Disney+ will launch near the end of 2019. They have TV shows planned, including one for Loki starring Tom Hiddleston.
The 90's cartoon will also be on the service.
They are making several shows for the service which also include their films.
I don't know the price but I'm not sure I want to pay for another service.
-
I voted no but should add that if they did something with Gambit and/or the Thieves Guild, then yeah, I would probably try it out
-
I voted maybe, because I do like Disney, but I'm not sure I want to add another service.

I thibk the same.
-
I voted yes even though it will only be available where I live next year (don't know precisely when) and I have no idea how much it will cost. Still intend to sign up.
-
Definitely tempting. I might add it on or might get rid of Netflix...hmm...
-
For the moment I'm not interested due to the direction they are seemingly taking the MCU in. I have little faith in most of the upcoming stuff at this point. If they decided to do a continuation of the 90's X-Men show or Gambit shows up somewhere then I would have to sign up. It would be out of my hands at that point.
-
Lol, that’s a fun way to put it. It would be out of your hands, You would have no choice but to succumb to the dark side... ;)
-
Yep, you got it. ;D I would pretty much have no choice at that point.
-
Lucky for me, a friend shared their account with me. While I haven't watched a lot of stuff. I can say .. The Mandalorian is really good.

The article talks about baby yoda's name.
Both Favreau and actor/director Taika Waititi know what it really is, but refuse to divulge it in the meantime. The lack of a proper name for the character has resulted in the public simply referring to it as Baby Yoda, which may understandably cause some confusion for those who aren't particularly well-versed with the lore. Baby Yoda isn't actually Yoda (https://screenrant.com/mandalorian-jon-favreau-baby-yoda-theory/), nor is the infant the offspring of the iconic Star Wars character. However, since there's barely any information regarding their species, it somehow make sense to refer to it as such. And by delaying the confirmation of the baby's real name, Star Wars is risking repeating Marvel Studios' gaffe regarding Thanos' purge of half of life in the universe at the end of Avengers: Infinity War (https://screenrant.com/tag/the-avengers-3/).
I agree with the article, they should just tell the fans what the "The Child" name is, we don't even know its species. No baby whatever it is. It's just silly. LOL

Anybody watch WandaVision last night? I was amused. My husband said, now who are these people?
-
I'm not interested in WandaVision. Neither character interests me. I don't know, I might watch an eppy and see. :)
Okay, six minutes in and I stopped. Is it a spoof of Bewitched? It feels that way with the black and white motif and laugh track. I really dislike laugh tracks, its so phoney.
I might try it again, but not right away. :crazy2:

I've been looking forward to it, but I am going to wait until it is all on there and I can watch it all in one go. I did the same thing with The Boys season 2. Not a fan of this new trend of just releasing 1 or two episodes at a time on streaming channels(nor of the ever shortening of those seasons).

I don't think it's a spoof, I think it's a delusion/illusion. The laugh-track is part of the illusion. The black and white goes away by the end of episode two and we're in technicolor. I'm half reminded of Mojoverse, that someone is watching or controlling what's going on. I recommend watching the trailer first before diving in.
The first episode was like Dick Van Dyke/I Love Lucy, the second is more Bewitched. I'm wondering what other shows they'll reference.
I don't know, I was smiling the whole time. I love 50s style and fashion. If you're watching it expecting a sitcom you'll be disappointed. If you're watching it to see a typical Marvel Cinematic Universe, you might be disappointed too. I'm just along for the ride, bc I don't exactly know what it is. There's humor in it, I laughed at the cartoon of Vision's inner works in episode two. There's also commercials, so the ad for the Strucker watch complete with Hydra on the face and the creepy ass toaster made by Stark industries is funny but also sinister.
-
If there is not a ‘Full House’ spoof, marvel has failed. ;)
-
I don't care about Wanda or Vision but I kinda liked WandaVision first 2 episodes. It wasn't great but but not bad eiher. At least it was something completely different from other comic book movies or series.
It would be better if it had old looking vibe but jokes were not so forced or more modern. Second episode should be different from first. Ithink it would be mote interesting if second episode was a musician.
It could and should be more creative. Marvel should have given WandaVision to Noah Hawley who made Legion TV series. Then it would be epic!
-

I think that's pretty much a given for episode 5.
I loved it. I'm not sure how much sense it'd make to anyone who saw Vision die in Endgame and has no knowledge of comic!Scarlet Witch and her powers.
I'm pretty sure the Big Bad in all this is Mephisto, who is going to steal the teenage Speed and Wiccan and whisk them into another dimension. Wanda being a mutant might be hinted at rather than outright stated.

