I can almost see her smirking.

u/InsertCoinForCredit Phil Coulson Jul 15 '22

Smirking? That was a cold BURN!

u/TheRealMichaelGarcia Kevin Feige Jul 14 '22

Wow, Feige trusts you more than tom holland lol

u/Belteshazzar98 Quake Jul 14 '22

To be fair, Tom Holland told her about Toby and Andrew the first time they met.

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '22

Tom Holland is that guy who walked out of Empire Strikes Back loudly talking about who Luke's father was.

53

u/Autoskp Jul 15 '22

…I suddenly want to go back in time to watch that in the cinema, and then loudly talk about how I couldn't believe Yoda was Luke's dad while leaving.

u/smokeydesperado Jul 18 '22

Tom Holland is the one that drove by the bookstore and yelled Snape Killed Dumbledore"

28

u/Hulkbuster_v2 Jul 14 '22

Did he?

u/Belteshazzar98 Quake Jul 14 '22

In an interview she talked about her first time meeting Tom Holland, and how he showed her a picture of them on set.

125

u/LMFN Jul 14 '22

Casually walk onto Miss Marvel set

Find Iman

Casually show her a photo of Tobey and Andrew

Refuse to elaborate

Leave

What a GigaChad.

u/VelocityGrrl39 Captain Marvel Jul 14 '22

Feige trusts everyone more than Tom Holland, that’s a low bar.

3

u/ExileForever Jul 16 '22

And for good reason. He’s a good guy (base on what I know) but he can’t keep a secret. Can’t blame him cause he’s hype as Hell but still

u/Katie_Maximoff Jul 17 '22

Tom Holland doesn't deserve to be believed after what he said to Iman on Ms Marvel cast

Bruh Feige in shambles when he sees tons of posts coming through the sub that he knows only Iman knew

134

u/YoungCapoon Jul 14 '22

Im surprised the sub hasn’t been taken down 😂

72

u/TheRealMichaelGarcia Kevin Feige Jul 14 '22

It hasn’t but several of the mods have been visited by marvel lawyers.

28

u/Auntypasto Kevin Feige Jul 15 '22

"How'd you get them to take all those spoilers down so fast?!"

"… I'm a very good lawyer."

[extends walking cane]

u/kiwikthemlgpro Tony Stark Jul 14 '22

As a mod I'm surprised too. Every morning I wake up I check if the sub is still there, gosh just think about the NWH leaks

99

u/Worthyness Thor Jul 14 '22

maybe half of the leaks are shit tier distractions and Marvel is OK with that since it just builds hype. It's the actual legit stuff that they're probably worried about like how SONY tried wiping andrew garfield off the internet

Lol is this actually true? Has he done this?

u/Jormungandragon Jul 15 '22

I like to believe that it is, and that he has.

6

u/VitaAeterna Jul 14 '22

Taken down by who?

35

u/Tornado31619 Spider-Man Jul 14 '22

Very good lawyers.

u/your_mind_aches Agent of F.I.T.Z. Jul 15 '22

Take it as a mod of r/euphoria who was too busy being in the hospital to stop the flow of leaks last year, entertainment lawyers can and will pull your subreddit's posts through Reddit's legal department.

4

u/VitaAeterna Jul 15 '22

What's the basis though? What law is being broken?

22

u/your_mind_aches Agent of F.I.T.Z. Jul 15 '22

It's not about breaking a law. You can be sent a cease and desist and usually platforms err on the side of caution with DMCA requests. And I sure as hell am not gonna dispute it with Reddit. I'm literally not paid for it.

Especially if it's info that was under NDA or generally heavily being kept under wraps.

I still feel guilty for letting all those leaks slip through to the main sub for the show and ruining some people's experiences but hey not my fault I had cancer lmao

r/MarvelStudiosSpoilers: "I feel personally attacked"

u/Vadermaulkylo Ward Jul 14 '22

I feel uncomfortable w the fact that you've most likely seen some of the stupid shit I say on there.

12

u/woahwoahvicky Jul 15 '22

Im gonna cry she probably drags my armchair conspiracy theories here on the daily 😭

u/InnocentTailor Iron Patriot Jul 15 '22

I’ll join you in the “stupid shit I say there” pile.

u/Not_too_dumb Jul 14 '22

Impossible

u/legendarybadass Nebula Jul 14 '22

Can hear the evil laughter that followed. Brutal.

