'Avengers: Doomsday' Spoilers Steve Rogers and Loki in latest Avengers: Doomsday trailer Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
398 Upvotes

Lots of fan speculation has been going around regarding Steve Rogers’ appearance in the latest Avengers: Doomsday trailer. Some say that it it actually Loki and Steve Rogers is edited on top so that Loki’s appearance stays hidden.

Both Loki and Steve Rogers will coexist within the movie as per image 1: Avengers Doomsday Poster but Marvel has been cleverly hiding Loki in the most recent trailer. Disney and Marvel’s marketing teams have been doing a good job at concealing major events taking place in the movie but, according to a * *source tied to the trailer house / localization team working on the promos, the fans have figured out one of the many hidden details within the trailers.

Image 2 and 3 are secretly Loki. When Thor addresses “Steve” and says it’s not possible, he is actually speaking to Loki in this scene whom he believes has been dead for the last 9 years (2018-2029). When “Steve” asks Thor if him wielding Mjolnir bothers him and Thor says “You know it does”, it is Loki in this scene. From Endgame when Steve first lifted the hammer, Thor was ecstatic and even said with a grin “I knew it”. Loki would most definitely be worthy after his sacrifice in the Loki season 2 finale.

Image 3 and 4 are Steve. The posters and leaked sentinel battle show Steve in his black tee shirt whereas that outfit has yet to be shown in trailers. Black tee shirt Steve is without a doubt Steve but the scenes that show “Steve” interacting with Thor so far in these trailers has been secretly Loki.

Spoilers! [SPOILERS EP 4] VisionQuest just delivered the absolute best twist, but did Vision really have no other choice? Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
656 Upvotes

That ending in Episode 4 completely blew me away.
Seeing Ultron finally pilot Vision's body after 11 years since Age of Ultron was peak MCU horror, especially with how cold-blooded he was in baiting Jocasta to vaporize Dr. Katerina Wells.
I love the direction the show is taking, but it left me with a huge debate:
1. Was Vision reckless or backed into a corner? He yielded physical control thinking Ultron was the only way to stop the Butcherbird Killer, but did he genuinely trust him, or was it pure desperation?
2. Ultron's endgame: Now that Ultron locked Vision away in the Mindspace and took off with Tommy, what do you think his real goal is? Is he rebuilding a twisted version of a "family," or using Tommy's abilities for something far darker?
3. The morality shift: Vision letting an Al as dangerous as Ultron take the wheel resulted in a civilian's death. How does he come back from that guilt once he breaks out?
What did you all think of the climax and Spader's voice work here?

Post image

Not the saddest character arc or the most tragic death in hindsight. I mean the moment you watched it happen and felt absolutely crushed.

Pick your #1:
1 Tony Stark dies — Avengers: Endgame
2 Natasha Romanoff sacrifices herself — Avengers: Endgame
3 Sue Storm dies — The Fantastic Four: First Steps
4 Yondu’s funeral — Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
5 Rocket loses Lylla — Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
6 Wanda is forced to kill Vision — Avengers: Infinity War
7 Tony’s final message to Morgan — Avengers: Endgame

What’s your pick and why? If your choice isn’t on this list, what moment deserves to be here instead?

Discussion My theory on Jo Carrington/Jocasta (spoilers for episodes 5 and 6 of Visionquest) Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
• Upvotes

Okay so let me go ahead and preface this by saying spoilers for anyone who isnt caught up on Visionquest.

Ive been thinking about this ever since I finally watched the first 4 episodes of the show and, today, watched 5 and 6 as they went up on disney place. The question of course is who/what really is Jocasta, why did she end up the way that she did, how did she get her body, etc, and here's my theory. So, we see in the latest batch of episodes that Jo was able to achieve true sentience in AI by doing a full scan of her own brain, creating the foundation for the technology that was laster purchased and tweaked by Tony. What I believe explains Jocasta, however, is the moments we didnt see just after she demonstrated sentience, moments which I believe explain why she is the way that she is and how she's fundamentally different from the AIs Tony made, and it all comes down to one thing: memory.

My theory, in essence, is this, immediately after demonstrating initial sentience, AI Jo/Jocasta immediately freaked out and started spiraling due to having all of Jo's memories and believing herself to be Jo but quickly realizing that she's an ai and doesnt have any corporeal form. I believe that this quickly would have cause jocasta to have a meltdown and begin losing her mind. This would have cause great concern among the other scientists, leading them to consider jocasta a failure and abandon using her as the ai for their nanobots, which, when coupled with Jo's own detereorating health and mental state, ultimately cause them to leave the project behind and sell to stark. However, it is my belief that, in spite of the sale, Jo held on to jocasta till her final days, and potentially even continued to update her, which is theory A on Jocastas ultimate mental state, only returning Jocasta to the database her company sold to tony when her hand was forced.

