If they are ever going to do that I’d bet on the GOTG Holiday Special. It’s either gonna have Luke Skywalker or Santa Claus or both.

Apparently, the post credit scene for WandaVision has been slightly changed and people think it's because they refilmed it for Multiverse of Madness.
Turns out it was to remove the reflection of the crew or lights or something, and they hosed up and left the mask in place for the whole thing, so people think they added some spectral bugaboo, but it was just a new mistake replacing an old one.

I would think they will try to use that whenever they can. Having all your work done in camera just makes your production pipeline sooooo much simpler, even aside from the ease of acting with the final environment visible to you.

To my knowledge the only place that Disney has a Volume setup is in California whereas Loki has been filmed in Georgia. This doesn't discount the use of the Volume for Loki, but I'm not sure it has been used at all in the current Marvel shows. We'll have to wait for some Behind the Scenes to know for sure.

Thing I think would be awesome, considering we get child Sylvie getting arrested is if we get at least a Rene Russo cameo. But I'm sure that's never gonna happen. I doubt we are ever getting another Luke Skywaler or Bo-Katan situation like in Mandalorian. :sigh:

btw, I finished watching Ragnarok. And, holy poo poo it hits the feels even worse the whole thing about Loki finally making peace with his brother and people, turning into some sort of hero (even if he destroyed his home world) and finally accepting that Thor is the rightful king of Asgard. Hopefully TVA Loki seems to be set into a similar path, minus snapped neck (let's consider that Marvel/Disney's already marketing him as an anti-hero).

I think that in some ways "our" Loki has gone a little bit beyond Original Loki. He's showing unprompted interest in and concern for others. There was no obvious practical/scheme reason for Loki to do the music bits on the train and a few practical/scheme reason not to. But... maybe part of it was to have a good time. And to show the people on the train (who are about to be dead) one last bit of good time as well.

If you're the literal personification of rebellion and told your role in the universe is to be, at best, a foil to the main characters, I think it's entirely reasonable to start doing things a bit differently just to gently caress with things. Giving a poo poo would definitely be out of character, haha, so naturally....

And yeah, he seemed to be actually and honestly concerned about Hunter B-15's well being after Sylvie enchanted her.

It does seem to be done better here than in The Mandalorian though. I made the mistake of watching a behind the scenes video for Mando and once they pointed out how those wrap around rear projection screens worked I wasn't able to not see it in the finished episodes. Now I'm not someone who gets super worked up at seeing the joins in special effects, but my brain was going full "that's Chappie" everytime I saw it.

But Chappie was the polar opposite? Ergo, everything real but the robot rotoscoped in versus foreground fake but everything immediate real.

I'm going with Loki somehow was manipulating her since she said something earlier about not sleeping and the episode also opened with her deceiving the TVA agent while having drinks.

Same, it’s a wonderful look. I really appreciate that the scenes set in the TVA have this ‘dusty’ lighting look that you see in the 60/70s.

Also knowing that this track is the TVA’s theme is interesting. It’s got the grandiose air of Murray Gold’s Gallifrey theme, and it’s got the same ticking clock motif.

You get a new trailer for every episode in the MCU, and those episodes are only maybe 2 hours a pop. How is this any different? Hell, most TV shows have a next episode preview.

I'd support all MCU next episode trailers being done in the "Mad Men" format where it is a 20-second series of stream of consciousness fast cuts with quick cuts of characters speaking one random word in the middle of a dialogue that reveals literally nothing about the next episode.
