Marvel Legacy Movies 2.

Okay, last time, I said...

BUT, I have a feeling in my bones that Dr. Strange 2, and Spidey 3 will merge the MLM and Sony-verse (SPUMC) into the MCU so it'll all retroactively be MCU anyway.

And they'll think of a clever trick to shoehorn Hulk and Ghost Rider in there if they've already gone to that much trouble.

Okay, so here's how I'd do it.

Consider this also a sequel to my speculation post of how I'd integrate the X-Men and Fantastic Four into the MCU.

Okay, for the films Disney/Marvel doesn't own, you can still canonize them into MCU, and here's how you do it.

You have a scene in "Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness", where Doctor Strange opens a bunch of portholes, and they all peek in to a different movie-verse, and inside, clips of the movies are happening.

Easy-peasy right?

Well, yes and no.

The Fox movies, Disney actually owns them now, so you can use real clips.

That's the easy bit.

And Sony seems to be deliberately meshing themselves into the MCU!

Not only don't you have to fight them, Kevin Feige is actually cringeing against the degree they want to join in!

Spidey's taken care of!

No need to sweat that one!

Here's where my loophole comes in.

Disney has back the rights to the CHARACTERS of Hulk, Howard The Duck, Ghost Rider, Punisher, Man-Thing, and Blade (yeah, I left out Blade from the graphic, cuz it would have made 11 movies, and 11 is a cock-eyed number that doesn't block out right).

BUT, they don't own the MOVIES those characters are in, so you can't use clips unless you want to pay a big-ass fee.

And they could do that.

But they're not likely to if they can help it.

Here's how to help it.

Change the characters out.

More specifically, the versions of them.

Show the scene from Bana-Hulk where Hulk throws the tank, but change it to Ruffalo-Hulk.

Show a scene from 80's Howard The Duck, but make it CGI Howard from Guardians 1 & 2.

Show a scene from Ghost Rider, but make it the Ghost Rider from "Agents Of Shield".

Show a scene from Blade, but have it be Mahershala Ali.

Show scenes from all three Punishers, but have them all be John Bernthal.

And show Man-Thing, but have it be...anything better than what that crap movie did.

Just MCU-ify it.

Make it match the statue in "Thor: Ragnarok".

It skirts copyright.

And they own the characters anyway.

If Stewie Griffin can imitate the fighting moves of Yoda from "Attack Of The Clones", Ruffalo-Hulk can act out a scene from Bana-Hulk, and so on, and so on.

If Marvel didn't own the characters, it might be trickier, but where they do, I think this would work.

And if someone did frivolously sue, how much would it cost?

Tens of millions?

"Multiverse Of Madness", will make a billion.

Big fucking deal.

Bring it on.

I say, go for it, Disney.

Then, you've retro-canonized all the old stuff in, and then moving forward, you use the re-casted versions of the characters (especially X-Men) in the MCU to interact with the Avengers.

They could do something else, but...I don't see many other paths.

My idea is the one of least resistance that also would make the fans cheer in the aisles.

A nice little reward for us fanboys/fangirls who've watched everything since 1986.
