My biggest fear is that the new casting will affect doom in the comics because of ‘mcu synergy’. Like how they entirely changed peter quill’s personality in the comics to match chris pratt.
DOOM is way too established to change in any meaningful way just because of the MCU. Something like GOTG got changed because no one really read those comics and the movie was a mega hit so they could make that change (wether you like or dislike the change).

@@TheEvilCheesecake I don't know, the base premise of displate is a nice product that clearly appeals to a demographic. The problem as of late is the fact that they started inundating their selections with AI "art". They diluted their brand, and now the cost of their product, that used to be justifiable as a sort of 'premium' product that supports artists, just isn't anymore.
Guys at Rocket Jump use to say "A movie is not MADE, until your butt is in a chair and you're watching the credits role" and I think that is even more prevalent now than ever. Especially since a show/movie can be completely made and still get deleted off its streaming service never to be seen again.
@YaBoiJonesy yeah the reason that is is because every version have been lame and stupid. The marvel comics universe STARTED with the fantastic four, with everything else after building upon it, like the first Iron Man to the films. What I'm saying is the fantastic four COULD BE marvels next big thing and could save the mcu, just like the comic did in 1961
I think RDJ as Doctor Doom would've worked far better if they hadn't revealed it to us beforehands. I really like the idea of an alternate universe Tony Stark where he became Doctor Doom instead of Iron Man, but imagine how much better and more exciting that reveal would be if it had happened, you know... in the movie? These televised reveal events only serve to sow doubt and speculation, most of which will skew toward the negative.
@@GloriousSwordHorse Everyone would. Look at the number of fuckups the MCU had and people still show up hoping it will be better this time. People hated Amazing Spider-Man but still showed up for MCU's Spider-Man. People will do the same for FF even after its failures, there was no need to reveal RDJ except that Disney is feeling the pressure to do something right now rather than in 2026... That desperation may cause them to damage their own movies.
@@tortoiseoflegends4466 He may show up, after all who's the villain going to be other than Doctor Doom. Unless they kill the Romani Doctor Doom and then RDJ comes out in the end credit scene like "I'm the bad guy now!" xD

@@mackielunkey2205 only actually good FF movie wasn't even released and was apparently burnt to pieces by Avi Arad. So, lets just say the bar is pretty fucking low.
I don't think "star power" is what will save the MCU, because you guys may not remember it, but RJD and Chris Evans weren't "top dogs" in Hollywood before the MCU. Sure, they had roles here and there, but they had nowhere near the "star power" they have today. The MCU carried them as much as they carried the MCU. So no, I don't think RDJ as Doom is what will save the MUC. If the MCU introduces the F4 AND the X-men in a satisfying way, THEN we're talking. People forget the X-men were the "golden goose" of Marvel before the Avengers, and its time to remind them of that.
The MCU fid not carry RDJ because without RDJ would be no MCU (not as we know it today, anyway). RDJ and Chris Evans are perfect castings that are pretty rare and those guys are the big reason MCU Phase 1-3 was such a success (Feige being another big part). RDJ is not going to save MCU (it's a stupid term and MCU does not need saving). Downey is almost 60 years old, he is too old to put MCU on his shoulders again. So MCU will be fine until people stop caring about superhero movies or stop going to cinema altogether.
He clearly didnt mean star power in that way he meant they were extremely charismatic and felt like a stand out presence in their movie while current mcu movies lack that caliber of main character
Unfortunately they fumbled the remake trilogy that was chill till the apocalypse/phoenix bits. And new mutants...sigh..I feel like we will just get more of that and fan4stick stuff. Where are the people that worked on Xmen '97 at????
"MCU Carried Them as much as they carried MCU". Your way underselling RDJ bro. Iron man was the hit that set the tone for the whole MCU up to End Game. That was all built on RDJ's performance and John Favreu's direction, allowing actors to improvise their lines and inject humor and authenticity. I'll say MCU maybe carried Chris Evans and definitely some of the others. But RDJ is a big reason why the MCU became the MCU.
As you touched on here, I believe we should WANT corporations desperate. Especially in regards to creative industries controlled by said corporate executives. The "console wars" are a pretty good representation of what happens when one company feels WAY ahead of it's competition. PS2 killing it, so arrogant with it's pricing and structure of PS3, let 360 run all over them. 360 dominates market for a long stretch, completely miss the mark with Xbone reveal. PS4 (now 5)kills market and look at their choices and pricing models now. There's more to it than just that synopsis, but I believe the idea holds up to scrutiny. Desperate is when creatives often get the green light to run with their ideas from their IP owners. I'd feel RDJr is a terrible idea normally..but then the Russo bros at the helm? Have they made a bad movie? also...could you please review the Buffy seasons? I can't be the only one who'd like to see that (and agrees with your take on best to worst seasons)
I disagree. When they get desperate they don't take real risks, they just make dumb decisions. Like Sony hoping that Kraven the Hunter will be the next Venom despite having no concept for who the character is or why people care about him. Or tossing a famousbactor into a random franchise movie and hoping people will by yickets bc of the face. Desperate Hollywood isn't interested in art or story its interested in tossing enough IP outnthroughoutntue year that something ends up a hit, and they never seem much bothered with understanding why theboje project was a hit and the rest flops. "NWH was a success? Great! Lets do it again instead of paying off on the new status quo it so effectively set up."
You're not wrong here, but I just don't get the impression that this is the kind of desperation. We're not seeing a corporation that's willing to give up control and leave it all on the faith that their creatives will pull through. No, that was with their more experimental titles like Wandavision, MoM and Eternals. Hell, the fact that they paid RDJ such an obscene amount of money suggests the exact opposite. What We're witnessing here is pure corporate pride mannig the ship, throwing money to fix the problem and running around like a headless chicken. This has happened so many times in the film industry, and NONE of it leads to good films.
We saw the desperation effect too with Capcom. The absolute shit times and games they had on late 2000's to late 2010's led us to things like SF6, Resident Evil remakes (bar 3), or DMC 5. A desperate time is when a company stops fucking around and starts to listen or crash and burn with no survivors.
