I’m so happy to see that a lot of people loved The Marvels as much as I did. And after the ending of the movie, I was so excited for what comes next. I’ve been waiting for a Young Avengers, maybe with another name, project for so long. I think the timeline placement you put it in makes a lot of sense. It’s a bummer that we won’t get another timeline book for a long time, but I’m so happy that you are here to warm its place.

this film got so much hate, but it was incredibly fun. i physically jumped out of my seat in excited in the cinema when i saw beast, as he is in my top 5 favourite x-men

Iman Vellani needs her own movie. With a good story and good writing she’d become a massive star overnight . She’s got the it factor

Kamala recreating the scene from Iron Man was so epic to me. Kinda shocked there was no reaction to this in my theater LOL

One of my favourite things about the film was that the main characters always took whatever situation they were in seriously - it proved you could have a funny/silly Marvel movie without having the characters acting stupid to manufacture silliness (like Thor riding Stormbreaker like a broom, or Drax and Nebula turning lying on a couch or opening a door into a painful 2 minute skit)

After watching the movie, I couldn’t help but feel like it would have been largely improved with one small change… replace Dar Benn with Yonn Rogg. Very little would need to be changed with the overall script and it would immediately give the villain more history. Also, bringing back Jude Law would’ve been a great move.

So Carol is basically a Disney Princess now right lol? This movie was a lot of fun, with Kamala/ Ms. Marvel being the highlight. Her pulling a Nick Fury on Kate at the end was hilarious, and I swear her wearing the baseball cap is a riff on how Kevin Feige is always wearing a baseball cap.

The Marvels was a lot of fun, all three of the women had great characterization and performances, and who can complain about musical numbers and cats? Definitely recomend it.

Would love for you to be able to do this full time in the future! It's only a matter of time with this quality of content :)

I watched The Marvels yesterday and had a blast. I described it to my friends as "Marvel Studios presents Grease: The Musical" in that the characters and their relationships to each other is more interesting and entertaining than the plot of the film itself. This was Brie Larson's best performance as Captain Marvel and finally made we feel like I understood the character of Carol Danvers rather than Vers. All three heroes are treated as competent and effective which is really important for a shared universe, because what Marvel does not want is to say one character or merch is cooler than the other, they want all of them to make money and have fanbases. I hope this film does well on Disney+

I overall liked the film, curious to know how far this takes place since Secret Invasion with Fury being comic relief

Loved this film and the post-credit scene put such a huge smile on my face. I kind of knew what was going to happen because It was spoiled on a different YT channel...but I had no clue that character was going to be in it, which BTW is my favorite character in the comics... and they were played by the OG, felt so good to see it.

Here’s my two cents: - This movie was not terrible I feel like most people need to chill especially that manosphere echo chamber. - Was it the greatest of all time? Absolutely not, but was it at least decent and enjoyable? I say to some extent I honestly thought it was boring in the second half of the movie - The best thing about the movie I like was the chemistry between the three titular headlining stars I think it made for an enjoyable experience and dynamic. - Another thing about this movie that I can say I never seen before has to definitely the teleportation fighting effect. I believe they show that off really well and hope we can see more of it in the future

“If you’ve already seen it, go see it again.” Taking this to heart as I prepare for my 8th viewing this afternoon 😅

Really love these breakdowns and the commitment you have to the timeline. Marvel needs to hire people like you and the wiki-crew to do their timeline 100 percent. I am glad they added the “peace talks” line to the finale of secret invasion to at least acknowledge this movie. And I jumped out of my seat when Kate bishop and beast appeared on screen

I appreciate that you always have something positive to say man. Thanks for another great video!!

I really liked the movie!! And I hope it does have legs in the box office. Thanks for all your hard work once again! Love the videos

I absolutely loved this movie, connects so many loose threads (ms marvel, wandavision and even hawkeye), phase 5 has not had a single bad one yet (maybe antman but i still enjoyed it)

Had a good time with this movie! Little things that are lingering on me- would had liked the training montage to be longer and develop the team's chemistry and build comparable skill set- especially for Kamala. I am happy there wasn't some weird tie in from Gia since technically she has Cpt. Marvel's light powers from the harvest as well... bullet dodged!

I honestly don’t understand the amount of hate this movie got, i thought i would hate it but i really enjoyed, such a solid film

that post credits scene is so cool. Secret wars can’t come soon enough

I really appreciate all the work you put into your videos. I’m always excited when you upload so I can listen to your big-brain breakdowns of all the MCU projects. Can’t wait for what you cover next.

Loved the Video! We need more content like this on KZfaq!

