Watchlist for Doomsday

So its kinda obvious that the 4 main things to watch before Doomsday are Endgame, Loki S1 & 2, Thunderbolts*, and Fantastic Four

But what about the big multiverse movies? Are No Way Home, Multiverse of Madness, and Deadpool & Wolverine not required viewings even though they're really the only films that handled the multiverse plot line?

We all know Quantummania was build up to nothing so that doesn't matter anymore.

And what about the Marvels? If this is X-Men universe that was apart of that post credit scene then why wasn't Monica announced for the film?

This is all seems like kind of a mess and I just want to know what properly marathon for the months leading up to next December.

*Multiverse of Madness* is definitely included in the watchlist, because we don’t really see Strange in the first *Doomsday* film. He will likely be off-world in the Dark Dimension, and watching *Multiverse of Madness* helps explain why he isn’t there—otherwise random YouTubers will claim he was “fired,” which causes confusion.

*No Way Home* is also essential, because it tells Spider-Man’s reboot story. We also get *Brand New Day*, which may provide some setup for *Doomsday*.

*Deadpool 3* is surely connected to *Doomsday* as well—they even showed Thor crying over Deadpool’s death, so to understand what’s going on, watching *Deadpool 3* is a must.

*The Marvels* should also be on the list, since it gives the MCU a chance to bring the entire X-Men team in through portals.

In *Quantumania*, Kang says they will see “more like him,” which can now be interpreted to mean more villains will emerge even if Kang himself is gone. That makes it fit into Doom’s timeline.

*Brave New World* is also part of the list.

>they even showed Thor crying over Deadpool’s death

That was a joke that used footage from Thor 2.

I’d watch those you listed just cause they are really good movies that help you explore the characters

Some you grow to love, some to hate. It’s the world building that’s important. Then you understand the little one-off side jokes they make so often lol but more importantly the MCU does a good job of keeping everything flowing well and coherent- for the most part.

Realistically you could get away with watching none and still enjoy doomsday, but that’s not the way they try to write their stories and if you like comic book content enjoy it all cause realistically we don’t know how much longer we have with people like Disney or Warner brothers wasting such high budgets and efforts on super hero content.

Watch Loki, MoM, and DPW. That's enough.

marvelcomics222025-11-30 06:10

For The Plot: Loki

For The Characters: X-Men, Endgame, Brave New World, Thunderbolts\*, First Steps

No_Choice_63872025-11-30 06:29

I didn't hate BNW but I also don't want to watch it ever again

Sunshine1452025-11-30 06:15

This isn't Infinity Saga, just watch the characters you like and you're good

Toshimoko292025-11-30 06:35

It probably seems like a mess because you’re trying to guess what will lead into a movie that is a year away from release, that we only have a partial cast list for, and no idea what the story will actually be. It’s not like you don’t have a year to watch everything you want, just watch it all.

Wait for Doomsday then rewatch everything you think was referenced.

ihatebrooms2025-11-30 10:54

You've got over a year. Are you really that pressed for time?

I can't watch End Game without first watching Infinity War. So add that.

DS2 is worth it as DoomsDay \*could\* show or resolve where Strange went with Clea and could have either mention of "recovering" Wanda or outright scenes of one or multiple teams looking for Wanda to add her to their side.

I would do DP&W as the way they connect to the TVA could one into play to a degree.

Not sure how essential Guardians 3 is, assuming you've seen it before and know where it leaves Quill on the chess board.

Same thing with The Marvels. if you have already seen it, not sure how essential is a rewatch is as you know that Carol and Kamala work together now and you know where Monica is(and with who) on the chess board.
