I knew they'd talk about Taika's film. No way they were gonna mention Rian. Also a Patty Jenkins SW film!

Here's the full slate announced:

Wait. Disney got Children of Blood and Bone?

*sigh* my interest in that just plummeted.

Alien series is the only new thing I’m interested in.
 
I have seen nothing bad from the trailers...Disney seems to be killing it right now.

I know not everyone here will like everything but who cares not everything is made for you...its made for a wide enough audience that most people will enjoy these shows
 
Ya know they may be a faceless evil corporation, but Turning Red, Encanto, and all those series look pretty good.
 
So there's essentially going to be weekly new MCU content from mid-January until the fall. Ambitious.

It's extremely bold to have so much Marvel content to be canonized and prime for Disney+, it'll be a crucial point of the service. And the fact that they're having event stories like Secret Invasion; which could easily be an Avengers level story to tackle..

It's bold. If anything, seeing Ironheart, Hawkeye, Ms. Marvel, Monica Rambeau, and America Chavez..kind of gives a good vibe to what to expect going forward; if Young Avengers is inbound.
 
What If? looks way better than I was expecting when they originally announced it and now that we have a multiverse going on, the show actually seems to be very timely for Marvel.

This kind of makes me uneasy, frankly. I've never heard anything particularly good about that title (I know it has passionate fans, but more for what it represents than for its incredible storylines, as far as I can tell), and I don't necessarily want a roster of such teen-skewing characters to start driving the MCU.

But it's all in the execution, of course. If I want something that skews older, I'm sure BLADE and MOON KNIGHT will supply that.

Trust Feige to do them correctly.

I have a feeling the MCU Doctor Doom -- when he finally arrives -- will be glorious.
 
Is there going to be anything about the parks before I head to bed?
Highly doubtful. They want Wall Street to be happy, they can't announce major investment into the parks during COVID.

There's so many characters in the MCU that we could have a group of 5 to 6 teens and they still would be in the vast minority among all the characters.

The first Dare Devil movie sucked to and the Netflix series was amazing

I have faith Disney will nail it....name one main character they didn't get right by the end? People love the Guardians of the Galaxy, no one cared about them before this.