Also Wanda is from Sokovia. She may have grown up watching American TV so that's how she envisioned an ordinary American life (even her accent is gone). The 50's and 60's were simpler times and that's what she wanted for herself and Vision. In the second episode "children" is mentioned many times. Those people kept saying "for the children" but we never really see any children there. It was like a seed put inside Wanda's mind so she was pregnant at the end of the second episode and things started to change and gained color.

Re: Wanda Vision. Well we are progressing through the decades... Partridge family/Brady bunch episode? I guess? Should’ve gone with Mork and Mindy.
Okay onto the 80s, so... What sitcom will it be? Guesses? Who’s the Boss? (An-gel-luh!) Family Ties? Silver Spoons?..Mr. Belvedere! No, PERFECT STRANGERS! Oh, but Punky Brewster...my favorite!
So yes, Full House may be on the horizon. Personally I liked Family Matters better. Did I Do That?
Watched way too much tv as a kid...
-
LOL - I watch too much TV once I stopped working at night. There was so much I didn't know was out there.
I've officially passed on WandaVision. Maybe when its all released and can be binged it might be easier for me.
XD
-
Change up for this episode, some questions answers...and oof, Wanda, want are you doing to poor vision’s body, that ain’t right, girl...
Also, I stumbled across some spoilers and what the ever loving heck? I do not know what to do with this information...
-
I loved 4th episode. It was my favorite so far. Even my wife liked it lol ;D
-
Definitely the best episode so far. Still too short, though.
-

I was going to say the same about my husband liking it!
I fangirled my pants when I saw Agent Woo do that card trick with his business card. Antman must have shown him a trick or two.
-
I literally lol’ed at that. So cute
-
Yeah. Card thing was a nice moment.
-
Whelp, that was the spoiler!! What does it mean?!?!?! Gah, I won’t say anything else because neko’s waiting to watch it. But arghhhh!!!!!!!!
-
There is the spoiler tags and then its on me. LOL *wink*
I am going to binge it when its all released or so I think. XD
-
5th episode is crazy good! :D
-
Ok, so anyone who has see the fifth episode yet using Evan Peters for Pietro seems way too elaborate for just an Easter egg. It has to mean something. From what Darcy said, it’s not a simple recast either. Is he from the Fox verse? Is anyone else from the fox verse showing up? I hope not, I want more of a clean slate. Wanda definitely appears to be the main villain, but they’ll probably do something to show she’s not. And Agnes totally killed sparky... >:(
-
Lol, I guess I’m the only one freaking out. ;D
-
No, you're not! The show keeps getting better every episode. So many cool possibilities/theories/reasons for that.
-
Not crazy about having him appear as Quicksilver for 2 reasons.
I would have preferred the MCU version for emotional impact. Yes, I prefer the FOX version, but, as far as ties to the characters/verse? No. Now I know Marvel is trying to race to beat Warner/DC to the Multiverse (on the big screen, though I'd argue DC already has, twice, beaten them there with the arrow verse and WW 84), but I too prefer a "clean slate", especially as Jackman won't be returning. Jackman's Wolverine claws scratching across Cap's shield would have made me creame my pants, to say nothing of a Hulk flex/rage roar in the background with SNICHT in the foreground, or Cap and McKellan's Magneto sitting and having a discussion about World War 2....but, alas, those days have passed. Evans Quicksilver, while a fan favorite, came from some very poor movies in a soft reboot turned sequel and prequel and then reboot again franchise of films. A crossover could be fun, but ultimately, confusing, as insofar as I know, only Deadpool (already detached from the other Fox films and a 4th wall breaking character anyway) is planning to be utilized from the Fox verse, so, Evan's Quicksilver, well....just felt odd to me.
-
Aw, I didn't think Agnes killed Sparky. I think it's more about Wanda needing the "lessons learned" portion of the 80s sitcom she's put herself in. Uhm, Family Ties, right? Sha-la-la-la.... Can you imagine what that show would be like in today's political environment? Michael J Fox would probably actually murder his parents with a Don't Tread on Me flag.
I am so PSYCHED to see what the 90s bring!!! Can we take bets? Will it be Full House, as mentioned before?
Here's some choices:
Full House
The Nanny
Family Matters
Blossom
Married: With Children (OMG, I'd die)
Fresh Prince of Belaire (if they open with a rap, I'm done. WandaVision will be my new favorite show.)
Outliers because they're not family dramas:
Seinfeld
Friends
Fraiser (LOL, no)
Saved By The Bell (RIP Dustin Diamond)
I don't know Fox version versus MCU version, I only watched the MCU. I'll say, this Pietro seems cuter than the other one, so I'm on board. Though, does he have some kind of New Jersey accent? That I can pass on. MCU Pietro didn't get a cool costume, he just got a track suit and some NIKEs and LOOKED like he belonged in Jersey. I laughed for an inappropriately long amount of time about that, didn't think Age of Ultron was supposed to be a comedy...
-
FOX Quicksilver was always cooler. Never watched Dark Phoenix so I don`t even know if he survived that, lol
NicoPony, these 2 scenes with QS from Days of Future Past and Apocalypse are the only thing that you need with him.

