Now that Jonathan Majors has been found guilty of assault, and fired from Marvel, what happens to Kang the Conqueror? Where can they possibly go from here?
3:55 _"...if you just see him do nothing but lose... it builds up that picture in your mind that that guy is not a threat..."_ Pretty much exactly what they did with Kylo Ren.
@@dronesclubhighjinksThe Nahzgul effectively killed Frodo though with the long term repercussions meaning Frodo had to leave behind everything he knew and loved in order to survive. They also straight up killed Theodin in the end. Kylo...lead to the stupidest scene in Last Jedi and minorly inconvenienced the main characters occasionally. He DID Akbar in a blink and you'll miss it moment the movie doesn't even acknowledge I suppose.
Man, the other day, thinking about this aspect of the Kang character Kylo Reb came to mind too! The thing is there is an explanation within their respective movies of why they lost, because they were either injured or couldn't use their biggest powers (Kang can't move through time in the Quantum Realm), but as an audience that doesn't matter at the end of the day because you made clear the character is "defeatable" in their introduction. Same goes with 2017 Justice League and Steppenwolf. They made him look like a loser in the flashback. Unlike him, Sauron, though defeated in the prologue of LotR, it's made clear it was out of total luck and without that luck the guy can't be stopped. Going back to Kang, they should've come up with something different as to how they defeat him. It should've been the protagonists trying their hardest to escape from him, making it look like a proper suicide mission. If you don't set that tone, then he's just a normal threat.
I agree with Mauler. After Loki Season 2 I think they could completely abandon Kang and find a new villain... Was anyone REALLY looking forward to the 'Kang Dynasty' Avengers films?
Agreed. They could bring in a more known villain like Dr Doom. Granted, I still see Marvel struggling whatever direction they go. They got a lot more box office problems than just Majors.
Kang had little to no impact while in the MCU, heck venture to say 80% of the fan base probably had no idea Kang was the overarching villain for this phase to begin with. It would make sense to transition out of Kang to something more inline with Doom which would work better with the X-men reboot in the MCU along with Fantastic Four. They’re rebooting the MCU it makes sense to drop Kang
He was convicted of a phantom crime. Wtf is Drinker saying "the things he has been convicted of" lol, 3 degree assault in legal reality means they couldn't fry him like they wanted. Also, by law, you are allowed to use force to to retain your property when it is being stolen from you. But ofc they're not going to convict a small white girl of robbing a 6 ft 3 swole black guy. He was set up from the get up
I see three choices: 1) recast Kang (the most hilarious choice being Terrence Howard) 2) pretend there was someone bigger and more dangerous BEHIND Kang that is the real threat. 3) pretend all this Kang crap never happened and bring in a totally different storyline (most preferred choice)
Obviously the Kang character requires a bold and brave actor big enough to fill its shoes, so I'm calling it now... Disney announces Rachel Zegler as the new Kang!!! 😂
Oh yeah the french actor jussie smolier, the one fighting for justice and a Subway sandwich at 2am in freezing cold Chicago, while attacked by 2 maga tyrans from Nigeria 😂
You're absolutely right, because they never learn their lessons. They'll say something like "we heard everyone's complaints and so we've recast Kang as Marvel's first trans-supervillain which will be played by RuPaul". The issue is the people who run Disney/Marvel are as clueless as they come, and nothing will change for the better as long as the current leadership (like Kathleen Kennedy) are still in place.
They can just recast Kang, and I doubt any of their plans for Kang will need to change. I agree with Robert Meyer Burnett on his opinion of him as a villain. He was a Saturday morning cartoon villain in Ant-Man 3, and I don't expect anything less in their plans for him in the next Avengers movie.
Yes you are correct. Marvel just depends on actors too much. The MCU should be open for recasting ANY actor. Why! Because the characters are the thing. They had no problem hitting the eject button on Terrence Howard, and any other character should have been the same.
I think recasting a character and then pretending everything is the same is one of those things that fans consider really severe in anticipation, but then when it actually happens everyone just shrugs and buys into it with very little problems, as long as the recasting is reasonably similar looking.
@@Fe7Ace Most “normies” have already forgotten about Terrence Howard. I guess painting him as a greedy man helped. Just so you know, I personally think he was not “greedy.” And anybody else wouldn’t want to work for less than before. He got X dollars for Iron Man and they offered him X- dollars for Iron Man 2.
I really don't know why they are so terrified of recasting roles when it was so easy for them to pull off at the start of the MCU with Ed Norton and Terrence Howard. Worst case scenario you get someone in the role who isn't as good, best case scenario you get what actually happened with Bruce Banner and Rhodey continuing to have their story told in some great movies. They should've done this for T'Challa after losing Chadwick Boseman, and they should do it now for Jonathan Majors' character.
Imagine if instead of being defeated by ants, (dumbest "climax" ever), imagine if he had succeeded in killing Scott Lang in Quantumania. How much more impactful would that have been? Instead he was defeated by a teenager and a bunch of lifesized pests. *Edit* Comparatively, look at Thanos' introduction: In the first minutes of Infinity War, he singlehandedly subdued and killed multiple demigods and proceeded to manhandle Hulk, who was believed to be the strongest Avenger in the MCU at the time. Kang wasn't respected because he was dispatched like he was just another run of the mill bad guy, not the Boss level antagonist he should have been.
I do believe the original ending had Scott and Hope locked in the Quantum Realm. My understanding the planned ending was a lot darker than what was produced.
@@westside9032 All I'm saying is they built Kang up to be the next big bad, and he was easily handled. The variant said he had put down many rebellions, but a teenage girl and a bunch of ants outsmarted him in the most ridiculous way possible. Any threat he was supposed to represent was gone at that point.
