If it's anything like the Sony Spider-Man situation, they have the rights to all the Hulk specific characters too so probably not

It's just that most of them aren't very interesting so it doesn't really matter

The only Hulk villain I really want is The Leader.

Played by Jeffrey Combs.

Sure they did, Kingo’s valet.

I'm talking about the comics. They never had any notable characters. No one was going "Ikaris is my favorite Marvel Superman Analog", which as i say it is really silly because i mean, that means you need to choose him over Hyperion and that would just be downright nutty. Anyways, no one gave a poo poo about Eternals. If they weren't a Kirby creation, they'd of had one series back in the 70s and no one would have ever thought about them again.

A.o.D. posted:

In my view, the Eternals suffer in the same place as the Inhumans, too culturally nonhuman to be relatable, but not alien enough to be interesting. In a universe that has Skrulls, Shi-ar, mole people, dire wraiths, nameless ones, and the negative zone, the Eternals and Inhumans always felt like characters taking up the page where more interesting things could be.

Plus it's pretty bad when one of the more interesting Eternals is a date rape drug.

Inhumans at least has characters people like, Black Bolt has been front an center in a lot of stuff, Crystal was popular enough though the years to appear in a bunch of other stuff, and everyone loves Lockjaw.

And hell yes, Dracula is public domain so have him be in the MCU. Dracula in that Avengers storyline a few years ago was really terrifying.

My dream has always been a Marvel vs Capcom style game but the Amalgam universe. Make your own Amalgams from any two characters. Definitely too much work though.

The utter waste of space that was Multiverse of Madness would have been so much better if the Illuminati fight had been against the Justice League. Hell, DC would have been so happy to get the validation they'd probably have let all their superhero actors job to Wanda.

It was possible to make Eternals interesting, as a miniseries on D+.

Hard, but possible.

In a 2 hour movie? No it was doomed.

The movie is almost three hours and felt like it was four. The solution is definitely not to make the story longer.

I have been informed by one of my friends that I should watch Daredevil/The Punisher/Luke Cage/Jessica Jones and in the following order, so I'm going to do that

Daredevil, Season 1
Jessica Jones S1
DD S2
Luke Cage S1
Iron Fist S1
The Defenders
The Punisher S1
JJ S2
LC S2
IF S2
DD S3
Punisher S2
JJ S3

Anything else I should be watching, relating to the non (as of yet) MCU universe?

This is the correct order, but I would advise you to outright not watch JJ S2 and S3, Punisher S2, or any Iron Fist.

Or if you do, go into them knowing they are bad and you have to pick the gold nuggets out of the steaming pile of poop.

JJ S2 (awful) and S3 (poor, but not as bad) are only worth watching when Hogarth is on screen. Iron Fist was getting better, but the lead is awful and it’s only worth watching the Coleen Wing stuff on YouTube. You get just enough Iron Fist in Defenders to sate your curiosity. Punisher S2 throws out the thoughtful, interesting, redemptive anti-violence essay of S1 for “let’s shoot poor people haha”.

It’s only those 4 seasons I put on the “seriously, don’t watch” list. There are poor moments in other seasons (the back half of Luke Cage S1 and Defenders finale), but they are still worth powering through. These 4 seasons are standalone enough you can save them for later and just indulge if you are ready to grit your teeth and deal with the bad stuff for more content. I mean, even I was going “this isn’t that bad actually” at Iron Fist S1 until I hit episode 8 and then I was ready to burn it all to the ground. (Colleen Wing excepted, she’s the best.)

And the back half of DD S2 only feels bad when compared to the stellar first half. It’s still… “fine” compared to many other shows. The only true complaint I have is it never pays off Chekov’s minigun. My balls, so blue.

Controversial opinion, but I thought Elodie Yung was solid as Elektra and had no complaints about her performance.

Given it’s building towards Secret Wars anyway, they could dunk on WB by introducing the Great Society ahead of if. It’d be fun to have a I Can’t Believe It’s Not The Justice League show before the ‘end’ of the universe.

Eternals was merely mediocre and DD S2 was nowhere near the worst of the defenders shows so it’s not even that hot of a take. Now if you say you love Paul Blart Mall Cop or some poo poo, then you might get some stank face.

I was extremely disappointed in Defenders. It ended up just being a continuation of the back half of Daredevil S2.

They also played up the fact that they got Sigourney Weaver for that show, and she does literally nothing.
