Life has been busy, so I got behind on a few things, including trailers. I recently got a chance to catch up on several of them, so I thought I’d give a run through of what I saw and my reactions. There’s some great looking stuff coming up.
Marvel has a lot of interesting characters in their ever-expanding universe. One area they’ve been fairly lacking in is Native representation, although they’re working on it. Among their few Native characters is Echo, Maya Lopez. The MCU version turned up during the Hawkeye series, and now she’s off on her own adventure.
Well, now think about a movie that took 12 years to finish because director Richard Linklater wanted to make a movie about growing up and decided it would be interesting to film it using the same actors for all stages of the story. That’s Boyhood (2014). It’s not just a coming-of-age story—it literally grows up…
Loki, Mobius, and the rest have a lot of unexpected things to deal with in “Science Fiction.”
Some have been tragic, some dramatic, and a few have been more on the humorous side. “What If Happy Hogan Saved Christmas?” is definitely one of those. There’s all kinds of action and a few nods to assorted Christmas stories as we see an Avengers Christmas party like no other.
This version of events shows a different, earlier forming version of the Avengers, although it gets my vote for Least Accurately Titled Episode, at least so far. Now we delve into “What If Peter Quinn Attacked Earth’s Mightiest Heroes?”
When Disney+ starting making shows set in the MCU, they included an animated version of What If, which featured many of the stars of the movies coming back to reprise their roles. It was so successful, it became the second Marvel series on Disney+ to get more than one season, just behind Loki. Returned for a new series of could-have-been tales, What If started off with an out of this world story.
The TVA has a new status quo to adapt to, individual present and former members get a lot of unexpected revelations, and there are a lot of startling events for all concerned. The Sacred Timeline is indeed a multiverse now, as we see when we get a look in “The Heart of the TVA.”
Now, in his own series, he’s actually fighting for something larger than himself, his own glory, or personal power. Loki and Mobius are on a desperate quest to save time, and everything else, requiring a journey to “1893.”
Now, the further misadventures of Loki and the TVA continue in “Breaking Brad.”
