The various movies obviously deserve their own threads once things actually start moving on them, but it seems like we should have a place just for general discussion about what they're planning. So here ya go. [Reply]
Danny Elfman Confirms He's Scoring The Music Of Doctor Strange 2
In a wide-ranging interview with Inverse about his newest single "Love in the Time of Covid," a dark rock song about love, lust, and lack thereof in a year of lockdowns, Elfman confirmed he is scoring the 2022 movie Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness with director Sam Raimi.
"I am starting to do bits of pre-work for Doctor Strange 2 that Sam Raimi's directing," Elfman tells Inverse. "Even though I don't start it for some months, there's bits of recorded music they need for the sets."
Naturally, Elfman couldn't reveal too much about the new Marvel Studios movie slated for release on March 25, 2022. But the film will mark a reunion between Elfman and Raimi, who first worked together on the 1990 superhero noir Darkman followed by Spider-Man in 2002 and Spider-Man 2 in 2004. Disagreements between Elfman and Raimi led to the musician exiting the franchise for 2007's Spider-Man 3. In the years since, the two mended fences and collaborated once more for the 2011 Disney fantasy film Oz the Great and Powerful.
Elfman also scored the movies Batman (1989), The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993), Mission: Impossible (1995), Men in Black (1997), and Dumbo (2019), and Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015). He is known for his frequent collaborations with directors like Raimi, Tim Burton, and Gus Van Sant. Prior to his acclaimed film work, Elfman was the singer-songwriter of the new wave band Oingo Boingo. [Reply]
All the rights for the various Netflix Defenders series have reverted back to Disney, so (as we already know with Charlie Cox) we can expect to see some of them starting to show up in the MCU. Already rumors that Ritter (and cox) may show up in some capacity on She-Hulk. Would not be surprised at all to see Bernthal return and an effort to take the Punisher logo back from white supremacists. Some discussion that the Netflix shows may directly continue on hulu (as it becomes the more adult branch of disney+ in the us), so maybe some more iron Fist or Luke Cage or Colleen Wing or Misty Knight, and they'd be able to stay more mature than the rest of the mcu (minus deadpool...).

Starting to really tease some Spider Man 3 info now. Looks like Doctor Strange is definitely involved from the images they released. 3 different titles probably a tease for the 3 different Spider Man's. [Reply]
As I mentioned in the WandaVision thread, I've been watching all of the Marvel movies in groups the past few weeks such as Captain America 1, 2 & 3, Ant-Man 1 & 2, Spider-Man 1 & 2, Guardians 1 & 2 and so on.
But wow, are Thor 1 & 2 just awful or what? I mean just how stupid is Asgard and its people?
They have amazing technology that enables them to travel anywhere in the Universe yet their warriors carry swords?
They have a King, which is dumb in an of itself but even worse yet, peasants? Why does Asgard have peasants? They have amazing technology and their world should be wealthy AF yet people willingly choose to live in filth and tattered clothing when they can just up and leave their world for a better life elsewhere?
I love the character of Thor but good grief, those are some really, really dumb movies. [Reply]
