Here There Be X-Men
Alright, I’m fully on board with these Avengers: Doomsday teasers. They’re short and sweet and the new one is pretty cool. It’s the X-Men! The classic Fox X-Men!
Personally, I’m over the Fox X-Men. I’m ready for Marvel to reboot that franchise into their own MCU characters. But we’re here anyway, and I’m probably going to have fun with it, so who am I to stop them? There’s no denying that Ian McKellen is the best there is, so why not let him and his buddy Patrick Stewart have another go? And that Cyclops badassery is choice.
Avengers Doomsday is now less than a year away, next December.

Now We’ve Got a Thor-Based Teaser for Avengers: Doomsday
Alright, I see what’s happening here. We got a Captain America teaser trailer for Avengers: Doomsday last week. Now we’ve got one for Thor. Check it out. It’s brief and doesn’t spoil anything…other than Thor being in Avengers: Doomsday.
So both trailers end with XXXX will return in Avengers: Doomsday, playing on that familiar coda from a lot of Marvel movies that declared so-and-so character would return. So perhaps we’re going to get a whole series of these short teasers? Teasing a bunch of characters showing up? Now that I can get behind! I was very lukewarm about the Cap trailer last week, and this Thor one doesn’t build much hype for the movie. But a series of ‘Will Return’ trailers could be pretty fun!
Avengers: Doomsday comes to theaters a year from now on Dec. 18.

For Christmas This Year, an Underwhelming Avengers: Doomsday Teaser
I’m still a very big Marvel Studios and MCU guy. I’ve seen it all and loved 99% of it, even all this post-Endgame stuff that the internet loves to hate. So I’m very much looking forward to Avengers: Doomsday a year from now. But hooboy, this first teaser trailer is a stinker.
Don’t watch if you don’t want any spoilers.
Basically, all this teaser trailer does is reveal one specific character who will be appearing in the movie. And I don’t really care. We know the movie is gonna feature everybody — that’s half the point of the movie. But there could have been so much else to see in a proper first teaser. Not even a better glimpse of Doctor Doom? Nothing? Just that one guy?
What a bummer for this holiday season.
Anyway, this is my last post until next week because I’ll be off on an extended family Christmas weekend! Merry Christmas everybody, and Happy Holidays!

First Trailer for Marvel Zombies Cartoon!
I will probably always and forever be unapologetically Marvel. It’s in my blood. It’s in my soul. I don’t think they went downhill after Endgame and I’ve enjoyed everything they’ve put out (except for most of Secret Invasion). Eyes of Wakanda was great! And now here comes Marvel Zombies!
Looks like a fun, crazy action show in which a couple of Marvel heroes are thrown up against a zombie apocalypse and the zombie Avengers. It’s spun off a What If episode of the same premise, and that’s perfectly fine by me.
Marvel Zombies is coming to Disney+ on Sept. 24. I believe all four episodes will drop at once.

6 Things I Want to See in Avengers: Doomsday
We’ve got two new Avengers movies coming up starting late next year, so we’re a ways off. But I was giving Doomsday some thought the other day and realized I’d never done a List of Six on what I hope to see in the movie. I used to do these a lot for Marvel films. So here we are for my own personal hopes and dreams for Avengers: Doomsday in late 2026.
I’m still a major Marvel fan. Say what you will about me, but I’m still loving pretty much everything Marvel is putting out. I cannot fathom how anyone can say the Marvel products are “garbage”. They’re maybe not all amazing and phenomenal, but the films and TV shows are still well-made and very entertaining. I can’t wait to rewatch Thunderbolts* when it comes to Disney+, and Fantastic Four: First Steps is expected to be a highlight of the rest of my year.
So can Marvel make themselves a billion dollar movie-maker again with Doomsday and then Secret Wars? I’m more than willing to find out!
