like all these buildup films for each

[08:07] character. You can have an ensemble cast

[08:08] and I think to a movie that'll work. Uh

[08:10] so, and if that's what they're saying is

[08:13] you can walk into Doomsday and just

[08:14] watch it. Sure. I don't know why they're

[08:17] feeling the need to say this is from

[08:19] scratch. This is phase zero. Everyone

[08:22] saw Avengers Endgame like multiple

[08:24] times. That movie nearly cracked three

[08:26] billion. So, I don't know why they're

[08:27] even really feeling the need to say it's

[08:29] completely from scratch. But I just wish

[08:32] they would be normal. And if they don't

[08:33] have anything to say about Doomsday yet,

[08:35] that's fine. Shut up. Just stop talking

[08:38] about Terry.

[08:39] >> Yeah,

[08:39] >> you don't have to. Nobody's holding a

[08:41] gun to your head. It's okay.

[08:43] >> Yeah.

[08:44] Well, Whitney, uh, I don't know. Tell me

[08:47] what you think here as far as this idea.

[08:49] What phase zero [ __ ] means? What?

[08:52] Okay, we should talk about phase zero

[08:54] then.

[08:54] >> What does that even mean?

[08:57] >> It's a prequel. Phase one confirmed.

[09:01] >> Yeah. Okay. So, this is the prequel. Is

[09:03] this the Phantom Menace of the MCU?

[09:05] Like, is that what are we going to get?

[09:07] Are we going to get Dr. Doom pod racing?

[09:09] Cuz that's what I want, baby.

[09:10] >> Godzilla minus one and phase one.

[09:13] >> Yes, exactly.

[09:14] >> I don't I don't think they literally

[09:16] meant it's phase zero, right? I do think

[09:19] what they mean though is they're trying

[09:20] to achieve something where you don't

[09:21] have to have seen the multiverse saga to

[09:23] come into this. I think what I think

[09:25] they have to do a very weird

[09:27] >> Well, but but that's the thing. It the

[09:29] reason why they did it is because

[09:30] corporate forced them to make too much

[09:32] [ __ ] for Disney Plus. So, they couldn't

[09:34] make Avengers movies over the past few

[09:36] years because it was logistically

[09:37] impossible because they were being asked

[09:38] to make hundreds of hours of content

[09:40] while also getting an Avengers movie

[09:42] ready for last year, which is what their

[09:44] original plan was. So, the fact that

[09:46] they've only they've not only been

[09:48] handed make a good movie, but make a

[09:50] good movie that wraps up this saga, oh,

[09:52] but that also ignores this saga seems

[09:55] very weird to me because the saga had

[09:58] good [ __ ] and I'm really disappointed

[10:00] that we're not that it's going to be

[10:02] focused on Steve Rogers and not Shani.

[10:05] I think I know what they might do with

[10:07] it. And it's kind of like the almost

[10:10] like the obvious thing to do, but they

[10:12] have a way to get out of it without it

[10:13] seeming cheap. And that is to keep the

[10:15] good and get rid of the bad, right?

[10:17] They're going to have some things from

[10:19] the Multiverse Saga that need to be

[10:21] known for this movie, right? You need to

[10:23] know what's going on with Loki. You're

[10:25] going to be very confused if you don't

[10:26] know what's going on with Loki. Good

[10:28] news is that one was a hit, right?

[10:30] They're not going to touch Secret

[10:31] Invasion, but good news there is not a

[10:34] lot of people watched that. Not a lot of

[10:35] people watched Iron Hart. Nobody watched

[10:37] Ekko. Like there's a bunch of things

[10:38] that they're just not going to touch

[10:40] because they don't need to. And I feel

[10:42] like the things that people actually

[10:44] watched like Wanda Division. Uh even if

[10:47] you didn't see Captain America, Brave

[10:49] New World, you probably watched Falcon

[10:52] and the Winter Soldier because it was

[10:53] the pandemic and everyone watched it.

[10:54] You know that Sam Wilson is Captain

[10:56] America. probably a lot of people

[10:58] watched Thunderbolts when it eventually

[10:59] came out on streaming, right? Like I

[11:01] know it didn't do well at the box

[11:02] office, but then the hype got around. I

[11:05] think they're going to acknowledge and

[11:07] use the good stuff as crucial plot

[11:09] points and everything that was not

[11:10] popular or didn't go over well, they're

[11:12] just gonna like

[11:14] >> Well, Mike, you're speaking in

[11:15] generalities a lot there. You know,

[11:17] you're saying like everybody did this.

[11:18] >> You want me to say specifics like who I

[11:20] think is staying and

[11:21] >> No, [laughter] no, no, no, no. Hold on.

[11:22] I got a followup. I got a followup for

[11:24] you. uh when when Doctor Strange

[11:26] Multiverse of Madness came out, a lot of

[11:28] like let's just say general audiences,

[11:30] civilians, and that movie made a lot of

[11:31] money, right? A lot of people showed up

[11:33] and were confused because they didn't

[11:34] watch Wision because not everybody has a

[11:36] Disney Plus subscription. Now, I know W

[11:38] Division obviously was watched by a lot

[11:40] of people, had a lot of buzz, but the

[11:42] normal people out there who don't follow

[11:44] who don't who aren't don't have YouTube

[11:46] channels um aren't necessarily following

[11:48] every single thing that comes out. And a

[11:49] lot of those people did skip

[11:51] Thunderbolts and all these other things.

[11:53] So, I mean, when you're talking about

[11:55] everybody saw this, I think you're

[11:56] talking about either the people who saw

[11:58] in the or the people with the Disney

[11:59] Plus subscription. And I that's why I do

[12:02] understand that they do kind of have to

[12:03] go back to Endgame and go, "Hey,

[12:05] remember this is a sequel to the last

[12:06] Avengers movie."

[12:09] >> Go ahead.

[12:11] I think more time has elapsed between

[12:14] when this movie is going to come out and

[12:17] when Loki came out or Wision came out

[12:19] compared to when Wision came out and

[12:21] Multiverse of Madness came out. I think

[12:23] by now, even if you didn't take the time

[12:25] to watch all of the shows on Disney

[12:29] Plus, there are these wonderful channels

[12:30] on YouTube that break down and summarize

[12:32] all of the things that happened at the

[12:33] plot points. I think a lot of people

[12:35] were like, "I'm going to skip that show,

[12:36] but I'll get the summary. I'll get the

[12:38] spark notes." And at least by now when

[12:40] you get to Doomsday, the people that

[12:43] care enough to clock the plot points

[12:45] will have caught themselves up even if

[12:47] they didn't want to commit a bunch of

[12:50] time to Hawkeye or whatever.

[12:52] >> I agree.

[12:53] >> If the Loki series or a YouTube channel

[12:57] recap is required viewing to see this

[13:00] movie, they have already failed going

[13:01] into it.

[13:02] >> Oh, yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. I didn't

[13:05] watch Loki.

[13:07] What? What, Whitney?

[13:08] >> Oh, I I know so many people who didn't

[13:10] watch Loki. I know so many people who

[13:12] fell off after pretty much Wanda

[13:14] Division and then they just kind of

[13:15] never got back on. So, it is I think it

[13:19] is

[13:20] >> really a huge disservice to all of the

[13:22] work that they did in the multiverse

[13:24] saga to have them say things like, "Oh,

[13:27] no. Don't worry. We're going back to

[13:28] phase zero. You guys won't have to know

[13:30] any of that [ __ ] we did. Haha. Can

[13:33] you believe we did all that crazy stuff?

[13:35] No more. No more. you don't have to

[13:37] worry about that ever again. That just

[13:39] does such a disservice to all of the

[13:41] really cool parts of the multiverse

[13:42] saga. So, I'm I'm a little annoyed with

[13:45] phase zero. I'm like, [ __ ] off. You're

[13:47] just not smart enough to think of a way

[13:49] to wrap it up good.

[13:50] >> And here's

[13:51] >> But even if they did wrap it up

[13:52] perfectly, I just kind of I was getting

[13:54] out with Mike. I think a lot of people

[13:55] the mo most people would What the who

[13:58] who is this? Like I don't who is this

[14:00] person? You know, a lot of that.

[14:02] >> Yeah. Well, and here's the good thing

[14:04] about this being a direct sequel to

[14:05] Endgame, which I called months before

[14:07] they said that. Let me do my little won

[14:10] a medal. Like, congratulations.

[14:13] So, she doesn't.

[14:15] Sorry. Wait a um

[14:17] >> Oh, no. It's okay.

