It's low key adorable how Ted's expression, such as it is, completely changes when Elsa says his name. If they're following the comic book canon, he really only gets annoyed with evil people so she might've been safe. Also, Man Thing plushies would sell.

I only saw Ted for two minutes but I love him. Please Marvel, give us more Ted.

2:10 Ted's 'thank you' afterward made me smile.

I loved Man-Thing in this. Such a gentle giant. Not sure how he compares to the one from his own 2005 movie.

I love how expressive he is.

*Whoever knows fear **_burns_** at the touch of the Man-Thing!*

Love his expressions, the little grunts, the softening face when Elsa says his name, just fantastic

Normally when you take designs from Comics 100%, you risk them looking a little goofy in a grounded world. But I think Teddy gets a pass by virtue of him not being human and debuting in a monster movie style special.

Everytime the Man-Thing kills something, I laugh my ass off because of the trademark "Fear Burns at the Man-Thing's touch."

This actually looks visually amazing. Funny how some under the radar marvel special has better effects and cinematography than most of phase 4

I love him! And I love that they call him Ted! Especially since no one is exactly how much of Man-Thing is Ted, but there he is

I like it when good hearted beings like Ted wield great power. Definitely want to see more of him.

He has only 2 minutes of screen time, but PROTECT TED AT ALL COSTS! 🥺

I’ve wanted to see a live action Man-Thing for 10 years. Not counting the man thing movie fiasco. They nailed it! Best thing out of phase 4 thus far

Those Man things are between cute and creepy at the same time😂

The simple brutality they used to showcase Man Thing's power set was so powerful and brilliantly done. I'd rather get snapped than what Man Thing does to people.

My favorite boy is finally here!!!

He looks incredible

God he’s so adorable and amazing

Nice to see Man Thing getting the recognition he deserves now

We need a Groot and Man Thing team up movie ASAP

Man-Thing and Werewolf by night are my new Favorite Marvel Horror Characters now

They did a pretty good job in not only adapting this character, but also fitting him into this short film’s central theme of some monsters being people too (which is even more fitting for Ted considering he was actually human once in the comics, possibly still was in this continuity). It’s made all the more interesting that seemingly because of this portrayal of the character, I’ve seen more people refer to him as Ted rather than just Man-Thing (his human name is even in the title of this video). Here’s hoping that if they do another Halloween centered one-shot, it’s about the origins of Man-Thing, as the tragedy of Ted Salas’ transformation leaving him isolated and stripped of his identity could be a perfect contrast to showing him safe and happy with Jack as his one friend in a world he has no place in.

I’m glad they kept the design of Man-Thing accurate to the comics! Would’ve loved to see some bigger moth man like eyes for him though.

They nailed him! He looks perfect!!!

We need a Marvel Team-Up movie starring Groot and Man-Thing.

I've always loved Man-Thing, and I'm glad he seems to be happy living in the MCU. I'm glad he has a friend.

I love how he's gentle and scary at the same time Hope marvel makes a show of him

man thing waiting for Jack with some warm coffe and a pack of cards... dude is just wholesome

Yes!!! Its like a dream come true to Marvel horror fans!!!!!

Just, the moment when Elsa says Ted’s name is… *chef’s kiss* Her almost quizzical expression, the face drop from Man-Thing, the still nervous but accepting way Elsa just…goes along with conversing with a creature that could smite her where she stood. It’s goddamn poetry!

He may look like a monster on the outside, but he has twice the humanity than most others.

i didn't know Ted was chill like that, right on.

Best thing Marvel has done since EndGame. Absolutely amazing

Probably the most comic accurate thing we have ever seen in the MCU!

Man Thing was a creature that always terrified me as a kid-- like a folklore piece, he warned me of the consequences of being evil and abrasive. Then I grew up, and I saw him in live action. He was the gentle giant who punished those of wicked taste. It was kind of comforting, in that sense and another.

Man thing is such a gentle giant who wields so much power. ❤

While the cgi touchups on the practical effects aren’t perfect, I still love this man-thing.

Finally Man-Thing is now back in Live-Action!!

I’m glad to see people enjoyed this. I think they did a great job portraying Ted, especially in the color scene at the end

His little wave at the end, like "Thanks, Elsa"

Imagine having Ted as one of the boys. Shit would be so chill

Man-Thing’s not an enemy. He’s a friend.

Nobody told me there was new Man-Thing media. This is what comic derived content is meant to be like.

I thought he looked great during the show but when we saw them both in color at the end….man that looked real. Straight-up fooled me. Lots of charm…

Oh my God I love hw they did Man-thing in this XD one of my most favorite characters in the marvel line up. I hope hasbro makes a marvel legends of him an were wolf by night. For the MCU.

Jamm brought so much Life into His Animation and eyes and everything they did a stunning Job bringing him to life

"The Man, the Myth, the Legend!“ and its just their buddy Ted.

I wanna be a werewolf and have a big green swamp buddy as a companion.

"Whatsoever knows fear burns at the Man-Thing's touch." To be fair, he's not doing it on purpose, it's just a fact. He can't shut it off. I like this version better than the usual portrayal of the Man-Thing in the comics, where he's almost always portrayed as driven purely by instinct, with no real memory of ever having been Ted Sallis. In this version, there's seemingly some (perhaps childlike) fragment of Ted still in there. He responds to his human name, understand the things other people say to him (mostly) and seems to be capable of forming friendships and remembering interactions. It makes for a more nuanced character. Comics Man-Thing is usually more of a force of nature than a person with a character arc.

