Yes, I considered that, and if handled just that way it could be a distraction. But there are a few other ways to approach the character. First, several Marvel characters haven't even used their code names in the movies. Second, this incarnation of the Red Ghost could have more or different powers. Third, he'd be made more distinctive by emphasizing his super apes. Fourth, since the MCU has shown a desire to draw from its own continuity, the precedent of the Red Ghost could have been the instigation for the research that accidentally created the modern Ghost. slikmar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Liaden Posted June 8, 2019 Report Share Posted June 8, 2019 They were initially part of a Defenders story arc. The first group of Defenders, not the street-hero version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megaplayboy Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 Seems to be a rumor running around that the villain of Phase 4 may be Michael Korvac to be introduced in Captain Marvel 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher R Taylor Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 Be a short movie going up against Korvac. Heroes attack. Korvac wishes them away. Korvac drinks a nice cup of tea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korvac drinks a nice cup of tea I think the idea is that he wouldn't be as powerful at first, but would grow as a threat over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher R Taylor Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 Those 8 years under Clinton were rough on him Seriously, though the guy cast in the 1992 film was way young for a guy in his 60s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greywind Posted June 10, 2019 Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 Keep in mind, in the comics, Magneto was rejuvenated in the 80's. He was regressed to childhood and then matured to a man in his 30's. It was how he managed to dodge charges on a lot of his previous terrorist attacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Ghost and a moon shot would also allow Doom to be in the background, funding and/or feeding knowledge, in the hopes of ensuring Reed does not get there first.

Christopher R Taylor Posted June 10, 2019 Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 Well, and a private effort to fly to the moon is completely reasonable and topical today, given a comic book setting where money is no issue (how many times the GNP of the United States did Tony spend on Iron Man suits in IM3? How many fifty trillion-dollar flying aircraft carriers did SHIELD have?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted June 10, 2019 Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 Saw Dark Phoenix. It was one of the better X-films. Very well executed. A solid end to the franchise. No post-credits scene. Pattern Ghost, Toxxus and Bazza 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's enough alien crap laying around that a smart high school kid should be able to build a moon rocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zslane Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 Yeah, this is a blatant attempt to push Endgame past Avatar. Which is really kinda silly since total box office results should be adjusted for inflation, and before anyone tries to claim bragging rights to the top spot all-time, they have a little movie called Gone With the Wind to contend with.
