When you yell at James Gunn, this is who you’re yelling at.

They might not be raccoons per se, but the furry creatures at the heart of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 are pretty damn cute and a technical marvel.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is a gorgeous spectacle that confuses schmaltz for sentimentality

James Gunn’s third Guardians movie is packed with stunning set pieces, but its saccharine attempts at sentimentality and a by-the-numbers plot keep it from ever reaching lift-off.

Ms. Marvel’s (quantum) bangle might be the MCU’s coolest wearable.

With The Marvels’ new trailer comes a reminder that Ms. Marvel’s family heirloom — the mysterious bangle that unlocked her energy-manipulation powers — might just be the snazziest piece of wearable comics-inspired tech the MCU’s seen yet.

What If…Marvel’s new cosmically-powered Iroquois hero joined the MCU in season 2?

And then what if Marvel Studios made sure that the episode introducing Kahhori, the MCU’s new character who hails from the precolonial Haudenosaunee Confederacy, was “created in close collaboration with members of the Mohawk Nation” in order to make sure her debut was both respectful and authentic to Haudenosaunee culture?

You know, what if?

Jonathan Majors is ushering Marvel into its Kang era.

Jonathan Majors’ Kang the Conqueror may be Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’s villain, but in a new interview with The Washington Post, he makes it abundantly clear that his time-traveling character isn’t just a bad guy popping up in Quantumania and Loki. He’s the MCU’s new long-term Big Bad™ who’s going to make the Avengers sweat, and Majors wouldn’t have signed on if that weren’t the case.

Kevin Feige absolutely loathes the term “content.”

Kevin Feige doesn’t want people feeling like they have to study up on the MCU before they watch lore-heavy movies like the new Ant-Man, or to ever think of Marvel’s Disney Plus shows as just “content.”

In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Feige acknowledged that the studio’s gotten into the habit of putting out a lot of new series, and said that it plans to slow its pace down in the future so that each of its shows “get a chance to shine.”

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is your brain on Kangs

Watching the third Ant-Man film is sort of like being on a Marvel-themed acid trip that’s actually pretty fun until it comes to a confusingly abrupt halt.

Disney’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur is a slick, stylish break from the MCU and all its baggage

Disney’s brilliant new Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur cartoon has smarts, style, substance, and one hell of a musical score.

Raphael Saadiq wants Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur’s music to move you

‘When I watched cartoons as a kid, there was a lot of serious orchestration. A lot of funk, a lot of R&B, and a lot of soul — all kinds of different styles of music. I wanted that for Moon Girl, too.’

Marvel boss says people will never tire of Marvel films.

Kevin Feige’s job depends on humans not tiring of superhuman exploits, so what else is the guy who made saving Earth boring going to say?

Some good Snap juice.

As Ash Parrish describes this interview with Marvel Snap project lead and former lead designer of Hearthstone, Ben Brode.

Other than commenting on item prices and the upcoming PvP mode, he also discussed its rank system and how it delevels players every four weeks:

You know... I’ve never worked on a game that did not completely redo the rank system multiple times during live development. I imagine we will continue to tweak our rank system.

A new Ant-Man trailer will be revealed tonight.

Keep an eye on this page; we’ll post the Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania trailer once it’s available after premiering during the college football National Championship game between TCU and Georgia.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever marked the end of Phase 4 for Marvel’s exploding cinematic universe of movies and TV shows, and this flick will kick off Phase 5 before Phase 6 starts with a new Fantastic Four flick in 2024.

Update: And here it is, if you’ve missed it somehow.

Marvel Snap is kind of like a wild comic book story generator

Marvel Snap can’t quite write comic book stories, but it can give you the skeleton of one that’s perfect for fleshing out with your imagination.

The entire Spider-Verse wants a piece of Miles Morales.

The latest trailer for Sony’s upcoming Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is an undeniable thing of beauty that zips by so fast that it’s kind of difficult to drink in all of its details, and all of the new Spider-heroes set to appear in the animated feature. While the trailer featured plenty of Miles, Gwen, and newcomers like Issa Rae’s Spider-Woman and Oscar Isaac’s Spider-Man 2099, it didn’t spend nearly enough time with spiders like Pavitr Prabhakar, Daniel Kaluuya’s Spider-Punk. and Scarlet Spider Ben Reilly.

They’re all present and accounted for, though, in a new Across the Spider-Verse poster that once again makes it seem like every spider-themed hero in the multiverse is going to have it out for Miles when the movie drops next June.

Our first look at Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse swings our way on December 13th.

But Marvel didn’t specify whether we’re getting a trailer or some other type of preview, as it vaguely hinted at “a new view from across the #SpiderVerse” in a post on Twitter.

Marvel paired the news with an image showing Miles Morales and Spider-Gwen gazing at the skyline while hanging upside down. Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse (Part One) isn’t set to hit theaters until June 2023.
