Vanity Fair interviewed Elizabeth Olsen as part of her promotional tour for "Love & Death" on HBO Max: I found this commentary at 4:45 interesting: OLSEN: It's a similar arc in Multiverse of Madness that it is in "WandaVision". There could be parallel stories being told there of dealing with...

Considering Phases 4-6 are now labeled "The Multiverse Saga", and what makes her unique is the ability to travel between universes, I think we'll definitely be seeing more of her at least through "Secret Wars". From those interviews, it sounds like she hasn't shot anything for any of the other...

Watched it tonight while I was doing some house cleaning. Some observations: This one is hosted by Bruce Campbell, playing a version of himself that is a cross between Robert Osborne introducing movies on TCM and Jonathan Frakes on "Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction". One thing that was very clear...

Anybody know when the Assembled documentary for this movie will be available? I think I might enjoy that more than the movie itself. Watched the "IMAX Enhanced" version on Disney+ tonight; I'd only seen the scope version before, on a regular screen in theaters. Presentation was excellent; the...

If there are truly infinite universes for every possible branching off point, then by definition there are infinite universes where Reed Richards looks like John Krasinski, infinite universes where Reed Richards does not look like John Krasinski, and infinite universes with no Reed Richards at all.

I think part of that is because the show wasn't done yet for a good chunk of this movie's production. Elizabeth Olsen went right into shooting this from shooting "WandaVision", and the post-production on "WandaVision" took longer than usual because of COVID. So by the time they had a finished...

I'm not going to use spoiler tags, and I'm going to take quotes from outside spoiler tags. Don't read this post any further until you've seen the movie! I had planned on seeing it in IMAX 2D, but the 7 PM IMAX showtime was sold out so I just caught a regular 2D showing. I didn't feel like I...

Latest TV spot from Marvel's official YouTube channel confirms the two spoilers from my previous post: If you want to go into this movie fresh, I would recommend avoiding all trailers and TV spots for the next week.

This 30-second TV spot hasn't been posted on the official Marvel Entertainment YouTube channel yet, so I suppose it could be a fan manipulation: But assuming it's real, two major reveals:

Hard to believe it's hitting theaters two weeks from Friday, after all of the delays.

Two and a half hours isn't that bad. The Batman was three hours, and that was pushing it a bit.

^ I love him as but I think it would be best for all involved if they pretended that never existed at all.

Some screenshots I took from the trailer, and my thoughts as to what the hell they might be: I agree. It felt like a cheat, and the payoff was just a really dumb, sophomoric joke. Part that is that I'm just a really big fan of Evan Peters's take on Quicksilver. But I also liked the idea of...

With Kate Bishop's Hawkeye in "Hawkeye", the aged up Cassie Lang in Ant-Man 3, Wiccan and Speed in "WandaVision", and Kid Loki in "Loki" they sure are assembling a lot of the Young Avengers in Phase Four.

Based on that post-credits footage at the end of Spider-Man: No Way Home: Raimi's put together some strong creatives for this, too: the cinematographer of Logan, the editor of The Other Side of the Wind, the composer of Batman. Crazy that in a COVID-free world we would have seen this movie...

Even though we're still a year out from it's new release date, I'm wondering if we'll get a teaser for this at the end of Friday's "WandaVision" finale, given that Wanda's story continues directly into this. They've been filming since November, albeit with interruptions resulting from COVID-19...

Casting news(?)

Given how heavily this one ties into "WandaVision" and the third Spider-Man, it makes sense that the director would have a little less autonomy than in some of the other pictures that aren't doing the same kind of heavy lifting for the franchise as a whole. If he wasn't interested in making the...

'Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness': Sequel Introduces America Chavez, Sam Raimi Directing Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange), Benedict Wong (Wong), Rachel McAdams (Christine Palmer), and Chiwetel Ejiofor (Mordo) are all confirmed as returning, as well as the previously announced...

I wouldn't be surprised if this one jumps ahead in line a bit. "WandaVision" supposedly leads directly into this movie, and Marvel is sticking with a December 2020 launch for that show. I doubt they'll want two full years to go by before this movie picks up that thread. Definitely after Black...

I'm willing to give Marvel the benefit of the doubt. I was convinced that the first Ant-Man was going to be a disaster when Edgar Wright pulled out on the eve of shooting and the script was pieced together as they went along. And that movie turned out pretty great.

I believe Marvel Studios is competent enough to learn from Sony's mistakes. :)

The interesting thing about Raimi is it would seem at first glance to point to the movie leaning more into the horror genre, rather than less. Certainly, he's not a choice Feige would make if he's just looking for someone to deliver the company product on time and on budget. Also, unlike Pepper...

I loved his episodes of "Game of Thrones", but the two feature films of his I've seen haven't impressed me. The Dark World is one of my least favorite MCU movies, but in a way I'm grateful for it. I don't think we would have gotten Thor: Ragnarok if The Dark World hadn't fizzled.

I think it's easy to underestimate the contributions of Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely to the Infinity Saga, too. They wrote seven of the films, and their collaborations with the Russos are among the best so far.

I agree about Gunn, Coogler, and Waititi. But the Russo brothers come from television. They know how to be team players. They're excellent at what they do, but they thrive in a collaborative environment like Marvel Studios. I think it's very likely that if they hadn't been hired, we would still...

Scott Derrickson departs due to "creative differences". He will remain credited as an executive producer. The first Doctor Strange was among my least favorite of the MCU movies, so I'm not heartbroken about this. But I hope he's not leaving because Marvel wanted to play it safer.

The film will star Benedict Cumberbatch and Elizabeth Olsen and serve as a direct sequel to the "WandaVision" series on Disney+. Scott Derrickson will return as director. They're shooting for "gothic horror" as the genre for the sequel.
