Five things Marvel can do to save the MCU

[@litcomicsproductions5359]

Marvel's problem for most movies of the past 4 years is that they have a character they want to sell you, but no script to do it with.

[@thecluckster3908]

That and oversaturation, even if they released 10 bangers in a row I would not watch them because I’m not going to the theatre 10 times for one franchise.

[@maxpokebruh27]

​@@thecluckster3908agreed 100%

[@Comicbroe405]

I've seen your comment in soooo many videos like these dude. Not that you're wrong or anything but chill lol.

[@marvelxdcx97]

[@benwasserman8223]

They had scripts. But they were essentially working from square one - er Phase One - again and most people forgot how long it took certain OG Avengers to catch on with the public. Hulk needed a recasting to feel interesting. Captain America had a solid first outing but took until Winter Soldier for people to declare him their favorite. And Thor? Yeah Hemsworth was solid enough in his 2011 outing. But it was Ragnarok that actually made people say they cared about Thor's arc - two whole phases later. The bigger issue is there's so much Marvel at once and that burns people out. We got the massive interconnected film/TV landscape everyone demanded from the Netflix era and it turns out... that isn't necessarily the best thing for casual fans.

[@k.jacquottez-y.561]

he just wrote this video to pitch his idea for Dr. Strange and the Muppet-verse of madness and I love that

[@calebmarmon1310]

And the problem is that pitch was too short. I need more!

[@bodhimind108]

I'm all about it. The Muppetverse of Madness just sounds too cool.

[@Hoomon13]

We need at least a special presentation, which I feel is doable.

[@ColinfromCanada]

[@garyg7145]

I'd restart my Disney subscription to watch a Muppet Avengers movie. That idea is awesome.

[@tofugofa]

I've been thinking for a while about how the post credits scenes have changed. They used to tease either the very next film or the next Avengers film, but now it's just a setup for a film that isn't even in preproduction and may never happen. Doesn't exactly build hype like they used to.

[@casualfanatic4217]

It still baffles me that Phase 4 didn’t end with a Young Avengers movie. Seeing as how half the movies and shows were introducing the members and they could’ve rode on that Endgame hype while it was still strong.

[@gr3s473]

Most people wouldnt like That. They feel like they are the substitutes of the Other characters.

@@LuffyBlack yeah that's the thing about most mcu fans, they are idiots. they haven't read a comic in their whole lives, so when any project is announced (wonder man, moon knights, thunderbolts) they will say: noBodY aSkeD fOr ThiS

[@jalapenoofjustice4682]

honestly, Armor Wars can be marketed as an Iron Man movie. Rhodey was Iron Man in the comic before he even got the name War Machine, and the name is vacant so why not call him he new Iron Man

[@Fardfardshidshid]

I fundamentally disagree with the notion that phase 4 was the phase of directorial control. In fact, most of the directors of movies in this phase have said their lack of control was the biggest problem they encountered with their films.

[@dexterthielhelm4342]

For all these amazing characters and huge stakes, not many of them end up crossing over or even get mentioned in other projects. Shang chi should have been connected into something, and the dead celestial should’ve been mentioned WAY sooner than cap 4.

[@Azaul]

The Shang-Chi had what felt like the most purposeful post-credit of the whole phase, and it's had zero follow-up.

[@CMCAdvanced]

only the concepts of these characters are amazing, the movie has no amazing characters. not anymore. That's the problem

[@Vor567tez]

[@GenerallDRK]

My #1 biggest gripe with the MCU is the MASSIVE amount of miss opportunities. Cough teasing doom, cough F4 showing up at the end of BP1, cough the eternals talking about the origin of everything and mention the x-gene. Etc etc.

[@kevinw712]

in a way, I kinda don't think the MCU can really be saved, at least not w/o making some tremendous, from-the-ground-up changes. like I've been thinking about this for a couple years now, something doesn't get EASIER to manage the BIGGER it gets. It pretty much is the exact opposite. It's like this was destined to happen. And obviously continuing with their current plan, it's only going to get even bigger. I don't think this would be realistic to happen, but included in the plan to have a major shift in how they operate is letting the MCU simply go entirely quiet for at least a couple years. Give it all a break. Let people have a chance to truly miss you.