25:18 The fact that Memory from CATS was playing in the background was not only hilarious, but I thought I had a double meaning there somewhere

Love your channel thanks for all the effort you put into these videos!

I loved this movie. No idea why people trashed it so hard.

I really like how the bangles could explain how the Kangs were able to travel through universes before the war given the fact that they were not linked by an original timeline!

been waiting for this forever! glad it’s here

I loved the movie! So much fun and really enjoyable ❤

Just left the theater after watching The Marvels - my dad and I loved it! It was so entertaining and Kamala and her family were our favorite part. They were so funny! The hate is so overwhelming and we simply don't see what was so bad about the film. Loved it and can't wait to see the X-Men again 😤🔥

Iman was so freaking adorable in this! Love her!

The movie was so fun i feel like it's the type you could watch whenever

Thanks for uploading this been feeling not been feeling well again within a week 😩

“We have our heading!!” - Kamala quoting Captain Jack Sparrow

I just saw this movie this saturday. I had no expectations because of the bad press. Actually I was pretty surprised how good it was. I don't give scores but I would say 8/10 if not better easily. Ms Marvel made me laugh everytime I saw her. So good.

I very much enjoy this movie, it was fun! I do wish the movie was a little longer so Monica, Carol and Kamala could interact more with each other like the training montage being longer and then just talking a bit would be nice. But anyways! Love your breakdowns as always!

Fabulous film. Deserves much more love than it’s getting. WRT to the timeline, I don’t think this is December 2026, but much more likely November 2026 immediately after Secret Invasion. My only evidence that the month is November is that there’s no cold weather clothing at all in the movie. Anyone that’s ever been to New York & New Jersey in December knows that it’s hella cold (even with climate change/global warming). Her father spends the whole movie is a sleeveless sweater for pete’s sake!!! It’s definitely NOT December 2026.

I wish that first act was just 25 minutes longer

Dar-Benn was actually willing to relocate the Skrulls before stealing their atmosphere. She wasn't planning on killing them until Carol showed up and she thought they were working with the Annihilator. That's when she decided to go ahead and kill them instead of relocating them first. I thought it was interesting that they called the bangles Quantum Bands, seemingly doubling-down on the idea that Kamala's time travel was quantum time travel. I don't think it makes sense to call this an incursion. We're told that an incursion is when the boundaries between two universes erode, and they collide with one another and one or both are wiped out. That's not what we see here. The two universes exist next to one another, but there is no collision. The walls of the universes aren't eroding; a hole was just punched into the wall of the universe, and then that wall was restored. Neither universe collides with the other, and neither universe is destroyed. So it doesn't meet any of the definitions of an incursion. There's also Dar-Benn who says 1995 was 30 years ago which also points to a 2025 placement, but of course with big numbers like that it's easier to say it's a rounding error. Personally I prefer keeping all of the projects in 2025, but I realize the issue that raises with Guardians. However, there's nothing in Guardians or the Holiday Special that would prevent us from placing them earlier. The only reason we place Guardians Holiday Special in 2025 is because 2024 already got a holiday special in Hawkeye. But it's possible that Hawkeye and Guardians Holiday Special both take place in 2024 and then we don't need Secret Invasion to be all the way out in 2026. Then everything would fit perfectly... except debatably the reference to Cassie since it wouldn't make much sense for Kamala to be considering her for the team unless Quantumania has already happened, and if we move Quantumania back to 2025 then Cassie's age potentially becomes a problem (unless she wasn't 10 during Ant-Man and the Wasp or we place Ant-Man and the Wasp in 2017 instead of 2018).

I really liked The Marvels! Way more than I expected! It seems like most people who have seen it also liked it a lot, while others just flat-out refuse to see it. I agree with your comparison to Elemental (which I still haven't gotten around to watching, even though I've put it in my watchlist), that hopefully it's another movie that will at least gain popularity on Disney+ after people continue to talk about it. Great points about the timeline placement! I couldn't remember how old Kate Bishop was in Hawkeye, so it's pretty cool the movie fits right into December 2026 because of her age. I totally didn't notice that alternate (X-Men) Maria was wearing two bangles! This makes me even more excited about how the X-Men will get pulled into the MCU from that universe, and how the Kangs will get involved, especially if the bangles are Kang-tech as you suggested... and if the Ten Rings will also be connected, etc. Carol said she hadn't seen anything like the Ten Rings when she analyzed them, but now that she's seen the bangles, I wonder if she'd find any similarities. One last thing: Flerkens obviously live way longer than cats! Goose has to be AT LEAST 37 years old! (We saw him in a 1989 flashback in Captain Marvel, and we now know from The Marvels that he wasn't blipped.)