-
Those scenes were the whole reason he was a ‘fan favorite,’ lol then he’d get nerfed for the rest of the movie
-
FOX's Quicksilver is a good example of how stupid they think the audience is. He was there merely for one slowmo matrix type scene and that's it. It worked in DOFP and they did the same exact scene two more times. Three movies and still nothing to his character. He's in those movies only for those scenes then he's just part of the background. Well, he kind of has to be because they overpowered him and he could single handedly solve most of their issues. I honestly think it was insulting. But this was Fox's MO for X-Men characters.
I don't want ANY of the FOX characters to come back. Not one. I want a fresh start and I want every single one handled better.
-
Ok, so episode 6... was more of a Malcolm in the Middle parody. Quicksilver’s Jersey accent is gone and he has at least some of MCU quicksilver’s memories (though wanda’s obviously giving one some fake memories.) but big thing is he’s aware of the whole fake town set up and talks to Wanda about it...hmmm. Wanda is doing this, but says she didn’t start the whole thing. I still don’t trust Agnes, I think she was ‘faking it’ to manipulate vision. Everyone else that far out could barely move, but she could chat...I see you Agnes. >:(

I could’ve sworn Malcolm in the Middle was in the oughts, not the 90s. Pietro’s was really distracting, but the costumes were hilarious.
-
I think you might be right. Maybe they combined the eighties and the nineties last week.

Skipped the best decade of TV. That yogurt commercial spot though, that was definitely 1990s. I was experiencing Dunkaroo/GoGurt flashbacks, which was disturbing enough without the decaying child corpse. What was it even in reference to? I think I didn't "get" the last two commercial spots. The Hydra one, the toaster, and the Strucker ones were obvious.
In my last post, I meant to say Pietro's hair. Damn this tiny font on my tablet.
-
Just to let anyone know, there is a mid credits scene in this episode and ...I still see you Agnes.. >:(
-
Last episode was kinda boring for me but Sparky stuff felt personal at the end:)
-
There was a lot in of rehash. And I’ve had that song stuck stuck in my head since Friday, lol.
-

Dammit, you were right.
Found her intro song to be hilarious though. I'm sorry to have laughed about Sparky, but I kinda did.
The Office theme? That was a surprise.
I also laughed about the depression medication side effects being "more depression." It's funny because it's true.

We watched Flora and Ulysses on Disney+ tonight. Has Ben Schwartz (Parks and Rec’s Jon-Ralfeo), Alyson Hannigan (Buffy’s Willow), Danny Pudi (Community’s Abed), two kid actors. Ben’s character is a comic writer, his daughter is a comic book fan. Intro features a Wolverine mention, Storm cameo, but then later, one of the dad’s characters is a guy in a trench coat, messy haired guy, wielding a bo staff by the name of Sho-bo, the Homeless Warrior. I had to rewind it just to see it again. I LOL’ed.
-
I tried watching Flora and Ulysses, not my thing I guess. The ads looked cute but I think I got about 30 minutes in and said. Nah. LOL

