    Is Wandavision the first? I thought Bucky and Falcon was supposed to happen first.

    I want to say Bucky & Falcoln didn't quite finish shooting before everything shut down, so it may end up being delayed. Not 100% on that.

    It was. They've started shooting it again, so it'll probably be early...ish 2021 now

    Until someone on set catches covid anyway

    I'm still annoyed that it wasn't named Captain America and the Winter Soldier, but I guess that may cause confusion with the movie.

    It’s the last holdover of the now-dissolved Marvel TV, I’d be shocked if it led to any sort of crossover

    Could still be a worthwhile standalone season though

    OTOH if most of these shows are designed as one and dones it's not so bad. However that sounds like it'd be expensive long term as you wouldn't get as much set/prop re-use etc.

    It does feel like a course correction away from Star Wars to something Disney knows is popular though.

    Main difference is that Fiege is better at wrangling the MCU than Kathleen Kennedy has been at wrangling Star Wars.

    Whether or not he can keep that up when they go from 3 movies a year to 3 movies + 3 shows a year is definitely a question, though.

    Fury is probably a villain when there isn't a worse villain around, right?

    Like the crazy shit from Winter Soldier, everyone was completely on board with murdering people for the likelihood of them committing a crime at some point in the future until someone realized Hydra would get the credit instead of shield, that's a thing that happened

    It gets worse. He still wanted his giant murder machine back from Hydra and had to be told by Captain America that it wasn’t happening and he needed to get with the program.

    Theoretically wouldn’t this also save money if you reuse assets from other shows, since it’s all one universe?

    If they use Mandalorian tech they probably won't have many sets to change out other than props which shouldn't be a big deal. Keeps CGI artists busy, too.

    Fury is absolutely a villain but I'm not sure how many of the writers actually feel that way

    I've shitposted about it but I feel that the MCU isn't even "the only thing that can stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun" but rather "bad guys usually get their guns by STEALING them from good guys that did nothing wrong"

    -Thunderbolt Ross is still around and was Secretary of State last he was seen.
    -Abomination is alive, last heard from as being in the custody of the US Military
    -Samuel Sterns is alive and MIA.
    -Justin Hammer is alive, in jail.
    -Loki is dead, but Alt-Loki is running around apparently
    -Red Skull is basically free on Vormir in the main timeline, the soul stone have been acquired and destroyed.
    -Real Mandarin is around
    -Zemo is in captivity, possibly by the CIA?
    -Dormommu still exists
    -Baron Mordo is at large
    -High Preistess Ayesha of the Sovereign (and Adam Warlock) is alive and actively plotting revenge
    -Vulture is in jail
    -Scorpion is in Jail
    -The Grandmaster is alive. Maybe.
    -Ghost is around, though not quite a villain anymore
    -Yon-Rogg and the Kree Supreme Intelligence are alive as far as we know. (Granted that was in the 90's, so who knows)

    Some surviving contingent of Hydra has some Pym particles, will probably make Black Ant or something

    I would very much like them to pull the trigger on Prowler

    I think a Shocker (can’t remember if Woodbine was Montana or Schultz) and Tinkerer are alive (in jail?), the latter of which would be a good candidate for Team Mysterio since they need new leadership

    We’re about to get Kang

    Ultron would be very easy to bring back in some capacity

    I don’t think there is a way to read Winter Soldier in a way that doesn’t paint him as only slightly better than Hydra but after that it seems like they might have lost track of Fury being at best “our monster”.

    Soundcloud Klaw

    I'm sure they're awful but I doubt Klaw's rap tracks make for a full fledged villain. At best a side villain that temporarily waylays the heroes.

    In a battle for the worst living villain in the MCU, I think Fury ultimately beats Wilson Fisk.

    Project Insight is leagues worse than anything Fisk does or seeks to accomplish in three seasons of Daredevil.

    That said, I would feel 1000% safer dealing with Fury than Fisk.
