I can't believe they actually added Dane Whitman to the MCU! He was my favorite as a kid and I never thought I'd see him in the MCU.

George RR Matin was a hugggeee black Knight fan. So much so, he named a very important great house house Dayne. Notable Easter Eggs: Ser Arthur Dayne, the sword of the morning. His magical sword Dawn forged from a fallen meteor. Many fans believe Jon Snow will become the new sword of the morning. And of course, Jon Snow himself, Kit Harrington is playing Dane Whitman. Whitman is named after the comic publisher George read as a kid. Bunch more as well. Just a neat connection.

I love this! Just watched the Eternals movie and couldn't stop thinking about the assonance of Dane and Dayne, knowing RR Martin is a fan of Marvel I thought there might be something going on there. Thank you for sharing and confirming! Very cool.

I would've preferred a movie set in medieval times like an Excalibur movie, the way they did Captain America in a World War 2 scenario. The climax of the movie could've been a cool dragon battle, maybe even a post credits scene with Dr. Strange meeting Merlin. Black knight is basically a Hawkeye type character who uses ancient weapons when he should just buy a damn gun, but would rule in his own timeline.

Dane is Marvel's best character and I will box anyone that tries to argue this, I recommend some of the more recent stories he's had, the Frank Tieri run is AMAZING and the Si Spurrier run was Marvel's best book in 2021. Just a couple of notes: it's not Sir Percival, it's Percy. Also, all of Dane's horses are Tolkien references: Valinor, Aragorn, Strider, & Galadriel.

The final comment made is one that's true but unfortunate in my opinion that the comics follow in suit with the movies instead of the other way around. Not to say the movies are bad by any stretch, I just tend to prefer the comic lore over the MCU lore changes