To add, with the advent of Gamepass being such a game changer by Microsoft, Sony has finally begun making their console exclusives available for PC. Hell, the MCU was borne out of desperation since Marvel had none of their big characters and were left with the B team and fighting to avoid bankruptcy, so they put all their eggs on Iron Man. The rest is history. Now DC is looking for a strong revival with one of the MCUs most successful creatives at the helm, plus their continued failure to get another hit that isn't controversial. I'm thinking it's safe to say we're gonna get some really big swings from Marvel soon.
the naming thing I agree, I remember a lot of people freaking out about penguin being "renamed" to Oswald "Oz" Cobb dropping the "lepott" like it was blasphemy
If it’s bad enough, part way through the video he’d just be like: “You know what, no! I am not reviewing this! This misunderstands literally everything that makes the Fantastic 4 fun! I’m not doing this anymore! I’d rather review Bluey, that watch this sh*#. You know what f*$% it, this video is a Bluey review now!”
This whole RDJ thing somehow feels like one of the biggest risks Marvel as ever taken, and yet one of the smallest at the same time. If they go safe here, they lose. Also agree on FF, if they fail here is guaranteed Joever
I would like to point out that ROMANI =/= ROMANIAN. Most people born in that region of Europe aren't ROMANI, ROMANIANS aren't ROMANI and ROMANI aren't ROMANIANS.
@@whyiwakeup6460 her story wasn’t resolved. They barely gave us any backstory about her in WandaVision. This show expanded greatly on who she is, and it helped introduce Wiccan which will lead into Vision Quest, Young Avengers and Scarlet Witch’s return. Agatha All Along was a necessary show for the MCU.
IDK Marcus, they are not paying this man the budget of half a Phase 1 flick for him to just be a variant that gets cast aside. Call me crazy but that's not really a sensible move no matter how you look at it, if he's not an alt Doom that BECOMES main Doom, I'll send ya $10 lol
i really dont think the amount of money he got is a big deal at all. its disney lmao, theyve kinda got a lot of money. rdj was probably like "alright ill come back if you give me 80 mil" and disney was like "uh okay sure"
They are just slotting RDJ’s DOOM into the same role Kang was going to play in Avengers 4 & 5. He’ll be gone after that, just like they didn’t keep Thanos around after his two parter
The MCU truly did peak with Endgame. Sure we are gonna have cool moments coming up but narratively the run of Iron Man to Endgame will never be replicated
and its sad cause the infinity saga had a fuckton of missed opportunities (no iron man vs real mandarin, malekith personality removed, no captain america/red skull rematch, ronan-baron strucker-executioner-crossbones-ultron-klaw-black order get killed off too early, black widow not getting movie right after civil war)
For me, I think the problem is that after Endgame and Guardians 3, we have said goodbye to a lot of beloved characters, that basicly carried the MCU, like Captain America, Iron Man, Chadwick Boseman and now The Guardians! They have spend the time ever since to establish all these new characters, but unfortuanally... failed miserable, cause they apear one time in a bland show or movie and then we dont see them again, like.. we havent seen Shang Chi in years! There is nothing to make me excited for Avengers doomsday cause there has been no build up or cohesive storyline through the movies or shows! Then they cast RDJ as Victor Doom, which just screams panick to me Xdddd
Endgame felt like an ending to a series. Sure a sequel series might work but we have to like the new characters and can't just be told we should because some older character we like does.
The thing about these new characters is that they take way too long to bring them back from their original introduction, like you said in your 2nd mini paragraph, but they only do that to introduce more characters nobody really cares about. I mean, is anyone excited for Ironheart? Did *anyone* want a show about Agatha?(which is good so far so I'm not complaining, I just don't know why the idea for her having her own project even existed other than Kathryn Hahn just being a good actress).
It was a big mistake to only have 2 avengers movies for the entire saga. In half the time, we were supposed to fall in love with like double the characters and set up s new villain that in all honesty, hasn't done sht. Now in less time we gotta now develop a totally different guy running purely off of actor bias and character hype rather than any good story telling like thanos
@@x0gucx To be fair I loved Kang the second I saw him in Loki. He was so different from someone like Thanos or any other villain and Major's acting made it even more interesting. It's unfortunate he's gone because I would've loved to see what they did with Kang.
Despite being a variant, I think they should have cast someone else instead of relying on Robert Downey Jr, it just felt wrong for many reasons especially the whole Spider Man interacting this guy.
@@andyblanton6570i mean sure, but its not like they haven't used different actors for variants, like maybe i haven't watched enough of the new shit, but i swear only kang used the same actor no?
I feel like rdj is gonna be playing a tony stark variant that continued being involved in weapons manufacturing and eventually people started calling him dr doom and the name stuck. God i hope its something like this
5:07 lol she did already show up in a movie (the ending of The Marvels), to do a setup for Young Avengers, unfortunately nobody saw it because it's already a niche movie that's a sequel to a movie and two shows.
To the point at 12:42, I would agree that Doom doesn't need to be perfectly faithful to the original source... but we've never gotten a solid film adaptation of that. I think F4 fans just want to see a solid adaptation of the basics without changing things up before getting wacky with it. There have been several attempts already, and they haven't worked to communicate Doom's basic elements. He doesn't always have to be Victor, the evil wizard ruler of Latveria, morally complicated and sometimes-ally... but it would be nice to see that once.
@@l.n.3372 I don’t think anyone who was a legit FF fan has ever written or directed an FF movie. And when he get an MCU FF movie there is a good chance we will be in an MCU Spider-Man situation where it won’t be traditional in certain ways in an explicit attempt to differentiate itself from the two prior adaptations. Doom would have been saved for later like how Spider-Man Homecoming doesn’t use Green Goblin, and The Batman doesn’t use Joker
yeah the reason why Reed Richards being Dr Doom worked is because audiences were already familiar with the original Dr Doom, hence why it was such an interesting twist. The MCU is leap-frogging the original Dr Doom in order to get some star power out of casting RDJ So RDJ playing an alternate universe version of Tony Stark, in which Tony Stark is Dr Doom, can absolutely work and is a cool idea (at least, that's my theory as to what is happening. If RDJ is playing Victor von Doom, that's a whole other can of worms). But make no mistake, the MCU still made the conscious decision to skip the original version of the character in favor of star power.