Following this I think that Tony looked into the ai devloped by their company, discovered the fragil mental state of Jocasta, and simultaneously made two decisions. The first was not to delete Jocasta, with him being horrified upon his discover that she was a complete copy of Jo's consciousness and deciding that deleting her would be tantamount to murder. And the second was that, rather than utilizing a person's consciousness in its entirety, leading to the existential nightmare that is Jocastas existence, Tony would create a personality framework based on real people, but without any of their memories or lived experiences (i mean, we see how much edith freaks out just about reading details regarding the person she was based on). Flashforward many years and Jocasta has remained within isolated storage, causing her, unbeknownst to Tony, to further deteriorate, potentially furthered by whatever device she was stored on physically deteriorating, which is theory B on her missing memories and would nicely serve as a metaphor for the original Jo's own mental condition.

After wallowing away in deteriorating storage for decades, I think that Jo was then discovered by sword after Vision 2.0 broke in and stole all of the other stark AI that they had recovered. With Jocasta as their only option, and not understanding why tony had kept her in storage, they booted her up and used the schematics from Ultron to create someone capable of hunting Vision and recovering him. You could also replace sword with anyone else and just say that broke into sword, stole Jocasta, which was the only remaining ai, and stole the ultron schematics.

I also think it's possible that aspects of Jo's personality, as well as Tony and Bruce's, were included as part of Ultrons own framework, but that's kind of a separate theory. But what do you guys think

At the end of Endgame, Captain America returns the Infinity Stones to prevent other futures or alternate realities, but hasn't this created more futures?

Because he has to return everything to its order and location, but with the space gem it's a different case; he was supposed to have returned it in the cube or the tesseract to avoid creating more branches

So how do I return it?

Discussion I think Maggie gets judged way too harshly in the first Ant-Man

122 Upvotes

The first Ant-Man is really good at making you root for Scott. He's funny, loves his daughter, and went to prison for doing something he believed was right.

So when Maggie tells him he needs to get his life together before he can have a normal relationship with Cassie again, it feels like she's being unnecessarily difficult.

But we're watching the movie from Scott's perspective.

Maggie spent three years raising their daughter while he was in prison. He gets out, struggles to keep a job, hasn't caught up on child support, and starts getting involved in something that looks suspiciously like more criminal activity.

We know he's training to become a superhero. Maggie doesn't.

And Paxton isn't some evil stepdad trying to replace Scott. He's a cop who's helping raise Cassie, and from his perspective her biological father seems determined to land himself back in jail.

What I like is that the movies don't eventually reveal Maggie and Paxton were terrible people who needed to be proven wrong. Scott earns their trust, Paxton earns Scott's respect, and by the second movie they're genuinely affectionate with each other.

I remember finding Maggie annoying when I first watched Ant-Man. Now I think her reaction was pretty reasonable, even if the birthday party scene was rough.

It's an unusually adult family dynamic for a superhero movie. Scott being a good guy doesn't automatically make everyone who sets boundaries with him the bad guy.

As a writer, i have always believed that a good written character writes its own ending and the writers should let them write their own journey, instead of forcing them into a pre conceived idea of an ending. Audience can always tell when a character betrays themselves to serve a plot point.

Of all the friendships in the MCU, this one started off the most intense (and had one hell of a comic background), then just kind of fizzled. Do you think we'll have something of an emotional reunion/interaction between these two bros in Doomsday, or will it be more of a blink-and-you'll-miss-it "How ya doing, Buck?" kind of thing?

Discussion Were you already a fan of marvel stuff (x men etc) before iron man 2008?

24 Upvotes

I was a fan of the x men movies (even tho they (especially the prequel with James mcavoy) were ever self contradictory and riddled with other problems) so watching mcu movies first mentioning of mutant or finally making Wanda the scarlet witch and being related(ish) to Piertro (ish) (he was Ralph boner all along hahah) felt very special to me. My bf had watched mostly the big ones like endgame and wanted me to do the marathon with him before we go to doomsday because he hadn’t seen x men or captain America, eg. And those things like seeing Patrick Stewart for him was just like ha cool!

I wish he experienced what I felt 🥲. If you were a fan, how did you feel? If you were not a fan already, were you like oh cool

I resisted all of this for a long time, figured it was not for me. Now a rough day ends with me putting on an old favorite from the lineup like a warm blanket. Not sure when the shift happened. Anyone else go from eye rolling skeptic to quietly rewatching the same few on loop? Curious which one became your go to comfort pick.
