@ryannorth.ca I loved your interview with Robby on Friends From Work. Have there been any other instances like your visit to the FF set where you’ve had an actor or other creator adapting something you’ve worked on ask for your input/opinion? Must be pretty cool to see that influence on screen!

I see several big aggregators jumping on news that Marvel Studios has apparently greenlit a follow-up to WEREWOLF BY NIGHT, and my question is: why? The Deadline article referenced clearly quotes Giacchino as saying he will direct something next for *Warner Bros*, not Marvel.

I like the idea of Loki holding on, literally by the threads, of every variation of the Multiverse and that being the reason for Doctor Doom wanting to save as much of every universe as he can and create a new universe, which he will protect as God Emperor Doom.
Heroes might even agree with him...

I've reached the part of the Multiverse Saga where our FFW Watch Order has its first major deviation from most watch orders. Loki S1 --> Quantumania --> Loki S2. I finished Loki S1 last night and began Quantumania. A couple thoughts in the next post... (1/3)

My guess (and it is only a guess) is that the 'Avengers: Doomsday' trailer is released online the day BEFORE 'Avatar: Fire & Ash' hits theaters.
12/18, which is also exactly one year before Doomsday.

Collider adds a little legitimacy to what we've all been speculating for a little while now. The first teaser for Avengers: Doomsday will debut ahead of Avatar: Fire & Ash.

I don't understand the hate that Thor: Love & Thunder gets. Is it as good as Ragnarok? Not even close. But is it the 2nd-best Thor movie? By a country mile, in my opinion. Maybe that's just the Girl Dad in me, but the Shadow Realm stuff alone is better than anything in the first two movies.

One of the joys of any Marvel rewatch (at least for me) is all of the small easter eggs and connective tissue that everyone forgot about, but remind us that these movies and shows all take place in the same universe. (1/3)

I finished #MoonKnight on my rewatch journey last night. I know the finale was divisive for many folks, but I loved it. Episode 4, though, was my favorite, and when I knew @justinhbenson.bsky.social and @aaronmoorhead.bsky.social
should be directing as many Marvel properties as possible.

I started my Multiverse Saga rewatch last week. It's my first opportunity to test out the new watch order that Robby and I have been brainstorming. So far I've watched:
WandaVision
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier
I really like starting with these two projects for a couple of reasons (1/2)

I finished my Infinity Saga rewatch last week with Infinity War and Endgame. What an amazing accomplishment those two movies are. They stand up 6+ years later, too.
Recreating that for Doomsday/Secret Wars is a herculean task, but if anyone can pull it off, it is the Russo Bros.