@@hannahw7023 Well they did say that this was Victor Von Doom, not an Iron Man variant. How do you think that changes things? I think what they should do is keep it faithful as much as possible. Obviously, there has to be some kind of explanation for why he looks like Iron Man but it shouldn't be that he used to be Tony Stark and turned into Doom.
6:31 I thought i was sick of superhero stuff, but then i watched Deadpool and Wolverine, which then led me to watch X-Men The Animated Series, into X-Men 97. And i came to realize exactly what you just said. I wasn't sick of superhero stuff, i was just sick of mid superhero stuff.
6:54 I also think the MCU is majorly suffering from star power. Idgaf about another overpaid A list celebrity cast just for their face/name. Give me talent and someone who actually fits the role.
Fantastic Four rant was warranted lol, they can’t afford to mess that up. With regards to MCU Doom, while this most certainly won’t be the version we love from the earth-616 comics, I hope they don’t completely abandon the concepts around Doom that make him an interesting character, specifically his connection to mystic parts of the marvel universe such as Mephisto and the like, and his motivations as a character, an endless, selfish pursuit of power to make up for his inability to save his mother. Whether or not he’s Romani or the leader of Latveria (which he hopefully will be) aren’t as important (but are low key fucked up to exclude, Disney/Marvel are all talk and no action on progressive politics as all corpo slop companies are), but I think there is an expectation for the character of Dr. Doom and who he is as a person and his past that people will be looking for. I personally feel an adaptation closer to the current Ultimate Doom (who isn’t even that universe’s Dr. Doom, who may or may not be alive after the Secret War story that was just an excuse to get Miles to Earth-616), where he’s another universe’s Reed Richards made into Doom by the Maker, who is the actual ultimate universe Reed Richards, is probably the worst example of how they could adapt Dr. Doom, imo, because he is only Doom in name and they might as well just do anything else at that rate lol, because they aren’t representing the actual character, just the name. The worst possible thing they could do though is somehow connect MCU Doom’s story to Tony Stark. That’s the last thing we need if we want the MCU to move forward.
Marcus. Marcus. Please, PLEASE do a long Buffy review. ...actually I would love a Bluey video too, thank you. My partner watches it and even though it's a little kids show that mostly has ultra light kid plots, once in a while there are suprisingly nuanced yet still kid-friendly takes on some heavy topics.
Regarding the Blade movie that is never coming out, I am still in SHOCK with the amount of production issues that film is having right now. I can only speculate and say that corporate meddling is being ESPECIALLY egregious there. They wouldn't have that many issues otherwise.
@@IbrahimToure_ Hilarious statement when we haven't even seen Creature Commandos yet. Sure, Gunn has precedent and The Suicide Squad is one of the old DCEU best, but that doesn't mean everything he touches will be gold.
Yeah, I'm with you. I dont really have a strong opinion on the idea of Doom until we actually see what their idea is lol. And don't mess the F4 up... again again!
I swear people say this after every well received MCU project that came out. In 30 years people will be saying that now that the Howard the Duck trilogy is complete they're done with the MCU. It's like Doctor Who fans that say with every new season that the show ended with the previous Doctor
I don't care though. I am not watching a spin off show about a secondary character from a spin off show about a tertiary MCU character. Same goes for Echo. I would have maybe considered watching a Season 2 of WandaVision or Hawkeye but no... sorry.
“Welcome to the MCU by the way, you’re joining at a bit of a low point.” -Deadpool *HA!* Funny Marvel, still doesn’t make that low point go away though.
people will just be coping and say its good just like when disney serves star wars slop and at least half of the fanbase slurps it and says "thanks i want more"
@@EquineDreams3Doom isn’t the villain of F4, and will likely only appear in the end-credits scene. The direction they’re taking the character seems largely disconnected to what Shakman is doing with this first F4 film.
I would personally want to see doom being set up in the upcoming movies before doomsday. Other dooms, that arent the rdj doom. They can change some of the context of latveria and prime doom, but the thing is that a lot of the modernized heroes of the mcu were done to make less appetizing characters more cool. But doom is kind of already cool, and a lot of people know that, I think.
Fully agree. The weird takes work in the comics because of the decades of not weird comics forming the comparison with the weird stuff. You could probably pull off weird with batman or spiderman by now, but outside of that I don't think any of the heroes have that kind of foundation on screen.
it makes no sense no sense to complain about that now considering that half the MCU has completely different takes/personalities that are not faithful to the comics.
He may be from a different universe but that’s definitely the MCU doom. Marvel isn’t blowing 80 million dollars just for a variant. That’s main doom and you also know they didn’t spend 80 million on one face to cover it up. Dooms gonna barely wear the mask to show Downey’s face.
@@frankwoods1531 I'm not; if the course-corrected MCU gets back on track then Disney will profit from shelling out on RDJ's 'return' movie for potentially years.
2 expectations: 1. I just don’t want Dr. Doom to have his mask be a repurposed Iron Man mask or have a “Mr. Stark?” scene with Tom Holland 2. I feel the same way about F4 as you Marcus…this has been in the works for YEARS and if they mess it up I’m gonna lose it…
I am hoping that RDJ plays Victor Von Doom (not some Iron Man variant) and nobody acknowledges he looks like Tony Stark. It's just movie magic and they straight up treat him as an entirely different person. No Spiderman in tears or looking confused. RDJ just acts completely different, no quips or hint of Tony Stark. I hope they nail F4, but the cast already has me worried. I think F4 is just cursed. Chris Evans in Deadpool is going to be the best thing the Fantastic Four name gives us in the foreseeable future.
I honestly doubt he's had time to watch it yet. It may surprise him, but I can see why, he's uninterested because he wasn't *that* impressed with Wandavision either. He thought it was "okay".
