Apparently, at some point after his twelfth regeneration, the Doctor would become evil and travel back in time to frame his past self for false crimes and steal his regenerations.
Another day on the internet, another fan theory relating to Avengers: Endgame. With the recent digital release of the movie, fans have had a chance to go over the finer details of the superhero epic with a fine-tooth comb, and some have already jumped to some very interesting conclusions. One such conclusion takes the form of a fan theory regarding Tony Stark, and how he might have been given the same serum that turned Steve Rogers into the super-soldier Captain America.
According to the latest reports doing the rounds on the internet, Ewan McGregor, who played the wise and youthful version of Obi-Wan Kenobi in the Star Wars prequels after inheriting the character from veteran actor Alec Guinness, is making a return to his most famous role in a Disney Plus show centering around the Jedi master.
The first It movie, based on Stephen King's bestselling novel about a killer clown who terrorizes the children of a small town was a massive box office success. It caught many by surprise, too, since the buzz surrounding the release had been very low. But It went on to have the highest opening weekend for an R-rated horror movie ever, proving that there were more fans of the novel and its TV adaptation who wanted to see the big screen version than trade analysts had realized.
Avengers: Endgame may have exited theaters months ago, but the recent Digital and Blu-ray releases of the movie have given fresh life to the chatter surrounding it. They come with several deleted scenes, as well as commentary by the film's creative team and one titbit revealed in the latter concerns the giant sword wielded by Thanos during the final battle.
For all the people who complained that Man of Steel and Batman V Superman showed an unnecessarily violent, mopey and uninspiring Superman, wait till you find out what Zack Snyder had planned for the character in Justice League. While fans demand for the Snyder Cut of the DC heroes' team-up movie is growing louder every day, Warner Bros. continues to turn a deaf ear to their pleas. Nevertheless, director Zack Snyder has dropped plenty of hints as to the nature of the movie he was intending to make until a personal tragedy forced him to step away from the project.
The release of Avengers: Endgame inspired a never-before-seen level of fervor among moviegoers and comic book fans. Every minuscule detail was breathlessly analyzed and held up to public scrutiny. One such detail which caused a lot of raised eyebrows was Thanos' time jump into the future, and the logistics behind such a feat.
Avengers: Endgame saw fans saying goodbye to a lot of heroes, most notably Iron Man, Captain America and Black Widow. The three were central pillars of the MCU, as well as the oldest statesmen of the Marvel franchise. While Tony and Steve got appropriately meaty scenes dealing with their end and how the rest of the heroes reacted to their passing, Nat was not so lucky.
Avengers: Endgame may have been the biggest superhero movie of all time. But it ended on one of the most touchingly human moments in all of the MCU. Steve Rogers travels back in time and is reunited with the love of his life, Peggy Carter. The final scene has the two in a loving embrace, dancing a slow dance as they celebrate their life together and the peace and tranquility that the two had yearned for their whole lives but never got. At least, that's what the fans thought the dialogue-less scene was depicting.
The clamor among fans for Zack Snyder's version of Justice League is gathering strength day by day. And it seems the ripples of the obsession with the Snyder cut are being felt in the MCU as well. Recently, directors Joe and Anthony Russo held a Reddit AMA session to promote the release of Avengers: Endgame on DVD and Blu-Ray.
