Albarracin Week 2- Phase 4 of the MCU

    Over the last couple of months, several trailer have been released for new MCU projects.  I have tried my best no to think about them, and this is mostly due to them being too exiting to think about.  These new projects seem very promising and definitely have fans going crazy over them.  Several videos have come out over theories about these trailers, and they represent the anxiety and emotion of marvel fans as they prepare for a new phase of heroes.  

    The first project I need to cover is Loki. It is a show that will be streaming on Disney Plus.  The trailer reveals Loki using the Teseract  to teleport away from the custody of the Avengers.  He lands at an unknown destination, and from there we see   Loki in the custody of the TVA., or Time Variance Authority.  He must pay for his crimes against time and also the crimes of the Avengers after their "Time Heist" in Avengers: Endgame.  We see his adventures and shenanigans as he ventures through time as an agent of the TVA, and I cannot wait to see this project come to life.  It s the chance Tom Hiddleston deserves after his heart breaking performance in Infinity War.  

    Falcon and the Winter Soldier is a project that has combined two very unlikely partners.  Falcon (Sam Wilson) and the Winter Soldier (Bucky) team up to carry on the legacy of Captain America.  This new edition breaks grounds in representation, canonical progression, and maintains the hype for phase 4.  The trailer revealed fantastic action sequences, new technology, new haircuts, and a new captain america,.  Although the news about Captain America's death was heartbreaking, but this installment will definitely fill the void left behind by Steve Rogers.  

Wanda Vision took me by surprise for sure.  I loved Vision in age of Ultron, and I have read up on scarlet witch.  These characters wield immense power, and yet all they can think about is leading a normal life for themselves.  They are living in this peaceful quaint suburban area, surrounded by friendly neighbors and mystery.  Their reality slowly unravels around them as they struggle to believe what is real and what is fantasy.  That show will definitely be a mysterious one and break the mold of most marvel projects.

  1. I have also seen trailers for these new shows. Although I like that Marvel is branching out to give its fans more options, I still think that they made a mistake by making the MCU one single world. I would have much preferred that they keep Avengers and Gaurdians of the Galaxy separate. I will have to say though, Marvel did a great job establishing the time stone, so that way if they ever mess up, they can fix their mistakes. Good blog!

  2. I'm a huge Marvel fan, so I'm also super excited to see these shows. I literally can't wait to see in what direction they go with these story lines. I watched the first two episodes of WandaVision today since it was just released, and I have to say I'm a little confused, but it was still really good! I excited to see where they are going to take it from there and am looking forward to the next episode.

  3. My dad and I have each been collecting comics since we were six and are huge fans of the MCU. After we watched the first two episodes of Wandavision we sat down and talked about all the easter eggs for an hour. I too am super excited to see where they go not only with the TV shows but also the movies they will soon release.