There are so many actors out there in the world and yet they cast RDJ as Doctor Doom?! The fact people are more interested at the ideas of Spider-Man seeing Doctor Doom's face instead of Reed Richard and Doctor Doom interacting just tells me how bad the casting is.
Honestly they accidentally clicked “hard mode” with that casting. They have a lot to prove in order to justify that casting and they probably thought it was an easy way to recover from Kang.
I think Cosmo’s Doom rant perfectly encapsulates it. It could end up being very interesting and cool, but it could also be a nail in the coffin and a complete fucking mess.
About the Superior Spider-Man section at 13:48, I just need to say that if you don't think the payoff of that scene with Peter and Norman is PEAK SPIDER-MAN.... Then I don't know what to say
I know you made a joke about us only wanting MCU content, but I’d really enjoy hearing about movies you love, especially if they aren’t as well known or older. Like I loved the Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace video you did a while back.
@@TeoReviews I will never forget watching Captain America 2 and the SHOCK spreading through the audience when Bucky was revealed as the Winter Solider. The Average person watches these movies with zero comic book knowledge
Which is why the MCU built him up to movie fans on its own, for like most of the MCU's run up to Infinity War. Hell, no one knew who Iron Man was either, but then they built him up over two movies before even doing Avengers, then developed his character more so his ending meant a lot. Kang? One TV show he is barely in, and one very mid Ant Man movie. That's it.
The hype was built right. That's all to it. They didn't make black widow fricking kill thanos in its first appearance or some shit. The multiverse theory makes them have a less value than what the actual value of the caharacter is. The one who remains, okay if he's dead then the other version can come. But the one that defeated in antman? Nah. And marvel have this kind of trends where they have to tell us how dangerous kang is instead of showing it. And then just die. The built up of his character was wronged in nany levels
Agatha all along has actually been great thus far. Never knew of her character before but am throughly enjoying her as the lead. She has that star power but most people aren't even giving the show a try. That's the downside of hardcore marvel fans.
7:10 gonna push back on that because very few people in the general public truly loved Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America before the MCU started in 08. Making a good, right stand alone movie comes first.
I think his point was more about the actors that carried those films. Alot of the performances from these new shows and films lack charisma, and that isnt the fault of the actors (like Hailee Steinfeld has great stage presence in general) but its just too oversaturated imo. Too many characters, too many actors, no performance is able to stand out like it once did.
FWIW I saw the first two episodes of Agatha All Along premiere in theaters, and it made me actually excited for the first time in *years.* Felt like the good ole days. Call me optimistic but I gotta agree with Marcus on this one, the MCU does seem to be learning the right lessons
@@WiloPolis03 bruh, you literally said nothing about anything. You mentioned some vague lessons that Marvel is learning and I questioned some of the lesson I see MCU learning. And Agatha is made by people from Wandavision so I still do not know what is MCU learning truly. Guess I am not learning 😆
"You're gonna watch it anyway" is a pretty wild claim considering these movies have been hemorrhaging left and right for half a decade. Remember how you just said Marvel is desperate? It's certainly not because people are watching their slop anyway.
@MilkMan7300 yeah he seemed like narcissistic asshole when he compared himself to MLK, but the only evidence we saw was of him being chased and attacked by his ex and a few people on Twitter saying he was violent after the fact. I love Marcus but he should chill on any and all virtue signaling in the future.
Avengers team lead by Tom Holland, Anthony Mackie, and Sebastian Stan will DEFINITELY get people in seats. They all three have great chemistry, especially Mackie and Stan
I honestly don’t understand why anyone would complain about a movie before it gets released. Unless it’s some outrageous shit that just sounds bad. (Like ANOTHER fast and furious) then yeah, complain all you want. But a casting, or some other basic changes to a character or story is NOT THAT DEEP.
Facts about fantastic four. After 2 (technically 3) versions that failed to get them, then finally the rights are back at marvel and it STILL FLOPS, marvel is finished. They've gotta understand that if they fuck this shit up, not only is the fantastic four never reaching the mainstream ever again, but the future marvel universe, which started in the 60s with the fantastic four AT THE CENTRE, is finished. I don't care if the other films are good, the concept of an interconnected marvel universe is over
@@BrettEPierce ehhhh not necessarily; I love Norrin Radd, and would kill for a solo series or movie kinda like the Dan Slott run, however, I'm pretty sure its confirmed this fantastic four is an elseworld, so I assume Norrin Radd exists in the main universe OR will be in the main universe after Secret Wars
I would love to hear your thoughts on Agatha All Along because I just finished it a few days ago and found it surprisingly entertaining, and sometimes even kinda good? Like, most of it is whatever but there's a particular episode that's really good and about halfway through it goes off the rails in a way I generally liked, even though the execution suffered sometimes. Anyways, I think it did a lot right as a show that specifically addressed concerns about its relevance to the greater universe, and it's the first MCU thing in a while that's made me excited about the universe overall again.
17:00 hell, James Gunn has developed his DCU (DC UNIVERSE) on the way when Superman (2025) will come out.... I have high hopes and superpower enough Super James Gunn, and so do the other DCU films in the mid-2020s.
I agree so much with Kang. Jonathan Majors' exit was a blessing in disguise. I never felt the same gravitas as Thanos at all when I saw a Kang variant appear. Heck, I was lamenting that we were stuck with him over Dr. Doom or Galactus.
Kang in Quantumania is laughable, and not just because he gets owned by stampeding ants. It's because he fails so hard at being intimidating. He's just cheesy. Compare his performance with Ralph Fiennes as Voldemort in The Goblet of Fire. They're both so over the top, it's hilarious.
4:24 I grew up on marvel animated movies and TV. Kang was my favorite avengers villain! It was tied between him and Ultron. Apparently the MCU fucked them both over.😤
I feel like, if 2023 made it okay to dislike the MCU, then 2024 made it cool to dislike it. It's so hard to believe that 2019 was just five years ago...

@@TheEvilCheesecake I don't know, the base premise of displate is a nice product that clearly appeals to a demographic. The problem as of late is the fact that they started inundating their selections with AI "art". They diluted their brand, and now the cost of their product, that used to be justifiable as a sort of 'premium' product that supports artists, just isn't anymore.
