Iron Man can't be Doc Doom. No.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

There's actually a multiverse where tony stark becomes doom. Just an fyi

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

They've already stated Doom will be Victor, not "What if Tony Stark learned magic too." Though I suppose that could just be a lie/misinformation.

To me the bigger question is if they're going to drop Kang as the next Big Bad or if Doom is going to be one and done.

Uh oh the marketers and advertisers found lemmy.world

Heaven forbid someone actually enjoy something on Lemmy. Perhaps I should wax poetic how I hate everything and should thus be considered cool.

In before "I don't hate everything"

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I also enjoy things too but they often get wrecked by the influence of PR teams turning it all into giant commercials while using heavy censorship to control negative opinions of their product.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

Well rest assured if you have a critical complaint about the MCU you can say it here. You have to say more than "I don't like this" but if it's a thought out idea you don't say it. (And there is plenty to criticize)

MCU doesn’t really have a ‘proper’ Reed Richards, so the alternate universe Evil Reed from Secret Wars couldn’t work that way. The only brains of the MCU that could fill that role in that plot would be either Stark or Bannon, and the latter is a) still alive and b) already his own foil and his genius isn’t really played in the same way anyway. B-list alternative would be Hank Pym but he’s not been central to the MCU in anything like the same way as the other two.

Honestly I think it might work pretty well story-wise. Though actual reason is just… well, money. And the course correction aspect previously mentioned in these comments.

Isn't Pedro Pascal going to be Reed? He has some gravitas.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

Sure, and that will be great I’m sure, but an evil version of a character we’ve just been introduced to won’t hit the same.

Been a huge fan of the MCU since highschool, never missed a TV show or movie.

It has been over 2 year since I watched anything Marvel and honestly at this point I couldn't care less.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

...and yet, here you are commenting on a post in the Marvel Studios community.

I think you could care less.

I don’t like it. Seems weird. An article I read said that he would NOT be playing a multiverse version of Doom, but actually Victor Von Doom.

Now, based on that I have two thoughts:

  1. He was originally a Tony Stark multiverse version but became corrupted and no longer thinks of himself as Tony but he IS Victor Von Doom (like an identity shift).

  2. He’s Tony Stark’s face and will be revealed in a mask off moment. However, the twist is that it’s actually a Doombot and Tony’s face is used to mess with the Avengers. Maybe Doombots can have any face he chooses?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

I think there's a more simply theory:

  1. He never takes off the mask, and we never see his face.
[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago
  1. Life Model Decoy of Tony shows up and infiltrates the Avengers before the big turn, revealing that it is actually under the control of Doom.
[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

#2 would actually be a worthwhile twist.

Any of the others... Idk.

So they're doing a hard pivot away from the Kang stuff after the combination of the Majors scandal and underperformance of Quantumania?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

They already have, Loki Season 2 was tossed out the window in re-writes because of it.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago (2 children)

What's the majors scandal?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

Ah thanks had no clue. For anyone else wondering it's the actor that played Kang

Shut up and bring out the ravioli

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

Fair enough then.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Well, they did ask for this treatment with that username.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

Since I've started using this username I've had way less people being dicks to me when I say something stupid.