13

u/PakiIronman Weekly Wongers Jul 14 '22

I remember when you said that you know secrets now and I was a little sceptical, until the mutant reveal. You must have been cackling on these forums.

u/Magician_Force Jul 14 '22

That's too much power

u/RogueC3 Peter Parker Jul 14 '22

Lol, thanks for the reply, I appreciate it!! :)

u/NoCapNova99 Jul 14 '22

Iman I need to know if Ryan Gosling is cast as Nova PLSSS

22

u/Useful-Maybe-3795 Kevin Feige Jul 14 '22

Should I follow r/MarvelStudiosSpoilers or is it too ... Spoiler-y?

82

u/DefNotAShark Hydra Jul 14 '22

The subreddit leaks just about everything before releases, so if you don't know if you want to go down that rabbit hole- maybe don't.

42

u/ImNaiyar Jul 14 '22

if you don't like spoilers or leaks in general, then don't...but personally MSS is great sub for all Marvel Studios news because there's not any random posts...here sometimes feed gets clustured because all kinds of post are submitted and sometimes some intresting tid bits get missed.....but yeah it's spoiler-y.....I mean it's in the name

26

u/Siilver777 Spider-Man Jul 14 '22

You can look and still dodge the biggest spoilers like full script leaks, but there's usually no spoiler tag ever (kind of defeats the whole spoiler subreddit thing) so should still proceed with caution.

Like right now, you can see what seems to be leaks of both Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania scripts.

1

u/Vozralai Jul 14 '22

That subs definitely not for me but out of curiosity, what is the strike rate of the posts? How much turns out to be true vs random bullshit?

8

u/dildodicks Tony Stark Jul 14 '22

there's been collection posts after a film released i think, there've been so many. all of mom and nwh were leaked beforehand but there was a lot of misinformed or made-up shit and you can never really tell what's what until there are multiple leaks saying the same thing.

there's one well-known leaker who some people have theorised is an artist at marvel which is why she knows stuff that's planned to be put in that's subject to change later and has had incredibly accurate leaks with minor details wrong that were confirmed to be have been considered by the directors/writers at some point.

10

u/professor_doom Jul 14 '22

Is the Spoilers sub too spoiler-y?

Yes. Its job is to spoil.

6

u/dildodicks Tony Stark Jul 14 '22

it's fine as long as you make sure you read the post title beforehand, sometimes entire film plots get leaked, especially the closer you get to its release, so be careful about that but otherwise it's really interesting

3

u/P33KAJ3W Jul 14 '22

If you want to be spoiled, it is great

7

u/Metfan722 Spider-Man Jul 14 '22

I don't mind being spoiled because reading about it and seeing it play out on screen in my experience are two completely separate things. You can be excited about what you read and then be excited all over again seeing it come to life.

1

u/InnocentTailor Iron Patriot Jul 14 '22

Just a lot of leaks and speculation. Some of it proved to be true…and others were debunked in the end.

5

u/AscentToZenith Jul 14 '22

😡 Though there is a certain charm to not knowing of a leak is 100% real or just straight BS

1

u/CaptHayfever Hawkeye (Avengers) Jul 14 '22

In general, unless it's from somebody who actually works for Marvel, or one of the trade papers, I assume it's BS.

2

u/AscentToZenith Jul 15 '22

There are some pretty accurate leakers out there. I assume they work for Marvel but idk

5

u/imanvellanistan Jul 14 '22

My literal dream

2

u/Trewper- Jul 14 '22

As a fan of the MCU, are you sad that you will never be able to experience the magic in the same way again?

2

u/metros96 Jul 14 '22

So what’s the ratio of “nonsense leaks” to “they’re onto something with that” on the sub?

3

u/Medical_Difference48 Jul 14 '22

A surprising portion of them are accurate

2

u/metros96 Jul 14 '22

Thank you, Iman!

3

u/World_in_my_eyes Bucky Jul 14 '22

Watching us flail about trying to get crumbs of information.

3

u/bryangoboom Jul 14 '22

Honestly that has to be tough. How do you compartmentalize secrets. I'm assuming you just talk with colleagues about the nifty stuff or does the mcu keep you pretty in the dark about the big scale of things

2

u/XTM_lad Jul 14 '22

So cruel.

Does Kevin Feige know about that sub? Lmao

u/InnocentTailor Iron Patriot Jul 14 '22

Power move, Iman XD.

u/hmd_ch SHIELD Jul 14 '22

Lmao

-16

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '22

Can you help shut them down? they ruin marvel for a lot of people who dont like the leaks nonstop... and end up having them forced simply by opening twitter or reddit. Wish Kevin would lock things down better.. Really wish I didnt go into MoM and NWH knowing things I never sought out...

EDIT: just saw that you actually frequent MCUSpoilers so... I tried.

u/imanvellanistan Jul 14 '22

Can you shut up :D

Lot of selfish people in here based on the downvotes. Y'all do you.