I love your channel, and this movie. So, I am so, so glad you liked it.

I really enjoyed the Marvels aswell! I love the dynamic between the 3 of them and Iman Vellani is one of the best castings in the mcu. The villain wasnt great but i had a fun time!

I liked this movie a lot. Might be crazy ro say but i think i like it better than Guardians

Man, being member for the best MCU youtuber out there is a no brainer! Easily one of the best channels on the site. I really really love for the marvels, definitely better than the first in my book. Iman really deserves a season 2/movie after she's done with Young Avengers, shes easily the best addition the the MCU since Boseman. Kind of funny how little this and secret invasion connected - I really thought they woudve been more intertwined!(not that I really care, secret invasion really wasn't a favorite of mine!)

Finalllllly saw it! HAD SOOO MUCH FUN. Love it

I had a great time at the Marvels which makes me question how much people let their own opinions get in the way of just enjoying a movie. It’s not perfect but it was a joy to watch. I do think the age of Ms. Marvel is a bit odd but I just assumed she’d been working on all those drawings for a while. Love the content and that you reply to so many comments.

always love it when ABOE uploads. currently cooking chicken and gonna watch this whilst cooking :)

It’s one of Marvel’s best 2nd sequels and definitely one of thier most entertaining 😆 it’s kinda crazy how much negativity is actually about its box office and internet hate, then the actual film.

Loved it man! Thank you. You must be busy with the way everything came out. I liked the movie, my wife loved it. So far reports from others are that they liked it. Didn’t love it. Plenty of spots to poke holes but definitely not fair that some channels are just destroying this movie. Not necessary. Definitely an enjoyable movie. Overall I wish they gave us another 20 to 25 minutes to better develop some of the story lines. A little slower with some scenes would’ve also been easier to follow

Its also possible that Kamala was 16 whenever she drew her comic. She just never updated it. Great video as always!

A good detail is that I think the black dude that informs Fury of the eggs is Asgardian or from other of the 7 realms (besides Midgard/earth) he swears saying "Svardelheim" and says to Kamala's dad he is 500 or 300 years old iirc

I'm totally in Pre-Secret Invasion placement tho. I think is just a couple of months after MsMarvel, even Samuel L Jackson said otherwise. We'll see when they realease The Marvels in Disney+ I guess Great video as always✨

Best mcu lore channel.

Calculating Kate's Birthday was cool!

Ready for Photons full potential, seems like Binary will teach and help her through it

Your breakdowns are so good, again I admire the respect u bring to these works! They're goofy, they're sometimes genuinely crappy (am i the only one who noticed Carol doesn't have floaty space hair anymore? how could they forget to put that in?) but they're still works of art! Also love that you point out all the bi/homo subtext they gave Carol. Not as much as in her first movie but less subtle than that, too!!

As soon as I came out of the cinema I was waiting for this Video!! I just couldnt place it

Wow I just thought I wonder if you’ve made a video and I searched it up and I’m first haha

I honestly had so much fun. It was a fun movie, and so rewatchable. I would put it at the same level i put age of ultron, in the sense that i don't think they're perfect movies but they're freaking fun and so rewatchable. It honestly was good.

Rather than the Skrulls being kicked off of SABER, I'm headcannoning that some Skrulls left to settle down due to the peace talks, and the rest are blending in on the station as more humans and other aliens join to fill the void left by old Skrulls leaving. There's no evidence for this at all but I just like it

Fun Easter egg re: Kate Bishop- her birthday would make her a Sagittarius aka the Archer of the zodiac :)

Thanks for the video!! How many years was Monica with Fury between Wandavision and The Marvels? Just trying to figure out how long she had to practice using her powers :)

I agree that facts wise it makes more sense to be after secret invasion but tone wise it makes more sense to be before

Even do I think this is one of Marvels lows, I still had fun with them. Nothing wowed me but it was not terrible. I can see why some love this movie. Kamala and Monica carried, love them.

What i understood about the Quantum Bands/Bangles is that both working together allow these time/space jump points to extend to other universes. If it's Kang tech, it would make sense why he would want the ability to travel across time and space within one universe (using one band) and the multiverse (using both). I really enjoyed the movie and there wasn't inherently anything wrong with it. And even though i also enjoyed that it was a quick, straight-to-the-point action flick, i can't help but feel like it could have used more. 7 extra minutes dedicated to seeing Hala's strife (thereby further solidifying Dar-Benn's motives), Carol actually attempting to help Hala after knowingly causing it such destruction, something like her attempting to jumpstart their sun but failing, and finally, having Dar-Benn USE both bands to fight the Marvels before trying to open the portal, giving Carol a chance to use her full strength and go full Binary to push Dar-Benn out before she opens the portal. And the musical planet was fine but I would've liked it a lot more if they went one step further and made the singing alien-like, not straight out of a Disney movie. It would have elevated the weirdness of the movie. Overall, still very enjoyable.

