Wasn't Howard the Duck in the first Guardians of the Galaxy film? He'll be showing up in this caper

But the thing is Those movies were building towards a completely different villain than doomsday has, Because it was building towards a movie that didn't happen?

I'm going to have AI watch it all for me, like a good modern student.

The only issue I have is that my tweens will definitely see Doomsday, but I don't think I want them watching any of the Deadpool movies to properly prep. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love them, but they ate rated R for a reason.

Or you could watch any one of the ten thousand YouTube videos titled "everything you need to watch before you see MCU: Doomsday", that are about twenty minutes long and cover everything.

Pfft... Really. 😂 No. 🤣

I'm a little proud of myself for how much I don't give a shit about this movie.

Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Soz.

No I'm going to be touching grass and watching dune 3 instead of marvel slop

Counterpoint: Go fuck yourself

I'm very much not into the detail of MCU, and things like this are why it will remain that way.

They really released homework for a movie lmao

well played

A better list, for inquisitive minds longersky.com/2025/01/16/a...

Ugh Ive already seen all their movies and shows multiple times. I’m good now!

Not only no, but Hell No.

lol wow fuck that

If its gonna be made out to be homework, then imma treat it like homework and say I dont wanna do it.

“Hey remember how no one likes really anything we’ve done since Endgame? Well here is a list of all the dumb shit we’ve put out since that you need to watch in order for this to make sense”. Lol, get a life Marvel.

If your new film requires to watch a bunch of stuff in order to understand it, then you didn't do a good job.

Light work

Shit like this is why I never took to freaking superhero comics, because everything felt like homework for everything else.

yeah, yeah. he was dead, yeah.

I’m just gonna listen to Operation: Doomsday for the millionth time and call it a day

ngl this seems pointless for a variety of reasons

when does the comic-book-nerd demographic die off? Asking for a friend...

Wow, the replies. You don’t have to watch them guys, it’s just a bit of fun. Social media has created an entire online “whinging fucking assholes” class.

Or I could just not watch it at all

I had seen folks riffing on this, and thought it was just a joke someone had made up. But no, the same event mania that made me give up on Marvel Comics decades ago is evidently now infecting Marvel Studios.

I would honestly rather kill myself

I've already watched all of these

I say this as someone who has probably seen all these movies and shows(likely more than once) THAT IS TOO MANY

I do think it's reasonable

I'm sorry, did you have an actual argument to make?

i’d rather be dead

Haha, no.

Yes but the people yearn to complain for no apparent reason

Hahahaha, lol No.

Haha, no.

Even if you want to be generous and say “well they recommend previous Avengers films so the 21 films leading up to Endgame are implied” Okay sure They’ve made 16 films since Endgame This list has eight of them

I am fascinated by the idea of a person who wants to see Doomsday but hasn’t seen any of the other movies. That this is the time to start watching superhero movies.

Ain't nobody got time for all that nonsense...

If your movie is this dependent on all this inside baseball knowledge, it's probably a hollow viewing experience on its own merits.

annnd done!

Nah son.

Because they're being removed from a profitable streaming catalog at the end of November?

I’d rather guide my father into my mother

Grease 2 was a bit of a surprise there tbh

I realize they mean well, but they are not helping themselves with this new assigning movie homework trend.

Related: I have no problem with watching the first 5 seasons of a show before I watch season 6

Asking people to watch Brave New World is actually evil

Marvel Studios is the only studio that has "required watching" for its stable. Which is understandable because its literally copying the comic book format. It is (was?) an outlier in the industry until they hit a Billion with each movie. Most studios still keep your stand-alone aesthetic.

Except these are comic book characters. And like they do in those, they use them to get people to buy as much as their stuff as they can offload. Wait an extra year and they will flog you off their anniversary edition of the movie and the graphic novel of the movie....

Forcing everyone to binge their post-End Game schlock to enjoy this new and improved with pre-End Game nostalgia schlock is quite the boondoggle.

ya'll should go watch Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma instead. now thaaaat's a movie.