Guys at Rocket Jump use to say "A movie is not MADE, until your butt is in a chair and you're watching the credits role" and I think that is even more prevalent now than ever. Especially since a show/movie can be completely made and still get deleted off its streaming service never to be seen again.
That escalated… slowly haha
But I agree with the Fantastic Four argument, they just have to do it right, there’s no mid-term

@@YaBoiJonesy bc most mcu fans are just movie fans and never picked up a comic
Thats what im saying man l, if they dont work, doom aint working
Honestly... Now I kinda want it to crash and burn alongside the rest of the MCU.
Just to have Marcus talk about Bluey.
@YaBoiJonesy yeah the reason that is is because every version have been lame and stupid. The marvel comics universe STARTED with the fantastic four, with everything else after building upon it, like the first Iron Man to the films. What I'm saying is the fantastic four COULD BE marvels next big thing and could save the mcu, just like the comic did in 1961
I think RDJ as Doctor Doom would've worked far better if they hadn't revealed it to us beforehands. I really like the idea of an alternate universe Tony Stark where he became Doctor Doom instead of Iron Man, but imagine how much better and more exciting that reveal would be if it had happened, you know... in the movie? These televised reveal events only serve to sow doubt and speculation, most of which will skew toward the negative.
it would be nice but they cannot afford to do it. Who's going to watch yet another FF movie if they didn't tell people RDJ is doom?
@@GloriousSwordHorse Doom isn't in the Fantastic Four movie though (besides a rumoured after credits scene.)
@@GloriousSwordHorse Everyone would. Look at the number of fuckups the MCU had and people still show up hoping it will be better this time. People hated Amazing Spider-Man but still showed up for MCU's Spider-Man. People will do the same for FF even after its failures, there was no need to reveal RDJ except that Disney is feeling the pressure to do something right now rather than in 2026... That desperation may cause them to damage their own movies.
@@tortoiseoflegends4466 He may show up, after all who's the villain going to be other than Doctor Doom. Unless they kill the Romani Doctor Doom and then RDJ comes out in the end credit scene like "I'm the bad guy now!" xD

Pretty understandable, since from what I’ve heard, the last few FF movies are not exactly classics lol
@@mackielunkey2205 only actually good FF movie wasn't even released and was apparently burnt to pieces by Avi Arad. So, lets just say the bar is pretty fucking low.
I don't think "star power" is what will save the MCU, because you guys may not remember it, but RJD and Chris Evans weren't "top dogs" in Hollywood before the MCU. Sure, they had roles here and there, but they had nowhere near the "star power" they have today. The MCU carried them as much as they carried the MCU.
So no, I don't think RDJ as Doom is what will save the MUC. If the MCU introduces the F4 AND the X-men in a satisfying way, THEN we're talking. People forget the X-men were the "golden goose" of Marvel before the Avengers, and its time to remind them of that.
The MCU fid not carry RDJ because without RDJ would be no MCU (not as we know it today, anyway). RDJ and Chris Evans are perfect castings that are pretty rare and those guys are the big reason MCU Phase 1-3 was such a success (Feige being another big part).
RDJ is not going to save MCU (it's a stupid term and MCU does not need saving). Downey is almost 60 years old, he is too old to put MCU on his shoulders again.
So MCU will be fine until people stop caring about superhero movies or stop going to cinema altogether.
He clearly didnt mean star power in that way he meant they were extremely charismatic and felt like a stand out presence in their movie while current mcu movies lack that caliber of main character
I don’t think anything will save the MCU at this point. It’s just done for imo.
Unfortunately they fumbled the remake trilogy that was chill till the apocalypse/phoenix bits. And new mutants...sigh..I feel like we will just get more of that and fan4stick stuff. Where are the people that worked on Xmen '97 at????
"MCU Carried Them as much as they carried MCU". Your way underselling RDJ bro. Iron man was the hit that set the tone for the whole MCU up to End Game. That was all built on RDJ's performance and John Favreu's direction, allowing actors to improvise their lines and inject humor and authenticity. I'll say MCU maybe carried Chris Evans and definitely some of the others. But RDJ is a big reason why the MCU became the MCU.

I unironically beg of you to review every season of buffy the vampire slayer in order. That would be such a fun mix-up.
As you touched on here, I believe we should WANT corporations desperate. Especially in regards to creative industries controlled by said corporate executives. The "console wars" are a pretty good representation of what happens when one company feels WAY ahead of it's competition. PS2 killing it, so arrogant with it's pricing and structure of PS3, let 360 run all over them. 360 dominates market for a long stretch, completely miss the mark with Xbone reveal. PS4 (now 5)kills market and look at their choices and pricing models now. There's more to it than just that synopsis, but I believe the idea holds up to scrutiny. Desperate is when creatives often get the green light to run with their ideas from their IP owners. I'd feel RDJr is a terrible idea normally..but then the Russo bros at the helm? Have they made a bad movie?
also...could you please review the Buffy seasons? I can't be the only one who'd like to see that (and agrees with your take on best to worst seasons)
I disagree. When they get desperate they don't take real risks, they just make dumb decisions. Like Sony hoping that Kraven the Hunter will be the next Venom despite having no concept for who the character is or why people care about him. Or tossing a famousbactor into a random franchise movie and hoping people will by yickets bc of the face.
Desperate Hollywood isn't interested in art or story its interested in tossing enough IP outnthroughoutntue year that something ends up a hit, and they never seem much bothered with understanding why theboje project was a hit and the rest flops. "NWH was a success? Great! Lets do it again instead of paying off on the new status quo it so effectively set up."
You're not wrong here, but I just don't get the impression that this is the kind of desperation. We're not seeing a corporation that's willing to give up control and leave it all on the faith that their creatives will pull through. No, that was with their more experimental titles like Wandavision, MoM and Eternals.
Hell, the fact that they paid RDJ such an obscene amount of money suggests the exact opposite. What We're witnessing here is pure corporate pride mannig the ship, throwing money to fix the problem and running around like a headless chicken. This has happened so many times in the film industry, and NONE of it leads to good films.
