So MCU Phase 4... *mind blown*

Also Avengers finally did it.

Only one of the confirmed movies I'm particularly excited about is Love and Thunder which is super surreal considering the general opinion on MCU Thor 3 years ago. Nice to see Natalie Portman back again as Ike Perlmutter pissed her off before Feige got full MCU control. Jane Thor should be good too

Personally this was the historic mic drop moment of SDCC 2019.

Not excited that Portman's back. She's not a particularly good actress and, to make it worse, she always seems to phone in her big budget roles.

Ha! I knew the Mandarin would be the big bad for Shang-Chi. Glad they're gonna do one of Marvel's most underrated villains right this time.

Also, Zemo better have a purple condom on his face when he returns in the Falcon/Winter Soldier show.

I look forward to seeing Shang Chi because having an Asian superhero movie is long over due. I'm iffy on Blade because I'm worried that they will make it PG-13 if Blade is going to be a movie and Blade is one of those characters that needs to be R rated to work based on the themes and aesthetics of the character.

Everything else I'm meh on because I feel like we have too many spin off shows and I think some characters probably able to hold their own weight on their own.

As someone who's only experience with Blade was the 90's Spiderman cartoon (back when he was depicted as white for the record), I feel inclined to agree as the new Blade's performance as Cottonmouth in Luke Cage really sold me on how good Mahershala Ali was in this kind of setting. I remember Bob Igor saying that R rated movies would be considered after the success of Deadpool which would give hope, but there's also the fact Disney wants toys and despite Spawn, Robocop, Alien and many more franchises proving otherwise, they seem to believe you can't make toys for more mature franchises despite the contrary being proven

Uh, no he wasn't. His skin wasn't as dark as it perhaps should have been, but he definitely wasn't "depicted as white".

I just hope they finally give Blade the British accent he deserves.
