Either way, it's getting aggressively cancelled two weeks after it comes out.
I was hoping the show would at least be sent off on a high, but instead it departs in ignominy.

Rumors on the plot synopses of the Disney+ shows
I'm most intrigued by the rumored Hawkeye series.

Doesn't the Hawkeye series only work if he doesn't have a family? Gonna guess they're all coming back after Endgame.
lol at anyone believing the Sif rumor (I will happily eat crow if a trade corroborates it, but ffs, she last appeared in a film in 2013)
I think Jamie Alexander's commitment to Blindspot is about to end, leaving her free to play Sif again.
Alexander's availability isn't the main reason to doubt the rumor; the character and source are.
Seriously, Scarlett Witch, Loki, Rocket & Groot... and Sif? Reaaaaally doesn't fit. Also Valkyrie is just plain better.
Alexander is cheaper, so if anything her tv show being the one to introduce a more cg heavy character makes sense
But I saw the 4chan rumor and that scarlet witch stuff is pure bad fanfiction so I have serious doubts about everything that comes from that
Squirrel Girl fans hear your pain, Mamba

Nope. Carol is just muscle. BP has a country to run. Wasp is a leader.
Yeah but I doubt it, Carol and BP will be the two figureheads of the Newvengers
I think she's starting to realize.
He did not.
Wasn't him in Guardians. And I don't think a statue counts lol
What's the context? Seems like people are mad at her about something related to BLM?
[edit]
Wait, there's actually people who shit on black women for taking roles because they're "too light skinned"!? TIL this is a thing.

Black Lives Matter is a movement whose aim is to end police brutality.
Alexandra Shipp is contrasting that with people not wanting her to play Storm because she's not dark enough.
It's idiotic and insulting regardless of whether or not her skin tone matters.

Captain Marvel 3: Civil War 2.
This time, there are 3 teams!
Follow that with Secret Invasion.
I feel bad for Alexandra Shipp, especially if you look at all those comments. She's been salty and fighting people online since the announcement of Disney buying Fox (and pretty much confirming they'll reboot the X-Men and she'll be recast). She should just keep her mouth shut and not engage, but I don't think she can help herself.
The red carpet and marketing for this movie will be painful for the talent, if it does indeed gets released. All the more reason why this movie is a dumpster fire and should be cancelled and written off.

As bad as the news surrouning it has been, all that won't stop "Dark Phoenix" from earning money. There's a reason Fox hasn't been bombarding us with trailers, cross-promotional materials, etc: they're trying to keep the marketing costs of this film low enough for the company to recoup some money. We know the budget for this thing is ~$200 million, and lets assume the reduced advertising means Fox is only spending $200 million on promotion, which is also on the higher end of things.
$400 million dollars gross is not a hard target for a mainstream superhero blockbuster to hit. Will it be critically savaged? Probably. Will it earn at least $400 million dollars? I'd 100% think so.
Disney wrote off 157MM last quarter on Vice. 100MM+ in one quarter last year on Gigantic. That 200MM is not that much money to Disney, especially coming off a 72B + debt acquisition. It's sunk cost and it's better for the long term viability of the brand to write this waste off and start rebooting.
EDIT: We'll see though, if it gets released in theaters I'll be entertained regardless watching the shitshow play out.
But, there's a difference between these examples. For Vice Media and Gigantic, those were written off because Disney knew there was no way they could recoup their money spent. In the short-run, you can't make money on a flagging media brand and an animation project with no completed footage. With X-Men, there clearly is a path for them to recoup Fox's investment: releasing the movie. 200 million dollars isn't a lot to Disney as a whole, but why lose money when you don't need to? Frankly speaking, I doubt this will hurt the long-term viability for X-Men. I don't think it takes an expert to realize that Disney will let the X-Men characters rest before they begin work on them. The Fantastic Four alone are such a huge property that Disney doesn't need to start messing with mutants until Phase 5. With a gap of three to five years and the strength of the MCU brand, "Dark Phoenix" won't inflict any damage to the MCU that Feige's vision & Disney's marketing machine can't fix.
Because you make more money long term by not releasing it. That money is gone, it's sunk cost. The argument you're making that they are making money on Dark Phoenix could easily be made for a modern WDA movie that got cancelled. Anyways, I digress. We'll see soon enough.
Haven't been here in a month, what are the chances the Far from home trailer spoils avengers or just recaps the movie like the 1st one did.
I thought Marvel Studio has been trying to delay the trailer as long as they could. Might mean there are some spoiler they don't want to reveal
In that case they wouldn't just want to delay it, would they?
Anything concerning Sony Pictures wouldn't surprise me at this point, but I imagine they have a good enough relationship with Marvel Studios that they'll avoid spoiling Endgame.

Where did you get that thought? I didn't see that reported anywhere.
If it's the same trailer they showed in Brazil last month, it doesn't mention Avengers at all.
Why don't people ever post a link to the new threads discussing new MCU stuff in this thread?
