Transcript
00:00Hello friends!
00:01Spider- Far From Home is in theaters, giving us our first taste of MCU life post-Avengers
00:05Endgame.
00:06This week on Heat Vision Breakdown, we look at all the twists and turns in the new film
00:09and what they mean for the broader Marvel Universe.
00:11Be warned!
00:12If you haven't seen Far From Home, then ghost this video like is Nick Fury calling you with
00:15a mission, because yes, this video does contain spoilers.
00:18Alfred!
00:19He's our editor, not Batman's butler.
00:21Can we get this spoiler siren going, please?
00:24All right, before we go any further, can we preemptively nominate Ned and Betty for
00:32the MTV Movie Award for Most Adorable Couple?
00:34Is that a category?
00:35You should make it one MTV, and then give it to them.
00:38Okay, sorry, I should probably talk about Spider-Man now.
00:40Following the events of Endgame, Spider-Man is mourning Tony Stark.
00:43Aren't we all?
00:45And like the Hulk in Infinity War, is a little scared to go out there and be a hero.
00:48It gets worse when Tony grants him access to Edith, an extremely powerful AI that Quentin
00:53Beck, aka Mysterio, tricks Peter into handing over.
00:56Why would you ever trust a guy named Quentin?
00:58Mysterio then proceeds to beat Spider-Man up for roughly 90 minutes of screen time until
01:02Peter finally wins, with help from his Peter-tingle.
01:05Yeah.
01:06So things are looking great.
01:07Peter's dating MJ, Aunt May is consciously uncoupled with Happy, and Ned is still his
01:11guy in the chair.
01:12Unfortunately for Peter, but to the delight of audiences, J.K.
01:15Simmons' back is J. Jonah Jameson.
01:17Though this time around he's an Alex Jones-esque figure, and the Daily Bugle is a fringe conspiracy
01:21theory publication.
01:23More like the Daily Bungle, am I right, guys?
01:25No.
01:26Jameson publishes a video Mysterio took before his death, one that appears to show Spidey
01:30given an order to use Edith to execute members of the public.
01:33That liar!
01:34And the video also reveals something quite shocking, Mysterio unveiling Spider-Man's identity
01:39as high school kid Peter Parker.
01:40Ooh.
01:41I know, right?
01:42This is quite a game-changer for Spider-Man.
01:44The MCU is Buck's superhero movie tradition by doing away with secret identities, what with
01:48I Am Iron Man becoming the most famous line in the 23-film saga so far, but Spidey has
01:52always remained anonymous.
01:54Throughout his comic book history, a number of folks, from heroes to villains, have known
01:58Peter's secret, but he was only unmasked to the public once in his nearly 60 years of
02:02history in the 2006-2007 Civil War storyline.
02:05So what does an unmasked Peter Parker mean for the future?
02:08It's possible that he could deny Triple J is thick news.
02:11After all, the Daily Bugle is a conspiracy rag.
02:13In the comics, Matt Murdock was once outed as Daredevil.
02:15And while some members of the public believed the outing, he maintained he was simply a
02:19blind lawyer and went about his life.
02:21Could Peter continue going to school and try to live a normal life as rumors swirled about
02:25him?
02:26Any time he went to the bathroom for too long, I imagine people would start to question
02:28things.
02:29Another option, perhaps he goes full-time with a new Avengers team.
02:33He could continue his studies, perhaps under the tutelage of Bruce Banner or some other
02:36super-smart mentor Nick Fury hires for him, all the while going on big adventures.
02:40Like Pee-Wee.
02:41The second post-credits scene in Far From Home was potentially an even bigger move,
02:46one that hints at the overall future of the MCU.
02:48It's revealed that Maria Hill and Nick Fury were actually Skrulls the entire movie.
02:53With Ben Mendelsohn's Captain Marvel character calling Fury to tell him that their plans to
02:56give Peter Edith somewhat went awry.
02:58Nice going, Talos, you green idiot.
03:01We cut to Fury, who appears to be on a beach, but is actually on a ship full of Skrulls, apparently
03:05overseeing some sort of big operation.
03:07So what's going on, here's a few options.
03:10Perhaps Fury has taken on a role revealed in 2014's original Sin comic book, in which
03:14we found out the one-eyed S.H.I.E.L.D.
03:15commander had secretly been Earth's first line of defense, going about the galaxy looking
03:19for threats that could harm his planet.
03:21Or perhaps Fury is helping prepare for a Kree-Skrull war.
03:24After all, Captain Marvel established that there are Kree bad guys out there oppressing
03:27poor Skrulls.
03:28Jerks.
03:29As well as Kree soldier is still alive after all, for all we know, and he doesn't seem
03:33like a guy who takes defeat in stride.
03:35In the comics, the storyline saw the Kree-Skrull galactic war hit Earth, with the Avengers
03:39caught up in it.
03:40So he might be setting the pieces for such a confrontation to happen in the film.
03:43Little is known about Marvel's upcoming slate.
03:45There are films like Black Widow, Eternals, Shang-Chi, Black Panther 2, Doctor Strange 2, and Guardians
03:52of the Galaxy Vol. 3 all in the works.
03:54But we don't know where this Nick Fury storyline fits in.
03:56Is it part of a build-up that will take 10 years?
03:58I mean, Sam Jackson would be in his 80s by then.
04:01For the love of Feige, somebody tell me what's going on here!
04:04Hey, Spider-Man.
04:05Oh my god, can you tell us what's happening in the MCU?
04:07No, can you validate my parking?
04:09I don't validate parking!
04:11So what do you guys think Spider-Man Far From Home means for the Marvel Cinematic Universe
04:14going forward?
04:15What does it mean that Peter Parker's identity has been revealed?
04:17Are you a little annoyed that the multiverse theory that we've all been talking about turned
04:20out to be complete bullsh**?
04:21Let us know in the comments right down there.

04:33Hey, do you want some pushback?
04:37Oh!
04:38Thanks, Spider-Man.
04:39Of course.
04:40You're done.
04:47Yeah.