[14:19] >> One of the great things about it being a

[14:20] direct sequel though, and I love Loki. I

[14:22] think a lot of people saw Loki, but I

[14:24] think anytime, even if it's a hit TV

[14:26] show, even like something like Wanda

[14:27] Vision that we were all uh in lockdown

[14:30] and like everybody watched it. You can't

[14:32] have a TV show be required viewing for a

[14:34] movie. I mean, I've said that till I'm

[14:35] as blue as this void behind me uh in the

[14:38] face. So, with Loki, you you have a huge

[14:43] loose end in Endgame that is directly

[14:46] tied to time travel and branching

[14:48] timelines [clears throat] and the

[14:49] multiverse. You could so easily with how

[14:52] Endgame ended and Steve going into the

[14:55] quantum realm and all that. There's

[14:56] gonna be a scene

[14:58] >> in Doomsday that they can so easily

[15:01] catch us up with a conversation between

[15:03] Loki and some other character to let

[15:05] everybody know, yeah, when you guys

[15:07] tampered with time, this thing happened.

[15:10] And that will tell you everything you

[15:11] need to know. And then that'll, you

[15:13] know, help the Loki series probably do

[15:14] even more numbers like, oh, maybe I'll

[15:16] go watch that series. But it if they

[15:18] just open with Loki sitting on the

[15:20] throne at the end of time and like don't

[15:22] even bother to like give us any

[15:24] information on that, which I do not

[15:26] think they'll do, that would be a very

[15:29] very big mistake. I think

[15:31] >> if they want to do real box office

[15:32] numbers, they will show Loki making out

[15:35] with Owen Wilson on the back of a

[15:36] [ __ ] jet ski like we all goddamn

[15:38] wanted. If that that's how they can hook

[15:40] me with phase zero.

[15:42] >> Let's go.

[15:43] >> But for real, Whitney, that should just

[15:44] be the trailer like that. Yeah, I don't

[15:46] know if you've ever seen Big Top

[15:47] Pee-Wee, but it has the longest on

[15:48] screen kiss of all time. It's just like

[15:50] a fivem minute push in followed by a

[15:51] fiveminute pull [laughter] out.

[15:53] >> Crazy. But

[15:55] >> I think that this whole like phase zero

[15:57] thing a five minute pull out. Ryan, tell

[16:00] us more about that.

[16:01] >> It kind of defeats the purpose. Go

[16:02] ahead.

[16:03] >> Yeah, [laughter] it's a real slow pull

[16:04] out game. I don't know about you.

[16:06] >> N

[16:08] Rozy, sorry, Mike. Go ahead. [laughter]

[16:10] What were you saying?

[16:10] >> No, you're fine. I was just going to say

[16:12] like I think this would be a stupid

[16:14] idea, but I'm trying to think of other

[16:15] interpretations of phase zero and it's

[16:17] like what if they're going to show us

[16:18] like ancient MCU? They're going to reset

[16:21] everything and then the first thing that

[16:23] we get is like the celestials. It's like

[16:25] we're rebooting and we're starting with

[16:26] Eternals again.

[16:28] >> Well,

[16:28] >> we're rebooting and we're starting with

[16:29] God in the Garden of Natural.

[16:32] >> There was a comic book called Marvel

[16:34] Saga that did that that like narrated

[16:37] the whole [ __ ] thing from the start.

[16:38] Sorry, Whitney. Go ahead.

[16:40] Starting with the Garden of Eden.

[16:42] >> Yeah. No, starting at the Garden of

[16:43] Eden, baby. Let's go. Let's go back.

[16:45] >> I'd be down to see a Thor movie that's

[16:47] set in ancient Viking times. Like,

[16:50] that'd be sick, right? If we got a a

[16:52] Thor movie set in like 500 AD, like

[16:55] that'd be dope.

[16:56] >> Well, okay, you bring up you bring up a

[16:58] good point. I want to circle back to

[17:00] talking about Loki and stuff, but I want

[17:01] to talk about this in a bit, so I'll

[17:02] just bring it up now. So, the idea that

[17:04] they keep bringing up where Feige said

[17:06] at one point, we're going to do a soft

[17:07] reset, right? I think we've talked about

[17:09] this on various live streams before, but

[17:12] I'm kind of like looking back and going,

[17:14] there are some things that would be

[17:15] really cool to do. Now, obviously, you

[17:17] can reccon Secret Invasion. It never

[17:19] happened and you can do a real Secret

[17:20] Invasion movie like it should have been.

[17:22] But also, you brought up a good point

[17:23] because Thor was not in like one of the

[17:27] problem people have with the movies is

[17:28] that he uh he's a little kid during

[17:30] Norse times. So, where did the legend of

[17:32] Thor come from? So maybe that's one of

[17:34] those things they can reccon in this new

[17:37] universe where Thor was active during he

[17:40] was born in year zero and not year 500.

[17:42] That's a kind of a cool thing they could

[17:43] adapt and change. And I love that idea.

[17:46] >> Here's the reason it's called phase

[17:48] zero. Like seriously or not that it's

[17:50] called phase zero, but I I think I know.

[17:51] Was it Joe that said Joe Russo that said

[17:53] this? It's usually him that says all the

[17:55] talking. He's like,

[17:57] >> "Yeah, he's the taco."

[17:58] >> Um, I think what it means is I if you've

[18:02] read the 2015 Secret Wars, you know, and

[18:04] they're adapting it and time Runs Out is

[18:06] really going with Doomsday. We're going

[18:08] to see the multiverse collapse.

[18:10] >> We're going to get Battle World and then

[18:13] at the end of Secret Wars, we're going

[18:15] to get a brand new universe. And there's

[18:17] an interview they did a few months back.

[18:20] I forget which outlet it was with where

[18:22] they mentioned the Russos mentioned that

[18:24] this is not so much an ending as it is a

[18:27] beginning. And I think that's pretty

[18:29] much what they're saying here is that I

[18:31] I do think that Doomsday is going to

[18:33] feel like a a final chapter in a lot of

[18:36] ways. But then probably about midway

[18:37] through the film or in the third act is

[18:39] when we see that phase zero start and

[18:42] that's when this new beginning to this

[18:45] new universe that leads into the mutant

[18:46] saga begins. So I think

[18:48] >> all of their marketing I agree because

[18:50] all the marketing is based on

[18:51] countdowns.

[18:52] >> Yeah.

[18:52] >> So you count down to zero. I think maybe

[18:54] that's what they're going for with it.

[18:55] That makes total sense. Um but also it's

[18:58] the cycle of the universe. I mean most

[19:01] astrophysicists believe that you know we

[19:03] began with the big bang and that there's

[19:06] two theories. Either the universe keeps

[19:08] expanding forever until atoms are, you

[19:10] know, millions of light years apart or

[19:12] it hits a certain point and then

[19:13] coaleses into a big crunch which then

[19:15] starts the cycle again

[19:16] >> like collapses.

[19:17] >> And that cycle

[19:18] >> is what they do in the Marvel comics.

[19:19] That's where Galactus comes from. He's a

[19:21] holdover from the previous universe.

[19:22] >> No idea what you're talking about, man.

[19:24] God made the Earth in seven days. Says

[19:26] so in the Bible.

[19:27] >> Says so in the Bible.

[19:27] >> Also got that.

[19:28] >> No such thing as dinosaurs. Dinosaurs

[19:31] are wrong because those aren't in the

[19:32] Bible. And that's why we're talking

[19:34] about the fiction of the Marvel

[19:35] Cinematic Universe, guys, not the real

[19:37] world that you guys live in.

[19:39] >> The real visualiz MCU where evolution in

[19:43] the Big Bang exists. Yes.

[19:44] >> Yes.

[19:45] >> Exactly.

[19:45] >> They visualize the big crunch though in

[19:47] Loki, like tying it back to Loki. Yeah.

[19:50] In the in the finale of Loki, they show

[19:52] that

[19:53] >> it collapse and then go back in on

[19:54] itself and then the big bang happened

[19:56] again. Yeah.

[19:57] >> Yeah. Exactly. And the black holes are

[19:59] also tied.

[20:01] >> Yeah. Black holes are also tied to um

[20:04] the multiverse itself because in that

[20:06] same sequence you're talking about the

[20:07] start of Loki 106, the camera pulls out

[20:10] again. Takes like five minutes to pull

[20:12] all the way out and then um [laughter]

[20:14] and

[20:16] 13

[20:18] [laughter]

[20:21] >> and then uh you um and then like it goes

[20:24] into another universe through the other

[20:25] black hole it's like next to. So yes,

[20:27] that is like then uh Oraoris keeps

[20:31] describing like yeah, you know, it's

[20:32] like when you you the black hole turns

[20:34] you into spaghetti and then we see

[20:35] that's what incursions also do. They

[20:36] turn people into spaghetti and this like

[20:39] weird, you know, noodle kind of look

[20:41] like we saw in the end of Loki season 2.

[20:44] So Loki is kind of at the the center of

[20:46] this, which is unfortunate because it

[20:47] was a streaming show that is very

[20:50] complicated to explain to people. And

[20:51] I'm curious how you guys think they

[20:53] should or would or could address Loki

[20:56] and his new role in the show because if

[20:57] you if you pull somebody off the street,

[20:59] it's insane. It's Oh, did you see the

[21:01] Avengers movies? Oh, yeah. I like those.

