I just got Disney+ so I'm finally getting around to watching the Marvel shows.

I know I'm quite a bit late on all the discussion, but I just wanted to make sure: I'm not the only one who would have been totally OK with WandaVision just being parodies of old sitcoms, right?

Some people seemed to really hate the first couple of episodes, but I loved them and would have been happy to stick with them all the way through.

I really liked the early episodes but with the weekly release schedule it did feel like we were kept in the dark a bit too long about what was going on.

I thought the first episode wasn't funny enough to function as an actual sitcom. Second episode was much better in that regard.

Yeah I remember articles talking about how they filmed it in front of a studio audience and all I could think was "well they must have been leaning on that applause/laughter button pretty fuckin hard then"

the CG for She-Hulk doesn't look finished, but they only showed a couple brief glimpses of her so that's forgivable enough. there's also apparently some sort of fantasy sequence set in the 1970s?

agree that the Moon Knight footage looks pretty good

the Ms. Marvel footage showed hardly anything of her powers, so I wonder if there's at least a chance that they're reconsidering the Purple Crystal Lantern powers. I wouldn't bet on it, but it would explain the lengthy delay, at least.

Considering how far off it is I thought the She-Hulk footage looked fine enough for a preview. Obviously not done, though. Always been a little worried about how that effect was going to come across.

Saying "coming soon" for most makes it seem like 2022 if X-Men was straight-up announced for 2023. But maybe they just want to be sure, first.

Moon Knight has been done filming for a while so it probably isn't too far off.

Echoeing that the Moon Knight footage looks really good. She-Hulk looks okay as well, though I wonder how much better we can expect the final series to look. Having a CGI main character can't be cheap, right? I have no idea what kind of money goes into these shows, so I don't know if Hulk and She-Hulk will look as good as the CGI characters in the theatrical films.

It looks like they might just be making Maslany green and letting perspective and different costuming/hair/makeup do the rest.

The interesting thing about the She-Hulk footage to me (spoiler for Shang-Chi) is that Banner is Professor Hulk in it, unlike in Shang-Chi, where he's puny Banner. Maybe it wasn't just not wanting to do the effects for that postcredits scene, and instead we'll find out why he reverted?

Watching you sleep.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

She Hulk traditionally is muscled up and taller but not like all Hulked out. I know she got Hulked out eventually but this seems like its more of the traditional take where its Jennifer getting all filled with self confidence in her beauty and strength instead of Bruce dealing with his anger. So like I don't think you have to do as much CGI work there. Like theoretically if Maslany is already buffed enough from training you can just dress her down as Jennifer, maybe even make her shorter than Maslany is, and then just blow her up a little and let the difference do the work?

I dunno. But I'm not expecting it needs a huge CGI monster for her. But then again we can see that Bruce Hulk is there and we've heard Abomination is so it seems like we're gonna get CGI monsters anyway.

We see him as regular Bruce too in other shots so I think he's just gonna be able to change back and forth now. I feel like that shot of Bruce having Jennifer in a cage and telling her that the transformation is triggered by anger is gonna be a whole red herring to Jennifer just having the control over it that it took Bruce years to manage.

You can watch the Disney Day thing they have on Disney+ but the first half of the runtime is entirely skippable as it's just a quick recap of each Disney+ show so far.

My sense is that the post-credits scenes are often done on a much tighter post-production schedule than the film proper, so you might be right on that

The Disney+ video also includes Armor Wars, the Guardians Holiday Special, and Loki Season 2.

So I'm guessing next years release schedule might go:
Late January - Moon Knight
Mid March - She Hulk
June/July - Ms. Marvel
September - What If Season 2
November - Secret Invasion
December - Guardians Holiday Special
Maybe throw in I Am Groot, as that was announced a while ago, and I assume the rest will be 2023.

It seems nutty to me that Disney hid an ad for their subscription service behind their subscription service's paywall. If they hadn't offered me a Disney+ Day discount I wouldn't have gotten to see any of these sneak peeks.

Not to defend a giant corporation cause who gives a poo poo, but why would he get paid for this unless they’re copying the comic word for word? They asked the zombie guy to write their zombie books it’s not like he created it.