First off, shocked at membership addition. My first guess would be November 2026 because I don't get a December/Christmas impression from when we're on Earth. I actually forgot we've heard nothing regarding SWORD. As far as the staff, we know at least one isn't Human given the guy's age. I don't however think the Bangles are Kang tech but they are called Quantum Bands. I also won't drop that Kree sleeper cells line either! Will say I loved seeing Monica's powers in action properly and of course Iman is just so good. But even Brie stood out in this movie for me. Speaking of the Skrulls ... oh boy. Wonder how the world's militaries will react to New Asgard having Skrulls. And yeah the team line was in the movie. The entire baby Flerkens eating people like some kind of horror movie was priceless. I knew I saw a black hole! Honestly I thought the Khans were moving into Monica's home but this makes more sense. There is the interesting tid bit with Maria having her universe's Quantum Bands too. The other universe is not 838 but I don't think it's the Fox universe either. I didn't consider a 97 universe. I do think this MIGHT be the universe Wolverine is from in Deadpool 3 however. Ah now I see why the 16 thing doesn't make sense. It's possible the 16 age is just referencing when she got her powers and such. But yeah hope they fix it then.

Already seen it twice and tempted to see it a third time

I’m annoyed with the folks saying “what does this have to do with Thanos?” Like BRO Thanos was Carols last big enemy . Thanos also sent Ronan after the infinity stone which lead to his demise and left the Universal Weapon open for the taking or it was reconstructed . Darben also believed she was being noble for the sake of her people . She didn’t desire power . She was already the leader of her people and wielded a powerful weapon . Also in the Krees eyes Carol was the Villian . This does make Darben more compelling and similar to Thanos. Where Thanos wanted to preserve resources Darben wanted to replenish Hala’s resources . Like why are these nuances and writing techniques so hard for people to grasp . Yes some of the stuff was rushed but there was a clear direction and a clear effort to make this digestible for the general audience with Easter eggs and referenced and events to please hardcore fans and folks eager for the multiverse narrative to move forward .

First off I really enjoyed this. Not the best by any means but I had fun with this! Seeing it again this weekend. I do have an observation. I keep my ear to the ground (i.e. I read Marvel Studios Spoilers Reddit) to keep up on rumors. When I sit down to the movie,I set everything I may have read aside and just soak in what Marvel has for me. But I do remember that the Kamala and Kate Bishop scene WAS rumored to be one of the post credits which tells me that they moved it to the end of the film instead. Why does that matter? Because if that scene is a post credits, it doesn't have to be happening in the same time frame as the rest of the movie. Therefore Kate can be 23 IN THE POST CREDITS. It might have been months later that Kamala went to her. And it may be irrelevant because them moving it to pre-credits might send a message that the Studio intends it to happen almost immediately. I'm just raising the possibility. Love the breakdown regardless! Another thing I noticed, it's really subtle but when Kamala sees all the information SABER has on her, her family wants to know "Is she under surveillance?" Fury says "Surveillance is a strong word." This confirms something I suspected for some time. Fury controls Damage Control. It's part of SABER. I don't know why they felt the need to create SABER to do the same thing that SWORD does...unless SWORD is more directly under the control of the U.S. government while SABER maybe is run internationally (just a thought!). Lastly taking Droge's Refugee Skrulls to New Asgard makes perfect sense. Love And Thunder showed us lots of non-Asgardians live there so it's like a sanctuary city and it probably has diplomatic immunity so Ritson can't threaten them! Keep up the good work!

The secret invasion show and this movie also set the stage for an Avengers level Secret Invasion event

They did kinda explain why she had to be in the other side: she said it had to be the same amount of energy on the other side of the tear

I still think that Echo Season 1 takes place during March 2027, so that means it takes place after The Marvels, which had Kate Bishop who showed up during the post-credits scene to meet Ms. Marvel!

I loved this movie. One can’t say Brie Larson or Captain Marvel didn’t show any emotion. I think was the best movie for her so far! I loved nearly everything about it, I just wish it was longer

I don't love it being December but it is the only possible way like you said. But,I think it could work as this could further fulfill the need for the council of Kangs to act now,after the possible incursion. Granted that's if they want to continue that storyline

I thought those flerkin eggs looked like brains. I was grossed out initially.

