Marvel Studios' What If...? (Disney+) - Season 2 coming Dec. 22! Trailer out!

[jammindude]

The multiverse....all of reality as we could possibly know it.....is at risk of complete annihilation by a sentient robot with unlimited god like power. I need to assemble a team that will be able to stop him. How about....

...a Thor that has no sense of responsibility or seriousness at all
...a T'Challa who is a really nice and sweet guy
...a black panther that is happy to watch the world burn
...a very strong British woman.
...and one sorcerer supreme who actually might be able to help.

Yes...that is the perfect team. Definitely not a fleet of Captain Marvel's. Definitely not a Vision or Thanos from another reality. This is the right team.

Oh come on. I get the slight flaws, but it was more fun this way. Don’t lose the ability to suspend disbelief and just have fun with it. This wasn’t “Princess Leia force flying my way through space” levels of ridiculous. I thought it was put together rather well.

It wasn't so much about their strength or power but more about their experiences, such as Peggy knowing Natasha, or knowing there would be someone who would betray them to separate the stones from the Ultron body. And Thor's "Leeroy Jenkins!" into battle early was also probably foreseen by Uatu and part of his plan for this team. As Strange said at the end, Uatu saw everything and it turned out as he had seen.

I’m mostly just poking fun.

I enjoyed it a lot, but I’m not going to pretend it was better written than I think it was.

I finished the series.  It did turn out better than I thought it would.  I found myself actually caught up in it, surprised by a few things, stunned by a few turns, all the good stuff.  So huzzah for them making me care.

I still maintain that you had to swallow a lot of WTF to get to the point where it came together.  I like experimental stuff, media that tries something new and different, but the result still has to grab me on its own merits.  It's not cool just because it's edgy, different, experimental.  Those attributes will usually get me to stick around longer, but they alone won't win me over.

So somehow this is all canon, and there's already a second season coming.  Okay, we shall see.

I'm glad you ended up liking it (for the most part at least). And yeah, it's all technically canon, and I can see them revisiting these concepts/ideas in Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness next March, and possibly in Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania as well. I also wouldn't be surprised if they try to throw in some of these variants as cameos in DSITMOM or Loki Season 2. I'm sure Hayley Atwell would love to be a live action Captain Carter, and I bet Cumberbatch would enjoy a live action version of Strange Supreme.

Alright, saw the first 5 episodes. Really enjoying it so far, not at all what I expected.

Just watched the Making Of Documentary on Disney+  which dropped today. Very interesting insight into how they came about the idea with interviews with Kevin Feige, Jeffrey Wright, and the creative team behind the show.

There is also a bit of a tease about a plot point for season two (which makes sense given the post-credits scene from the finale of season one).