[21:02] Did you like Loki? Oh, yeah. He died,

[21:04] right? Well, no, he didn't die. He went

[21:06] to this place with these time cops,

[21:08] right? And so there's this thing and

[21:09] this guy is the center of the universe.

[21:11] It is so [ __ ] weird and so hard to

[21:13] explain. So, how do you bring him in as

[21:16] the guy who can explain things to people

[21:18] while you also have to I want to hear

[21:20] some theories.

[21:21] >> I think it's exactly like Colton said,

[21:23] they bring him back and it's just one of

[21:24] those things where like you didn't need

[21:26] to see what happened with him at the TVA

[21:28] and everything. You saw him go through a

[21:30] time door. He comes back out through a

[21:31] time door. This is kind of like his

[21:33] Gandalf the White moment, right? like

[21:35] Loki returns, but he's changed

[21:37] >> and we don't need to know how he changed

[21:40] or why he changed. I mean,

[21:41] >> he's gayer now. Spoiler.

[21:44] >> He's much gayer now. He's much more

[21:45] fluid.

[21:46] >> Way gayer.

[21:47] >> Loki, they are very fluid and

[21:50] >> much. Let me have it.

[21:51] >> But when Gandalf the White came back,

[21:53] there was a flashback, right? He he

[21:55] didn't just narrate

[21:56] >> eventually, right? But like not

[21:58] >> Well, no. He shows up and then like he

[22:00] shows up and then he's like, "Oh, I

[22:02] fought the thing." And they're showing

[22:03] all that stuff like they're showing what

[22:05] happens to them as he tells them.

[22:06] >> I think they need to have the flashback.

[22:08] >> I I'm notorious.

[22:10] >> Oh, go ahead.

[22:11] >> No,

[22:12] >> you don't think they'll do that in a

[22:13] flashback? Um I'm notorious for hating

[22:16] exposition, but I I love it when it's

[22:18] between two characters that actually

[22:20] need to share information with one

[22:22] another in a story. So, if he if we see

[22:24] Loki like encounter Thor or encounter

[22:27] Steve Rogers and just say, "Hey, you

[22:30] know that thing you did in Endgame?" And

[22:32] hey, hey everybody watching, you know

[22:33] too because I know you saw the movie

[22:35] like twice.

[22:36] >> You know that thing that happened? Oh

[22:38] well I I went to the end of time and I

[22:40] saw the m just like three sentences. I

[22:42] went to the end of time. I saw the the

[22:45] universe dying. You know pretty much

[22:47] that speech that Kane gave to Janet just

[22:49] reps.

[22:51] I don't know what else to tell you.

[22:52] >> That's the only problem with this now

[22:54] that we're like like really working it

[22:56] out is if he has that conversation, how

[22:58] does he not include that conversation?

[23:00] Oh, and by the way, there's this guy

[23:01] called King the Conqueror and then we

[23:03] get into a whole thing about Kingway.

[23:06] >> All right. Well, let's get the King and

[23:07] >> Loki does the exposition. He has to talk

[23:09] about Kang. If we talk about King in

[23:11] this movie, I will say this why he's not

[23:13] in this movie.

[23:14] >> There's a really good reason for him to

[23:16] do the exposition to whoever he talks

[23:18] to. If he talks to a hero, if it's Thor,

[23:21] he's going to grab his hammer and maybe

[23:23] not realize, you know, or Captain

[23:24] America would definitely think because

[23:25] he doesn't know that Loki was reformed.

[23:27] So, I think he would react offensively

[23:28] and then Loki has to explain that as

[23:31] Whitney just said, so well, he's a big

[23:33] tree now.

[23:34] >> But then what about K?

[23:36] >> Is he just getting ignored because of

[23:37] the Loki finale? Is he just not

[23:40] >> mention?

[23:41] >> I might. Yeah, I don't think you need to

[23:43] mention Kang. I I think that Kang is I

[23:47] mean, he's really irrelevant to our

[23:49] current state is that Loki understands

[23:52] the multiverse is collapsing. He's

[23:54] trying to fix it. There are many people

[23:56] who have tried to, you know, conquer the

[23:58] multiverse in the past, blah, blah,

[24:00] blah. Our our latest threat is this Dr.

[24:02] Doom guy. Like that. That's all he needs

[24:04] to say. That the multiverse is vast.

[24:05] It's dying. I'm trying to save it. That

[24:08] I don't think you need to mention Kane.

[24:09] really

[24:10] >> if you think about it from the

[24:11] perspective of a fan who has only seen

[24:12] the movies and the shows and does not

[24:14] know anything about the outside world

[24:16] and what went on with Jonathan Majors

[24:18] and any of that doesn't know that he's

[24:19] not able to return and all of that they

[24:22] would think okay yeah well that big

[24:23] thing with the Council of Kings that's

[24:25] like when we saw Thanos at the end of

[24:27] the first Avengers movie but he didn't

[24:28] show up until Infinity War so maybe in

[24:32] their minds or at least from like a

[24:33] naive audience's perspective oh Kang is

[24:36] still coming but he's further down the

[24:37] line and he's worse than Duke And then I

[24:40] don't know, at some point they either

[24:41] recast Kang or do away with that. But I

[24:44] don't think they need to address it.

[24:45] >> Well, he has to go on a podcast and

[24:47] explain uh [laughter] that uh Kang Kang

[24:51] works with Ben Shapiro now and

[24:54] [laughter] we don't talk to him anymore.

[24:56] I just really I don't think anyone

[24:59] I don't think anyone's going to go into

[25:00] Doomsday and ask where's Kane because I

[25:02] mean we're certainly not going to ask

[25:04] because we know either

[25:05] >> and I don't think any general audience

[25:07] member is going to care to ask.

[25:09] >> I don't think the general audience is

[25:11] going to care either but at the same

[25:13] time it just

[25:15] >> this isn't necessarily like a thing

[25:16] where I think that people are going to

[25:18] go into this movie and BE LIKE WHAT WHAT

[25:20] HAPPENED TO KANG? WHERE DID THAT GUY GO?

[25:22] I think that it's more of the fact that

[25:25] it's like this is like another

[25:28] thing in a long line of things that they

[25:32] will seemingly never wrap up. And I

[25:34] think that that's kind of more so the

[25:36] issue than any one of those specific

[25:39] things not coming back. Like I do I need

[25:43] to see Harry Styles in the MCU? No. It

[25:46] will change my life 0%. Yeah, it it'll

[25:49] change my life 0%. But they put those

[25:52] things in front of me and then they're

[25:53] just either never going to tell me or

[25:55] they're going to tell me so far into the

[25:57] future that it kind of won't matter at

[25:59] that point.

[26:00] >> 16 years in the future and explained by

[26:01] a newscast. Yeah.

[26:02] >> No. Exactly. Exactly. And so I just I I

[26:05] think that that's more so the

[26:07] frustrating thing for me. It's I think

[26:08] it's going to be less that people are

[26:10] like, "Oh man, what happened to that

[26:12] Kang fellow?" I think it's more going to

[26:14] be why the [ __ ] do they keep giving us

[26:16] these huge plot points and these like

[26:19] crazy like postredit scenes cliffhers

[26:22] that imply so much and then never do

[26:25] anything with it.

[26:27] >> I think we're kind of not addressing the

[26:28] elephant in the room here and that is

[26:29] that when the MCU was in its heyday in

[26:31] the Infinity Saga, right? Like when

[26:33] Captain America: Civil War was so good

[26:36] and everybody went to go watch it, and I

[26:38] say everybody like Marvel fans multiple

[26:41] times, but civilians, people off the

[26:42] street, then they saw that movie and

[26:44] they went, "Oh, Spider-Man. Oh, Black

[26:46] Panther. What's up with them?" They saw

[26:48] Infinity War. They saw the end credits

[26:50] and they said, "Oh, who's that about?

[26:51] Who's Captain Marvel?" Something has to

[26:54] be good in order to feed people the next

[26:56] thing. And Marvel kind of hit this mid I

[26:58] don't want to call it superhero fatigue.

[26:59] I think it was mid fatigue. So the Russo

[27:02] brothers now have to kind of go through

[27:04] and go, well, what's worth mentioning?

[27:06] What what did people care about? What

[27:08] resonated with people? And like you

[27:10] said, Colton, Quantum Mania had like an

[27:12] 80% drop off in its second weekend. I

[27:14] think it was pretty bad. Like whatever

[27:15] it was,

[27:16] >> 69

[27:20] brothers, what they dedicate time to

[27:21] explaining, right? I think again this

[27:24] supports my theory that they're going to

[27:25] spend time, a little bit of exposition

[27:27] time explaining the things that are

[27:28] important that people might not know,

[27:30] but the things that are important that

[27:31] they feel like people definitely already

[27:32] know, they're not going to spend time

[27:34] on. They did not spend time in Infinity

[27:36] War explaining who Thanos was. They did

[27:39] spend time in Endgame explaining what

[27:41] the Aether is because probably not a lot

[27:44] of people saw Thor in the dark world,

[27:46] right? So, they're like,

[27:47] >> "Whatever we know is popular, we're not

[27:49] going to waste time explaining. If

[27:51] there's something that's not as popular,

[27:53] didn't get the credit it deserved, or

[27:55] didn't get the viewership it deserved,

[27:56] but we feel like it's important enough

[27:58] to be a part of this movie, we will

[28:00] dedicate two minutes of exposition to

[28:02] that topic.