Marvel is afraid to go darker in its bigger tent poles. Yes Iron Man and Natasha died but it was in the 2nd biggest movie of all time and part of the reason why it’s the 2nd biggest movie of all time. Or you can look at it as they will kill off or discontinue Iron Man, Cap, Black Panther and Natasha but not freaking Ant Man (who isn’t even the original Ant Man anyway!)
One of the best decisions was to let Thanos win in Infinity War, we all knew it would get undone but as an ending the snap was brutal and perfect in confirming him as that level of threat whereas Kang gets beaten by ants, imagine if he had won instead..would anyone really care if he had taken out the Pyms and maybe Sylvie in Loki too? Anyone? Bueller?
If he took out Sylvie in Loki, that would've been a great subversion of expectations and made people think "oh crap, this guy's *really* no pushover" Instead, season 2, everything's going according to his plan but the plan is kinda lame. To be fair, it worked except for the part where the *only* thing he didn't figure out was that Loki would actually work out how to *properly* take over
@@InfernosReaper yeah and I think if he did it early on enough it suggests that anyone can die, similar to how Thanos kills Loki himself at the start of IW, leading to more tension throughout a film or series.
And, although it worked out monetarily for them, one of their worst decisions was to not stop at the snap but to retroactively erase the stakes with time travel and quantum realm bullshit afterwards. That was the end of any investment in outcomes across any Marvel movie.
@@pringleton Yeah, either one of those things makes stakes matter about as much as they do with magic wish-granting balls, but *combined* they become the single laziest narrative option possible without outright calling it "deus ex machina" and completely eliminate all stakes *That* is the *real* reason why most people are tired of these super hero flicks. The lack of stakes and caring about continuity in the writing make characters and plot matter less than the Vindicators on Rick & Morty.
Peter Parker from the Multiverse was shown to have 3 different variants, all played by a different actor. So was Loki. It didn't make sense for all of Kang's variants to be identical in the first place.
You know, this comment made me realize what is different about MCU Kang from comics Kang. He is a time traveler and all the versions of him are just from different times, not universes.
@@santi_super_stunts2573 not as far as i know of Reverse Flash. There's only one, right? Kang has traveled time so many times and remained in those times, sometimes emerging as different personas, and there's a Council of Kangs to keep track of and tabs on them.
My prediction is they are going to take a page from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Remember when they set that little kid vampire up to be the big villain, then, Josh Whedon discovered that little kids grow up quick, and they couldn’t use the kid. So they just had Spike kill him. They will probably have that council of Kangs, and then Dr Doom shows up and kills every single one of them. Problem solved.
Imagine if the MCU actually made Kang a genuine threat though? And then introduce Dr. Doom a little later so we can have the most badass villain rivalry straight out of the comics. Too bad the MCU went out of its way to take the worst possible paths in a story.
@username.exenotfound2943 Good point. Where exactly is the Kang meeting hall though and how would Doom find it? ...and aware of the threat along with knowing how to end it?
A good example of a villain that is still intimidating but always loses is Ganondorf from the LoZ franchise. Even though he always loses in the end, they almost always make a point to show the effect he's had on the world at large. In OoT, he's the cause of the dark future you're trying to avert. In BotW and TotK, he's the impetus behind a lot of character deaths and Hyrule basically becoming a post-apocalypse. If Quantumania had gone beyond just saying "things suck now under Kang's rule", didn't saddle him with MODOK, and didn't have him defeated by ants, Kang might have actually had an intimidating presence in the movie
with all these infinite multiverses they could have shown some where Kang(s) had won and done some mega evil stuff, what better way to show the heroes the stakes by showing them their variants getting tortured to bits, manipulated to turning to the Dark Side, failing to protect earth, etc etc. They hinted at this kind of thing in Dr Strange 2 then just let it go, like, I know it's a stock standard Hero's Journey trope to be fighting not to let their shadow take over but it'd be better than the lameness of the Kang they served up instead, who's really going to miss the last we saw of him, the 19th Century Stuttering Clown Kang of Loki S2
*War Machine* miraculously changed his appearance without an explanation. *Bruce Banner* miraculously changed his appearance without explanation. One of two things will happen: *- Kang the Conqueror* will be killed off. *- Kang the Conqueror* will just be recast without explanation.
Banner and War machine were recast back in the days when MCU did not hold the weight of its name like it does today. And it depends on who you recast. There's certain characters you can recast where half the people wouldn't notice and the other half that does wouldn't care, and there's other characters who have made such an imprint that you simply can't just recast.
@@androssteague Whilst I agree with you about certain characters making an imprint and not being re-castable, I'd argue that *Kang the Conqueror* isn't one of those characters.
they already clowned Kang to death, they could make it official with a half assed throwaway line like they did to Natalie Portman's character in Ragnarok
@@CyberLance26ever heard of Chadwick Boseman before black panther? And don't lie. Ever heard of Michael B Jordan before he joined the MCU? If you want to consider those their break out roles, that cool. Question is, why does your ignorance even matter? If you didn't know of them before, so what? Do you know every single actor in the world?
@@keystone6162Boseman had already been Legendary Icons James Brown And Jackie Robinson so yeah. B Jordan was well know by ANYONE who was into The Wire - still one of the best series ever.
Credit to Disney for at least waiting for Majors to be found guilty in a court of law before firing him. They could have easily fired him after the news first broke earlier this year but they waited for the Justice system to play our first.
the only reason they did that was because they were worried about the fallout after the johnny depp/amber turd situation. if not for that they wouldve just fired him right away. disney didnt act the way they did regarding majors because they are moral, its because they were covering their own butts.....again.
I mean he wasn't found guilty of the initial allegations. They charged him for being a bit too rough in defending himself and trying to retrieve stolen property, which accidently injured someone's pinky....