We saw the desperation effect too with Capcom. The absolute shit times and games they had on late 2000's to late 2010's led us to things like SF6, Resident Evil remakes (bar 3), or DMC 5. A desperate time is when a company stops fucking around and starts to listen or crash and burn with no survivors.
To add, with the advent of Gamepass being such a game changer by Microsoft, Sony has finally begun making their console exclusives available for PC.
Hell, the MCU was borne out of desperation since Marvel had none of their big characters and were left with the B team and fighting to avoid bankruptcy, so they put all their eggs on Iron Man. The rest is history. Now DC is looking for a strong revival with one of the MCUs most successful creatives at the helm, plus their continued failure to get another hit that isn't controversial. I'm thinking it's safe to say we're gonna get some really big swings from Marvel soon.

IDK Marcus, they are not paying this man the budget of half a Phase 1 flick for him to just be a variant that gets cast aside.

The MCU truly did peak with Endgame. Sure we are gonna have cool moments coming up but narratively the run of Iron Man to Endgame will never be replicated
Yeah, the story is over and we’ve just been doing Side quests.
I'd say Infinity War was the peak, Endgame was the slightly underwhelming conclusion
It actually peaked with Infinity War. Endgame isn't as good as people think. The time travel nonsense ruined it.
and its sad cause the infinity saga had a fuckton of missed opportunities (no iron man vs real mandarin, malekith personality removed, no captain america/red skull rematch, ronan-baron strucker-executioner-crossbones-ultron-klaw-black order get killed off too early, black widow not getting movie right after civil war)
peaked with infinity war. End game was a mess
For me, I think the problem is that after Endgame and Guardians 3, we have said goodbye to a lot of beloved characters, that basicly carried the MCU, like Captain America, Iron Man, Chadwick Boseman and now The Guardians!
They have spend the time ever since to establish all these new characters, but unfortuanally... failed miserable, cause they apear one time in a bland show or movie and then we dont see them again, like.. we havent seen Shang Chi in years!
There is nothing to make me excited for Avengers doomsday cause there has been no build up or cohesive storyline through the movies or shows!
Then they cast RDJ as Victor Doom, which just screams panick to me Xdddd
Endgame felt like an ending to a series. Sure a sequel series might work but we have to like the new characters and can't just be told we should because some older character we like does.
The thing about these new characters is that they take way too long to bring them back from their original introduction, like you said in your 2nd mini paragraph, but they only do that to introduce more characters nobody really cares about. I mean, is anyone excited for Ironheart? Did *anyone* want a show about Agatha?(which is good so far so I'm not complaining, I just don't know why the idea for her having her own project even existed other than Kathryn Hahn just being a good actress).
It was a big mistake to only have 2 avengers movies for the entire saga. In half the time, we were supposed to fall in love with like double the characters and set up s new villain that in all honesty, hasn't done sht. Now in less time we gotta now develop a totally different guy running purely off of actor bias and character hype rather than any good story telling like thanos
MCU character Chadwick Boseman
@@x0gucx To be fair I loved Kang the second I saw him in Loki. He was so different from someone like Thanos or any other villain and Major's acting made it even more interesting. It's unfortunate he's gone because I would've loved to see what they did with Kang.

Starts at 2:30
*pourquoi?* 🤔
Explode
To the point at 12:42, I would agree that Doom doesn't need to be perfectly faithful to the original source... but we've never gotten a solid film adaptation of that. I think F4 fans just want to see a solid adaptation of the basics without changing things up before getting wacky with it. There have been several attempts already, and they haven't worked to communicate Doom's basic elements. He doesn't always have to be Victor, the evil wizard ruler of Latveria, morally complicated and sometimes-ally... but it would be nice to see that once.
I don't understand how animated shows and video games can get Doom perfectly yet live action cannot.
The unofficial 90s movie had a more faithful Doom than the others
@@l.n.3372 I don’t think anyone who was a legit FF fan has ever written or directed an FF movie. And when he get an MCU FF movie there is a good chance we will be in an MCU Spider-Man situation where it won’t be traditional in certain ways in an explicit attempt to differentiate itself from the two prior adaptations.
Doom would have been saved for later like how Spider-Man Homecoming doesn’t use Green Goblin, and The Batman doesn’t use Joker
yeah the reason why Reed Richards being Dr Doom worked is because audiences were already familiar with the original Dr Doom, hence why it was such an interesting twist. The MCU is leap-frogging the original Dr Doom in order to get some star power out of casting RDJ
So RDJ playing an alternate universe version of Tony Stark, in which Tony Stark is Dr Doom, can absolutely work and is a cool idea (at least, that's my theory as to what is happening. If RDJ is playing Victor von Doom, that's a whole other can of worms). But make no mistake, the MCU still made the conscious decision to skip the original version of the character in favor of star power.
@@hannahw7023 Well they did say that this was Victor Von Doom, not an Iron Man variant. How do you think that changes things? I think what they should do is keep it faithful as much as possible. Obviously, there has to be some kind of explanation for why he looks like Iron Man but it shouldn't be that he used to be Tony Stark and turned into Doom.

Watch logan! 👍🏻
6:54 I also think the MCU is majorly suffering from star power. Idgaf about another overpaid A list celebrity cast just for their face/name. Give me talent and someone who actually fits the role.
Simu Liu!?!? Iman vellani!?!?
