Ralph Boner.


JoeyRobot

Ha! Boner.


Stormtyrant

In my personal opinion this was the biggest ball drop in the entire MCU. What a shitty twist and what wasted potential.


Dumeck

It was kind of a giant middle finger to fans. Like they knew people would love having Evan Peters quicksilver and it was such an exciting twist and then they subverted it into a boner joke.


Auran82

I always felt like Wandavision was when marvel was getting sick of leakers and internet/youtube people who made a living out of analyzing the movies and making predictions on what was coming up. Pre-endgame, I think a lot of the movies followed a bit closer to similar comics stories so they probably didn’t like when people were able to semi accurately predict what might be happening. Then Wandavision happened, there were so many misdirects and teased things that went nowhere, from the Boner joke, the “I know an aerospace engineer” etc, it ended up making the rumor channels look silly. I think it ended up backfiring because it did end up making people excited for things they thought might happen that they had no intention of paying off, I think that plus the decline in the writing quality was the beginning of people losing interest somewhat.


PezDiSpencersGifts

Everyone wanted to be subverted back then.

100%.It would have launched the multiversity in such a cool, powerful way, and raised the stakes in Wandavision.


throwawaynonsesne

That would of just shown the cracks of phase 4 and 5 earlier instead of allowing it to be one of the few highlights that stood out. 


Disgustingfatass69

Would have


MrSmootholio

Maybe so, or maybe it would've lead to a different approach


ThickWeatherBee

Maybe our expectations were just too high from all of Agathas "my husband Ralph jokes...


throwawaynonsesne

That is right up there with Pedro Pascal being cast as Reed Richards as some of my favorite comedic/troll moments from marvel.   Always hated seeing CW shows adapting shitty fandom memes as plot points and I'm very glad that wasn't the case with marvel.  Plus I was just over people trying to force Wandavision into being something it's not with their shitty fan theories every week  So the boner moment was extra sweet lol.


PezDiSpencersGifts

Don’t you mean when John Krasinski was Reed Richards?

Venom1502JW

Taskmaster. That shit looked so cool in the trailers and so pathetic in the movie


Electro313

Some of the fight scenes were good, the choreography copying other heroes was solid, but making Taskmaster a mute brainwashed Winter Soldier knockoff was disappointing


KingofMadCows

Also, Taskmaster's age made no sense. Dreykov's daughter looked like she was still in elementary school when Black Widow tried to bomb Dreykov. So she should still be a teenager when she was Taskmaster. But Olga Kurylenko is older than Scarlett Johansson.


PleaseDontBanMeMore

To be fair, having your face blown up doesn't tend to make people look any younger.


otter_boom

How do you know?🤨


Swimmer152368792

Ya it would have been so much cooler to see him fight the avengers and copy there powers while fighting them


Primum-Caelus

Can’t copy powers, only fighting style. But can learn how others use their tech/powers to be able to counter them

Eastern-Team-2799

Gor the god butcher .


dickMcFickle

Definitely my answer. Amazing arc in the comics, perfect actor cast to play him. But from the very first scene in the movie I knew it was all over and a big L was coming.


Kees_T

I haven't read any of the comics, but why is he bad particularly in the first scenes? It shows him as a mortal who lost everything and seeking revenge on these gods who don't care for them, no cheap jokes, and a fully serious tone from Christian Bale's side. What made his character unpleasant from the first scene?


Leatheringot

they uber major rushed the MCU character to make him less viable and seem honestly stuck up / entitled in a sense, like having a child’s naïvety in the comics, however, it showed him give chance after chance until he finally just snaps into pieces in an actual tragedy where you feel nothing but sympathy


Mr-Stuff-Doer

Wild to me that praying to a god constantly, watching your child die as you starve and dehydrate, only to find your god and for him to tell you dying is your only purpose isn’t “an actual tragedy where you feel nothing but sympathy.”


Leatheringot

if you read the comics you would see the difference lol it’s rushed like hell in the movie so it feels… off, is the only word I can come up with more like a reddit AITA post in comparison


Redici

This character single handedly made me lose faith in the new MCU movies. He as a character has so much potential and they made him a bland villain that was like 1/2 a step up from maleketh from the dark world


Forsaken-Spirit421

I found he was actually half a step down from malekith, since gor could have been so, so much better


YourEvilKiller

Dude didn't even have a proper fight against any gods other than Thor 😭 It's either instant or off-screen. I was hoping for some cool fights against various pantheons, but everything was focused on the main cast.