[28:03] >> Did we tell me? Oh, go ahead, Colin.

[28:04] Sorry.

[28:05] >> Did we meet Maria Hill before the first

[28:07] Avengers movie?

[28:09] >> Yes. No.

[28:10] >> No.

[28:11] >> No.

[28:11] >> No.

[28:12] >> No. She's not an Iron Man, too. She

[28:13] >> They didn't do any

[28:15] >> background, who her parents are, where

[28:17] she came from, the trauma she went

[28:19] through as a child. We didn't need any

[28:20] of that. We just got it. Like she was

[28:22] there.

[28:23] >> She's a woman. She's a soldier. She's

[28:24] She's in a uniform.

[28:25] >> It's mandatory in the MCU to tell people

[28:27] if you're an orphan, Colton. You have to

[28:29] [ __ ] tell.

[28:30] >> Yeah. Especially if you have dad issues.

[28:33] >> Yeah.

[28:33] >> Well, let me ask. What What is one thing

[28:36] you go ahead?

[28:37] >> No, I was just say my point is is that

[28:39] with what's his name? The [ __ ]

[28:42] Captain America guy. Uh [snorts]

[28:45] >> John Walker, Wyatt Russell Walker,

[28:47] >> Johnny Mayonnaise.

[28:48] >> All of these characters. You don't have

[28:50] to.

[28:50] >> I don't know who Sam Wilson you were

[28:52] trying to think of. If it was like, what

[28:53] was that guy's name? The one I really

[28:54] didn't like. Sam Wilson. That was

[28:55] >> Yeah. Yeah. Tommy, not my Captain. Yeah.

[28:58] Anyway [laughter]

[28:59] >> Tommy says it all the time.

[29:01] >> Yeah, I know he does.

[29:01] >> Yeah. When he's not on the podcast.

[29:03] Yeah. Out of nowhere.

[29:05] [laughter]

[29:06] >> I've heard the kitchen sink.

[29:08] >> Yeah. I've just I've heard Tommy just

[29:10] say that at random times.

[29:11] >> I just think a lot of those characters

[29:13] are just kind of You get it. You don't

[29:15] have to have all this background stuff.

[29:17] You just kind of get it. like, oh, okay,

[29:19] >> you're Yeah, you're bringing up Maria

[29:20] Hill, who is like shield soldier number

[29:22] one. I mean, that's like you didn't have

[29:24] to know a lot about her, but like for

[29:26] instance, Shani shows up, right? Shani

[29:29] is somebody who I think has something

[29:32] that will be in this movie. You know,

[29:33] Whitney, you mentioned those postredits

[29:35] teases that won't be mentioned, like

[29:36] Brett Goldstein, Hercules, Star Fox, but

[29:38] if the Eternals would have been a big

[29:40] hit, absolutely they would be in this

[29:41] movie. But I do think that the beacon at

[29:44] the end of Shani is going to be

[29:45] addressed somehow and that'll be what

[29:47] draws him into the movie in some way. So

[29:50] there are going to be ways where I think

[29:51] the Eternals just won't get mentioned.

[29:54] And if they ever do, it'll be in some

[29:55] sequel involving Star-Lord, I hope, or

[29:57] something like that. But in this movie,

[29:58] maybe they'll be in Secret Wars. We did

[30:00] a video about that a while back. But

[30:02] what do you guys think is going to be

[30:03] the thing that we'll stay in that that

[30:06] they can use from the multiverse saga to

[30:07] address? And then we name one thing that

[30:10] they kind of just are going to show up.

[30:11] pull out.

[30:12] >> Yeah.

[30:13] >> Yeah. Yeah. What are we going to pull

[30:14] on? How long is it going to take?

[30:16] [laughter]

[30:16] >> The black hole. Pull out. Takes a long

[30:19] time.

[30:21] >> One more. We get demonetized.

[30:24] [laughter]

[30:24] >> Seriously. And

[30:26] >> And if you're listening to us on any

[30:27] podcast platform, you have no idea

[30:29] what's we're doing right now. Like the

[30:31] visuals are so gross.

[30:32] >> Um

[30:34] shirt.

[30:35] >> He does have a nice nautical shirt on.

[30:37] Uh do you guys have one thing of each?

[30:41] One thing to keep and one thing to get

[30:42] rid of.

[30:43] >> One thing to keep, one thing you think

[30:44] they get rid of it

[30:46] >> in Doomsday or like a after the reboot.

[30:50] >> Let's do Doomsday for now. Like because

[30:51] we're talking about like what they're

[30:52] going to do in the movie, what they're

[30:53] going to ignore in the multiverse saga

[30:55] and then a little bit let's talk about

[30:56] the actual reset and what we expect from

[30:58] there.

[30:59] >> Like I think Sean's beacon is a little

[31:02] ambiguous there. I think here we're

[31:03] talking about get rid of in terms of

[31:04] what do they not even bother mentioning.

[31:06] >> Exactly. We'll see of course. Um,

[31:10] [clears throat]

[31:10] >> so no Gaia. I think that's good. Yeah,

[31:13] >> that's one.

[31:13] >> I think you're right.

[31:14] >> Because it wasn't popular and it was a

[31:16] Disney Plus show and ultimately you

[31:18] don't need her in the movie. Like scroll

[31:20] scrolls were inconsequential in the

[31:21] Marvels, let alone in Avengers Doomsday.

[31:24] That's a great one.

[31:24] >> Yeah, and I agree with Mike. I think I

[31:26] think no young Avengers I don't think

[31:28] we're going to get any of them

[31:29] >> really for possibly Wiccan and Speed. I

[31:32] don't know. Maybe only because of Wanda,

[31:35] but I don't think Um,

[31:37] >> we're not getting M Marvel.

[31:38] >> A guy. We don't get Ms. Marvel.

[31:40] >> I think the Young Avengers Secret Wars.

[31:42] >> Yeah. And I think that's going to be

[31:43] Secret Wars like in the end.

[31:45] >> Yeah. And Secret Wars, but yeah, I don't

[31:46] think that they're going to put those

[31:47] guys in this one.

[31:49] >> I Do you think it's a postredit scene?

[31:52] >> Maybe.

[31:53] >> Possibly.

[31:55] >> Calls Kate Bishop and is like, "Hey, we

[31:57] need we need 2% more help from you and a

[32:01] bunch of teenagers. Go get Patriot. Go

[32:03] get

[32:04] >> I don't know whoever else. Who who have

[32:05] they established? Go get Scar. We need

[32:07] Scar.

[32:07] >> Do you guys think that we could have a

[32:09] postredit scene?

[32:11] >> Do you think a postredit scene would

[32:12] work? So, Colton, you did a great video

[32:14] a few weeks back where you talked about

[32:15] the young Avengers and how they could be

[32:16] the ones on the ark that like where

[32:18] their memories are preserved. So, when

[32:20] the new universe starts, everybody

[32:21] worships Doom except for them. I wonder

[32:22] if a postredit scene where they're just

[32:24] on a ship would work, you know, and they

[32:26] would be like a scene from Secret Wars,

[32:28] but we get to see them. They're

[32:30] together. We go, "Oh, who are they?

[32:31] What? They're the saviors, these kids."

[32:33] You know what I mean? And then maybe in

[32:35] Secret Wars, we see how they got on the

[32:37] ship or what the story was there. That'd

[32:38] be kind of cool.

[32:40] >> Yeah. I I like the idea of like our

[32:42] heroes and I mean this basically what I

[32:44] got into in that video, but we know that

[32:47] the Avengers and the X-Men, the

[32:49] Fantastic 4 that they're not going to be

[32:51] like down on the ground fighting like

[32:54] Doombots in New York City. I think

[32:55] that's where the Young Avengers could

[32:57] come in and that that's where they could

[32:59] like as the universe is collapsing. I

[33:03] don't know who who all would be a part

[33:04] of it. I I forget who I even had.

[33:06] >> Street level street level people would

[33:08] also be a part of that fight. Right. So

[33:09] we got Young Avengers and then we also

[33:11] got Daredevil Punisher

[33:13] >> Luke Cage. Wow.

[33:14] >> I mean the the Daredevil born again

[33:16] season 3 of it all is very confusing

[33:18] because that movie is going to come out

[33:19] or that show Spider-Man after Doomsday

[33:22] but before Secret Wars and Yeah.

[33:23] Exactly.

[33:24] >> We have to remember that Cassie Lang is

[33:27] very knowledgeable of the quantum realm.

[33:30] >> And Kank

[33:31] >> that is true.