Brie is such a perfect Samus! I really enjoyed the new take on her character ☺️

Heard all the negative stuff so I went in expecting to be disappointed but I really enjoyed the movie. It was a breath of fresh air and it was fun. You can tell that this movie isn't for the fans still hung up on end game. And thanks for a positive review and breakdown.

This was a absolute great movie. I loved it I took a few kids with me. The kids said this is the best Marvel movie of late. My issue with Marvel is this constantly shifting of direction. Roumers of them going away from Kang to Doom. I can't keep up with investing my time and money and it's all for nothing.

Hey . I found a HUGE EASTER EGG no one is talking about upon a second viewing . The black assistant to Nick Fury on Saber, He’s from the Shi Ar Empire. When he discovered Goose’s egg he proclaims “SWEET VOLTAR” . He also mentioned he is over 300 years old . Man this movie is actually FIRE and I know it will age well . The Shi Ar Easter eggs connect the McU to the 90s X Men animated film. This movie is low key very x men and annihilation wave centric . It sets up the cosmic side of Marvel so well. I think it suffers like Quantumania in that regard where both films are actually extremely smart but because they live by the set up they lack the isolated story some people want.

I really love the movie, I enjoy it so much and have so much fun!!!!! I'm so so excited for the Young Avengers, I think that Kamala and Kate are the perfect "first" Young Avengers And Kamala as Nick Fury is soooo cool, Iman must be so happy she's living the dream!!!! And OMG I didn't notice that Binary has the bangels! It definitely blow my mind 😮 I guess that I have to see the movie again 😌😎 Thank you so much for the breakdown I can't wait for the upcoming theories and the timeline to keep making sense 😂🎉

Throughly enjoyed the movie and your breakdown obviously, it’s everything I wanted ! The visuals were out of this world! Placement wise, I really think this is before Secret Invasion, I don’t think Captain Marvel would put Valkyrie in a situation with the all off world entities that are “enemy combatants”, and its directly after Kamala Khan. You definitely made some points that make it fit after Secret Invasion. Can’t wait to find out in 3-4 months

What happened to the second bangle? When she gets off the spaceship at the end shes only wearing one.

This movie is way overhated, that first big action scene especially was amazing

I also thought about Binary opening another hole to send Monica back to 616, but what if it's the same case as MoM where they couldn't help Strange and America because they could cause greater evil? Maybe they would realize that it is dangerous to go around causing incursions just to send a person to a different universe and they would keep Monica there to avoid doing more damage to the multiverse

Doesn't one of the space crew claim to be 200 years old? That must be a skrull just looking like a human

Kind of confused as to why Jimmy Woo's page on the MCU wiki has no mention of him appearing in the movie? Did something happen recently where Randall Park said he wouldn't be appearing in the movie?

will you be doing a video on the Madame Web trailer? :)

Ill admit im not the biggest fan of the 2026 placement im a big proponent of 2025 right after ms marvel due to some ages mentioned but i can see all your points. Great video man!

I think most people giving out about the Marvels didn’t see it

It’s good and funny I Enjoyed it

Right!! It was fun! Nonsense…. but a fun ride.

I haven’t seen it but I’m going with a few friends later this week. Ive spoiled myself with this but I’m still gonna go see it now 😎

No one is talking about when Kamala used her powers without the bangles near the end. I can’t remember for what but it’s when Dar Benn has both of them. Also did Captain Marvel end up with the second bangle in the end because I don’t think Kamala kept both (she should have), this means Captain marvel is even more OP now?

Though doesn’t the marvels have to be after Ms Marvel because is the Ms Marvel post credit scene is in this movie with Carol going through the door in her room?

People need to watch this movie it was a fun blast!

Will be seeing this movie tomorrow! After that I will return with my thoughts.

my biggest problem is that it's clearly been gutted in the editing room, probably because they didn't have much faith in it so they tried to make it as short as possible. might be reaching tho.

Just spitballing, what if Secret Invasion is actually in November 2025. Then The Marvels could be spring of 2026. Then the Ms Marvel timeline works, the foliage works and Kate's age works. I can't recall your 2026 reasoning off the top of my head but I feel like this would fit everything else.

To me this movie just happened, it wasn’t as bad as everyone says it was or that I originally thought it would be. It had some good moments and made me love Iman Vellani as Kamala even more than the series. However Dar Benn was one of the worst MCU villains. Excited to see what this means for the future of the MCU