Fantastic Four rant was warranted lol, they can’t afford to mess that up. With regards to MCU Doom, while this most certainly won’t be the version we love from the earth-616 comics, I hope they don’t completely abandon the concepts around Doom that make him an interesting character, specifically his connection to mystic parts of the marvel universe such as Mephisto and the like, and his motivations as a character, an endless, selfish pursuit of power to make up for his inability to save his mother. Whether or not he’s Romani or the leader of Latveria (which he hopefully will be) aren’t as important (but are low key fucked up to exclude, Disney/Marvel are all talk and no action on progressive politics as all corpo slop companies are), but I think there is an expectation for the character of Dr. Doom and who he is as a person and his past that people will be looking for. I personally feel an adaptation closer to the current Ultimate Doom (who isn’t even that universe’s Dr. Doom, who may or may not be alive after the Secret War story that was just an excuse to get Miles to Earth-616), where he’s another universe’s Reed Richards made into Doom by the Maker, who is the actual ultimate universe Reed Richards, is probably the worst example of how they could adapt Dr. Doom, imo, because he is only Doom in name and they might as well just do anything else at that rate lol, because they aren’t representing the actual character, just the name. The worst possible thing they could do though is somehow connect MCU Doom’s story to Tony Stark. That’s the last thing we need if we want the MCU to move forward.
it's gonna be S tier MCU slop, probably

Weird takes on established characters is cool and all, but first I want to see them being adapted faithfully. Do the wacky stuff after that.
I would personally want to see doom being set up in the upcoming movies before doomsday. Other dooms, that arent the rdj doom. They can change some of the context of latveria and prime doom, but the thing is that a lot of the modernized heroes of the mcu were done to make less appetizing characters more cool. But doom is kind of already cool, and a lot of people know that, I think.
Fully agree. The weird takes work in the comics because of the decades of not weird comics forming the comparison with the weird stuff. You could probably pull off weird with batman or spiderman by now, but outside of that I don't think any of the heroes have that kind of foundation on screen.
His take especially makes no sense when doom has been poorly adapted twice already
@@johnnybigbones4955 yeah exactly. That's part of why spider verse worked. We all knew what spiderman was about and so they could get weird with it
it makes no sense no sense to complain about that now considering that half the MCU has completely different takes/personalities that are not faithful to the comics.
He may be from a different universe but that’s definitely the MCU doom. Marvel isn’t blowing 80 million dollars just for a variant. That’s main doom and you also know they didn’t spend 80 million on one face to cover it up. Dooms gonna barely wear the mask to show Downey’s face.
80 million will be chump change if the film makes a billion.

It's just movie magic and they straight up treat him as an entirely different person. No Spiderman in tears or looking confused. RDJ just acts completely different, no quips or hint of Tony Stark.

There are so many actors out there in the world and yet they cast RDJ as Doctor Doom?! The fact people are more interested at the ideas of Spider-Man seeing Doctor Doom's face instead of Reed Richard and Doctor Doom interacting just tells me how bad the casting is.
Honestly they accidentally clicked “hard mode” with that casting. They have a lot to prove in order to justify that casting and they probably thought it was an easy way to recover from Kang.
If they were gonna cast an MCU actor, it should’ve been Mads Mikkelsen. He had a pretty forgettable role in the MCU anyways.
I completely agree man it’s bad casting and fails to make doom actually be his own character cuz now he’s just related to iron man over Reed Richards
I think Cosmo’s Doom rant perfectly encapsulates it. It could end up being very interesting and cool, but it could also be a nail in the coffin and a complete fucking mess.
@@georgeandfriendsadventures5073Yeah pity they wasted an actor like him
About the Superior Spider-Man section at 13:48, I just need to say that if you don't think the payoff of that scene with Peter and Norman is PEAK SPIDER-MAN.... Then I don't know what to say
The pause, then the Its you? If thats what you mean ya loce that pannel its peak
@@scribblebozz Yes. The quip alone telling Goblin that the real deal is back is also so good
Yeah that was amazing
Your section in one video about a specific Buffy episode was really good, I would watch a Buffy review from you!
Do you know in which video he talked about the body? :)
@brigitteverhagen766 it was the spiderman fan movie video! I think it's called spiderman lotus?
I didn't expect Marcus to give us his ranking of the BTVS seasons, in this video.
Fuck it I’m saying it again.
HE HAS RETURNED!!!
The first thing he does is push adds in our faces😂😂
HE HAS RISEN BABY GIRL!
The Haters: FUCK!
BOUT TIME HES BEEN GONE FOR FAR TOOOO LONGGGGG
I know you made a joke about us only wanting MCU content, but I’d really enjoy hearing about movies you love, especially if they aren’t as well known or older. Like I loved the Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace video you did a while back.
'Nobody knows who Kang is'
i mean... if you didn't play MvC2 or watch cartoons/read comics you probably didn't give a fuck about Thanos either.
@@TeoReviews I will never forget watching Captain America 2 and the SHOCK spreading through the audience when Bucky was revealed as the Winter Solider.
The Average person watches these movies with zero comic book knowledge
Which is why the MCU built him up to movie fans on its own, for like most of the MCU's run up to Infinity War.
Hell, no one knew who Iron Man was either, but then they built him up over two movies before even doing Avengers, then developed his character more so his ending meant a lot.
Kang? One TV show he is barely in, and one very mid Ant Man movie. That's it.
And that's why he was showing up in the MCU since before the first Avengers movie and building up the narratives of his plans from the very beginning.
The hype was built right. That's all to it. They didn't make black widow fricking kill thanos in its first appearance or some shit. The multiverse theory makes them have a less value than what the actual value of the caharacter is. The one who remains, okay if he's dead then the other version can come. But the one that defeated in antman? Nah. And marvel have this kind of trends where they have to tell us how dangerous kang is instead of showing it. And then just die. The built up of his character was wronged in nany levels
Or Ironman.
marcus pls make a full buffy video. also why did you not include season 7 in your rankings?
I'm actually really liking Agatha. It scratches that Buffy/Charmed itch.
Great point made at 0:00
Nah I skip ads
Yeah, the video was indeed sponsored by Displate.
I think RDJ as Doom will go somewhat like David Tennant as the 14th Doctor. A shot in the arm, a big boost in popularity that will ultimately fade.
Agatha all along has actually been great thus far. Never knew of her character before but am throughly enjoying her as the lead. She has that star power but most people aren't even giving the show a try. That's the downside of hardcore marvel fans.
7:10 gonna push back on that because very few people in the general public truly loved Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America before the MCU started in 08. Making a good, right stand alone movie comes first.
I think his point was more about the actors that carried those films. Alot of the performances from these new shows and films lack charisma, and that isnt the fault of the actors (like Hailee Steinfeld has great stage presence in general) but its just too oversaturated imo. Too many characters, too many actors, no performance is able to stand out like it once did.
