Spider-Man: Far From Home is the final film in Phase 3 of the MCU

FeD · Apr 21, 2019

Like if it was a prequel they would probably have announced it already, or made it obvious from the first trailer since it would be something Marvel would want to show.

I think it's nice that this is the epilogue. Since the first one had the chitauri tech angle, and this one seems to have that one as well it would be nice if FFH just wraps that story up at the end. Thanos, the chitauri etc. wrapped up this phase. All new stuff phase 4.

there's absolutely no way they're killing the lead actor of their biggest movies

They haven't made an Iron Man movie in 6 years.

Tony Stark hasn't led a film since 2013. Unless you count Civil War, but that was still a Captain America movie that mainly focused on Steve and Bucky's relationship. I'd love an Iron Man 4 but there's been no hint of it.

If we get Norman, then I pray they just do Dark Reign, and not goblins.

Same, I'm curious if that's why Marvel wanted to use him because they've already got a good set up for Dark Avengers & Siege. Maybe him just being the shadowy figure behind the Sinister Six is a precursor to his Dark Reign arc rather than Goblin or something, I'd like that.

I was actually just talking about Avengers and pseudo avengers like Civil War

??

He hasn't been their only big draw in a while, and the newcomers are starting to trounce Iron Man's entries. They will do fine without RDJ.

Not that I want him gone.

No I don't think so

Civil War is definitely Iron Man movie in big way. Both Iron man and Cap movie i would say rest is just cameo

As a big fan of the MCU all I can say is this whole "Phase" business is just nonsense.

I think it's more for them. It would help with organizing and planning the movies, making sure things sync up.

It's something that the DC movies would benefit from.

Sticking to my theory that it's secretly a prequel to Infinity War and the final scene will be in the school bus when Thanos attacks NY.

Cuburger said:
But they are in a bus heading away from New York, not back to New York.

Maybe they were going on the trip during IW (going to the airport?). But obviously, it gets cancelled and all that shit happens.
They come back and try to return to normal life which means they get to go on that trip now.

Because like many people have stated in this thread, if you actually watch Infinity War and pay attention to the dialog spoken by the characters in the movie, the bus was going to the MOMA (Museum of Modern Art) in NYC, not the airport.

Who pays attention to movies these days?!?

/s

Yea I missed that. Peter goes on a lot of field trips doesn't he?

Yams · Apr 21, 2019

If Tony dies having FFH be about how Spidey moves on from that trauma it would be the perfect epilogue to the phase

bunkitz · Apr 21, 2019

Oh. Huh. Well, that seems to make more sense and I like that. I found it a bit strange that we knew all this about Far From Home but absolutely nothing else about Phase 4 and post-Endgame in general.

Makes me even more curious about what's gonna happen at the end of Endgame...

Is there info out there saying that not a second of Far From Home takes place in NYC?

You know what's crazy? Thanos' threat is milder than Malekith's, who would have ended the universe with a single Infinity stone. To think this guy is the MCU's most dangerous villain.

Is that what Malekith was trying to do? Ive seen that movie twice and still didnt get it. All I understood was that he wanted to make the universe....... dark? I assumed because it made for better living conditions for *dark* elves?

But I guess he was just trying to end it all? So he was just evil and that's it?

No, some of it takes place in NYC. When he's wearing the red and black costume that he didn't have in Infinity War.

Halbrand · Apr 21, 2019

I still think Civil War would have made a fitting end for Phase 2, not that it really matters

From what I vaguely remember, the Dark Elves came from before there was light (life?) in the universe and was trying to revert it back to that stage because he believed life was better back then. Or maybe the Dark Elves were from before there was even a universe. I don't even remember how Thor stopped him, was it by crashing his own ship into him? I watched this film 2 weeks ago. I should know this.

I'm so glad their isn't an exam for MCU because Thor: The Dark World would just ruin me.

Can you explain this sarcastic response cause I don't get it or how it has any connection to what I said...

Haha it's just a bit of fun, I hope it didn't come off as too mean. Basically you're saying what if they were going to a field trip...the day after their overseas trip? Never heard of a school that would do that, c'mon. It's just completely unnecessary to try to slot Far from Home before Infinity War.

They've said explicitly time and again Far from Home takes place after Infinity War. There's no reason to keep theorizing how the movie is actually secretly a prequel to Infinity War as much as there is reason to theorize Infinity War is secretly a prequel to Iron Man.

Wait FFH starts immediately after Endgame?

Watch the beginning of this movie be Peter on the same bus he ditched in IW.

Yep this was my prediction. That bus Peter is on at the beginning of infinity war is the bus taking his class to the airport for their field trip.

But in Far From Home Peter decides not to take the suit before leaving home.

Maybe the time travel takes him back far enough instead of being right on the bus? Good point though.

He's clearly in his red and blue suit with Fury in a boat in Venice. May probably stashes it in his luggage. Or Fury brings it.

Yeah, but Peter has it easily accessible on the bus when he doesn't know it's stashed away in FFH until the airport.

I guess using the reality stone to make everything look dark, and without the light, stuff die.

Falchion · Apr 22, 2019

Weird but I suppose it makes sense.

stone616 · Apr 22, 2019

Talk about going out with a whimper. This movie's announcement undermines Endgame.

It's just how marvel organizes the expansion of the universe- introducing new characters and linking the various franchises to common threads. Viewers really don't need to be bothered by talk of phases.