Ted is the best in Werewolf By Night.

THOSE WHO FEEL FEAR BURN AT THE MAN THING'S TOUCH- OUCH.

Whatever knows fear burns at the Manthings touch... and he make a good cup of coffee as well it seem.

This guy was on Sakaar! Literally I can’t believe this just passed over my head. Sure Ares and Beta Ray Bill but Man Thing?!

I love how can Ted be a brutal beast or a gentle giant they did an amazing job with him hopefully we will see him and Jack again perhaps in Midnight Suns movie.

Is about time they Man Thing in the MCU last time he was a monster villain in a horror movie under the same name I do hope Man Thing and Werewolf by Night team up again in the future with the Avengers or other monsters superheroes like Blade,Moon Knight,Morbius,Frankenstein's monster,and others.

I collected man thing comics. Nice to see him on the screen

I like how the black and white colors at the beginning highlight his facial expressions and eyes more.

Everything considered our big green friend looks quite good. I like the use of practical effects here.

He looked phenomenal, both design and execution. In the black and white scenes he sometimes looked a little artificial, but not enough to be distracting. In that full-color ending scene tho he legit looked real, you can almost smell rotting wood and swamp grass through the screen lol

im glad ted is alive.

Man-Thing! Ba-dun! Dun dun dun! You make my heart sing!

1:24 They got man-thing right it’s amazing that the cgi in this had improved here

This man-thing needs to become a TV show... some of the best cgi i've seen, and a cool character.

I been looking forward to seeing how Man Thing would look and he did not disappoint, ever since thor ragnarok I always wondered where he was and he looks amazing more I want to see more of Man Thing

so we got Thor Hulk, Rocket racoon Groot and now Jack werewolf Ted the man thing :3 u know they had something in common.. What a dynamic duo 🔥🔥

never read the comic book of "Werewolf at Night, " but along with Moon Knight, i really enjoyed these two Marvel works even more so for having no pre-knowledge or expectation about them. the cinematography and production design for Werewolf at Night were also top notch. I kinda hope Marvel might consider doing more of these under one-hour-length movies. too many series end up padding themselves to fill programming requirements.

I love how this thing has more personality and charisma than the entire CGI cast of The Lion King.

Can't believe how good man thing looks

The few minutes Ted is on screen are adorable and I like marvels take on man thing. Marvel, give us more Ted

Can we appreciate just how fucking violent him grabbing and melting people is in presentation? Like it would have been easy to just make an effect of people turning into ash, or catching on fire, or melting into goo. But no they really went for it, he grabs them with hulk-like force and they immediately burst into flame(not catch alight, burst) on contact THEN start burning and writhing in pain. I mean 1:52 like wow.

The multiverse implies somewhere, in some universe ManThing is actually a Man's Thing

Kang’s greatest weakness 🥰

I hope we're gonna see a Man-Thing Movie for Disney Plus.

Reason why Man Thing is called Ted is because it was a scientist called Ted Salas who worked on a version of the super soldier serum and have injected it on himself but he crashed into a swamp and become that

I love Jack and Teds relationship it's true family might be annoying but at the end of the day you will do anything to make sure they are safe ❤️💚

Finally...A movie gets Man-Thing right!

1:48 when someone with cold hands grabs you

Really excited to see Ted in more movies.

The mcu need more horror-themed superheroes

I love that first hand scene , I didn't expect Ted

Angy Manthing Face: 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 *"Ted?"* Confoosed Ted Face: 🧑‍🧒‍🧒

As a long term M-T fan, I like what they did here. It's all too easy for him to become a two-dimensional tool used by the writers, or other characters in the story, to kill at necessary points in the story, a bit like a mummy arriving and doing the killing in horror films. As such, he can be almost an absence of character - an emotional reactor to events only. In this story, by giving him the ability to understand friendship and loyalty, it gives him a little more rounded humanity, makes him seem more real, and even allows for humour. A TV series or a film with the character portrayed in this style would be a must-see for me. :-)

Marvel nailed it with this one. I wish other mcu stuff was this amazing!

People like to shit on phase 4, but we can all agree that Werewolf By Night is great.

Man-thing in werewolf by night:🙂 Man-thing in his own movie:🌚

1:53 "Whatever Knows Fear Burns At The Man-Thing's Touch........ouch"

werewolf by night is the most under rated Marvel movie, its the best marvel movie since infinity war

Man-Thing is a national treasure. God bless him.

Man-Thing/ Ted Sallis was a failed scientist devolved from his attempt to recreate the Super Soldier formula, a bit more expressive than comics. His late wife was an AIM spy who was killed in Iron Man 3

FINALLY a great looking Man Thing! He needs a much better film than the 2005 abomination.

at first I was like "oh cool, a new vintage-style horror movie" then I looked in the comments and found out this is Marvel and now I'm like "oh"

The first time I looked at Man Thing's design, I thought he was some kind of "swamp elephant". But now, I think he's scary and awesome.

I did not expect to see him in the MCU. They’ve done an amazing job. I wish there was more stuff like Werewolf by Night instead of…whatever it is Marvel does nowadays.

Remember MCU fans Ted (Man-thing) was a champion of sakaar

he who knows fear. burns at the touch of the man thing.

2:11 "Okay"

TED!!! Seriously, how can you not love that face??

Gael Garcia Bernal's performance as Jack Russel was great. He doesn't come across as some superhero - just a normal dude.

1:51 - "Whatever knows fear BURNS at the Man-Thing's touch!"
