Doom has ties to Krona. That's why Marvel is about to make him ridiculously powerful, he's the bridge between the two universes. They're warming everybody up. This will end with reality cracking open and fucking Superman flying into the MCU. Thor tosses him Mjolnir, Steve Rogers who somehow returned hands him the shield, and recreate that legendary JLA/Avengers shit. The X-Men will spend the whole saga as glorified cameo bitches, cute entrances, a few little fights, then right back in the penalty box. Yup, bookmark this shit: DC Superman/MCU Avengers crossover incoming. The breadcrumbs are already there.
Edit: Come on, man, they already did a Deadpool/Batman comic crossover. A DC Superman/Marvel Avengers movie would print money for both companies.
I'd love for that to happen but why would Marvel want to do this? To put it in gaming terms, Marvel is PlayStation still releasing big hits while DC is Xbox struggling to survive.

Why would Marvel do it? Money. They already tested the waters: Marvel's Deadpool/Batman became the best-selling comic of 2025 in both units and revenue, while DC's companion issue also finished in the top three. Now imagine the cinematic equivalent. Marvel wouldn't be rescuing DC, they'd be turning a once-in-a-generation crossover into a money printer. And BTW, PlayStation doesn't have to be struggling before it agrees to print money.
Edit: There's also relationship-building happening at the top. James Gunn and Kevin Feige already have a long working relationship, still communicate regularly, and Gunn has acknowledged that a Marvel–DC crossover has at least been discussed. Won't happen anytime soon but I can see there being a build up to something bigger than End Game.
Maybe they stopped faking their trailers. Several scenes in the IW trailer never even made it into the final film. Hulk doesn't even show up. Banner was sitting in the Hulkbuster all the time.
That trailer was auto disqualified because Pedro Pascal. They need to stop shoehorning his ass in every nook and cranny.
Edit: it's a good trailer, though..

I'll admit, I loved Infinity War despite some minor nitpicks, I think Endgame was a terrible movie, but this trailer was pretty decent. I'm surprised they showed characters like Shang Chi or the new Black Panther in a prominent way, I thought not a lot of people cared about their movies.
Completely unnecesary to bring back Chris Evans yet again, and I'm not looking forward to the third act of the movie, with a mindless army of generic minions that Doom will use so everyone can punch at something.

If I still cared about Marvel I dont necessarily mind bringing Evans back so he can get chewed out for the BS he pulled and to get confirmation on exactly what he did since the directors and writers have two different stories on that but if he's not going to shave and take back the shield it's just a waste of time regardless.
Yep, watch that trailer than watch this Doomsday trailer, the quality drop is insane. Granted, its just a trailer, but for the FIRST TRAILER, you'd think they would have put some effort into it. Did they have the marketing B team assemble the Doomsday trailer?

Steve went back to clap Peggy's cheeks and enjoy retirement. He already knew how the things go with Hydra, so as far as he was concerned, history had that shit handled. I think it's possible that sometime after Steve returned the Stones the Ancient One saw something was changed resulting in Doomsday and asked Steve to come out of retirement to fix it. So still having the suit and equipment and with a little help from the Ancient one jumped forward (or back towards where he came from), summoned Thor's hammer to confirm it's him, saved reality one last time, then went back to Peggy and resumed clapping cheeks. Park-bench Steve is still the same dude, just much later in his personal timeline. If I'm right, this captain America will have the shield and the mission became personal after he was shown this Doom is a Tony Stark variant who became Doom instead of Iron Man.
Edit: What makes Captain America such a serious problem for Doom is that Steve already knows he survives. He always intended to give Sam the shield, so the moment he sees Sam carrying it, he knows they eventually win, he just doesn't know how until it happens.

I feel like they A. only have some scenes done with SFX and B are sooooooooooooooooooo worried about plot leaks that they just handed them a bunch of snippets and they did what they could with it.

Well, you don't really have any emotional connection that got build up from the first Avengers movie and the MCU at that time. Here it hits hard because you know these people and more than that, you care about them.
The music is better too.
Also, it could be that they really don't have any good material to use.
I grew up with Toby MacGuire Spiderman. He introduced me to the series as a kid, and I became obsessed with it. It was awesome.
BTW, I don't know if it just me, but I never really got too attached to Tom Holland Spiderman. He did a good job and all especially in showing the teenage kid side to the character, but I didn't like how he often seemed to be the cause of the conflict in almost every movie he was in.
In Far From Home, Peter gives Mysterio the glasses that essentially give the owner access to dangerous drones that can level cities with the weapons attached to them. It was such a stupid move for Peter to do, handing over this power to a stranger he LITERALLY just met a few days earlier who he knows nothing about. In No Way Home, Peter is the direct cause of the entire conflict in the movie. He makes Dr. Strange attempt a memory erasure spell on the entire planet because his secret identity was blown. After he inadvertently messes with Strange's concentration, the spell backfires. This brings villains from different universes into the world. As a result, this Peter is responsible for the death of Aunt May.
His character just comes off as incredibly irresponsible to me at times, which I guess is the point for a young Spiderman.
For me I'm a bit interested in seeing the continuation of Andrew Garfield's Spiderman story. It kind of ended on a cliffhanger with the reveal that a mysterious puppet master is pulling the strings and seemingly intends to create the Sinister Six with all the secret Oscorp technology he has access to. Like who is this guy, what is his relationship to Spiderman, and why is he hellbent on creating supervillains for Spiderman to fight?
