Yeah, that's what I meant, the former TVA doesn't exist anymore (and never existed) to anyone but Loki and now we have the TCA (Time Conqueror Authority). So in their quest to give the timelines "free will" they just transferred control to another Kang.
We are only told who Sauron is through exposition dumps though. He has zero weight on the Hobbits lives beyond being a guy they were told about.
And that was my point. Multiple instances of the same guy. He's going to be in everything. One Thanos influenced every aspect of phase 3. Kang will be everywhere.
I think technically, yeah? like he's a descendant of a kid Reed's dad has in his time traveling adventures if I understand correctly.
Is he? I have no idea, but now it made me think that maybe Quantumania is gonna be like an origin story for Kang
Could've been a misdirect or a cut scene, similar to Hulk's appearance in Infinity War trailers.
I'm having such a hard time getting my head around it all. How does the bombing of the nexus events make it so he couldn't see beyond what they would do at the end of time? Sorry for asking about all this my head is :poof: [edit] Oh wait, I think I get it. So if they had made a choice to kill or not kill Kang before bombing the nexus events he would have been able to see that.
There is nothing to indicate this is the case. That's just a theory posed by spad3 with no supporting evidence. Episode 3 of the show explains the TVA dealt with Sylvie's bombs with little fanfare. Her plan was to distract them enough that she'd be able to infiltrate the complex and reach the timekeepers' chambers (which she did, but the plan went sideways at the end due to Loki).
Plenty of series only viewers enjoyed this reveal. But I agree, it's not like Sauron in LotR at all. This is a Wizard of Oz nod in almost every way.
Sauron is presented in the very 1st scene of the movies. He is the origin for everything that happens afterwards.
Kang is reveal for a mystery that spanned a whole season. If people don't know who Kang is from the comics how is this answer to that mistery more exciting than the time keepers just being real? Try to look at this from a series only viewer perspective. It's pretty much a random dude that shows up at the last ep and explains a bunch of stuff about himself and multiverses.
This ain't it.
True, although I'm hesitant to believe the general moviegoer won't get confused by it all. I'm guessing Feige keeps him the same actor all the way through.
To be fair… there are plenty of people who likely ain't seen or read WoZ. It's a million years old. But I agree, the parallels were clear from the halfway point and only drew closer as the series went on.
"The fuck??? So it's just some guy who floated there in a balloon that was conveniently never mentioned before? LOL Lazy writing."
As someone who barely knew Thanos and never even knew who Black Panther was....I agree with you.
That "random dude" is going to the next Thanos.

Without a critical-path TVA around to prune branches, alternative TVAs can rise up with different goals.
He Who Remains was the one who brought the multiverse together into a single timeline and kept it together. The TVA is/was meant to prune any branches that managed to wiggle their way free. When HWR died, the string unravlved itself. Also, an alternate Kang filled the void and decided to keep the timelines branching... At least from what Mobius said
Im saying the Hobbits didnt give a fuck about him and could have just lived out their lives... Gandalf, Aragron and Elrond all told them why he was bad. This is what He Who Remains did for Kang.