[33:32] >> Yeah. and she is now connected, I think,

[33:34] with because we know that

[33:37] >> Camala is going to get her and she got

[33:40] Kate Bishop first. So, I could see those

[33:43] three maybe being the the core like

[33:45] young Avengers that we see going to the

[33:48] quantum realm via like a a raft or

[33:50] something. Yeah, that'd be neat.

[33:51] >> I would be shocked if Vision Quest

[33:54] doesn't end with Wiccan showing up to

[33:56] find his brother and saying, "Let's go

[33:58] get our mom."

[33:59] >> I think that's the big thing they're

[34:00] setting up for Secret Wars. And then

[34:02] those guys run into the three of them.

[34:04] So yeah, those are all things I think

[34:05] they'll keep, but not necessarily in

[34:07] Doomsday.

[34:07] >> And where is their mom?

[34:10] >> In the void.

[34:11] >> Yeah, which is division.

[34:13] >> Battle.

[34:14] >> Yeah.

[34:15] >> And then Wision book ends the whole

[34:16] saga. I would love that. No, I think

[34:18] you're 100% right.

[34:20] >> Is there anything else you guys think

[34:21] they're for sure going to keep or is

[34:23] necessary for Doomsday?

[34:25] >> She-Hulk twerking. They're keeping it.

[34:26] They're keeping it. I'm calling it.

[34:28] She-Hulk twerking all day, all night.

[34:30] Doomsday that butt. Let's go.

[34:33] >> Hey, I've said it a hundred times. Megan

[34:35] the Stallion is one of the coolest

[34:36] artists I've ever worked with. Like

[34:37] before she was actually famous, she came

[34:39] in the room and she could just tell she

[34:40] was gonna

[34:44] heard

[34:44] >> this.

[34:46] No, no. I filmed I filmed it for XL.

[34:49] >> I filmed her for XL for freshman years

[34:51] ago.

[34:51] >> Oh, okay.

[34:52] >> I have no idea.

[34:53] >> No, no. It's I've talked about it

[34:54] before. I'm not trying to like brag. I

[34:56] don't really care. Yeah. No, she's I

[34:58] mean I just didn't know.

[34:59] >> No, but that's awesome.

[35:00] >> Well, anyway, I was pissing next to

[35:01] George Clooney and I was talking to him

[35:03] about, you know, my taxes. Yeah,

[35:05] >> I pissed next to Tony Iomi once, which

[35:07] was really weird. That was a strange

[35:09] like Yeah, the hand holding That's the

[35:11] hand that made Heavy Metal that created

[35:13] Heavy Metal and I'm right next to it.

[35:15] >> Anyways, let's talk about what happens

[35:17] after this reboot and then maybe we'll

[35:19] talk about the Spider-Man trailer that

[35:20] leaked and I definitely didn't watch the

[35:22] leak. So,

[35:24] >> whale fall.

[35:25] >> Exactly. And then we have to get to the

[35:26] people that they want.

[35:28] >> What do you guys feel like you're

[35:30] looking forward to the most about the

[35:32] soft reset?

[35:35] >> Oh, and Monica Monica is going to be

[35:37] picked up on because we know she's in

[35:38] the X-Men universe. Sorry, I meant to

[35:40] say that.

[35:40] >> Oh, yeah. Yeah. No, no, Monica will be

[35:41] in the movie. You're right. Yeah. Yeah.

[35:43] I 100% think because she's the one who

[35:44] can explain things to people. Wait, it's

[35:47] like when Leia when the Ewoks are about

[35:49] to eat Luke and Han and then Leia shows

[35:51] up and explains what's going on to them.

[35:52] I think that's I think is Leia.

[35:55] >> They're from the Marvel movies before

[35:57] Iron Man. They're cool.

[35:59] [laughter]

[36:00] >> Yeah, exactly.

[36:00] >> I don't think you need a lot of

[36:01] exposition for uh Photon because she's

[36:05] uh was in Wavision. It's another thing

[36:07] that a lot a long time ago. They might

[36:09] not see the Marvels. So, they got to be

[36:11] like

[36:12] >> Monica Rambo could be in this movie, but

[36:14] likely Carol Danvers won't. I mean, this

[36:17] is somebody who headed a billion-dollar

[36:18] film, and I don't even know if uh Brie

[36:22] Larson

[36:23] >> wants to come back at all.

[36:25] >> Will I think it's a surprise or

[36:27] something, or maybe they're not putting

[36:29] her on the advertising because they

[36:30] think it'll be have a negative reaction

[36:32] if they advertise that she's in the

[36:34] movie, which is

[36:35] >> screwed up, but

[36:37] >> yeah.

[36:37] >> What was your question about the what

[36:39] we're looking forward to in the reset?

[36:41] >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. If you guys want to

[36:42] pivot over to that if we're done talking

[36:44] about Doomsday,

[36:46] X-Men. I just I can't wait to see like

[36:50] in the actual MCU like in a live action

[36:52] film with other superheroes. I've only

[36:54] ever seen the X-Men in things with other

[36:56] X-Men.

[36:57] >> Yeah, that's true.

[36:58] >> Other than the cartoons, which I grew up

[37:00] on and absolutely loved, but those

[37:02] crossover episodes where like Captain

[37:03] America would show up and like go on a

[37:06] mission with Wolverine were the best.

[37:08] >> Yeah, for sure.

[37:09] >> Fantastic.

[37:11] >> Yeah, same.

[37:13] looking forward to seeing them get to

[37:14] >> the best.

[37:16] >> I just want to see them get to a point

[37:17] where they're a little bit more back to

[37:19] the comics and less away and less away

[37:21] from the movies, right? Because Robert

[37:23] No, but seriously, like Robert Downey

[37:24] Jr. became Tony Stark. He embodied the

[37:27] character in a way that like and and

[37:29] that gave Tony Stark an outsized

[37:30] importance that he's important character

[37:33] in the comics, especially during the

[37:35] events of Civil War and the fallout

[37:36] afterwards, but nobody would ever be

[37:38] like, "Oh, yeah, Iron Man's the flagship

[37:40] hero of Marvel comics." I would really

[37:42] like to see a Marvel universe where all

[37:43] these characters are back, Steve Rogers,

[37:45] Iron Man, whoever, and just recast and

[37:47] just kind of go back to adapting those

[37:49] stories because I think the movies in

[37:51] more ways than one. The movies even

[37:53] started to affect the comic publishing

[37:54] for a while where Marvel started to hand

[37:56] down edicts that you couldn't create

[37:57] more X-Men characters when the rights

[37:58] were held by Fox. And I loved these

[38:00] movies the most when it was taking those

[38:03] comics and giving them like cool spins

[38:05] in the real world and adapting them

[38:07] straight. And as soon as they moved too

[38:08] far away from it, I think it lost the

[38:10] magic. No, I 100% agree. I think that a

[38:13] lot of like my disappointment with the

[38:15] most like some of not all obviously I

[38:18] still like a lot of these movies and

[38:19] shows of course but like some of my

[38:20] disappointment comes from the fact of

[38:24] that like that we don't um [ __ ] sorry I

[38:28] lost my train of thought. What was I

[38:29] just going to say?

[38:30] >> That's okay. Well, I was talking about

[38:31] comics and adapt like when I watched the

[38:33] battle of New York it felt like I was

[38:35] watching a splash panel.

[38:36] >> Yes, that's exactly what I was gonna

[38:37] Yes. So, it it really bothered me that

[38:40] back in the day you could do really

[38:42] cool, solid theorizing about what might

[38:46] happen based on the comic books that

[38:48] you'd read and you knew that they were

[38:50] going to change it. Like you knew that

[38:51] like things were going to be different.

[38:53] So, you didn't fully know like what was

[38:55] going to happen in the story. But I love

[38:58] that the comics used to be like a little

[39:01] road map for these movies and that it

[39:04] was for people who if you knew, you

[39:07] knew, but you didn't have to like read

[39:09] them to go in and enjoy it. And I do

[39:11] really miss that. I really really miss

[39:14] having things that feel more comic booky

[39:17] and less comic book movie. Uh so I I I

[39:21] also hope that they return to that.

[39:24] >> Also, a unified plan will be really good

[39:26] to have. You know how like in the MCU

[39:28] they used to do so many projects that

[39:29] with they used to have so much time

[39:31] between projects that they could do

[39:33] things like um

[39:36] like when Hydra's forces fire their guns

[39:38] they're from the test rack they sound

[39:40] like Tony Stark's arc like his um his

[39:43] arc reactor because it turn you know you

[39:45] can theorize then like you're saying

[39:46] Whitney the arc reactor then must have

[39:48] been derived from the technology from

[39:50] the tesseract that Howard so there were

[39:52] all these little things they could do

[39:54] but right now when they're making so

[39:56] stuff and I love a lot of the stuff

[39:58] they've made, you know, but when they're

[39:59] making so much,

[40:00] >> creators get siloed from each other and

[40:02] it's harder for people to kind of pick

[40:04] up and coordinate and add to, you know,

[40:06] my favorite example ever is the idea of

[40:09] Doctor Strange seeing all those

[40:10] realities. They got that from Doctor

[40:12] Strange and the ancient one saying she

[40:13] saw possible futures. So, I want these

[40:15] people to be able to build on each

[40:16] other. Sorry, Colton.

