Fun things to do in Denver this Valentine's Day weekend
" Mortified," an experimental theater program, podcast and Prime Video series, is bringing its signature mix of comedy and cringe-worthy confessionals to Denver with a special love-themed edition.
Why it matters: The two-show event, dubbed " Doomed Valentine's," is perfect for a fun date night — or anyone looking to laugh off their last relationship.
What to expect: Brave adults dig through their teenage vaults to share their most awkward and angsty journal entries, poems, letters and lyrics in front of an audience of total strangers.
Their (unfortunately) true tales will focus on love found and love lost … but let's be real, mostly lost.
If you go:
📍 Where: The Oriental Theater
📅 When: Friday at 6:30pm and 9pm (each show runs 1 hour, 45 minutes)
🎟️ Tickets: $25

Kevin Feige Talks Thunderbolts* Post-Credit Scene, If It Connects to Fantastic Four Movie
Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige recently opened up about the mysterious post-credits scene in Thunderbolts* and what it could mean for The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Speaking to Empire Magazine, Feige was asked about the post-credits scene. In it, the New Avengers can be seen talking about their lack of support from society when they notice a spaceship has entered orbit. After taking a look, the spaceship is revealed to be none other than the Excelsior, the Fantastic Four's ship. Although Feige confirmed that the ship does indeed look like the one that belongs to the group, he then teased that the ship might not be the 'same ship' people are thinking of. 'Their ship is the Excelsior, and there is a Fantastic Four ship entering the MCU . . . But I'm not sure they're the same ship,' Feige teased. Fans were quick to begin theorizing on what Feige could have meant. The leading theory for most fans is that the ship is being piloted by none other than Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom. However, it remains to be seen when the post-credits scene is taking place, as many have also theorized the scene could be a moment from 2026's Avengers: Doomsday. Thankfully for fans, more information will come soon when The Fantastic Four: First Steps arrives in theaters on July 25, 2025. (Source: Empire)

Kevin Feige Hints That THUNDERBOLTS*'s Big FANTASTIC FOUR Tease Might Not Be What We Think — GeekTyrant
Marvel fans thought they had it all figured out after Thunderbolts* ended with that jaw-dropper of a post-credits scene. It features a mysterious ship entering Earth-616's atmosphere, right as the New Avengers were still struggling to win over public trust. Naturally, speculation exploded… Was that the Fantastic Four finally arriving from a dying reality? And why wouldn't we think that!? The ship had a big Fantastic Four logo on the side of it! But Kevin Feige is here to cool our jets a bit. In the latest issue of Empire Magazine, the Marvel Studios head was asked if that ship was the Excelsior, the signature craft of Marvel's First Family. His response? Classic Feige mischief: "Well, the name of their ship is the Excelsior, and there is a Fantastic Four ship entering the MCU in the tag, but I'm not sure they're the same ship." Not. The. Same. Ship? This implies that the the Fantastic Four might not be on that ship, and if they aren't on board, then who is? There are a few possibilities being tossed around online. One theory is that The Fantastic Four sent Franklin Richards alone, maybe to escape Doctor Doom and prevent him from getting his hands on multiverse-warping powers. Another, is that Doom himself stole the Excelsior and is using Reed Richards' tech to break through the multiversal veil. That would flip the script entirely… imagine expecting Marvel's most first family walking off the ship and getting Victor Von Doom instead, and Victor Von Doom that looks exactly like Tony Stark. Whatever the truth is, The Fantastic Four: First Steps , which drops next month, isn't guaranteed to answer it. That tease may be a slow burn, setting us up for something much bigger in Avengers: Doomsday . Feige's cryptic wordplay is nothing new. But if there's one thing we can count on, it's that the truth will come with some multiversal consequences.