Transformers Project Hail Mary The Batman Alien Sonic The Hedgehog 3 The Mandalorian Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem John Wick The SpongeBob Movie The LEGO Movie Sausage Party The Northman Predator: Badlands Avatar: Fire & Ash Reacher The Odyssey 9 The Crow Monsters vs Aliens Toy Story

I'll wait for the network broadcast where they rearrange all the scenes from all the movies to be in chronological order like the Godfather.

15 Leading Causes of Vaginal Dryness

The person that wrote this hates that some people watch and consume media different than them. We all asked for this you know. Just go to a wiki if you want to know. The rest of us have been watching already. Just like those of us furiously collecting comics.

No.

It says something about my "comfort viewing" habits, but the only one on the final list that I've only watched once was "Deadpool and Wolverine", and FF only got a second view because it popped up on Disney+ sooner than I expected.

I’m not doing homework for a movie for children

well, this is certainly a smaller list compared to the Miss Minutes video I've seen going around...

Or you could just watch Dune Part 3 which requires you to have watched 2 other great movies before. I only know about Doom from MF DOOM, I'm sure this movie version ain't gonna live up to that.

Can't believe externals didn't make the list lol /s

I've probably seen them, but this stupid. Bound to put casual viewers off. Doesn't Marvel like money any more?

I got rid of Disney+. Not rushing back.

What’s insane? Here are some things we think you should watch so the movie makes more sense? How dare they make a suggestion that’s completely voluntary.

I mean most of these people have already seen so its not as daunting as it seems

Seems fun as heck, actually

It’s like one a week. If someone wants to do that, why is that so terrible? It’s not like it’s 15 in two weeks. Also, why is you not wanting to do it the better option? People aren’t allowed to watch movies they like multiple times anymore?

It’s not that bad. I doomscroll 2 hours a day, so 2 hours a week is doable.

It’s just a fun idea for the ppl that want to get into it. I’m sure it’ll still be good if you don’t watch all that.

here, i'll help everyone get out of doing 15 pieces of bullshit homework: in the upcoming movie, doctor doom is the bad guy. that's all you need to know going in. i promise

…luckily the deadline to drop the class hasn’t passed.

Every new movie in the Marvel Comics Universe makes me less interested in seeing any movie in the Marvel Comics Universe.

lmao no

I loved it!

Lol yeah, ageed 🎶

I’d rather give myself a lobotomy.

This is a great way to get people to see your movie. Set them homework.

Yeah man I love doing homework for Disney

W

Making comic book movies like comics is going to put people off the same way the twisted continuity of comics puts people off

Oh wow, Marvel thinks its entire audience should pay again for every single film and TV show they've ever released? What a shocker. It's almost as if they enjoy having billions of dollars.

Listen,

They’re all Ryan Reynolds movies

Total Drama revival announcement be like:

...and the ending to a Season 5 Simpson's episode.

-She’s the He -Some Like it Hot -Dog Day Afternoon -Tarzan -Money Plane -The Sign of Zorro -Resurrection -Care Bears’ Big Wish Movie -Dogma -Galaxy Quest -Se7en -Wreck-it Ralph -MANK! -Tucker & Dale vs. Evil -Rankin/bass's The Flight of Dragons -I Wanna Hold Your Hand -Sonic the Hedgehog (all 3)

i'm ready to not give a shit (already done)

This is how Marvel eventually dies, because the new batch of kids is not gonna want to watch 15+ movies just to watch the latest blockbuster.

To think, you might miss out on the amazing plot

And you still can

One funny thing about this is that one of the Doomsday trailers is Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm basically giving us Victor Von Doom 101. Between that and the other trailers, it is quite clear what the general storyline will be.

I don't have any means to stream any shows or movies nor do I want to since all the money goes to crappy and evil corporations. Hard hard pass

Hot tip: Don't watch the film at all, wait for the inevitable "The Ending of Doomsday Explain!" Youtube video, and also skip that.

Everyone is reacting weirdly to the list that is basically "watch the old X-men movies, the Avengers movies, and then PLEASE watch all the new movies too! We promise they're relevant! We don't know why you all didn't want to see Thunderbolts but we promise it will be SUPER important!"

fuck that i'm going in raw

You'd have to pay me to watch Black Panther 2 and Doctor Strange 2 again.

I'll be doing just one thing before seeing Avengers: Doomsday: - living the rest of my life
