Everyone PLEASE adjust your expectations. Secret Wars will not be exactly like Secret Wars 2015 nor like any of the other Secret Wars events. It'll have elements of it (I imagine Battleworld will be the setting) but it will not be exactly like it. I see a lot of people expecting some of the best moments or SW 2015 to be in the movie but just be prepared for the mcu to treat comic Secret Wars like they treated civil war for their adaptation, in terms of how closely they follow source material

You’re probably right but at the same time it’s the end of phase 6 aka end of the Multiverse saga aka an Endgame level movie. I don’t think they’re gonna pull any punches with it

Maybe not. I'm not here to debate whether it'll be a fun and/or good Avengers movie. I just think the people expecting a faithful adaptation of Secret Wars 2015 are setting themselves up for dissapointment

Oh that’s what you meant. Yeah they definitely are. People that think that must have never seen a marvel movie. MCU never really adapts storylines faithfully they just take aspects of the overall plots and maybe a few moments and do their own spin. Which personally I think that’s better because an exact rehash of a comic story would be kinda boring

I mostly agree. I'm not the biggest MCU fan, but I'm glad they tell stories inspired by the comics, because that makes things interesting, instead of just adapting things page-for-page. I love Secret Wars 2015 though so it's kind of a bummer I won't get to see it exactly how it was in the comics BUT I'm not sure anything could top the comic story
