With... Robert Downey Jr. as Victor Von Doom?

Hm. This lends credence to the rumors that the Fantastic Four in the new Fantastic Four movie don't JUST come to the present from the 1960s... but also another universe. A universe now, apparently, where Victor Von Doom looks like Tony Stark.

They describe it as a retro futuristic version of the 60s.

... So is it like how Quicksilver and Thanos look like Kraven and Cable?

I heard Doom might keep his helmet on all the time, as in, Robert Downy Jr doesn't want to distract the audience with his appearance and he might even go for a non-Tony voice.

My only problem with woke Disney being behind this, is that if they're going for a 'they came from the 60's to modern day' theme, they just won't help but have women put that gosh darned misogynistic Reed Richards in his place.

This is immediately so much more interesting to me than whatever the Kang film could have been. What a cool idea.

*RaphaelinSTL* · 07-27-2024, 10:21 PM

I haven't cared about Marvel movies in years, but getting the right Dr. Doom could've been enough to pull me. Nope. I'm still out, lol.

Yeah this sounds like it sucks. Guess we’ll never get a quintessential FF movie. Oh well.

Well, that's not untrue. Though I hope there is still SOME manner of a payoff of the Kang stuff.

*XERO* · 07-28-2024, 12:31 AM

I was enjoying the Kang stuff, too, so I hope there's some kind of payoff, as well.

*ranger_scout* · 12-09-2024, 05:44 PM

Chris Evans is coming back too.

*Andrew NDB* · 12-09-2024, 05:54 PM

Yeah, I bet there's some kind of "throwaway" to very quickly wrap up the Kang stuff at the beginning of the movie. It surely couldn't just be nothing, could it?

*ToTheNines* · 12-09-2024, 06:30 PM

This is so lame. Endgame was such a great ending, don’t ruin it.

It’s very sad and unfortunate what happened to Boseman, but could they really not something around other characters? Obviously trying to bank on Brie was foolish, but come on.

*ZariusTwo* · 12-10-2024, 06:50 AM

I think all the original Avengers (possibly sans Scarlett) will be back, but as villains for the new generation to defeat, so we'll get "evil white guy" Steve being punched out by the 'worthy' Sam Wilson Cap wielding Thor's hammer (like in the Secret Empire comic)

God damn it. You’re 100 percent right, aren’t you?

*Andrew NDB* · 12-10-2024, 09:42 PM

Yeah, he'll be Captain Hydra like from a few years ago in the comics.

*Andrew NDB* · 03-01-2025, 03:19 PM

There is no Young Avengers stuff. If they were planning it at all it died during Feige's culling of everything.

*Coola Yagami* · 03-27-2025, 06:27 AM

Hmmm good point. I didn't see Brie Larson's name anywhere.

*Autbot_Benz* · 03-27-2025, 10:02 AM

I’m just excited for Alan Cumming’s Nightcrawler to be back after all these years

There's a lot of people's names that aren't there but obviously will be in the movie.

It was fairly criminal he wasn't in X3 after all that big intro in X2. Or even Days of Future Past. But you know what is just plain days past? The Fox-Men. This is 20 years too late and who cares now, and where's the real MCU X-Men?

*Andrew NDB* · 03-27-2025, 01:55 PM

I really hope I'm wrong, but I'm still feeling like all of this sudden "love" for the Fox-Men is just to give audiences and X-Men fans something resembling the real X-Men before we get the actual super-DEIed/LGBBQed MCU version that is sure to piss off large swaths of the fandom. And also so that Marvel and Feige can still say, "You don't like the MCU X-Men? Don't worry! The Fox-Men are still out there, too, in the multiverse!"