[@lordofninjas1]

At least for the Fantastic Four showing up in Black Panther 1 thing, that wouldn't have been legally possible to do, as Disney did not own Fox at that time (filmed in like 2017, released in 2018, Disney got Fox in 2019) and I don't think Fox would have been willing to share at least those characters or the X-Men. I assume you probably meant the Fantastic Four showing up in Wakanda Forever, which would have been possible.

[@lovecraftianleviathan8918]

Cough, having the hex from WandaVision be foreshadowing for something much bigger Wanda was gonna do in M.O.M., such as accidentally creating the mutants (or reveal that she’d already erased them from memory and existence several years ago and then that hex comes crashing down by movie’s end. Oh, and have Strange show up by the season finale and undo the Westview hex at the end of that show so she has 1) a logical reason to be the movie’s antagonist besides a creatively lazy “an evil book made her evil” 2) a logical reason to go searching for her kids again and 3) a logical reason to have beef with Strange. Cough.

[@Antwannnn]

This is why Secret Wars has to reboot imo

[@rjayn2847]

To add to this list of gripes - why no Apocalypse tease in Moon Knight? You have entire tombs filled with hieroglyphics and you couldn't put one depiction of the big guy in there so that much further down the line when he finally is introduced you can point at it and go 'foreshadowing'.

[@marvelxdcx97]

As much as i like the tv shows, i think Marvel works better with being event films. Also another thing that hurt them is not having Avengers films to end the phases. Phase 4 and Phase 5 should've had an Avengers film or New Avengers film in order to show the fans the new team they will be following throughout the Multiverse Saga.

[@yourfriendlyneighbourhoodc8475]

Here's something extremely important that needs to be stated: The overwhelming majority of Marvel shows/movies lately has been seriously low quality with writing that has damaged worldbuilding, characters and more importantly to Disney, box office numbers(not as much as it should have but they've at least noticed the decline). Despite their countless horrible decisions I that at the very least Disney knows that unless they're 100% sure they can make something amazing that will draw people in, they're dead, there's no recovering if they use the hail Mary strategy of slapping the name "Avengers" on something with writing and characters as bad as they currently got

[@fettuccinealfredo6499]

I’m shocked Disney isn’t using the Muppets to hype more stuff. They should hire Nando to write the script for Dr Strange and the Muppetverse of Madness

[@tylerkovalesky5739]

Agreed 100%. There's a sesame street spoof of the first avengers movie which still holds up so well. One of my favorite moments is when Cookie Monster reveals his secret, that he's always hungry lol.

[@MrRobinson758]

Too arrogant. Too much pride. It would make sense to get a real fan like him in the writers room even if he is only there for ideas. He’s got a channel full of great, logical, coherent ideas. The track record is there. He’s a great story teller. They’d be worried about the “stigma” that would come along with hiring a “KZbinr”.

[@EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho]

Here's how I'd do it- Doctor Strange (Gonzo) and America Chavez (Rosita) travel across the multiverse to evade a rampaging Scarlet Witch (Miss Piggy), who is in search of a universe where she and Vision (Kermit) are married. At some point, they end up in a universe where the Illuminati (Doctor Honeydew as Professor X, Beaker as Black Bolt, Walter as Mr. Fantastic, Spamela Hamderson as Monica Rambeau, and Yolanda Rat as Captain Carter). Also, Fozzie is Wong

[@suicunesrider]

@@EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho that’s a great idea and I love your casting choices for each muppet. I think you could also do it in a way where the muppets stand in for half the characters in the special, but also include some of the new MCU actors as their own characters, it would make for endless comedic possibilities. For instance, you could have Iman Vellani in the special as Ms Marvel, but Miss Piggy as Captain Marvel. Miss Piggy would say she’s the captain marvel from another universe, constantly bringing up how she’s Kamala’s idol of course, all while Kamala is flabbergasted. Giving new audiences a simple and comedic way of learning about the new characters and their place in the mcu. Each muppet, as an mcu character, pairs up with normal mcu characters they are connected to in this same way. And they all have some adventure together, which of course won’t be treated as canon by the mcu. But it would bring audiences up to speed on the characters’ relationships to each other and everything.

[@veganguy74]

Right now the closest thing to that would be some of those Simpsons shorts about the Avengers.

[@Melanco001]

The connection part is what I am missing the most. It’s like there’s no plan anymore

[@tristanheron4144]

Make 'Heroes for Hire', a cheap-to-make ongoing TV show where you can throw in different heroes and villains each week. I think would really help the universe feel connected.