FWIW I saw the first two episodes of Agatha All Along premiere in theaters, and it made me actually excited for the first time in *years.* Felt like the good ole days. Call me optimistic but I gotta agree with Marcus on this one, the MCU does seem to be learning the right lessons
If the lesson is "we need RDJ to sell our movies" MCU can use it only so much considering Dwoney is pushing 60.
@@sathrielsatanson666 Bruh I literally said nothing about RDJ
@@WiloPolis03 bruh, you literally said nothing about anything. You mentioned some vague lessons that Marvel is learning and I questioned some of the lesson I see MCU learning.
And Agatha is made by people from Wandavision so I still do not know what is MCU learning truly. Guess I am not learning 😆
@@sathrielsatanson666Ah gotcha. Fair point
I think after Infinity and Endgame we all had this collective feeling like it was pretty much over. It’s startling how correct our feeling was
"You're gonna watch it anyway" is a pretty wild claim considering these movies have been hemorrhaging left and right for half a decade.
Remember how you just said Marvel is desperate? It's certainly not because people are watching their slop anyway.
This isn’t exactly The Eternals we’re talking about here. I promise Avengers Doomsday will break the box office like No Way Home did.
@@HurricaneDDragon I'll take that bet. See you in a couple years.
@Necromancer4267 with the Russo Brothers directing? Bro you about to lose that bet 😂
@@ShaffersWafers they better do something spectacular, none of their films after Endgame were well received
Tbf Doomsday will probably be watched by a lot of people none of the rest will tho besides Spiderman
Dr. Doom reveal would have been better if it happened in movie!! I said what i said.
THIS. the theatre reactions wouldve been fucking crazy
I'm sure someone would have leaked the casting anyway. Some people always want to spoil the fun.
His mask should never come off. Unless you meant via the credits.
That last 30 second crash out was amazing 😂
5:55 this is what I’ve been saying the entire time while people were clowning on it in real time lmao
Spider man was good. Wakanda Forever does seem like hot garbage though
There's a whole 2 good movies and the rest are absolute trash that break the universe, what on Earth are you people talking about
As the only freak in the world who's favorite supervillain is Kang, I can confirm I did not care about Kang in the MCU.
Kang in the MCU is so peak
I liked Kang in Avengers earth's mightiest heroes
Same but calling Majors a violent freak when all the evidence points to him being a victim is interesting
@@MilkMan7300yeah that irritated me a bit
@MilkMan7300 yeah he seemed like narcissistic asshole when he compared himself to MLK, but the only evidence we saw was of him being chased and attacked by his ex and a few people on Twitter saying he was violent after the fact. I love Marcus but he should chill on any and all virtue signaling in the future.
Avengers team lead by Tom Holland, Anthony Mackie, and Sebastian Stan will DEFINITELY get people in seats. They all three have great chemistry, especially Mackie and Stan
HES BACKKKK!!!! He remembered his password
I honestly don’t understand why anyone would complain about a movie before it gets released. Unless it’s some outrageous shit that just sounds bad. (Like ANOTHER fast and furious) then yeah, complain all you want. But a casting, or some other basic changes to a character or story is NOT THAT DEEP.
agatha all along is the best series marvel has made in a while
No it's loki
0:15 aww you described comic book movies!
Facts about fantastic four. After 2 (technically 3) versions that failed to get them, then finally the rights are back at marvel and it STILL FLOPS, marvel is finished. They've gotta understand that if they fuck this shit up, not only is the fantastic four never reaching the mainstream ever again, but the future marvel universe, which started in the 60s with the fantastic four AT THE CENTRE, is finished. I don't care if the other films are good, the concept of an interconnected marvel universe is over
Absolutely insane that they would risk casting a non-Norrin-Radd Silver Surfer in a movie this important.
@@BrettEPierce ehhhh not necessarily; I love Norrin Radd, and would kill for a solo series or movie kinda like the Dan Slott run, however, I'm pretty sure its confirmed this fantastic four is an elseworld, so I assume Norrin Radd exists in the main universe OR will be in the main universe after Secret Wars
I would love to hear your thoughts on Agatha All Along because I just finished it a few days ago and found it surprisingly entertaining, and sometimes even kinda good? Like, most of it is whatever but there's a particular episode that's really good and about halfway through it goes off the rails in a way I generally liked, even though the execution suffered sometimes. Anyways, I think it did a lot right as a show that specifically addressed concerns about its relevance to the greater universe, and it's the first MCU thing in a while that's made me excited about the universe overall again.
17:00 hell, James Gunn has developed his DCU (DC UNIVERSE) on the way when Superman (2025) will come out.... I have high hopes and superpower enough Super James Gunn, and so do the other DCU films in the mid-2020s.
Aren't there 7 seasons of Buffy? Also looking forward to that Halloween video 👻🦇
Singling out Agatha is crazy like it wasn’t a solid show lol
I agree so much with Kang. Jonathan Majors' exit was a blessing in disguise. I never felt the same gravitas as Thanos at all when I saw a Kang variant appear. Heck, I was lamenting that we were stuck with him over Dr. Doom or Galactus.
horrid take, majors was loved for his performance and commitment
@@CDrizzleTheBoss They weren't saying Majors sucked, they were saying Kang just didn't feel very good as a main antagonist
Kang in Quantumania is laughable, and not just because he gets owned by stampeding ants. It's because he fails so hard at being intimidating. He's just cheesy.
Compare his performance with Ralph Fiennes as Voldemort in The Goblet of Fire. They're both so over the top, it's hilarious.
The MCU Variety Hour is here again!
I feel ya on wanting to see how a crazy premise works out. Sometimes it doesn't work, but you will ALWAYS have something to talk about
4:24 I grew up on marvel animated movies and TV. Kang was my favorite avengers villain! It was tied between him and Ultron. Apparently the MCU fucked them both over.😤
I feel like, if 2023 made it okay to dislike the MCU, then 2024 made it cool to dislike it. It's so hard to believe that 2019 was just five years ago...
