I can't believe that they're keeping Thanos's legacy alive when we see him in post endgame projects if he's important to plot relevance or a background character.

He dies twice in endgame after atomising the stones and from being dusted from a 2014 era. Then he dies in What if S1 and Multiverse of madness, and then he gets sucked by a portal in S3 and then gets pushed by a disabled Black panther by sacrifice himself which lets infinity hulk to come into play. It feels like people still got those nostalgia flashbacks but that's not a bad thing.

Wooden_Passage_26122025-10-15 22:56

I think it’s because they want people to always be thinking about the good old days of the infinity saga

Wooden_Passage_26122025-10-15 22:58

People and fans like me obviously and others are living that those memories and nostalgia

Like bringing back RDJ to play Dr Doom instead of at least a dozen actors they could have picked instead?

Not even trying to hate on that decision, we’ll see how it works, but it is a more extreme example of clinging to nostalgia than the continued use of Thanos

With doom that's different.

What If? is meant to explore the same characters in different ways.

We had the full blown tragic triumphant Thanos...I am glad to have seen the Guardian Thanos, Zombie Thanos and the egg-hunter Thanks.

Thanos set a bar for power level in the mcu that even casuals get. Hes an easy reference point now.

What can't you believe? I understand what your point is

The man said it himself.

"I am inevitable".

Thanos is a nexus event in every timeline.

Nostalgia aside, this is exactly why I don't want there to be a moment where Doom takes out Thanos' spine to demonstrate how powerful his God Emperor status is in the MCU. It won't mean shit when Thanos has died in way worse, weirder, and easier ways in past Multiverse Saga projects.

> It feels like people still got those nostalgia flashbacks

Arguably that's the whole point of What If...

The premise is basically "hey remember this moment?" but swap some characters to see how it changes the story.