Do they HAVE to fire him? Genuinely curious. Like, aside from social media outrage possibility, do actor contracts stipulate they are terminated if the actor is charged with a crime and the like?
They made her a bad guybin the comics for the second infinity war and they immediately forgave her for becoming an authoritarian police state person and said "it wasn't her fault" when it totally was "
They can literally do WHATEVER they want with Kang or without him. Continuity doesn't mean jack s**t in the mcu anymore. They can recast him, theu can ignore him, they can kill him off, you name it.
The text messages completely fucked him cause they didnt claim he was attempting to harm anyone on the night in question, from the video its clear he puts her in her Escalade and then just starts running away. The text messages completely destroyed his image tho
Didn't I hear somewhere that Jonathan Majors had stipulated in his contract that only HE could play the character Kang ? Therefore if JM can't play the character, Kang is basically gone from the MCU ?
@StoneWT That's IF he did what he's accused of doing. They could hire someone else, but if he wins his case, they'd have to buy him out of his contract. Risky move for Disney, but we know they aren't too bright.
Although I hate Disney you’d think they’d learn from this and choose a villain to build a story around who isn’t based on a specific actors likeness. That was what worked so well with Thanos, anyone could’ve played him because he’s a purple alien
Man that stinks. He had a great life story of overcoming the odds; grew up in bad neighborhood and was even homeless at one point, but then went to UNC and then freaking Yale, and then became a movie star. Then he messed it all up.
He literally was convicted of being accidentally hurting someone for trying to get his property back, trying to separate from her and running away. All being misdemeanors, so I’m not sure why the use of the word horrible would even be said.
Cheadle's a good actor and I think Howard was too silly of fighter-pilot-cocky. The stripper pole in the plane scene in Iron Man 1 was too goofy and out of place for me. Cheadle has a calmer dignity.
Shad needs to consider actor's narcissism from the actor's POV: (1) I was selected from hundreds of other actors as the best; (2) I gave the director everything I was asked for; (3) the studios think I'm worth millions of dollars in salary; (4) the studios ask me to be in their next film; (5) the audience has paid billions to see my movies and shows; (6) I'm not responsible for the scripts, budgets, or other executive decisions. Kinda hard not for an actor not to think they are the chosen one (doesn't make it true of course).
This is why I like Mel Gibson. Even in a drunken tirade never once did he say, "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM? I AM SOMEONE IMPORTANT!" He isn't perfect but he actually helps people instead of virtue signaling.
The only thing that concerns me about this is, Majors was convicted of unintentionally injuring his girlfriend's finger; which only happened because he had to grab his phone from her after she took it from him without his permission. If he can be convicted of assault, she should be convicted of theft. But _she_ wasn't even charged with anything! People focusing solely the "Hollywood" aspect of this story are missing the frighteningly dystopian judicial aspect of this case. And I'm saying that as someone who cares nothing for Majors.
He’s not to smart. You’re a rising movie star yet texting some chick you’re going to kill your self if she goes to the hospital. Dude is a narcissist plain and simple.
No one would care if Kang didn't appear again. They set up The Leader in one of the first MCU movies and he never appeared again. Baron Mordo was set up to hunt down all magic users at the end of the first Dr. Strange, this version of Mordo never appeared again. Justin Hammer was set up to be "coming back for revenge" at the end of Ironman 2, he never appeared again.
Have Deadpool reset all the MCU D+ shows after Endgame by using Cable's time travel watch, or say all those shows after Endgame were actually from Earth 615.
Nonsense. Anyone that payed attention to the trial could see that he was essentially framed as the villain. It's a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. And was found guilty of unintentional assault, which is ridiculous. You're trying your best to avoid confrontation with your partner who's chasing and attacking you. Giving someone a slight push to get away from them should not be considered assault and neither should placing someone in a vehicle. He ran away even if he caused a scratch behind her ear, she was chasing him. Meanwhile the guy had scratches on his face and arm and the driver himself says he believes he saw her attacking him.
There was a 2016 Avengers comic (written by Mark Waid, no less), that did a nice synopsis of what a unique perspective a man has who has existed simultaneously in the past and the future.
I really don’t think there is an issue here. The only people who knew that Kang was going to be a big deal were super fans who read things on the internet. To anyone else, he was the villain in a shit Ant Man movie
The changed Warmachine in Iron Man 2 could use another variant of Kang in makeup costume... You never really saw the version of Kang that Loki was so afraid of...
My thought is they’re basically going to pull a James Gunn and fire him now when people are angry about the abuse but decide to bring him back the next time they have a movie with Kang in it. They could use the downtime to add some new origin story movies to introduce us to the new characters they’re going to use for their big team up movie. It would actually be better if those characters didn’t directly confront Kang although they could still mention him as a man behind the man type person. But I also agree that if they wanted to make Kang their over-arching villain they needed him to win in his first confrontation with a hero. Like holy shit that’s storytelling 101, you need to have an arc villain establish themselves by defeating someone the audience sees as powerful. And if Kang gets his ass kicked by heroes working solo why would they need to team up against him?
I don't think that it would be hard to move on from Kang. Most of his appearance's were on Disney plus shows. Nobody is watching Disney Plus. Kang looked like a joke in Ant-Man. IMO Kang is done. The MCU just needs to tease a new big bad guy in the next movie.
It’s time for a hard reboot. Just start the universe with a new set of heroes. F4, Spider Man and Daredevil. That way we can get the silver age heroes and then worry about recasting Iron Man and Cap later.
Start slowly introducing/building up The Maker. Since he's an alternate Reed Richards, maybe that's how Fantastic 4 are introduced. First in a post credit scene, then over 1 or 2 movies brought into help against & ultimately beat The Maker.
Loki season 2 ended with the TVA having a new job of hunting down Kang variants. They just need to reference that at some point and show they are doing a really good job at it.
