Since I learnt that Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania might be essential prior viewing for Loki Season 2, despite that film getting bad reviews, I planned to watch it but put it off. Now Loki Season 2 is out but I still haven’t seen Quantumania.
Is it impermissible to just skip the movie? I also only watched half of Multiverse of Madness. Does it matter? I just want to see Loki
Nope
not yet. only one episode in though. I wondered how they’re going to play Kang in this series.
Tentatively, since there’s only one episode of season 2 of Loki out, no. The first episode basically takes up right where season 1 left off. I didn’t notice any huge references to anything beyond the prior season of Loki.
But that might change if later episodes use anything from Quantumania.
I thought maybe Quantumania would automatically be referenced when Jonathan Majors (Kang / He Who Remains) comes back in since he’s in both projects
I can’t say specifically for these shows, but I’d say you’re probably fine to watch your show
I don’t keep up with the MCU, but I was able to watch Multiverse of Madness without watching Wandavision or whatever else is required viewing and everything still made sense.
There’s probably going to be inside jokes or references that you’ll miss out on, but unless it’s very badly written then you shouldn’t be lost watching it
Don’t worry, the writers of that movie weren’t allowed to watch WandaVision beforehand either.
Were they actually disallowed from watching it or are you just joking that it seems like the writers had no understanding of it?
I only ask because apparently the actors in The Last of Us TV series weren’t allowed to play the game beforehand, seems like a questionable ‘creative process’
I have really enjoyed most Marvel content, but Quantumania was hot garbage. If Loki starts to build on it, I’ll probably stop watching it.