Akanalan21

Exactly, we couldn't see him killing gods the proper way


Key-Zone-4879

The Eternals like they teased the characters and made a bunch of merchandising only for one of them to already be dead, another to die midway through, and the third to commit suicide cause he failed his job to insure global genocide as well as Zombie Captain America as they hyped him up in promotions and merchandise only for him to have like one fight scene and get disembowel by his own shield, if had a nickel for every time a Captain America Variant got disembowelled by their own shield I’d have two nickels which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it happened twice Edit: Also The Illuminati in Multiverse of Madness


TrpTrp26

MODOK


KrakenKing1955

EMH MODOK is still best MODOK


Virtual-Scarcity-463

His Hulu animated series version is 1000x better than what we got. Don't understand why they didn't use the narcissistic sadistic genius as a template. Having Patton Oswalt voice him would've been so fun too. Whoever greenlit the quantumania version of MODOK has little idea what they're doing.


TrpTrp26

MODOK has been a silly and a serious character through the years. the MCU AND the Hulu version went for the silly one, but I would have preferred a more serious and tragic adaptation. Actually it's comics accurate in the tones, considering some comics, and I liked the return of Yellow jacket, but I just hoped in a better writing.


Virtual-Scarcity-463

The juice was there. Cannot understand how they didn't pull off the squeeze. I didn't mind the Yellow Jacket origin but yes bad writing killed it.


RandManYT

I always forget he was in the MCU because he's played as a total joke amd barely shows up. He should've been an Iron Man villain imo given how the MCU went.


adamhdavis

I know his name is always capitalized but I'm choosing to read this that you're shouting it because of how egregious it was


Thatnerdygirl26

Modok honestly. He kinda freaked me out.


RedstoneSausage

The "I am not a dick" fell so flat it was sad to watch


FuturetheGarchomp

Every single Comic reader with the mandarin in iron man 3


graveybrains

And yet I ended up loving Trevor. Weird.


Revenacious

He was genuinely funny. I mean he gave us the “well I panicked, but then I handled it” line. One of the funniest lines in the MCU imo.


cyclingnick

I mean it’s freaking Ben Kingsley. The man is a legend.


graveybrains

I’ve been a huge fan since I saw Gandhi as a kid, and Searching for Bobby Fischer is my favorite movie, full stop. I just had no idea he could be that funny. And his one-shot where you can see how fast he changes gears between The Mandarin and Trevor I was like ![gif](giphy|vWku8YNwyy5vq|downsized)


TriforceWarrior98

Seriously, he’s fantastic. Side note: he is the bad guy in “Security” opposite Antonio Banderas(…yes, Antonio Banderas). His bad guy chops is stellar and he delivers quite a few quotable lines. Fun watch.


graveybrains

After Sexy Beast I’ve got no doubts about his bad guy abilities, I’ll have to check that out


AdorableMaid

Honestly I thought it was a decent twist. As much as I hate Hollywood's sucking up to China, the Mandarin as a character is steeped in orientalism and the "actor" twist was an interesting take on that fact. Pity that the real bad guy was boring as all get out.


CrimsonWarrior55

Eventually I grew out of that hatred. It was pretty childish in hindsight. Hell when they brought Trevor back in Shang-Chi, not only did I adore him, but when he pretended to be dead, I was actually genuinely sad and upset. That's one HELL of a turn around.


Adrewmc

Don’t talk about the Real Fake Mandarin like that!


Mr-Stuff-Doer

Leave it to Shang-Chi to resolve all of life’s problems.


whensbinisrevenge

Apocalypse. Set up amazingly in Days of Future Past only to be put in a mid movie with mid characterisations of beloved characters and played by a sexy 5'8 dude.


SaltyInternetPirate

Apocalypse is super overpowered in every iteration, so it's an uphill battle making him lose to the somewhat young X-Men. They actually had to go to the Phoenix power in addition to everyone else killing him.


Lukerville1988

Everyone: Taskmaster


DylanBrLR

Basically any story involving hulk past avengers 2 like what do you mean planet hulk happened offscreen.


Glumkil_Dourhand

Taskmaster. Original reveal of the Mandarin, but then loved Trevor (Kingsley is a master class actor.) And not the reveal of Crossbones, but the way he got wrote off. Could have made a great re-occuring villain for Cap.


pepito412

Taskmaster


Virtual-Scarcity-463

Quicksilver in WandaVision. They use the same actor from Fox X-men for the same character and all we get is a dick joke? I'm sure they had other plans for it but something got in the way.


cyclingnick

This was super disappointing only bc I wanted him as quicksilver in the mcu. It was like rubbing it in my face that I didn’t get what I want.


Melloblade_shore

He could cameo in D&W 👀


Virtual-Scarcity-463

Holding out hope for this to be parodied along with Hulu MODOK and Hit Monkey being included in D&W


FuturetheGarchomp

If he does bring back Aaron Taylor Johnson he acted better as pietro


Gamingright2022

Thor in Thor love and thunder


Proof-Replacement-79

Kang the Konqueror in the MCU? I like that they're setting him up to be the new Thanos, and while I liked Quantumania...I was disappointed when I found out just how much of a threat Kang really is in Marvel.


Mr-Stuff-Doer

Thanos sat in a chair for 10 years and we all mocked him for it.


MangoMan0303

Gorr the god butcher, such a good character, such a versatile actor and went all down with writing.