Easy just do what they did in earth's mightiest hero's when he changes looks just have him replaced by a similar looking person change his aesthetic slightly but recognisable kang
The Manhattan DA bribed/threatened the ex-girlfriend to testify against him, and still all they could get on him was accidentally breaking her finger, after SHE stole HIS property. I don't give a f*k how much you don't like a fictional character, this should send chills down your spine.
Did the DA also fake the messages they sent each other about her wanting to go hospital with a head injury, and him saying no because they'll ask questions and ruin his career, and her saying she won't mention his name?
@@oldgregg86. Context is everything, and she already testified under oath that he never put hands on her until that night in the car. Again, AFTER she stole his property. Also she has still never accused him of abuse, not one time. Why is that?
@@UtubeMyAccountName most people who are abused, don't tell. Maybe she's scared of getting another head injury. And plenty of people lie, even under oath.
@@oldgregg86. Good grief, are you reading your own words? So if she says he hit her, then he hit her, if she says he didn't hit her, then he STILL hit her. Plus you are suggesting she told these lies under oath, committing perjury, to protect her abuser? People don't seem to understand that she didn't accuse him, it was the Manhattan DA's office who brought these charges. Also she only agreed to testify at all, because they agreed to drop HER charges. The Manhattan DA has a pattern of bringing charges against people where there is no accuser: Kevin Porter Donald Trump Adam Fosse Just to name a few besides Majors. Why you feel the need to believe this guy is a bad guy, when the facts simply don't add up is beyond me.
@@UtubeMyAccountName I don't like any abuser or bully, and he was found guilty. Why is that so hard for you believe? He was found out and couldn't hide it or get away with it anymore. If there's a retrial and he's found innocent my opinion will have to change but until then, guilty is guilty.
I'm a fan of the Kang storyline from the comics and was excited for 'Kang Dynasty'. I would love for them to recast Kang w/ another noteworthy actor like John David Washington.
With all of the people that you have to step over and the questionable decisions necessary to make in order to arrive at the top of society, the question for me is: Can you arrive there and still be a truly decent person?
After the ending of Loki season 2, Marvel could literally just have it as a throw away line that the TVA successfully managed to wipe at all remaining versions of Kang. Really not hard. No need for recasting.
"Guilty of assault and harassment" by the media is so disingenuous because he wasn't convicted on domestic assault. He was acquitted on the most serious charges of the original four. He was convicted of "unintentional harm" which is nothing because it just means in the attempt to retrieve his phone, and her attacking him which she admitted, she got hurt. That's like a person getting an assault charge because a thief got their finger hurt trying to steal their purse or wallet on the street. The harassment conviction isn't even criminal it's a violation and doesn't stay on ones record. It was the result of him placing her back in the SUV while she was trying to attack him as he tried to remove himself and de-escalate the situation by running away But court of public opinion canceled him before the trial even began anyway. Just like Depp. Meanwhile nothing happened to Grace Jabbari
Except the defense never even tried to argue that she was hurt while Majors got his phone back. Their argument was that she wasn't hurt at all in the car, which contradicted what the original texts said.
This segment contained way too much bloviating on ideas of narcissism. Majors’ was convicted of unintentionally being a little rough in retrieving his phone from a “thief” which resulted in a bruised finger. Despite seemingly choosing the best option of retreating he’ll ultimately be forced to endure the absurdity of community service.
his texts were obvious manipulative narcisissm. yeah everything sounds bad when it's the prosecutor saying it, but he was convicted, and that's what the record will show. It's just the way things happen at the moment and guys just have to be super careful around crazy women when they go full mental because accusations are far easier to make than they are to fight successfully, almost impossible when there's physicality involved due to reverse sexism (the assumption is that a woman can't perpetrate physical violence upon a man because of a gendered steretotype of strength imbalance and DV statistics)
Where did we see him lose in Loki? I mean he might have at the very end, but the rest was exactly what he had planned out, and I’m guessing if they went forward with Kang even having Loki take over was part of his plan.
You know how in trek next generation they kept getting bad guys to give Worf a slap to show they were powerful? Well if Kang tried that, Worf would have beaten him to death.
If you watched the end of the Loki series, the "TVA and the "god of the time-loom turned into Yddrasil" are now responsible for keeping the nearly infinite Kangs at bay.
just have the man that played the High Evolutionary, Chukwudi Iwuji, you can just say it's another variant and it wouldn't even be a problem wardrobe was similar enough and that dude gets more work win win.

Imagine if instead of being defeated by ants, (dumbest "climax" ever), imagine if he had succeeded in killing Scott Lang in Quantumania. How much more impactful would that have been? Instead he was defeated by a teenager and a bunch of lifesized pests.
*Edit*
Comparatively, look at Thanos' introduction: In the first minutes of Infinity War, he singlehandedly subdued and killed multiple demigods and proceeded to manhandle Hulk, who was believed to be the strongest Avenger in the MCU at the time.
Kang wasn't respected because he was dispatched like he was just another run of the mill bad guy, not the Boss level antagonist he should have been.
I do believe the original ending had Scott and Hope locked in the Quantum Realm. My understanding the planned ending was a lot darker than what was produced.
@@LastSunrise1981 Go figure. Disney has really screwed the pooch with both Star Wars and Marvel.
Well you can’t really compare Thanos and kang anyways even in the comics kang isn’t as a big of a threat as Thanos
@@westside9032 All I'm saying is they built Kang up to be the next big bad, and he was easily handled. The variant said he had put down many rebellions, but a teenage girl and a bunch of ants outsmarted him in the most ridiculous way possible. Any threat he was supposed to represent was gone at that point.