[@murk4552]

[@trollllllll1852]

Armor wars could’ve been a great tv show, they just missed the time frame for it. Having it set and released around the time of the falcon and the winter soldier would’ve been perfect. Countries around the world are in chaos and all scrambling to become the next superpower through iron man tech. It even fits with the time frame set from Ironman 2

[@OG_Agrivar]

I have been going to movies in general a lot less than I used to. I still see every MCU in theaters with exception of Black Widow, because that was the height of the pandemic at the time.

I think my main gripe for phase 4 was that it just felt so sporadic and had much more content with all the TV shows aswell.

It seems like they are doing that with Spotlight.

I STRONGLY doubt MCU gave creatives freedom on Phase 4. Put a tinfoil hat on me, but smells like a lie. Eternals and even L&T felt so off the mark precisely because they're overly safe, if you think about it.

[@jacobfairy1102]

Alternative list 1. Do something with the characters you tease. If you want to tease Hercules, use Hercules. These cameos are great, but we want more with them 2. Not everything has to be avengers, or avengers level. Separating them is fine. I know marvel has been burned from doing stuff like the defenders, but supplementing some big team up movies or shows with other teams could be very fun 3. More special presentations. They're different, and they can just as easy standalone as they can tie upcoming stuff in. 4. If something does well, follow it up. Like Moon Knight and Werewolf by night. Both are great and we have no idea when we are going to see these characters (that are now more popular because of said presentation) or stories progress 5. Take more chances. Do something different, break the mold, subvert expectations. I think it's safe to say marvel was doing it's best when they were doing NEW and groundbreaking things, and those paid off the most. There are other ways to do that. Do something different to spice it up. Again for an example, look at werewolf by night. It was fantastic and alot of that was due to how different it was compared to the rest of the MCU and how it fully embraced it.

[@swordmasterarie7752]

1:04 "Now that doesn't mean we need to Russo up Phase Six" LOL

[@neiel1]

Hot take: MCU should never have made Infinity War in the first ten years. It took decades of comics to lead up to that. They wasted Thanos as they expend all their villains too soon. They could’ve led up to Civil War instead or even waited on that event too. They keep rushing to do their biggest crossover events. Now they’re leading up to secret wars, trying to go bigger then endgame. The multiverse should be infinite but it feels claustrophobic and small. And how will they get bigger than and outdo that?

One property I’m surprised the MCU still haven’t utilized is Big Hero 6. The animated film made money and was well received, Disney released some series not long ago so it’s still on their mind and in the public eye. They can even age the team up and be a continuation of the animated film

[@Kogelvis]

"Captain Marvel 2: Galactic Boogaloo" was probably just an off-hand quip, but it's a low-key brilliant title. A silly title like that would've drummed up a lot of interest online and also set the tone for what the movie actually was: silly.

[@FHT1883]

I saw "Captain Marvel 3: A Christmas Carol" pitched somewhere a few years ago…

[@Jay-et9zp]

The issue Marvel has is they don’t have any focused main characters. The first 4 phases focused mostly on captain America and Iron man. Those were the main characters surrounded by side characters. They should find a small handful of characters to focus the entire MCU around and that’s it. They can still have side characters movies but they should be rare and spend most of their time focusing on the main characters. They could even branch out and have characters in the same universe but the themes of those movies can be completely different but they never cross with the other branches to give variety storytelling and they don’t have to worry about assigning us homework to know what’s happening in the MCU for those of us tired of “Superheroes”.

Imo Marvel needed to involve more comic writers to help treat their scripts. Maybe promote the comic or another show that the movie is based on so there is interest outside the MCU but still in the Marvel bubble.

I'm incredibly glad you have absolutely no say in decision making.

Ok, it's been 3 days since your Muppets idea has been put into the universe, and since they haven't announced it's coming, I can only assume everyone at Disney has been in a coma for the last 3 days and we need someone to go check in on them.

Is this video a meme? Why would we want marvel to ruin the muppets like they’re ruining everything else? Also Armor Wars is 2+ years away… why not cancel all of next years projects instead and just giving each project more time? These ideas don’t feel well thought out tbh…

Great videos, as always ! For me, they should not cancel Armor Wars, but it should be "Avengers : Armor Wars" and be also about the consequencies of the blip and maybe of other avengers mistakes, kinda their cursed legacy that Rhoodey, Falcon and the new one have to deal with. Not only carying a legacy, but facing their predecessors mistakes
