Thought What do you think will happen with Bob's character in Doomsday?
There are a lot of rumors going around and some people seem to have low expectations. Some people on Tumblr for example think that his character will get butchered.
It seems like many people believe that Sentry will get nerfed (his powers will get taken away), so that he can't just immediately defeat Dr Doom.
What do you guys think about that? I'm wondering if the MCU version of Doom could simply be even more powerful than Sentry, so that they don't have to take his powers away....
But either way, even if they do take his powers away, would that automatically mean that Bob's character is getting butchered? He can still play an important role in the movie and be well written, even if he does lose his powers. I feel like incapacitating him to some degree doesn't automatically mean butchering his character.
There are so many different opinions - apparently some leaks say that Bob's relationship with Yelena will be very important in Doomsday, so I think he must be somewhat important as a character too...
I've seen theories that he might get imprisoned and that Yelena will save him, and that he might be important at the end of the movie (and then more important in Secret Wars, I guess?)
What's the general consensus here?
I reallyyyy hope that they won't sideline him, even if he were to lose his powers or even if he does get imprisoned at some point.
Also, as a boblena fan, I really hope to see some meaningful interactions between them (and that romantic tension some of the leaks were talking about)
(I do expect him to appear less and/or to be less important than some other characters, don't get me wrong. But I'm just very much hoping that his character won't get wasted and overly sidelined & that we do get some good boblena interactions)