Marvel is afraid to go darker in its bigger tent poles. Yes Iron Man and Natasha died but it was in the 2nd biggest movie of all time and part of the reason why it’s the 2nd biggest movie of all time.
Or you can look at it as they will kill off or discontinue Iron Man, Cap, Black Panther and Natasha but not freaking Ant Man (who isn’t even the original Ant Man anyway!)
One of the best decisions was to let Thanos win in Infinity War, we all knew it would get undone but as an ending the snap was brutal and perfect in confirming him as that level of threat whereas Kang gets beaten by ants, imagine if he had won instead..would anyone really care if he had taken out the Pyms and maybe Sylvie in Loki too? Anyone? Bueller?
If he took out Sylvie in Loki, that would've been a great subversion of expectations and made people think "oh crap, this guy's *really* no pushover"
Instead, season 2, everything's going according to his plan but the plan is kinda lame. To be fair, it worked except for the part where the *only* thing he didn't figure out was that Loki would actually work out how to *properly* take over
@@InfernosReaper yeah and I think if he did it early on enough it suggests that anyone can die, similar to how Thanos kills Loki himself at the start of IW, leading to more tension throughout a film or series.
And, although it worked out monetarily for them, one of their worst decisions was to not stop at the snap but to retroactively erase the stakes with time travel and quantum realm bullshit afterwards. That was the end of any investment in outcomes across any Marvel movie.
@@akopp54 yeah, the multiverse stuff got annoying fast and when that and time travel is possible it erases any real investment from us
@@pringleton Yeah, either one of those things makes stakes matter about as much as they do with magic wish-granting balls, but *combined* they become the single laziest narrative option possible without outright calling it "deus ex machina" and completely eliminate all stakes
*That* is the *real* reason why most people are tired of these super hero flicks. The lack of stakes and caring about continuity in the writing make characters and plot matter less than the Vindicators on Rick & Morty.
Peter Parker from the Multiverse was shown to have 3 different variants, all played by a different actor. So was Loki. It didn't make sense for all of Kang's variants to be identical in the first place.
And fron what we have heard, there will be non-identical Mr. Fantastic variants.
You know, this comment made me realize what is different about MCU Kang from comics Kang. He is a time traveler and all the versions of him are just from different times, not universes.
@@DougVehoveclike reverse flash?
@@santi_super_stunts2573 not as far as i know of Reverse Flash. There's only one, right? Kang has traveled time so many times and remained in those times, sometimes emerging as different personas, and there's a Council of Kangs to keep track of and tabs on them.
@@DougVehovec well at least in the cw show there are several versions
My prediction is they are going to take a page from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Remember when they set that little kid vampire up to be the big villain, then, Josh Whedon discovered that little kids grow up quick, and they couldn’t use the kid. So they just had Spike kill him. They will probably have that council of Kangs, and then Dr Doom shows up and kills every single one of them. Problem solved.
That would be awesome.
Poison gas, electrocution, extreme heat/cold, etc.?
Imagine if the MCU actually made Kang a genuine threat though? And then introduce Dr. Doom a little later so we can have the most badass villain rivalry straight out of the comics. Too bad the MCU went out of its way to take the worst possible paths in a story.
@@StoneWT hes magic so he could siphon their powers away
@username.exenotfound2943 Good point. Where exactly is the Kang meeting hall though and how would Doom find it? ...and aware of the threat along with knowing how to end it?
Cast Terrence Howard lol
That'd be hilarious
A good example of a villain that is still intimidating but always loses is Ganondorf from the LoZ franchise.
Even though he always loses in the end, they almost always make a point to show the effect he's had on the world at large. In OoT, he's the cause of the dark future you're trying to avert. In BotW and TotK, he's the impetus behind a lot of character deaths and Hyrule basically becoming a post-apocalypse.
If Quantumania had gone beyond just saying "things suck now under Kang's rule", didn't saddle him with MODOK, and didn't have him defeated by ants, Kang might have actually had an intimidating presence in the movie
Meh kang still wouldn’t be intimidating to me no matter what since he’s just a normal guy with no super powers or anything
@@westside9032 Yeah, I hear ya. To make him intimidating, they would actually have to try.
And they did not
with all these infinite multiverses they could have shown some where Kang(s) had won and done some mega evil stuff, what better way to show the heroes the stakes by showing them their variants getting tortured to bits, manipulated to turning to the Dark Side, failing to protect earth, etc etc. They hinted at this kind of thing in Dr Strange 2 then just let it go, like, I know it's a stock standard Hero's Journey trope to be fighting not to let their shadow take over but it'd be better than the lameness of the Kang they served up instead, who's really going to miss the last we saw of him, the 19th Century Stuttering Clown Kang of Loki S2
*War Machine* miraculously changed his appearance without an explanation.
*Bruce Banner* miraculously changed his appearance without explanation.
One of two things will happen:
*- Kang the Conqueror* will be killed off.
*- Kang the Conqueror* will just be recast without explanation.
Banner and War machine were recast back in the days when MCU did not hold the weight of its name like it does today. And it depends on who you recast. There's certain characters you can recast where half the people wouldn't notice and the other half that does wouldn't care, and there's other characters who have made such an imprint that you simply can't just recast.
@@androssteague Whilst I agree with you about certain characters making an imprint and not being re-castable, I'd argue that *Kang the Conqueror* isn't one of those characters.
they already clowned Kang to death, they could make it official with a half assed throwaway line like they did to Natalie Portman's character in Ragnarok
Robert brings up a GREAT point that kang lost too many times for him to be threatening in the end
Crazy how MCU survived all of Me Too unscathed, only for this to happen.
"WE WUZ KANGZ!" has never been more accurate, considering the multiple iterations.
Well, I haven't seen ANYTHING with Kang in it, so technically, I wouldn't even notice if he just disappeared!
