New Thor: Love & Thunder Trailer Reactions + Obi-Wan Kenobi Theories

On this episode of X-Ray Vision, Jason Concepcion and Rosie Knight ride the Goat Boat! First in Previously On (3:45), Jason and Rosie discuss the possibilities of the new MCU Daredevil show on Disney+, as reported by Variety, talk about Kathleen Kennedy’s comments in Vanity Fair regarding recasting legacy Star Wars characters (including a HOT TAKE on remaking the prequels), then analyze and theorize about what to expect from the Obi-Wan Kenobi series based on the Disney+UK watchlist (we’ll be diving deeeep into Kenobi itself next episode!). In the Airlock (40:13), Jason and Rosie dive deep (deeeep) into the latest Thor: Love and Thunder trailer – offering reactions, easter eggs, a whole host of theories, AND an explainer on some of the most mystifying cosmic Marvel lore there is. PLUS, since Jason and Rosie love you, they give their initial NON-SPOILER reactions to the upcoming Ms. Marvel series, landing on June 8 on Disney+.
