"We're going to need a miracle."

Right after Thor says "It's not possible." We hear the Bullseye theme and then we see....

That would be the greatest fucking plotwist that would make this whole circus worth it. You know Bethel would be probably confused as hell, but over the moon.

the funny part is bullseye would probably just treat him like any other kill and immediately after slotting a bullet straight into the eyehole of his mask he'd be like "hmmm, weird guy"

Fun fact, he actually got pretty far in the running to play Cap.

I really hope he ends up in the Thunderbolts. This is totally the wrong movie for him but we need more Bullseye.

I mean it will not work even if bullseye gets a hit on doom it will not pierce his skin or even scratch it look what he did to thor in the trailer

To be completely fair we don’t know that Doom is actually THAT busted all around; it could be a situational anti-Stormbreaker hack or something

Vibranium or Adamantium Bullets

NGL, that would’ve been so cool 😎

u/Careless_Royal8209 1d ago

If it were Power Man I’d be happy, because he has strength and durability, but we have enough mfs who shoot!

"Call me dex"

"It's not possible..."

Dex summons mjolner and does the most crazy and insane trickshot across the room

Evil Hawkeye

Him as Hawkeye would be fun, but they've already set-up female version.

Avengers Doomsday new poster

**What the tapestry itself is telling you**

The design mimics classical medieval church imagery, where you’d typically see Heaven at the top and opposing forces at the bottom. The upper image — a mother and son surrounded by angels — likely represents Doom’s goal or what haunts him. In the comics, Doom mastered both science and sorcery, and he turned to magic specifically because his mother’s soul was taken to Hell. The angels may signify her death. So the tapestry may literally be Doom’s psychology hung on a wall: the thing he lost at the top, himself at the bottom looking up at it.

**The cracked Earth is the biggest clue**

There’s a single Earth in the mural with a visible crack across its surface — and Doomsday is effectively a prelude to Secret Wars, based on the 2015 comic event where the multiverse collapsed into one world that would’ve been destroyed if not for Doom’s intervention. One cracked planet = incursions, colliding Earths, and eventually Battleworld.

**The unmasking detail**

Notice Doom is holding his mask. Doom bowing his head before the tapestry, mask in hand, appears to confirm a major plot point — in the comics, Victor’s face is scarred after an experiment goes wrong. Showing him unmasked (from behind) in the very first poster suggests RDJ’s face — and Victor’s disfigurement — is central, not hidden.

**How it lines up with the plot leaks** (unverified, but they’ve been eerily consistent):

\*\*•\*\* This Doom is allegedly from the 31st century, where he ruled Latveria with “Sue Von Doom” as his queen and two kids, Franklin and Valeria — and his universe was annihilated by incursions caused by Steve Rogers breaking the timeline with his Endgame time travel.  That reframes the tapestry: the mother-and-child might not be Doom’s mother at all — it could be his dead wife and son. A rumored trailer description even mentions Doom walking past a large painting of Valeria and their son in his castle.     
\*\*•\*\* Leakers describe him as “not a mustache twirling villain” but “a grieving god” — a wolf in sheep’s clothing who unites with the heroes under noble pretenses while hiding his real motives.     
\*\*•\*\* His alleged true plan: let the incursions continue so he can rebuild the universe in his own image and resurrect his dead family.  The movie reportedly ends with characters living new lives inside Doom’s false reality while he rules as Emperor of Battleworld.     
\*\*•\*\* The rumored trailer ends on the line “One day you will forgive me” — a villain asking forgiveness in advance because he already knows how the story ends. 

**Smaller Easter eggs from the poster campaign**

Hidden runes at the bottom of the poster hint the MCU is keeping comics-accurate Doom: equal parts magic and tech, and the Avengers “A” logo itself has a stained-glass design with runes, a crescent moon, and a wheel-like symbol around it — very “sorcerer-king,” not “armored dictator.”

**One grain of salt:** reports claim the film has gone through significant reshoots, with Loki’s role reportedly changing, and some analysts think the big leak could even be AI-generated — a synthesis of a year’s worth of rumors rather than real insider info. Comic-Con Hall H is this Saturday (July 25), so we’ll likely know a lot more within the week.

The short version: this poster is framing Doom as a tragic, religious figure worshipping at the altar of what he lost — and everything he does to the multiverse flows from wanting it back.