[40:17] >> They need someone

[40:19] I'm available. uh who can

[40:22] >> who can come in and kind of just be

[40:25] someone who pops into every room and

[40:29] like can go into an editing room when

[40:32] they're editing a battle sequence or

[40:34] doing the sound design and say, "Hey,

[40:35] you know what would be cool is if you

[40:38] use this same sound effect from these

[40:40] blasters in this movie that when they

[40:41] were on that same plant." Like just

[40:43] little interconnectivity stuff like

[40:44] that. It used to be Kevin Feige before

[40:46] he became like the head of a studio

[40:48] watered down.

[40:49] >> Maybe like a fan or something like

[40:52] that'd be a cool role like

[40:53] >> Well, it used to be the creative

[40:55] committee and thank god it's not.

[40:56] >> Can you imagine the job applications for

[40:58] fan leaison? Those would [laughter] be

[40:59] the most toxic [ __ ] job applications

[41:02] at the

[41:03] >> Oh man, that I would that could just be

[41:06] a YouTube channel just reading them out

[41:08] loud.

[41:09] You know what though? What you're

[41:10] talking about is even less likely to

[41:12] happen because they fired thousands of

[41:14] people from their visv department and

[41:16] that department is the reason why all

[41:19] the MCU movies kind of felt like they

[41:21] took place in the same universe which

[41:23] wasn't always a good thing because the

[41:24] look got stale. But sorry right on what

[41:26] you're saying.

[41:27] >> Oh no. All I was going to say is um they

[41:29] should let me audition for Wolverine

[41:31] because uh I'd be great.

[41:32] >> I keep saying bring a lot of I'm not

[41:34] even kidding. I'm a good actor. I'm like

[41:36] a short angry Sicilian guy. going to ask

[41:38] how tall are you because

[41:40] >> so much authenticity to the role like

[41:42] >> hell yeah hell yeah

[41:43] >> I could do the nose snarl

[41:45] >> this is me standing

[41:45] >> a shot

[41:46] >> or at least [laughter]

[41:48] >> read read my war machine spec script

[41:50] just do that

[41:51] >> okay

[41:53] >> someone someone's got to write a war

[41:54] machine spec script all right Colton go

[41:55] for it

[41:55] >> another title

[41:57] >> read it

[41:57] >> another good title for this this role

[41:59] that I'm totally not pitching for myself

[42:01] I love my job uh but I I could do it

[42:03] like at night or something I don't know

[42:05] um yeah

[42:06] >> is if you got offered a job at Marvel

[42:08] and you passed it up to keep working

[42:10] here. I'd be like Ben Affleck in

[42:13] Goodwill Hunting. I'd [ __ ] kill you.

[42:14] Like [laughter]

[42:15] >> if I come to door in 20 years and you're

[42:17] still there, I'm going to [ __ ] kill

[42:18] you. Sorry guys.

[42:19] >> [ __ ] kill you. They need the um

[42:20] actually. They need somebody on set who

[42:23] kind of like a script supervisor who

[42:25] like maintains continuity and stuff.

[42:27] They need somebody there that can kind

[42:28] of do the well actually and like

[42:31] somebody to speak up for Elizabeth Olsen

[42:33] when she's trying to tell them you're

[42:36] kind of retreading what we already went

[42:38] over division but it needs to be

[42:40] somebody with power. It needs to be

[42:42] >> somebody to be like

[42:44] >> Nate Moore Brad Winterbomb somebody like

[42:46] Liberty should actually be copper at

[42:48] this point because not enough time has

[42:49] passed for the oxidization to occur.

[42:52] >> It needs to be someone who

[42:56] >> Yeah.

[42:56] >> Yes. But they but it has to be someone

[42:58] that has a title like in all seriousness

[43:00] like an executive producer title where

[43:02] they have the authority to walk up to

[43:04] the director and say

[43:06] >> hey you need to do this. It can't just

[43:07] be some you know like slightly above

[43:10] intern guy who's like well actually you

[43:12] know in the in this issue or whatever.

[43:14] No it has to be like somebody with some

[43:15] authority to go in there and can

[43:17] actually demand hey this is wrong. We

[43:20] need to adjust this. Did you ever hear

[43:22] Sam Witworth's story about Padme?

[43:25] Uh, and when his first gig on the Clone

[43:27] Wars.

[43:29] >> Yes. It was uh she was meeting Anakin's

[43:32] mom, right? And he was like, "Actually,

[43:33] they've already met at this point."

[43:35] >> Yeah. So, what it is is his first day

[43:37] recording. They didn't know who he was.

[43:38] He wasn't Darth Maul yet. He was like

[43:39] soldier number two. He was doing a um a

[43:41] thing for the Mortise Gods. And there's

[43:43] a part in that episode where u you know

[43:45] Dave Fona is there. They're all there

[43:46] and he's sitting next to Ashley X

[43:48] Kasoka's in the episode. And then uh

[43:50] there's a line in it where Ahsoka tells

[43:52] a ghost of his mom like, "Oh, I'm in

[43:54] love. I'm married. I can't wait for you

[43:56] to meet her." And Sam Wilbur interrupts

[43:58] and goes, "Um, actually," and everyone

[44:01] looks like, "Who the hell is this guy?"

[44:02] And he goes, "Yeah, Padme and Shmei have

[44:04] already met." And they're like,

[44:07] >> and then Ashley Xeen told him, "I've

[44:09] never seen anybody outnner Dave Filon."

[44:11] So that's

[44:12] >> Let's see that in the episode, though.

[44:14] Let's see. Ghost Shmei be like, "Wait,

[44:16] her? She came to the [laughter] house

[44:18] when you were

[44:19] >> She came to the house once." Yeah. Are

[44:21] you

[44:21] >> You're marrying her?

[44:23] >> You're marrying that lady. She was You

[44:24] were 8 years old and she was a senator.

[44:27] That lady,

[44:27] >> you weren't like chatty predator.

[44:31] >> Yeah. [laughter]

[44:32] >> Oh no.

[44:34] >> Oh, that went a different way from how I

[44:36] thought we did have some super you've

[44:38] been groomed.

[44:40] >> Jesus Christ.

[44:40] >> Anakin, you get away. This is terrible.

[44:42] Wait, you're living

[44:43] >> and somehow not by the Jedi order.

[44:45] You've been groomed by someone else.

[44:47] [laughter]

[44:47] >> I just want to post credit scene where

[44:49] she's taking a politician.

[44:51] >> Let me get this straight. You stole a

[44:54] slave. [laughter]

[44:57] >> What is Niboo if not an island of

[44:59] >> And he's now an occult.

[45:01] >> Resign he will.

[45:02] >> And you're married to [laughter]

[45:04] >> You just do the Chappelle show bit.

[45:06] Yeah.

[45:07] >> Yeah.

[45:08] >> Disgrace Jod is design. Resign he must

[45:11] >> resign. Let's get

[45:13] >> I want to get to these super chats

[45:15] before we talk about Gan Gray. Arman,

[45:17] friend of the channel, he's here every

[45:18] day. Gave us two pounds. Said, "Hey

[45:19] guys, it's me again. I'm drunk today.

[45:21] What's happening?" In his defense or

[45:23] their defense, yeah, it is five hours

[45:25] ahead of the East Coast. So, good on you

[45:28] for

[45:28] >> It's noon for me and I still supported

[45:30] you when I thought it was noon wherever

[45:32] you are. So, just FYI.

[45:34] >> Whitney's like, "I bet you're in Hawaii

[45:36] at 6:00 a.m. and have a great time."

[45:38] >> Exactly. Have a great day.

[45:42] Freeman gave us two bucks.

[45:43] >> Whales.

[45:45] >> Jordan,

[45:47] what's it called again? Whale fall.

[45:48] Can't wait to see it.

[45:49] >> Whale fall. The whale is gonna fall.

[45:51] Okay.

[45:51] >> From where? Where is the whale? Where

[45:53] does it fall to?

[45:54] >> You have to see the film and find out.

[45:56] Jordan Freeman gave us two bucks and

[45:58] said, "What happens to the Crossover

[45:59] Universe podcast?" We're still hoping to

[46:01] do it. We just had to put it on pause

[46:02] for a little bit, but got to get Heather

[46:04] on the show ASAP. Monty Gave us two

[46:06] bucks and said, "Chat solve this. Have

[46:08] Luis from Ant-Man do the recap." I've

[46:09] heard that before. That'd be fun.

[46:12] >> That would be so fun.

[46:15] >> West in the meantime, check out

[46:17] Guardians of the Galaxy with [screaming]

[46:20] >> That's a damn good podcast, honey.

[46:23] >> Tommy B, MT, Whitney, you can't you

[46:26] can't come on the show unless you rhyme.