I didn’t expect Shad to be a part of this! This pleases me as a Shadiversity fan.
"...you see him do nothing but lose just builds up in your mind that this guy in not a threat..."
So Kang was just the MSheU's version of Megamind.
I asked my 65 year old parents what they thought about Jonathan Majors getting fired. They said "who?"
I never heard about him before he became Kang.
@@CyberLance26ever heard of Chadwick Boseman before black panther?
And don't lie.
Ever heard of Michael B Jordan before he joined the MCU?
If you want to consider those their break out roles, that cool. Question is, why does your ignorance even matter?

There's a lot your mommy and daddy doesn't know buddy.

Pretty sure they’re NOT the audience for pretty much every movie ever made
Demos for movies end at 55…
@@keystone6162Boseman had already been Legendary Icons James Brown And Jackie Robinson so yeah.
B Jordan was well know by ANYONE who was into The Wire - still one of the best series ever.
What I liked about Jonathan Majors' character was his Kang-do attitude.
Except the only thing he Kang-did, was lose.
The drama surrounding the MCU is far more entertaining than anything the MCU has produced in the last few years.
Ain't that the truth! Same goes for Lucasfilm.
Credit to Disney for at least waiting for Majors to be found guilty in a court of law before firing him. They could have easily fired him after the news first broke earlier this year but they waited for the Justice system to play our first.
the only reason they did that was because they were worried about the fallout after the johnny depp/amber turd situation. if not for that they wouldve just fired him right away. disney didnt act the way they did regarding majors because they are moral, its because they were covering their own butts.....again.
You learned how to copy paste 👏
I mean he wasn't found guilty of the initial allegations. They charged him for being a bit too rough in defending himself and trying to retrieve stolen property, which accidently injured someone's pinky....
Nah they were dropping him no matter what happened they’re gutless. They knew 6+ months ago when the case started they were done with the actor.
Do they HAVE to fire him? Genuinely curious. Like, aside from social media outrage possibility, do actor contracts stipulate they are terminated if the actor is charged with a crime and the like?
I SPEAK FOR EVERYONE WHEN I SAY : GINA CARANO SHOULD BE CASTED AS KANG .
how ridiculous, I thought, then I remembered they pulled a blonde female Loki out of the multiverse of infinitely unforeseeable plotlines
I will see your Gina Carano and raise you a Kevin Spacey as Kang.
Marvel made Captain Marvel a Villain and they had no idea. Make her the Next Big Bad Guy after Thanos. It'll work.
They made her a bad guybin the comics for the second infinity war and they immediately forgave her for becoming an authoritarian police state person and said "it wasn't her fault" when it totally was "
That would create a paradox. She can't lose because she's a female, but they couldn't let her win because she's fighting all females.
They can literally do WHATEVER they want with Kang or without him. Continuity doesn't mean jack s**t in the mcu anymore.
They can recast him, theu can ignore him, they can kill him off, you name it.
infinite multiverses and infinite timelines mean the writers can infinitely pull infinite retcons and infinite twists out of their infinite asses
The text messages completely fucked him cause they didnt claim he was attempting to harm anyone on the night in question, from the video its clear he puts her in her Escalade and then just starts running away. The text messages completely destroyed his image tho
Crazy thing is the texts weren't even from that incident. Dude got railroaded.
Kang was only in 1 movie. He lost to ant man. I think they could recast him, or just have loki be the new villain
Recast Kang as Wanda Sykes.
They switched Rhodey with 1 line... "Look, it’s me. I’m here. Deal with it. Let’s move on.”
they disappeared Natalie Portman for half a decade with one lame "mutual dumping" line
Happy to see Robert here. Been a fan of him from John Campea Show.
With that said, it’s impossible to find someone to replace Jonathan Majors.
Kid of weird seeing him talk to white supremacists though...

Woman King to Woman Kang?
:D
Didn't I hear somewhere that Jonathan Majors had stipulated in his contract that only HE could play the character Kang ? Therefore if JM can't play the character, Kang is basically gone from the MCU ?
They usually have a morals clause so accidentally injuring someone that stole your phone may be used to cancel the contract.
@StoneWT
That's IF he did what he's accused of doing. They could hire someone else, but if he wins his case, they'd have to buy him out of his contract. Risky move for Disney, but we know they aren't too bright.
@@croaton07he’s been literally convicted in the court of law lol
Since I never liked Kang in the first place, I consider this my Christmas gift.
Although I hate Disney you’d think they’d learn from this and choose a villain to build a story around who isn’t based on a specific actors likeness. That was what worked so well with Thanos, anyone could’ve played him because he’s a purple alien
I mean, he could just be played by a blue CGI guy.
*They will make a woman " KANG "*
They will hire Lady Gaga, Anne Hathaway, and etc.
Man that stinks. He had a great life story of overcoming the odds; grew up in bad neighborhood and was even homeless at one point, but then went to UNC and then freaking Yale, and then became a movie star.
Then he messed it all up.
Leslie Jones would be a great Kang and a suitable addition to the MCU.
I second this
@@richardlongoria8661 i third this she’d fit right into the mcu at this point
She makes a better Thanos. The way she destroys franchises are world ending level even Mistress Death would be aroused.
@@fobinc 🤣 I’m imagining that statue coming to life right now
The meme of the Kangs being super excited is very popular. I do think some people will be like, huh where did he go?
He literally was convicted of being accidentally hurting someone for trying to get his property back, trying to separate from her and running away. All being misdemeanors, so I’m not sure why the use of the word horrible would even be said.
Cause he is a man and dark
Hell, before Disney owned Marvel, we bought them turning Terrance Howard into Don Cheadle.
Cheadle's a good actor and I think Howard was too silly of fighter-pilot-cocky. The stripper pole in the plane scene in Iron Man 1 was too goofy and out of place for me. Cheadle has a calmer dignity.
