CAPTAIN AMERICA: BRAVE NEW WORLD - WWE Superstar Seth Rollins' Role Has Reportedly Been Revealed

@comicfan100 - I hope so, because I hated what they did to Sharon in FATWS.

@SonOfAGif - So... hold on I'm thinking through this as I type... what if essentially "CA:BNW" and "Thunderbolts" are essentially a Part 1 and Part 2 of this story (which it's kinda feeling like they are) which both revolve around Val creating her own team of Super Soldiers? Makes sense so far based on what we've seen so far (especially with her recruiting John Walker). AND what if the person that we saw "Carter" (could be a Skrull) call at the end of "FanWS" was Val, essentially setting her up with more SS serum, which Val uses to create the Serpent Society by mixing it with snake DNA, etc. to essentially up its potency. So New Cap has to deal with that.

BUT THEN we find out that while Val thinks she's calling the shots here it's actually the Leader who is trying to build his own group of gamma-irradiated SSs based on Banner's blood, which leads into "Thunderbolts". The Leader's creation of a group of Hulk-based SSs goes wrong, they go on a rampage, and they put together the Thunderbolts to deal with them because it takes SSs to take out SSs (plus a lot of them have criminal records and may not have any choice). BUT finally when all seems lost, Ross does the whole "Fine. I'll do it myself." thing (which I could TOTALLY see Ford saying) and has the Leader juice him up as the Red Hulk. BUT while Rulk is able to take down the bad guys, he's out of control at the end and the TBs have to take him down, which they do and they live to fight another day. Roll credits!

WHEW! I'm lie exhausted even from typing that, but if Marvel even comes close to pulling off everything that I just entailed, I'll be a happy camper.

@SonOfAGif - Yeah, I hear ya, but I think that they had a couple of reasons for going with the "Multiverse Saga" and making the "Super Soldier Saga" a kind of "mini-saga" within it:

1. They wanted to do a saga just as large if not larger than the "Infinity Saga", otherwise it would have felt like a step down in scale
2. They had to come up with a way to incorporate all the properties that they had acquired rom the Fox merger in as organic a way as possible
3. The launch of D+ drove the need for a lot of new content rapidly which, along with COVID and Chapek's influences, led to them being rather disjointed in Phase 4

Of those 3 above, I think (but I'm just guessing) that #2 was the one that Feige cared about the most and was the most important to him, while the other two were more corporate-mandated ("gotta get asses in theaters and subscribers"). So as far as a "SS Saga" would have gone, it probably wouldn't have been grand enough in scale on its own to do alone and it was probably decided to just tack it on as more content, even though it (so far) doesn't really seem to have much to do with the larger "MS". In fact, I would bet (but again don't know) that if Kevin had his way they probably wouldn't have done a "SS Saga" right now at all and just focused on the "MS" to make sure that they get that right. Then again, maybe they just thought that the SS stuff was the more grounded aspect of this saga as opposed to all the Multiversal shenanigans going on concurrently. Dunno. Would have LOVED to have been a fly on the wall for those conversations though.

@PatientXero - Yeah, you're late, buddy. They confirmed the title change a few days ago.

@MarvelZombie616 - just like you thought growing up, nobody cares.

@MarvelZombie616 - You're not alone. The MCU is DOA. GOTG 3 was the last hurrah and it's all downhill from there. GSP as Batroc was a stretch but at least GSP is an MMA GOAT and has a legit crazy French accent and was in the MCU for about 4.5 minutes. Seth Rollins is a character Colby Lopez plays on TV that has been extremely hit or miss since the WM MOITB run in years ago.

@MosquitoFarmer -

Nope.

Having a great day!

@DocSpock -


The title change is now being blamed on woke?


Jesus Christ you people are delusional 🤡😳

@comicfan100 -

Who is yall? You seem to think I'm in some sort of group. I prefer to think for myself. It seems like you are in some kind of yall group who wants to label everyone & group them up. referring to yourself as belonging to "us rational people" is laughable. Enjoy your groupthink you drone.

@comicfan100 -

Another pitiful generalization. I don't refer to everything I disagree with as woke. The weak-minded parrot that as some kind of mantra.

@DocSpock - define what wOkE means without sounding ignorant

@JoJo1982 - Woke means the enforcement of Wishful Thinking upon what otherwise should be simple and rational decision making.

It is favoring abstract ideals about the world and disregarding reality.

That's what it is.

What it results in is
Pats on the Head for co-aligning with unrealistic group think.
The coddling of minority groups, encouraging infantile behavior and group superiority.
In fact, Woke ideology actively harms minority groups for this exact reason. Instead of spending effort improving their situations, Wokism allows them to live in a fairy tale land, and provides no incentive for true betterment.

I left the important that it results in.

It results in witch hunting against the individuals who refuse to share this fantasy group think.
The only way to enforce fabulistic group think is to punish those who speak truth against it.

@TempleRod - wow!!! That’s not even what woke means and it’s just pretty much something you just made up.

You could’ve at least google it lol

@DiegoMD - Yeah, the writer they got isn't very promising. Would have thought they'd get a more experienced guy to come in for rewrites
