I was unexpectedly giddy over the Patch cameo, myself. Also, a LOT more TVA than I expected, to the point I was a bit disappointed they didn’t reuse more of the amazing production design from the Loki series.

Entertainment Earth has a tease up for Tuesday, the 13th, possibly indicating reveals for Deadpool and Wolverine Legends figures.

It was wild to me how big a difference that makes - watching the trailer the first time, it took a few beats before the TVA even clicked for me since they didn't look "right".

It would be very Deadpool for them to actually mimic the show's look while in the TVA and for him to notice and remark on it. But they also might not want to get too deep into that.

As much as I enjoyed Loki, and most of the MCU "shows" in general, I think it's in the best interest of the MCU right now to focus on the "cinematitc" part of the equation. It's when Disney+ (a perennial money-loser) launched and the MCU broke up its story-telling from a single line of films into a lot of different subscription-locked shows that it seemed to begin this downward trend of popularity. Maybe Agents of SHIELD had the right idea about keeping themselves kind of closed off from the films, as much as some of us complained about it at the time.

It's true there are also some other factors contributing, as well (people just seeming to be miserable bastards coming out of COVID, etc), but I don't think breaking everything up helped.

I'm really hoping this film gets more positive sentiment about the MCU going again, 'cuz it's really tiring seeing all the negative crap everywhere.

Honestly I've liked a lot of what the MCU does still. The only thing i've seen that I thought was pretty flawed was Thor: Love and Thunder (not complete garbage but deeply flawed in tone and balance).

Wandavision, Loki, She-Hulk and Ms Marvel were all absolutely wonderful.

There are MCU things that didn't interest me (Black Widow, Echo) but I just didn't watch them and continued on fine with the next thing that looked cool.

I don't think I would trade Wandavision, Loki or Ms Marvel for films. I just think it's the "in" thing right now for certain groups to hate on Disney and Marvel whatever they do.

-ZacWilliam, hopefully that's a fad that passes.

Oh man! I hate Disney with the passion of a thousand ruined franchises, but I have got to see this. If Hugh wants to do this part until he's got one foot in the grave and is totally physically unable to do this part, I am so here for it.

I trusted them to do a third and it's looking like that faith has paid off. This looks excellent. Just absolutely perfect.

If nothing else, this looks to be a better send off to the old Fox X-Men series than what they got with Dark Phoenix and New Mutants.

I thought New Mutants was okay. They took a few liberties that I kinda wish they hadn't. But it wasn't the worst thing ever. Dark Phoenix was just a hot mess. I think Logan was probably the best one they could've used for a send off.

TBF neither of those were planned to be send-offs anyway. It just worked out that way due to low returns and Fox Movie studios being bought out.

I still consider Days of Future Past being the true send-off for Fox's X-Men universe. Everyone got the happy ending they deserve.

I still think Logan was its own thing, a one-off movie timeline.

So thanks to this thread, I had a Logan/Deadpool/Deadpool 2 kinda week. I gotta say, in Deadpool 2, I truly forgot just how long his "death scene" was.

So there seems to be several X-Men threads in here. Since this is one I've already interacted with and it's mainly about Wolverine, I guess I'll put this question here.

I absolutely remember a Toy Biz toy Wolverine that let you retract the claws into the hands instead of having to switch out hands or (even worse) only being able to have the claws out. Now I understand that this little feature may come at the sacrifice of wrist movement, but I think it might be worth it to be able to extend and retract Wolverines claws on a toy. Why, if they were able to do this back in the 90's, do toy makers refuse to make a Wolverine toy that can do it now?
