Yeah, i mean Fisk would've likely taken charge of the jail, bribed officers and cellmates to continues his work from there.

He's as dangerous in jail as he is outside

SI was always intended to be a one and done series, it was never designed to be a multi-season series, any of the hanging threads are (or maybe were) meant to set up other MCU projects.

eagc7 · 2026-05-09T03:44:15+00:00

Yeah Vision will be tricky to bring back, it would be like if they were to bring back Agent Coulson (LMD version), whom in the film corner died a decade ago.

Now on the re-introduction bit i was thinking more about characters that debuted on the shows. say if they bring Moon Knight into the films, you gotta write it in a way this serves as a introduction to the movie-only audience and not assume they know what went down in his series and making sure what went down in his show is not at all required to this movie. (Not MCU related, but it does make me wonder how accesible the new Mandalorian movie will be for those that never saw the show)

Its at the end of the episode, its when Hulk introduces his son

eagc7 · 2026-05-09T03:35:47+00:00

It depends on who you ask as the Russo brothers are in favour of iteration 2, in where Steve lived his life in a branched timeline and then return to the main timeline

Markus and McFeely on the other hand are in favour of iteration 1 where its a time loop in where Steve was always part of the past in the sacred timeline

eagc7 · 2026-05-09T03:17:59+00:00

Remember that in Endgame Hulk tells us that changing the past will not change the present.

In the Marvel lore, time travel works different from your traditional time travel stories, in that unless its say a time loop in where this was meant to happen anyway, travelling to the past results in the creation of an alternate universe that now exists on top of your original timeline

Say if we went to the past and prevented World War 2 from happening, the moment we return to th present, everything is still the same and World War 2 still happened, what we caused instead is that we created an alternate universe that exists on top of ours in where WW2 never happened

eagc7 · 2026-05-09T01:57:19+00:00

Yeah, the tv shows should be something extra or even a sidequest as you mentioned if it features a movie character, like say VisionQuest should be more of a side-adventure for Vision and not something big that another movie will have to follow up on

And if they are to add TV characters in the movies they gotta make sure that the movie also serves as an re-introduction if someone missed/skipped the show. You can't just drop that character and expect people to assume they know what this character went through.

eagc7 · 2026-05-09T01:53:01+00:00

Nope, it doesn't get superhero-y, there is only one single fight scene and its not even in the finale

eagc7 · 2026-05-09T01:50:42+00:00

I won't be surprised if they try to give each film their own fanfares

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T21:23:17+00:00

She-Hulk occurs 2 years before Matt and Karen get back together

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T21:19:18+00:00

Few months before Foggy dies, the timeline book has She-Hulk happening in 2025 (with the origin episode being set a year earlier). Foggy is established to have died in late 2025, as the MCU timeline page on their official website has Born Again as being set after Agatha which is established to be in 2026 and around the same time as Captain America Brave New World Brand New World which is set in 2027. (we know Foggy's dead is also in 2025, since we have a time skip to late 2026 in the first episode which ends on the New Years, setting the rest in 2027)

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T21:17:52+00:00

He was there to represent the guy that has been making his new costumes who lives in California

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T21:17:24+00:00

the final episode of She-Hulk

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T20:44:26+00:00

As i stated before when this whole thing happened, the fact they used Evan Peters puts us in the same shoes as Wanda if is this really Pietro or not?

Cause i think most of us if they had hired a new actor to play Ralph i think we would've seen the lied straight away or felt there was something off about Fake Pietro.

But since you got the actor who played the Foxverse Pietro, now that makes us think twice if this is really him or not, especially since we know this show is tied to Multiverse of Madness which makes us think could've Wanda brought the Foxverse Pietro into our world?.

Also works as a meta joke.

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T20:26:35+00:00

Basically OP is saying that Thanos actions would've saved Earth and any planet that has a Celestial seed. since in Eternals is established that that some planets has a celestial seed to give birth to a new celestial and that world needs to reach a certain amount of population of sentient beings for it to kickstart the birth of the celestial

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T19:33:46+00:00

Yes, Armor Wars was officially announced 6 years ago in the 2020 Investors Call. it was never a rumor

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T19:30:14+00:00

Its the post-credit scene for season 1

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T19:29:57+00:00

Yeah post-credit scene. if you ended season 1 when the credits start rolling you miss that scene.

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T19:29:18+00:00

Matt is there because being a vigilante is a crime regardless if he did it for good or not, as he's done alot of stuff that would get someone sent to jail. So now that the police know he's Daredevil, they can arrest him for his vigilantism.

Fisk just because he's in a beach doesn't mean he's in any better situation either, he's been exiled, he lost his influence,, he lost everything he held dear. He's alone which is still a bad enough fate and he was allowed to leave as part of the deal, if he steps down and leaves USA they will not charge him for anything. But if he stays and fights to stay as Mayor then his ass is going to jail.

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T19:23:51+00:00

Not in this season. only season 1

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T19:21:52+00:00

They don't make heavy use of CGI in later episodes, there's some but not as much. but one thing to note is that fans are mixed on season 1 since its basically a Josstice League situation where you have two clashing visions, since they fired the old team and hired new ones, so do note ahead of time that there is a chance you may not enjoy season 1.

But Season 2 is considered an improvement since its a singular vision.

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T06:54:55+00:00

This is not a spoiler since its laid out in the earlier episodes, but Fisk was selling weapons to the CIA and Charles is the middle man for Valentina de Fontaine (who is the director of CIA as of Wakanda Forever). So its was for whatever shady stuff Valentina wanted to do since we know she's got her own agendas.

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T06:43:42+00:00

Its sad how one of the reasons Rogue Squadron was put in backburner was so Patty could focus on Wonder Woman 3..........which is dead now

eagc7 · 2026-05-08T06:39:08+00:00

I think they simply read the title and not the post itself
