Dammit that reminds me how much I want to watch Far From Home again but it's not on any streaming services I have!
At least I can watch Homecoming on FXNow

Nice! I've been lookin to watch both of these as well and didn't know about FX having one. Thanks for the tip!

I can't remember if this has been posted here but I thought it was really useful. It's a weekly release schedule for MCU conntent that shows something new being released every single week this year between series' and movies. Although, now that Loki appears to be dropping on 6/11 per @Triggermv, I'm not sure if it's completely accurate any more. And, at this point with even Fiege saying it'll be theatrical only for Black Widow, I would guess that gets pushed to Late Summer or Fall/Winter as well.

Yeah, I think this new announcement throws off that table somebody made up a bit (I guarantee it was made with reasonable speculation), but not a ton. Ultimately, it is crazy to think that we will have new MCU content nearly every single week in 2021. I'm salivating a bit just saying that. As for Black Widow, I still think it holds its release date, and if anything, Feige finally relents and allows it to be released both in theaters and with Premium Access on Disney+. We'll see. If it does get bumped, I don't think it gets bumped far based on the rate at which U.S. and World cases are falling. It was big news recently when it was announced that New York was going to be opening their moving theaters finally. That is one of the two big markets movie theaters have been holding out for, with the last one being LA.

That's my question. Does he eventually come back and end up dying at the hands of Thanos?

So many questions with the alternate timeline they create after End Game. Since Thanos from the past was snapped away, does he still go on to get all the stones and snap in Infinity War? Is Gamora gone forever, or will they figure something out in GotG3?
Hey @Triggermv what are the answers?

Gamora came back in Endgame from the alternate timeline and then left somewhere I believe. So she is still around.

This was the explanation I saw, which doesn't answer the "is there two loki's" question, but I think gives you an idea of where you are supposed to be picking up at the start of Loki, timeline wise.

"The answer is that during the “time heist,” the mainline Avengers we love created a variety of alternate timelines when they changed the past, one of them included accidentally giving Loki back the Cosmic Cube after his capture at Stark Tower, which we first saw in 2012’s first Avengers movie. Instead of being taken back to Asgard to await punishment though, Loki teleported off-Earth to whereabouts unknown. Well, they’re about to become known."

Its really quite simple....... I've got no clue. Ultimately, the time travel and timeline rules of Endgame are all over the board and wildly inconsistent. Therefore, I'm just going to rely on them in the upcoming series to explain things better. Shoot, both the writers of Endgame and the Directors of Endgame have given conflicting views on all the timeline stuff since the movie was released.

Ok, thank goodness I'm not the only one confused by it. Loved the movies, but the timeline got all wibley wobley timey wimey

If Trigger didn't get all of it, then I'm not an idiot.

Well, did she get snapped out with Thanos? Because she wasn't around at the end of that movie!

I'm just hoping that the Loki show doesn't just end up as the MCU's version of Legends of Tomorrow (DC show on the CW). On the surface, there are a lot of similarities with all the time travel and Loki running into the Time Variance Authority, whereas Legend's of Tomorrow dealt with the Time Bureau (DC's version of Time police). I absolutely hated and despised that show. In general, I want less time travel for the future of the MCU rather than more. It just makes things more confusing than it already is and only adds even more inconsistencies.

 

[CycloneErik]

Huh?? Wtf. There’s two Loki’s?

He's spot on. You gotta think comic book on this one.

Yeah, more time travel equals more ****** up timelines and inconsistencies. But since it's Loki, I think it'll work.

You don't want mess with the TVA, Time Bureau or Time Cops:

How much of legends of tomorrow did you watch?

The first season kind of sucked, but they shifted the second season, took things a lot less seriously and had more fun with it and it became really good.

But I agree that time travel probably wouldnt work too well as a long-running thing for the MCU. For it to work you have to do what LoT ended up doing- not take it seriously or care about the consequences, and i don't think that fits well within the MCU.

I watched the first 3 seasons of it and I was the opposite. I actually thought S1 was the best (even though it wasn't good), and only got worse from there. Man, that show was so so stupid.... at least to me.

You guys lasted longer than I. I only made it about 5 episodes in, before i decided there were better things to watch.

Kevin Feige Says There Are Currently No Plans To Explore R-Rated MCU Projects Beyond DEADPOOL 3

We know Deadpool 3 will be rated-R, but despite persistent rumors to the contrary, Kevin Feige has now confirmed that there are no current plans for more adult-oriented Marvel Cinematic Universe projects.

www.comicbookmovie.com

Looks like Feige has no intention beyond Deadpool 3 for R rated movies in the MCU. It doesn't seem like a hard no, but I'd say the odds aren't great for other movies like Blade delving into the R territory.

Kevin Feige Addresses Rumors AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. And Other Marvel Television Properties Will Join The MCU

Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige opens up on the rumours that he has plans for characters from the worlds of both Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and The Defenders, comparing Marvel Television to Fox and Sony.

www.comicbookmovie.com

Kevin Feige talks quite a lot in an interview about all the prior Marvel TV shows. I can't say there is too much to glean overtly as to his plans for all those characters, as he chooses his words very wisely. However, there is some wording in there that is certainly open to interpretation and speculation. Its worth a read for sure.

Eliminating a big chunk of your audience would not make sense for Disney, especially when you want those pre-teens and teens to become life-long consumers of your product.

If Disney/Marvel sat on Deadpool 3 given how sequel crazy Hollywood has become, that'd be the best evidence yet that they are in full blown antitrust laws territory with their Fox acquisition.

Sequels are where the vast majority of merchandising money comes from. On Deadpool 2 the amount of licensing/merchandising interest was 100x the original.

For the timelines, i have to look at it like this. There is 2 lokis (Obviously 1 is dead) because the time heist allowed his, Thanos and Gamora's escape from the timeline itself into the current MCU (Loki i assume is beyond time). But since Captain America brought the stones back to the moment they were taken, that reality returns to what it would have been had they not done it in the first place. Time travel resets stink.

 

[bluestarcyclone]

From watching enough shows delve into time travel over the years, i think the best lesson is just don't try to think about it and just enjoy the ride. No matter what, if you think about time travel and the logistics, it breaks down.

 

[State43]

And if they make any deadpool movies, gotta be R. Most would be fine with DP appearing in another movie that is PG13 though.