[46:28] I'm sorry. Just

[46:29] >> you can't beat me. There [laughter] you

[46:31] go.

[46:32] >> Ricky works. So,

[46:35] >> I'm there. You call me Mikey. Mikey. I

[46:37] can

[46:38] >> Mikey works.

[46:39] >> There we go.

[46:41] I'm done.

[46:41] >> Yeah, Colton, you're [ __ ] You're

[46:43] [ __ ] You're never

[46:44] >> No, gave us $5 and said, "Going into

[46:48] phase zero, since the first Avengers

[46:49] Assemble, what does it feel like? Why

[46:52] does it feel like Marvel's Nick Fury has

[46:53] more up his sleeve for this saga like

[46:55] the Young Avengers? I don't know if Nick

[46:56] Fury is gonna I don't know. I'd love to

[46:59] see Nick Fury come in. I've always

[47:01] thought like I thought originally

[47:03] Endgame would have like Nick Fury

[47:04] walking through the portal and being

[47:06] like, I told you, Mr. Stark,

[47:07] >> you're part of a bigger universe. And

[47:09] then they did it a different way, but

[47:10] they might call back to that.

[47:12] >> I I kind of wish they'd had Nick Fury in

[47:14] the portal scene, the big battle at the

[47:17] end of Endgame, like coming out of there

[47:19] with a like two giant guns and just like

[47:23] >> Yeah.

[47:23] >> I mean, they had Sherry there with

[47:25] little blasters, so I can't make Fury

[47:27] >> Howard the duck was there.

[47:28] >> Yeah.

[47:30] >> Fury.

[47:31] >> Yeah. Yeah. And armor that Tony made.

[47:33] >> And I mean, she is a she's a hero in her

[47:35] own respect. And then like while Tony's

[47:37] dying, Nick Fury's in the background

[47:39] scraping up DNA for Secret Invasion.

[47:41] Like Yeah.

[47:42] >> Yeah. Exactly.

[47:43] >> Makes that whole thing way grosser. That

[47:45] Secret Invasion plot line that they

[47:47] added to that.

[47:48] >> So weird. Oh my god. That's who Dr. Doom

[47:52] is.

[47:52] >> Everybody loves Samuel L. But if they

[47:55] reset, you think they want maybe like a

[47:57] a younger, scrappier Nick Fury that is

[48:00] like going on missions with them to like

[48:04] >> who doesn't have it in their contract

[48:05] that he doesn't have to run like Samuel

[48:07] Jackson does.

[48:08] >> Yeah. Can't believe

[48:09] >> God that would be in my Tom Cruz. He has

[48:11] to run.

[48:12] >> I kind of feel like

[48:14] >> he does have to do this guy. I want

[48:18] >> He does. Yeah. And also get his ankle

[48:19] broken. I I want everybody recast.

[48:21] That's my answer to that. I want

[48:22] everybody recast.

[48:24] >> Everybody.

[48:25] >> Everybody.

[48:26] >> No, no, no, no, no, no. Eventually

[48:27] recast. Right. When they're when an

[48:29] actor's ready to step away from the

[48:30] role, someone else can play. Actors are

[48:33] very good at what they do.

[48:34] >> Hear that?

[48:36] >> Do you want them to do that? Do you want

[48:38] them to kind of do it like like with

[48:41] James Bond like where they just keep the

[48:44] continuity going and they recast except

[48:47] within the MCU it might be well here or

[48:50] there new actor coming in because you

[48:52] wouldn't do it all at once. There'd be

[48:54] some

[48:56] >> hire everyone in the MCU at once and

[49:00] gas.

[49:00] >> No, I think that I think too many people

[49:03] would be very upset if like do that. But

[49:05] even with James Bond, it's not even like

[49:07] it's one continuity because like Pierce

[49:09] Broman's M was Judy Dench, but then at

[49:12] the end of Daniel Craig's, it goes from

[49:14] Judy Dench to being the classic M from

[49:16] the original. So like it always is like

[49:18] >> was the same from Connory through I

[49:21] think Broden's like first movie. Wasn't

[49:23] Q the

[49:23] >> Yeah. And then Yeah. And then it became

[49:25] John Cle, right?

[49:26] >> I want them to recast Steve Rogers.

[49:29] >> I think

[49:30] >> eventually. Well, eventually, of course,

[49:32] but I think that Chris Evans still has a

[49:34] lot of years in him to do some really

[49:36] cool Captain America stuff. Like, I

[49:38] don't want to go right back to,

[49:40] >> you know, origins of Steve Rogers.

[49:43] >> Yeah. I don't need another go do

[49:45] something else. I kind of want to see,

[49:46] you know what I'm disappointed in,

[49:47] though? We're talking about the thing

[49:48] earlier what we'd like to see in the new

[49:49] universe. I just want to see Captain

[49:50] America kill Nazis. I was always so

[49:52] disappointed in First Avenger, that his

[49:54] entire World War II experience was a

[49:56] montage where he didn't kill a single

[49:58] Nazi. That's what I wanted from that

[50:00] film because that's the comics.

[50:02] >> They need to do a movie with Captain

[50:04] America, King Taka, and Wolverine

[50:07] fighting Nazis in World War II. That and

[50:11] >> Jones does a cameo because it's owned by

[50:14] Disney by the And

[50:19] >> Yes.

[50:19] >> And then Indiana Jones turns into the

[50:21] Red Hulk right in the middle of

[50:23] >> because he's a variant, right? Yeah. H.

[50:26] >> No, I mean that Marvel 1942 video game

[50:29] is has been in development for a really

[50:31] long time. Looks really good. Who knows

[50:33] if it'll ever come out, but it's

[50:35] supposed to be Captain America and King

[50:37] Taka or even I think his dad. It's like

[50:40] >> Tchala's grandfather uh in World War II.

[50:44] And I like

[50:45] >> I'm so down for that. I I think we

[50:47] should get some period pieces. I want

[50:49] more period pieces out of the MCU. If

[50:51] there's all this like eons, millennia of

[50:54] cosmic history and how it impacted the

[50:56] earth and everything else, like give us

[50:57] an older story.

[50:59] >> Couldn't agree more.

[51:00] >> You know how much money a Chris Evans,

[51:02] Hugh Jackman, Captain America, and

[51:04] Wolverine movie would make?

[51:05] >> God, that would make so much [ __ ]

[51:06] money it would be disgusting.

[51:08] >> And have the balls to make it rated R.

[51:11] Yeah. World War II rated R bloody war

[51:14] movie. Not for nothing, they they could

[51:18] also do a thing in that if the howling

[51:19] commandos are all still active in it

[51:21] because in when they first introduced

[51:23] the Winter Soldier in the comics, Steve

[51:26] does a little bit of retcon history.

[51:27] He's talking, I think, to Sharon Carter.

[51:28] And he's telling her like, look, one of

[51:30] the reasons Bucky was with us, he wasn't

[51:32] just like a teen sidekick. He was the

[51:34] killer. Like, he was trained to go into

[51:37] places and slip in under darkness and

[51:39] murder people. It's just we didn't see

[51:41] that in the happy golucky Captain

[51:42] America comics, you know, where he was a

[51:44] teen sidekick. So they can actually get

[51:45] into that and maybe lay some groundwork

[51:48] for why he made such a good Winter

[51:50] Soldier because the movie still

[51:51] addresses.

[51:52] >> Yeah. And I still really hope even

[51:54] though I'm like I want them to keep

[51:56] Chris Evans as Steve Rogers. I don't

[51:57] want that to hold them back from like

[51:59] doing a Kieran Kulkin Tony Stark or who

[52:01] like I like your idea of just you don't

[52:04] have to recast everybody but you don't

[52:05] have to keep everybody either. And I was

[52:07] actually just working on a video before

[52:09] we got on here talking about how Star

[52:11] Wars needs to do the same thing. They

[52:13] don't have to reset everything and

[52:14] recast everybody, but it is time to

[52:16] recast Han, Luke, and Leia. And I think

[52:18] you can do the same thing in Marvel.

[52:20] >> Yeah,

[52:20] >> couldn't agree more. Uh, the Guild of

[52:22] Calam the Guild of Calamitus intent,

[52:24] which is one of my all-time favorite

[52:25] YouTubers on here gave us 10 bucks

[52:28] >> and said, "The guild just wanted to say

[52:29] hi TO WHITNEY."

[52:31] >> HI. OH MY GOSH, IT'S SO GOOD TO see you.

[52:33] Hi. Hello. Hello. Thank you for joining

[52:36] in.

[52:37] >> And Phila from Down Under gave us eight

[52:39] Australian dollars and said, "Just

[52:40] supporting the channel. Love the show.

[52:41] Love you back." Whitney, do you cover

[52:42] the Venture Brothers? Have I asked you

[52:44] this before on your

[52:44] >> No, I actually don't. I don't cover the

[52:46] Venture Brothers on Whitney Vision, but

[52:48] I am in the middle of covering Rick and

[52:50] Morty. So, everybody go watch those.

