Weekend Q&A - June 1, 2019

Barring any rights issues between Sony and Marvel Studios at his current stage of his superhero career do you think Spider-Man could be the leader of The Avengers? Do you think a story aspect of “Spider-Man: Far From Home” will be Spidey questioning if he is or is not for a lack of a better and no pun intended “worthy” of leading The Avengers?

In your head canon, why do you think The Kree Supreme Intelligence didn’t assist or support Ronan in his beef with the Xandar in “Guardians of The Galaxy?”

5:30 Woo S! Kim

Would Storm and Wolverine be your top picks for characters that would appear on both X-Men and Avengers films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe Sean and do you have other characters that you can see on both rosters?

With the news of Zemo coming back in Falcon and Winter Soldier, I had forgotten that Batroc The Leaper didn’t die, he was captured. Would you like to see Batroc return on a Disney Plus and or a Thunderbolts film?

Hey Sean. I've been listening to the podcast now for a few months and finally ponied up to support Marvel Studios News on Patreon. I wanted to go ahead and get my thank-you's out of the way and let you know how much I appreciate your and Paul's hard work and MCU insights. Keep up the great work!

I just finished up Neil Gaiman's run of Eternals, so I figured I'd keep my question within that realm. I was wondering what you'd like to see story-wise from that film. Granted, I haven't delved too deep into either Kirby's initial run or Gillis's in the 80's, so I'm curious how you think the MCU will introduce these characters to both relative newcomers to the series and the completely unfamiliar. Do you expect the film to be impacted by the events of Endgame, or do you anticipate this being set in a different time period? I'm most curious about if and how they'll tie Thanos into the story.

Hi Sean! I was watching the first Ironman today and got hung up on a scene so much that I had to pause it and contemplate. Pepper was so angry with Tony when she discovered his “secret identity” that she threatened to quit. After Tony made a point that he was finally doing something good, she said, “you’re all I’ve got too, ya know”. For a second I perceived that she had clearly used a manipulative tactic to get what she wanted, to have some sort of control. To be honest I still feel that 2008 pepper Potts had an agenda at this point that wasn’t close to sincere. As I got to thinking about it, it occurred to me that pepper from 2008 is so much different from what we have now. I believe that 2008 pep would have told current Tony to put his time travel theory in a lock box and bury it at the bottom of the lake. The point I’m making is that the MCU has brought forth the story arc of every single character, even minor characters, in the MCU. I started thinking back to minor characters that hold this same truth. Nearly every character has followed an arc that leads them to the best person they can be for the “End Game”. The scale of this is incredible and makes rewatching these characters a different journey every time! I would love to hear other examples of character arcs completed in this amazing saga from you or the patrons. Thank you for your patience with my ramblings. I know 2008 pepper would have checked out by now. Thankfully I’ve been “Rescued”.

Hey Sean, my question for you this time is, What are you hoping to see from D23? Everyone I've been talking to says Marvel is showing something, and we know they should be announcing something, but what do you personally want to see from D23? And out of all the titles that are coming out and are scheduled for a release, which ones are you most excited for?

Do you think they will use The Ultimates as the new avengers team from here on out and just leave the avengers name alone?? I know it sounds weird but I thought I would ask.

35:03 Michael Weaselboy

When do you think we will see Antman 3??? And who should be the villain??

37:48 Chad Ginter

Listening to episode 127 and talking about Namor, and had a thought. Namor would obviously be upset 50% or his people disappeared and would be happy their back. However, having five years of cleaner waters could have convinced him that Atlantis finally needs to do something about the surface? Leading to a conflict with Wakanda?

Hey Sean and Friends, hope everyone had a great week! so if the soul stone exchange is everlasting, does that mean that  Gamora is the first person to have ever been sacrificed for it? What do you think the rules are if someone other than the person who receives it on Vormir, comes to possess the stone? Do they get to keep it, or does it just kind of vanish and go back into the clouds, or wherever it was, on Vormir? The Red skull did say it has a certain wisdom, so do you think it would know if a person who eventually comes to possess it didn’t have to make the necessary sacrifice and allow that person to keep it?

46:42 Giuseppe Vicaretti

My next question for you Sean is, a hope of mine. We know that Thor will be with the Guardians in either Thors next Movie or the next Guardians movie, or if were lucky, both. My question is do you want to see Marvel do more team ups in their solo movies? Maybe Black Panther with Doctor Strange, or maybe later on Doctor Strange with the Fantastic Four. Is this something you would like to see or should they just keep the hero's in their own movies and have it build up to something big, similar to how we saw things in the first 3 phases?