@@genegayda3042 Stripper pole in the plane was pure Tony. Before he was forced to grow up, by narrowly surviving his own weapons killing him.
There's an overpowering smell of lavender about this situation.
"It's me, I'm here, deal with it"
They solved this problem in Iron Man 2
Also in Avengers when they recast Hulk/Banner.
Probably for the best to move onto Dr Doom
That level of villain is necessary now to create any buzz at all
Anyone got a link to the stream? Cba waiting for vod
The gf met him working on set of Antman 3. So she was a Disney employee and they didn’t hashtag believeallwomen. 🤔
If they can have an alligator variant of Loki, they can have anyone playing Kang.
Majors was a Kang.
Shad needs to consider actor's narcissism from the actor's POV: (1) I was selected from hundreds of other actors as the best; (2) I gave the director everything I was asked for; (3) the studios think I'm worth millions of dollars in salary; (4) the studios ask me to be in their next film; (5) the audience has paid billions to see my movies and shows; (6) I'm not responsible for the scripts, budgets, or other executive decisions. Kinda hard not for an actor not to think they are the chosen one (doesn't make it true of course).
“We have the technology to rebuild this man…”
Oh. Wrong Majors…
If they decide to recast Kang Might I suggest Kirk Lazarus take on the role.
This is why I like Mel Gibson. Even in a drunken tirade never once did he say, "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM? I AM SOMEONE IMPORTANT!"
He isn't perfect but he actually helps people instead of virtue signaling.
The only thing that concerns me about this is, Majors was convicted of unintentionally injuring his girlfriend's finger; which only happened because he had to grab his phone from her after she took it from him without his permission. If he can be convicted of assault, she should be convicted of theft. But _she_ wasn't even charged with anything! People focusing solely the "Hollywood" aspect of this story are missing the frighteningly dystopian judicial aspect of this case. And I'm saying that as someone who cares nothing for Majors.
You're telling me black men have are not well served by the American justice system? I'm shocked, *SHOCKED!*
The American criminal justice system routinely lets women break the law. Look at the bullshit Matt Araiza is going through now for example.
She was charged by the police, but the DA dropped all charges.
He’s not to smart. You’re a rising movie star yet texting some chick you’re going to kill your self if she goes to the hospital. Dude is a narcissist plain and simple.
@andrewcarlton6196 which is even worse
No one would care if Kang didn't appear again. They set up The Leader in one of the first MCU movies and he never appeared again. Baron Mordo was set up to hunt down all magic users at the end of the first Dr. Strange, this version of Mordo never appeared again. Justin Hammer was set up to be "coming back for revenge" at the end of Ironman 2, he never appeared again.
Have Deadpool reset all the MCU D+ shows after Endgame by using Cable's time travel watch, or say all those shows after Endgame were actually from Earth 615.
I laughed at What If season2 episode 2 where Hank Pym refers to the Winter Soldier as a commie after what he said in AM3
I'm still waiting for a live action Micronauts project of some kind, even if it is a totally unrealistic dream, ha!
He plays a villain on screen, and he plays a villain in real life.
Nonsense. Anyone that payed attention to the trial could see that he was essentially framed as the villain. It's a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. And was found guilty of unintentional assault, which is ridiculous. You're trying your best to avoid confrontation with your partner who's chasing and attacking you. Giving someone a slight push to get away from them should not be considered assault and neither should placing someone in a vehicle. He ran away even if he caused a scratch behind her ear, she was chasing him. Meanwhile the guy had scratches on his face and arm and the driver himself says he believes he saw her attacking him.
It was a glorified domestic dispute; a lover's tiff.
Pull your head out yer ass and think for yourself. He was stitched up. Why? Fuck knows.
Tell your not marvel fan 😂
There was a 2016 Avengers comic (written by Mark Waid, no less), that did a nice synopsis of what a unique perspective a man has who has existed simultaneously in the past and the future.
I really don’t think there is an issue here. The only people who knew that Kang was going to be a big deal were super fans who read things on the internet.
To anyone else, he was the villain in a shit Ant Man movie
He was the shit villain in quantumania who was beaten by a couple large ants.
Holy crap Robert Meyer Burnett is on here? I genuinely didn't expect that!
The changed Warmachine in Iron Man 2 could use another variant of Kang in makeup costume... You never really saw the version of Kang that Loki was so afraid of...
My thought is they’re basically going to pull a James Gunn and fire him now when people are angry about the abuse but decide to bring him back the next time they have a movie with Kang in it. They could use the downtime to add some new origin story movies to introduce us to the new characters they’re going to use for their big team up movie. It would actually be better if those characters didn’t directly confront Kang although they could still mention him as a man behind the man type person.
But I also agree that if they wanted to make Kang their over-arching villain they needed him to win in his first confrontation with a hero. Like holy shit that’s storytelling 101, you need to have an arc villain establish themselves by defeating someone the audience sees as powerful. And if Kang gets his ass kicked by heroes working solo why would they need to team up against him?
The problem with Kang was the fact that the only time he could beat a woman was off-screen.
Merry Christmas
I don't think that it would be hard to move on from Kang. Most of his appearance's were on Disney plus shows. Nobody is watching Disney Plus. Kang looked like a joke in Ant-Man. IMO Kang is done. The MCU just needs to tease a new big bad guy in the next movie.
If he would have killed antman or beat him badly that would have gave him way more street cred to the Avengers
It’s time for a hard reboot. Just start the universe with a new set of heroes. F4, Spider Man and Daredevil. That way we can get the silver age heroes and then worry about recasting Iron Man and Cap later.
