Anyone else wish Marvel kept the RDJ Doctor Doom thing a secret?
Am I the only one who thinks Marvel completely blew what could’ve been the biggest theater reaction since the portals scene in Endgame?
Don't get me wrong, I'm hyped to see Robert Downey Jr. back in the MCU. But man, imagine sitting in the theater completely blind, watching the Avengers fight Doctor Doom, and then the mask finally comes off to reveal Tony Stark’s face. The absolute chaos in the cinema would have been legendary.Instead, they announced it at SDCC a while back, probably just to secure box office faith after a rough patch. So now, instead of enjoying a massive twist, we’re all just sitting here doing mental gymnastics trying to figure out how they’ll explain it.
Are they going with the rumor that he's a Victor Von Doom variant who just happens to look like Tony? Or is Doom actively manipulating an alternate Stark into thinking the 616 Avengers destroyed the multiverse?The Russo brothers said this is going to be one of the more mature MCU movies, so my expectations are still high. But I really hope RDJ’s star power doesn’t overshadow the character of Doom itself.What’s your take? Is this going to be a masterpiece, or is it just a massive multi-million dollar nostalgia trap? Let's discuss. 🍿