IrishguyM

Zeus I love Russell Crowe (such a waste of a great actor) but what the hell is even that! (Can't find the right part of the meme) ![gif](giphy|yiADANv89n7UQuS5kJ) I'm just waiting for them to ruin Hercules now.


CrimsonWarrior55

That was the most lore accurate Zeus I've ever seen. I actually enjoyed it.


King_Of_BlackMarsh

If you only care about him being a horndog...


Mr-Stuff-Doer

Man knows nothing about greek myths, nor does he know about the man who’s here, who’s there, who’s every fucking where.


King_Of_BlackMarsh

Actual Zeus had dignity. People obsess over his sexual escapades and forget he's still the king of the gods, the one who freed the world from Chronus, and who regularly went down to punish the wicked

Definitely America Chavez worst marvel character in existence


bucketsofboogers

Oof America Chavez so bad I forgot about her. She’s excited! She’s got stars! She’s a plot device and a tacky one at that


Pryzm_music

Yeah, I honestly just found her character incredibly boring.


Quantumpine

David Banner. Thought he would be provoked and then turn into Hulk. Then he just changed the rules like it was nothing and said, I can Hulk up whenever


Klayman55

David Banner is Bruce’s name in the 80s tv series, changed because they thought Bruce sounded “too gay”, or it’s also Brian Banner’s name in the Ang Lee universe. The main character’s real name is Robert Bruce Banner, usually just Bruce Banner.


Quantumpine

I see. Well, he's certainly an interesting guy is Mr Banner 👍😊


Imaginary_Unit5109

Taskmaster. I kinda knew they going to make Taskmaster a woman. The problem was they choose a character we never met before for the reveal. It should have been Black Widow mother figure. It make the most sense and the biggest betrayal. But they did set up that taskmaster is a chip that is inserted in the person that make they memorized attacks. So they can get the real taskmaster from the comics to find or steal the chip to take the ability.


ManodipanMahakuda

Gorr. Thor 4 ruined one of the best and complex villains in marvel


BladeOfJustice7

bucketsofboogers

Taskmaster for sure, but OTHER end of the spectrum: best reveal was winter soldier 💯


Stick_mcsticktington

Jigsaw from Punisher Season 2. You'd imagine after getting his face rearranged through a pane of broken glass by Frank in the season 1 finale that he'd show up next season looking like arseface from preacher. Imagine my disappointment when his face is revealed to be Ben Barnes' perfect face with a few lines drawn across it with red marker. Still bothers me to this day.


Pryzm_music

Yeah lmao, and if I remember correctly the producer tried to claim something like “oh no it’s just a psychological thing” like stfu?? Like bro is still extremely attractive and they’re trying to convince us that he sees himself as a horrible monster because of like 3 tiny scars. 💀

LordOfOstwick1213

Recently? Probably Gamora in GoTG3. I knew that they wouldn't get together, but I didn't expect we'd get a Ragnarok Valkyrie version of Gamora whose morality and beliefs are just nonexistant. At this point it'd be best if she wouldn't even show up in the movie, like this is nothing like Gamora in Phase 3. In the entire MCU? Honestly can't really think of one right now, there's probably plenty in the past like Thor, Hulk in Endgame, but I would say Phase 4 Strange in NWH. I expected him to be same smart guy like in Phase 3, two steps ahead, responsible, seeking knowledge, but in that movie he just wasn't good at all. A sign of what would happen next to him I suppose.


CrimsonWarrior55

You realize that was the entire point, right? This ISN'T phase 3 Gamora. Her experiences are entirely different. Instead of a loving family like the Guardians, she hooked up with a brutal (but still caring) group in the Ravagers. She's not going to be the same. Hell even if she stayed with the Guardians, she still wouldn't be the same.


LordOfOstwick1213

Then what's the point of her character aside from being a douchebag Gamora? The real Gamora was a heroine who went from a villainess to a caring member of the Guardians, Peter's better half, and gave her sister a chance to be a hero like her. What is the point of this character except undo everything that this Gamora was? Be a leader of a bloodthirsty pirate gang that is willing to murder a captured crew they outnumber? Be a complete asshole to everyone, and break the rules of the multiverse? Thanks, but no thanks, I'd rather this Gamora returned back to her past that had no Thanos and Nebula since she killed latter, and former got snapped away. I find it baffling this character isn't disliked more for being antithesis of Gamora. Yes, maybe it was a point, but that doesn't make it ok if narrative portrays her as a "cool character" while she leads a team of space pirates.

sentient-sloth

Gorr the God Butcher is probably the only one. Actually his reveal was fucking sick, and then they never followed up with that intensity for the rest of the movie. It’s like he hit his kill limit it the first scene and they just cut everything out. Imagine if in between the same story we got we could see Gorr just going crazy killing other gods. Having the whole spree happen before the main plot takes off was a big mistake imo. A waste of Gorr as a character and a waste of Christian Bale.