That's a bit of a bummer really because he only graduated in Drama at Yale so he's well and truly 🔩
Start slowly introducing/building up The Maker. Since he's an alternate Reed Richards, maybe that's how Fantastic 4 are introduced. First in a post credit scene, then over 1 or 2 movies brought into help against & ultimately beat The Maker.
The door for Dr. Doom has opened as Kang’s door closed.
This is legit the first panel Ive seen where anyone says anything positive about Major’s acting ability….wtf?
I only saw reviews of things he's in and Kang is beyond cringe, the least intimidating villain ever. Firing him is the best thing they could have done
Loki season 2 ended with the TVA having a new job of hunting down Kang variants. They just need to reference that at some point and show they are doing a really good job at it.
tbf that dialogue they quoted would totally be in a Shad novel
Easy just do what they did in earth's mightiest hero's when he changes looks just have him replaced by a similar looking person change his aesthetic slightly but recognisable kang
Majors actually thought he was kang
The Manhattan DA bribed/threatened the ex-girlfriend to testify against him, and still all they could get on him was accidentally breaking her finger, after SHE stole HIS property. I don't give a f*k how much you don't like a fictional character, this should send chills down your spine.
Did the DA also fake the messages they sent each other about her wanting to go hospital with a head injury, and him saying no because they'll ask questions and ruin his career, and her saying she won't mention his name?
@@oldgregg86. Context is everything, and she already testified under oath that he never put hands on her until that night in the car. Again, AFTER she stole his property.
Also she has still never accused him of abuse, not one time. Why is that?
@@UtubeMyAccountName most people who are abused, don't tell. Maybe she's scared of getting another head injury. And plenty of people lie, even under oath.

People don't seem to understand that she didn't accuse him, it was the Manhattan DA's office who brought these charges. Also she only agreed to testify at all, because they agreed to drop HER charges.
The Manhattan DA has a pattern of bringing charges against people where there is no accuser:
Kevin Porter
Donald Trump
Adam Fosse
Just to name a few besides Majors. Why you feel the need to believe this guy is a bad guy, when the facts simply don't add up is beyond me.
@@UtubeMyAccountName I don't like any abuser or bully, and he was found guilty. Why is that so hard for you believe?
He was found out and couldn't hide it or get away with it anymore.
If there's a retrial and he's found innocent my opinion will have to change but until then, guilty is guilty.
Need to hurry and restock the shirt!
I'm a fan of the Kang storyline from the comics and was excited for 'Kang Dynasty'. I would love for them to recast Kang w/ another noteworthy actor like John David Washington.
With all of the people that you have to step over and the questionable decisions necessary to make in order to arrive at the top of society, the question for me is: Can you arrive there and still be a truly decent person?
It’s hard to remain a good person while trying to climb the ladder at your job let alone climbing to the top of society.
loki killed kang and took his place essentially. they gave themselves a perfect out.
After the ending of Loki season 2, Marvel could literally just have it as a throw away line that the TVA successfully managed to wipe at all remaining versions of Kang. Really not hard. No need for recasting.
"Guilty of assault and harassment" by the media is so disingenuous because he wasn't convicted on domestic assault. He was acquitted on the most serious charges of the original four. He was convicted of "unintentional harm" which is nothing because it just means in the attempt to retrieve his phone, and her attacking him which she admitted, she got hurt.
That's like a person getting an assault charge because a thief got their finger hurt trying to steal their purse or wallet on the street.
The harassment conviction isn't even criminal it's a violation and doesn't stay on ones record. It was the result of him placing her back in the SUV while she was trying to attack him as he tried to remove himself and de-escalate the situation by running away
But court of public opinion canceled him before the trial even began anyway. Just like Depp.
Meanwhile nothing happened to Grace Jabbari
Except the defense never even tried to argue that she was hurt while Majors got his phone back. Their argument was that she wasn't hurt at all in the car, which contradicted what the original texts said.
@@Hedgehobbit What original texts? I hope you don't mean the Sept 2022 ones
@budgiecat9039 The ones that Majors' lawyers initially released. Where she says "they saw the injuries on me and knew we had a fight."
This segment contained way too much bloviating on ideas of narcissism. Majors’ was convicted of unintentionally being a little rough in retrieving his phone from a “thief” which resulted in a bruised finger. Despite seemingly choosing the best option of retreating he’ll ultimately be forced to endure the absurdity of community service.
his texts were obvious manipulative narcisissm. yeah everything sounds bad when it's the prosecutor saying it, but he was convicted, and that's what the record will show. It's just the way things happen at the moment and guys just have to be super careful around crazy women when they go full mental because accusations are far easier to make than they are to fight successfully, almost impossible when there's physicality involved due to reverse sexism (the assumption is that a woman can't perpetrate physical violence upon a man because of a gendered steretotype of strength imbalance and DV statistics)
Sounds like Jonathan is in Major trouble
Nice try.

Kang will become the meme with the sword in Silithus! 😆
The way Loki S02 ended: Kang is entirely undone. Could just ignore Kang with no more references!
After what they did to Kang and butcher him, not sure I have faith in Dr Doom or Galactus.
Oh dang ! Rob is here ??? Let’s gooooo
Where did we see him lose in Loki? I mean he might have at the very end, but the rest was exactly what he had planned out, and I’m guessing if they went forward with Kang even having Loki take over was part of his plan.
Talking about Kang losing all the time is the Worf effect.
You know how in trek next generation they kept getting bad guys to give Worf a slap to show they were powerful?
Well if Kang tried that, Worf would have beaten him to death.
If you watched the end of the Loki series, the "TVA and the "god of the time-loom turned into Yddrasil" are now responsible for keeping the nearly infinite Kangs at bay.
just have the man that played the High Evolutionary, Chukwudi Iwuji, you can just say it's another variant and it wouldn't even be a problem wardrobe was similar enough and that dude gets more work win win.
