The biggest storyline in the saga involves half the universe dissolving into ash \u2014 an onscreen phenomenon that slowly takes the lives of many beloved characters, including a terrified child. Speaking of children, the most recent film in the franchise made allusions to human trafficking, in a haunting opening title sequence and even allowed its leads time to reconcile with their stolen childhoods.<\/p>\n<p>But despite onscreen deaths and various dark <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">theme<\/a>s, Marvel films have maintained their PG-13 ratings, keeping things safe for\u00a0younger members of the fanbase. They manage by rarely delving too far into bleak territory (at least not visually), and though action-packed, the films skirt past extremely graphic violence. Plus, save for one slip-up by the Captain \u201cLanguage\u201d America himself, Marvel <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">movies<\/a> are usually a swear-free zone.<\/p>\n<p>But we recently learned that keeping things kid-appropriate means sacrificing interesting ideas \u2014 including one potential plotline on the upcoming Disney+ animated\u00a0<em>Marvel\u2019s <strong>What If\u2026?<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<!-- SlashFilm_300x250_In_Post --><br \/>\nSpeaking on <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/what-if-interviews-the-suicide-squad-review-free-guy-review\/id1526064988?i=1000531289823\">The Post Credit Podcast<\/a>, <em>What If\u2026?<\/em> writer <strong>A.C. Bradley<\/strong> admitted that one potential plotline was abandoned for fear of being too dark for younger audiences. She said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThere were a couple of episodes that were just a little too dark\u2026 There was an original \u2018What If\u2019\u2019 run where Spider-Man turns into a real spider, and that was just too dark and too body horror for their PG-13 [rating].\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The image of a young, rosy-cheeked Peter Parker making the horrifying transformation into an eight-legged creeper is enough to make you shudder.<\/p>\n<p>The animation might have made things more lighthearted and bearable than they sound,\u00a0but the more spider-phobic amongst us would not have appreciated the plotline. Still, there\u2019s something creepily exciting about emphasizing the <em>spider<\/em> in Spider-Man. An entire episode through the eight eyes of Peter Parker could\u2019ve been fun \u2014even though he would be very hard to look at.<br \/>\n<!-- SlashFilm_300x250_In_Post_2 --><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-690289 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/marvel-whatif-shards-700x392.jpg\" alt=\"Marvel's What If Interview\" width=\"700\" height=\"392\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/marvel-whatif-shards.jpg 700w, https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/marvel-whatif-shards-360x202.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Creativity_of_What_If\"><\/span>The Creativity of What If<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Bradley also spoke about other limitations placed on the writers. For the most part, she shared that they were allotted plenty of freedom with storylines.<\/p>\n<p>Like the famous run of comics, Marvel\u2019s <em>What If\u2026?<\/em> is meant to wander into strange territory. It plucks characters from the settings we know and disrupts crucial points in their backstories. They become jumbled with others and severely altered because of it. So when it came to choosing storylines, the limitations were mostly practical, not creative. Bradley said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt was less about being reeled back in from crazier stories, it was more about being stopped from walking into one of the movies and destroying that.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>For a while, fans speculated that <em>What If\u2026?<\/em> would be entirely independent \u2014 a fun way to explore alternate worlds but utterly inconsequential to the rest of the series. However, the recent Marvel shows, including <em><strong>WandaVision<\/strong><\/em> but especially <em><strong>Loki<\/strong><\/em>, might indicate otherwise. Crossovers and long-lasting implications are not entirely out of the question.<br \/>\n<!-- SlashFilm_300x250_In_Post_3 -->Hilariously, Bradley also shared that the MCU is not the only universe the series tried to mess with. She teased:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe would jokingly try to put <em><strong>Star Wars<\/strong><\/em> in and were always told, \u2018No, you can\u2019t do that, those aren\u2019t your toys Ashley.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Based on what we\u2019ve already seen,\u00a0<em>What If\u2026?<\/em> found plenty of ways to have fun with the many characters of the MCU. Still, it\u2019s a shame they couldn\u2019t wreak havoc on the many other Disney universes\u2026 But we can always hold out hope for season 2.<\/p>\n<p>Marvel\u2019s\u00a0<em>What If\u2026?<\/em>\u00a0premieres on Disney+ on\u00a0<strong>August 11, 2021<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>                            <strong>Cool Posts From Around the Web:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>                            <!-- \/post -->\n                        <\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
