The Marvels: News and General Discussion thread

Makes sense to put The Marvels in China's propaganda month. It is going to be interesting to see how the propaganda month affects release dates.
 
Hmm I just realized both Ant-Man movies were Summer movies and Captain Marvel wasn't. But The Marvels feel more like a summer movie and Quantumania is more fitting for a Q1 release.
 
Could it be, that we will see Maria (Lashana Lynch) as a Captain Marvel variant like in Doctor Strange 2? That would be awesome.
 
so if the script does kamala any justice, she will steal the movie and become the #1 female character in the mcu.
 
This movie hasn’t interested me much…until yesterday.
if they really go into the direction of this movie diving deeper into Mutants, than my excitement just had risen 90%

I remember reading rumors about Rogue two years ago

I am quite willing to bet this isn't the movie that is going to go into mutants.

Probably not. However, considering how the bangle essentially works the same way as the Negabands in the comics, with Carol and Kamala are taking on the Mar-Vell and Rick Jones roles respectively, and its strong ties to the Negative Zone, I could very much see this set up and lead into the Fantastic Four in some way. I mean, with a variant of Reed Richards having appeared in Doctor Strange 2, Kang being in the next Ant-Man, and
getting Doctor Doom in Wakanda Forever
, it’s pretty much all but guaranteed.

The image of where the MCU is going next is starting to come more into view, and I think by next year we’ll have a much better idea of the trajectory and goal.
 
I think people have really over estimated how much set up IW had. And I would not call a lot of table setting happening in other movies.
 
I saw a clip of Ms Marvel's post credit scene yesterday and Carol looks great. Love the new hairstyle and costume, I hope she keeps it in The Marvels. Can't wait to see the movie, it's a shame they pushed it back :csad:
 
So what exactly will Monica's superhero name be in The Marvels? I assume something with "Marvel" in it, based on the movie title. But she can't be Captain Marvel while Carol is still Captain Marvel, right? So what will she be called?
 
With Captain Marvel, Ms.Marvel reportedly Blue Marvel she really is the one left without a Marvel-name.
I bet she‘ll get a Marvel-name

She's family, I don't think she really needs the name.
 
it’s for marketing - doesn’t matter if her character belongs to family or not
 
What do you mean by family? Do you mean because Carol was friends with her mom?

I mean, Auntie Carol was close enough to open up presents on christmas morning. How you want to interpret it is up to you, but close enough to be family is clear.
 
Possible full plot leak

Without getting into details, I think I am going to pass. Not a fan of the Guardians style humor in every property now.

 
Yooooo this sounds like a blast to me! Loving all the DeConnick influence. :up: Yet another weak MCU villain would be my only complaint from what I just read, tbh. I hope it's real.

And glad Valkyrie and Carol are BFFs, lol.

Seems l like it's a movie that will be live or die by the chemistry of its 3 leads, and the OP said that was easily their favorite part, so I'm optimistic.

If it’s real, it’s not for me

It reads like it could be another Love and Thunder with lame jokes that go nowhere. The singing planet idea just doesn’t work for me.

And Monica comforting Carol on it being ok to destroy a group of innocent people is reminiscent her telling Wanda “they’ll never know what you sacrificed” after kidnapping a town

To each their own!
The singing planet was one of my favorite issues of KSD's run in the comics, so I'm 100% here for that, lol.

Also, I seriously doubt the resolution with Hala will play out that way - the Kree are NOT innocent people, for one. They were literally committing intergalactic genocide and hunting another race across the universe. Carol needs to accept that she can't be embraced as a savior by everyone; not when you're meddling in intergalactic geopolitics. I like her having to come to terms with the consequences of intervening. Doesn't mean it wasn't the right thing to do. That's actually very true to her comics as well.
Like I said, sounds awesome to me, and I absolutely hope it's real.
 
Maybe she'll finally sing some 90s songs like "C'est La Vie" by B*witched or Dani Minogue's "This is it".