Considering you don’t have a six year old, I don’t blame you. Movies with superhero squirrels are not generally aimed at a wider audience.
I was okay with the WandaVision episode, glad it was longer and more cinematic. I’m super annoyed with the mid-credits crap. Just include it with the show or don’t have 20 minutes worth of credits at the end of a 25 minute show. The cameos of actual tv shows were the best part. Every time I hear “Hayward” I think of Bart Simpson calling Moe’s Tavern and asking for Hayward, Hayward Jablowmie?
-
I strangely love the phrase super hero squirrel...
So the WandaVision finale... kinda disappointing. Not just because of the Pieter reveal, but also: Where is white vision fly off to? What exactly was Hayward’s plan beyond standing around being jerky and reacting stupidly? I mean he was actually right, Wanda was dangerous and did enslave the town, how did he blow that? Why was Monica standing so hard for Wanda, jeez, she barely knew her.
Agatha was at least understandable and the fight was cool. The scarlet witch outfit looked cool, except for the headpiece looked oddly small. Back to Pieter, I’m not sad that this basically means the X-men will be a complete reboot, no holdovers, that’s great. But I didn’t mind fox quicksilver and it’s just rather mind boggling that marvel spent extra money to hire Evan peters and tried to hide it for a big surprise and the ultimate payoff was just a dick joke. :o It’s like...really?
-
It wasn't bad but can't say I really liked final. It was ok, I suppose.
I didn't like fight with Agatha. For me it was just a boring blasting.
Peters stuff felt like a slap. Wasted good actor.
Liked new costume and Vision fight.
Overall I would say that there were not enough of Vision in WandaVision and standart final fight where Wanda fights purple Wanda and Vision fights White Vision.
-
Whaaah! Sad to say I was disappointed as well.
I hate all the explosions. I usually fast forward thru the Avengers movies during these scenes, same way I fast forward through the parts of Project Runway during the “call home and cry” scenes. Just get back to the story already!
The Vision fight was good though because it was less of the “let me stand up here and laugh” kind of fight.
I give it a C+.
-
I wasn't disappointed by the show or the finale, per se. I am disappointed that the show producers actually thought Agatha was a surprise. I would have sworn it was a meta-joke, which is why they went so hard with the reveal and the "song". I figured it was obvious misdirection for something else... but no. It's exactly that. They thought Agatha was fooling someone. That part was whack. Monica going to bat so hard for Wanda felt a bit forced. But we'll most likely not have too many instances of two female characters not getting along with each other in present-day Disney projects. I was intrigued by the ending. The 2nd one. Wanda learning from the Darkhold is going to be a problem in the near future. If that's her foundation - then, yeah, no bueno.
All the theories.. Marvel has cultivated this in its work thus far. It's their own fault people were looking for easter eggs. Cant swing on us 20 times and then hide your hands on the 21st attempt and act like your innocent. We're looking for the hook.
-
I liked the ending. The only disappointing thing was that Pietro was just some guy. Was expecting him to be a Pietro from another universe.
-
I thought about watching Falcon and Winter Soldier - but I don't like either character all that much, so I will wait til its all released, maybe binge it if I even remember.
On a different thought. - warning - rant-ish.
Raya and the Last Dragon: Okay, first up Disney+ and friends (other streaming services) tells you it will cost extra. Fine. Taking the monthly fee into account and how people are accessing it aside, $30 to watch a new film because people can not go to theaters anymore is ridiculous. Absolutely stupid.
In my area (and I mean that loosely - one theater is a 45 min drive), there are now only five theaters. The big chain closed, probably won't come back and I'm literally stuck driving to a theater that will only show one film now (Tom and Jerry - yawn) or some old film that I don't want to see.
I bought a new film via Amazon for a couple bucks more than a theater and was cheaper than going to a theater, make your own popcorn or whatevers but its a depressing way to see new movies. It's another thing I miss, going to a movie theater.
In the end, Disney is out of its ever lovin' mind if they think I'll spend $30 to see a new film. Wait til its on TV for me.
Done with my rant. LOL

Just because Falcon went to New Orleans, my heart went crazy thinking about some sort of hint of our cajun

Yeah, although I knew it was nearly impossible, I felt the same.
-
So very sad, shocking tragic development in the Falcon and the Winter Solider...the headstock is now officially in the MCU. I won’t say why or how, because spoilers, but still WHY!?!? Why did you bring in the headstock as part of the MCU costumes. It looks silly in comics and, said the say, silly on the screen... * uncontrollable weeping and dramatically running out of the room*
