It might not yet even be October, but December will be here sooner than you think. And with December comes one of the biggest movie events of the year: Avengers: Doomsday. With 38 movies and another 15 series making up the Marvel Cinematic Universe, trying to catch up on or rewatch everything can feel like a massive undertaking. That’s even before factoring in the Fox X-Men movies that are now applicable to the upcoming storyline.

In order to make things seem more manageable, Disney+ has highlighted the titles most necessary to revisit ahead of Doomsday‘s December 18 release. Now, in the app, a green highlight has been added to all of the movies and shows that need attention. There is also a section dedicated to the countdown to Doomsday.

The titles highlighted include:

• X-Men
• X2
• Captain America: The First Avenger
• Avengers
• Avengers: Infinity War
• Avengers: Endgame
• Loki (series)
• Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings
• Spider-Man: No Way Home
• Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
• Captain America: Brand New World
• Deadpool & Wolverine
• Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness
• Thunderbolts*
• The Fantastic 4: First Steps

Additionally, the re-release of Avengers: Endgame is still in theaters and contains bonus content for Doomsday.
