Wife and I just got back from Strange 2 and are happily in agreement that Raimi still has the juice and isn't a spent force like, say, Tim Burton. Jesus that movie was significantly more bonkers than we expected, and we loved it.

Wanda was terrifying and we loved how frighteningly evil and vicious the movie let her be, it totally owned.

Also, we marked out hard when deadite Strange bound a batwing cloak of damned soul arms and flew up to a demonic temple at the end.
She turns to me and says "that is some of the most Raimi poo poo I have ever seen," and drat if she wasn't right.

Ah you got what i was going for.

I was thinking at work, the MCU FF4 movie, its mid credits sequence, Doom comes into his castle, his Doombots surrounding him, but Doom sends them away. "DOOM may have been thwarted this time Richards:doom:, but next time, DOOM shall Triumph, as DOOM Demands!" and Then Doom goes into a room off his throne room and there in a Doom made hospital bed, is Wanda, and he says "isn't that right my love?"

And then we get Young Avengers D+ series thats Childrens Crusade

I have to think Grant Gustin is close to being done with the Flash. Watching the current episodes of the show he just looks like he hates existing.

Otoh his salary for being in a DC movie would probably be more than he's made in the entire Flash run; that can go a long way for people

Don't get my hopes up. I knew Flash was coming back next season, but never dared hope it would be the last.

It's been a fun hate-watch for about two years now. "Yes, Barry, you're the avatar of love in this universe for some reason. But not all your problems can be solved by making friends with the villain of the season. Knock it off. You can't love the madness out of people."

That has nothing to do with Gustin, BTW. He's been so much fun to watch play Flash for about 5 years, and at that time, he really seemed to enjoy doing it. But he just seems absolutely burned out on the show. So does everyone else, honestly.

Butt first, let's

I genuinely loved the Arrowverse but it feels like in general it just kind of hit a peak with Crisis and everything since has felt like a big come down and maybe time to move on. And the Covid delays kind of just killed my interest and now I'm behind on everything and just don't feel like catching up with the complicated web. It was a lot, I had a great time, I had my fill.

So what’s the deal with Mysterio? Is he like a really good guesser or is he something else? was the “what if” show supposed to come out before or after Strange?

STAC Goat

Multiverse theory isn’t some rare idea. There’s tons of sci fi and horror stories that deal with the idea. Peter knew what it was as soon as Mysterio brought it up. He just picked a sci fi topic to tell his story with.

That it “happens” to happen right before the actual multiverse becomes a major thing in the MCU is just kind of clumsy cute foreshadowing. But in fairness Phase4 has been so wild he could have made up dragons or moon gods or tentacle monsters or zombies and he still would have guessed right.

The actual multiverse chronology is I believe Endgame > Loki > No Way Home > Multiverse of Madness. Far From Home and WandaVision both played with the idea but just like for meta fun/foreshadowing.

Yeah. I don’t think it has to be explained that clearly but if you need it I think the fact that all the conspirators were at Stark and basically on the front line of the madness and scientific theory is good enough to say they built off of ideas that already were in play.

Again the fact that they picked “multiverse” right before that became a thing is clearly just cute foreshadowing by Marvel. But coincidences happen. Nostradamus is a thing.