[52:53] >> Links for that will be down below.

[52:54] They're not right now because until the

[52:56] last minute, we hadn't locked in the

[52:57] guests, so like it still has a bunch of

[52:58] different people listed below, but we'll

[53:00] change that.

[53:01] >> And then Mr. Sinister 585 gave us $5 and

[53:04] said, "What should they tweak or add in

[53:07] Endgame? What's crucial for a strong

[53:08] connection to Doomsday?" Now, we've

[53:10] talked about this before. I'm curious,

[53:11] Whitney, Mike, I want to hear from you

[53:12] guys. The Russo brothers did say they're

[53:14] kind of going back and doing a little

[53:15] George Lucasing to Endgame, adding in

[53:18] some things that connect to the saga.

[53:20] Um, the the thing that we like to bring

[53:22] up is like the hammering sound as Dr.

[53:23] Doom making his armor at the end of the

[53:25] credits, but do you guys have any ideas

[53:27] what could they add in to I don't know

[53:29] if it's in the background if Dr. Doom is

[53:30] like on an abacus in the background in

[53:32] Asgard in those time travel scenes or

[53:35] like

[53:35] >> Dr. Doom cantina scene has to be.

[53:39] >> No other answer.

[53:41] Wait, Dr. Doom cantina scene.

[53:43] >> Yeah, he's got to be the the CGI the CGI

[53:46] guy doing the karaoke in the cantina

[53:49] scene. That's what I want to see. If

[53:50] they're if they're doing a George Lucas

[53:52] reccon, give me the whole thing. Give me

[53:55] the Give me the whole Fresh Lucas, baby.

[53:57] I want that.

[53:58] >> I think the only thing I would like them

[54:00] doing in that way, like going back and

[54:02] adding something digitally, is like the

[54:04] watcher in the background of scenes or

[54:05] something.

[54:06] >> That would be cool as [ __ ]

[54:08] being added in would be cool.

[54:10] >> It doesn't interfere in any way. It's

[54:12] not as if the characters could have

[54:13] canonically like seen him or spotted him

[54:15] or anything like that. It would I think

[54:17] that would be neat like window dressing.

[54:19] you know, a good place to put him. Um,

[54:22] >> it might be too distracting from a

[54:24] really cool moment, but when Steve faces

[54:25] Thanos's army and he's by himself,

[54:28] >> if you could put in a vague hint, you

[54:29] don't want to detract from it because

[54:31] the only other moment I can think of is

[54:33] like when Doctor Strange holds up his

[54:34] hand,

[54:35] >> but even then, it's not a big sky shot

[54:37] >> or when Tony dies because there's that

[54:39] big sky behind Pepper kind of. You can

[54:42] that'd be cool.

[54:43] >> But then again, hold on. You know what

[54:45] the most crucial moment in that movie is

[54:47] though as far as the multiverse? It's

[54:50] probably when Loki steals the tesser

[54:53] act, right? Because that's the part that

[54:54] he who remains wrote that caused the

[54:56] whole multiverse [ __ ] to happen to

[54:58] begin.

[54:58] >> That was the only thing that happened

[55:00] that wasn't supposed to happen. Well,

[55:01] apart from

[55:04] >> Yeah, watch. I think what they're I

[55:06] think what they're including in Doomsday

[55:07] is going to be something to do with what

[55:10] happens with Steve between the time

[55:12] platform and getting on the

[55:13] >> I think so.

[55:14] >> Well, because that's got to be the most

[55:15] important thing there. We know Chris

[55:17] Evans is coming back. It's going to be

[55:20] the version of him in the past that's

[55:22] coming in through Doomsday. So, I think

[55:25] they're going to show they're they're

[55:27] probably gonna add in a scene after he

[55:29] gets on the time platform or like maybe

[55:32] even because the movie ends the final

[55:34] shot of Endgame is him dancing with

[55:35] Peggy. So, you could just have the movie

[55:37] keep going after that and do like a like

[55:40] show their life together and all that

[55:42] >> like Back to the Future 2.

[55:44] >> Yeah. I [laughter]

[55:46] >> right after the first movie.

[55:47] >> I see a lot of people who just like to

[55:49] get pissy about things say, "Oh, this

[55:51] movie's

[55:52] pun intended doomed." because they're

[55:54] having to re-release the other movie and

[55:57] put in stuff to make this one makes No,

[55:59] they don't have to. They're doing it for

[56:03] it's they're doing it one to make more

[56:05] money off the movie. Maybe get it over

[56:08] that three billion line. There's nothing

[56:10] that they're putting into this in-game

[56:12] re-release, the Doom edition, Doomsday

[56:14] Edition, that's going to be like

[56:16] required viewing.

[56:17] >> Yeah.

[56:18] >> It's just to make money. Yeah,

[56:20] >> they got to dry all this Infinity Vision

[56:22] equipment that they've been sending out.

[56:24] They got to make sure that all the

[56:25] Infinity Vision stuff works,

[56:27] >> which is definitely a real thing.

[56:29] >> Free marketing for Doomsday. It's just

[56:31] part of their marketing for Doomsday. I

[56:32] think I don't think it's, oh, we got to

[56:35] holy [ __ ] we got to get re-release

[56:36] Endgame with this new scene or

[56:38] everybody's going to be lost.

[56:39] >> It could also just be as easy as showing

[56:41] Loki on the throne during a mid-redit

[56:43] scene. Like, it could because the movie

[56:44] has no mid or postredit. So, it could

[56:46] just be that they're doing that, putting

[56:48] the Watcher in the final battle. And,

[56:50] you know, maybe

[56:52] >> All right, we got a mid-redit scene,

[56:54] Loki on the throne. We got a postredit

[56:55] scene. It's the scene from Iron Man one

[56:58] of Tony Stark in the cave, but

[57:02] >> instead of the guy from the conference

[57:04] in Burn, it is Wong or somebody else

[57:08] that is teaching him the mystical arts

[57:10] and then he

[57:11] >> or Loki at funeral

[57:14] >> or Kristoff. Yeah, Loki at Tony's

[57:16] funeral. That'd be kind of weird. All

[57:18] right, guys. I got one more super chat,

[57:20] then we got to wrap it up. We got uh

[57:22] Alex Con gave us, "If only one R-rated

[57:25] movie is made, which character,

[57:28] >> and I'm going to codify that and say not

[57:30] somebody we've already seen." So, Dead

[57:31] Wolverine's already had his and Deadpool

[57:33] have had theirs. So, somebody new only

[57:35] one person gets it.

[57:37] >> Blade. Fantastic.

[57:40] >> I want my World War II

[57:42] Captain America movie. your ultra bloody

[57:45] Yeah. murder Nazis.

[57:46] >> And I want Captain America to say the f

[57:49] word.

[57:51] >> If it's The Punisher, uh, if he's in a

[57:54] movie, I he has to be rated R. Yeah,

[57:57] there's no way I think One Last Kill

[57:59] proves that. Um,

[58:01] >> that's what I'm like saying about like

[58:03] going to see the new Spider-Man movie is

[58:05] I'm like, I watched One Last Kill and

[58:07] I'm like, how is that guy not going to

[58:09] just be like, "Fuck this, [ __ ] that,

[58:11] [ __ ] that." you know, like the whole

[58:12] Spider-Man, like I just saw him do in

[58:13] this other movie. I'm very excited. I'm

[58:15] so excited for Spider-Man.

[58:17] >> Yeah, me too. And I definitely And

[58:18] speaking of Spider-Man, I don't think

[58:19] we're going to get to that before we

[58:20] have to sign off for today. I will say

[58:22] the trailer leak I've heard includes

[58:24] pink energy being thrown around, which

[58:26] is what Gan uses in the comics and an

[58:28] X-Men animated series. And it definitely

[58:30] seems like they're confirming Sadi Sync.

[58:32] Do you guys think there's any chance she

[58:34] does not play Gan Gray in this movie?

[58:36] >> Nah,

[58:37] >> I hope she doesn't.

[58:39] I don't think she's

[58:41] >> I don't Yeah, I hope she's shot there,

[58:42] too. I don't think she's the bad guy. I

[58:44] think that's all bait and switch. I

[58:46] think I think she's being used.

[58:48] >> Yeah, I think her powers are being used

[58:50] maybe by Miles Warren Jackal. Yeah,

[58:53] >> I agree. I would be shocked if she was

[58:55] actually a villain. I think she's

[58:56] definitely being used, but it then it

[58:58] throws in this whole thing where she's

[58:59] perceived as the villain and then the

[59:02] leads to the public fearing and hating

[59:04] mutants, which again goes back to phase

[59:05] zero and the idea that at the next saga

[59:08] we're going to be talking about the

[59:09] mutants and things like that. So, that

[59:10] brings everything full circle. I'm going

[59:12] to have to let you guys go there.

[59:13] Whitney, find her on Whitney Vision. Um,

[59:42] are only adding Doom watching at the

[59:44] end. Yeah, he might be just watching

[59:45] through a window and setting that up.
