Kevin Feige presented at Disney Investor's Day and showed all the logos. With Loki it had a pic too. With the context clues in the pic at least part of the time is going to be in the 1970's. Jaws on the Theater Logo and the 70's car, outfits and hair of the people.  |

With Wanda Vision reportedly taken place in the 1950's and what looks like Loki is going to take place in the 70's, Do you think that it's a result of EndGame. Some how messing with Time caused splits and Alternate Timelines?

I don't think it's confirmed, just the reported Rumor.

I don't understand the target audience for this show. It certainly isn't me. It kind of depends on the tone and plot I guess. If it's like Pleasantville the kind of Ironic look at the 50's. How the entire decade had the veneer of wholesomeness but it was covering up racism, sexism, fear of the other, mcartheyism, etc. I could get into that.

The entire series though?

I would assume 6 episodes. Still five hours too long to explore those concepts with these characters. I'm assuming it'll have a comedic tone and I feel like by episode two the 'fish out of water' humor is going to get old. Such an odd choice. I commend the outside the box thinking conceptually, but this feels like the wrong direction for these characters. I'm no television producer, maybe it'll be great. But this isn't what's going to get me to buy in to Disney Plus.

But this isn't what's going to get me to buy in to Disney Plus. Yeah I'm not completely sold on the idea, myself. And may not even be true. The stuff she was shown could've just been concept art/stylized environment taken from 50's not set in 50's. We got a ways yet before we see the direction. I'm kind of wondering why Loki looks like it's set in the 70's too.

On a related note (kind of), I'd love to see a series on The Twelve. It's about a group of superheroes from World War II who were caught in a stasis chamber and freed in modern times. They have goofy names and costumes, which is half the fun. All of the characters have fascinating backstories wrapped in mystery that are revealed slowly as they try to make their way in the modern world. It would make a better series than a film so each character can get their due (and honestly I don't see a huge cinema audience for this concept, anyway). It's probably too dark for Disney Plus, but I can dream.  |

It's probably too dark for Disney Plus, but I can dream. Never heard of them, but could work. I mean half of Captain America's charm is the dislocated sense and sensibility of the 40's in modern day. I've always said that Fantastic Four probably would work better as a series than movie. Still use individual characters in the movies here and there, but have their main story as a series. Not exactly like a Family Sit Com format, but something a little more intimate that can show the Family Dynamic of the team. I would love it if the Fantastic Four were set in the 60's in a similar alternate dimension (to explain why they've never been mentioned before) pulled into modern time. That way you can get away with a little bit of the hokey-ness of the team.

Dynamic Man was supposed to be the 'Man of the Future' but now that he's here, he doesn't understand why the world isn't a utopia. There are so many great ideas in that story, I'd love to see it come to life on the screen.
