Bloody hell.... That is a line up of stories!!!

Excited!!

[Sway]

Annoying they still haven't managed to resolve the Spiderman issue wrt Civil War...

Also, wondering how they've managed to get the full cast of Avengers to sign up for another couple of films - isn't there an issue with RDW being contracted for one less film than the current 3 Avengers plus the Iron Man films?

[Civpilot]

Well Iron man is pretty much confirmed for "Captain America: Civil War" to stand against Steve Rogers, but at no time has he confirmed for another stand alone Iron man, in fact I'm pretty sure Downey Jnr has flat out said no. And again this is pretty much confirmed by Iron Man 4 being absent from this list.

I am prepared for Avengers 3 and 4 having a largely new line up of avengers... there will be a few extra "Avengers" around by then and maybe minus a key one if they stick to a certain story line... plus I think involving Thanos (which the Infinity storyline will) I would say that a certain bunch of 'losers' will also make the cross over

[MiniMan64]

That is a simply awesome line up, can't believe they've gone a no confirmed that line up already! Two more Avengers movies! Definitely Infinity! I'm reading that Cucumberpatch is going to be Stephen Strange too.

All got to be a response to DCs announcement of their line up I guess?

I see where you're coming from on the RDW side of things - suppose I was fixed on him being in Avengers 3.

Guess I struggle a little with Marvel being able to maintain the momentum they've built - I think a key part of that is the character development for non geeks enabled by the standalone movies. Introducing new characters (especially superheroes instead of amazingly gifted humans like Black Widow and Hawkeye) into a group movie will be a big challenge...

That is true, bringing in new movies about obscure stuff will be hard.... but look what happened with "Guardians of the Galaxy". That movie is just gold and I know so many people who love it who had never heard of the comic.

I think (hope) they get similar success with "Antman" as it will make people more open to seeing the characters they don't know. And if the other movies don't do quite as well then they could always throw money at RDJ (Civil war storyline depending) to put the bums on seats.

I think RDW will be very unlikely to do an IM4 but I could easily see him appearing plenty more times in almost cameo roles, "leading" the Avengers as it was, almost like the Fury role has been for Phase 1/2, appearing less and less as movies progress. There's a lot of new characters coming online after all.

Or maybe they'll go for a character twist on the ending of the Civil War story with CA although having them both check out might be too much for the MCU to cope with.

I found this comment interesting too

Marvel movie mastermind Kevin Feige reveals: "Events of the whole cinematic universe will make all governments in the world want regulation. Not so much about secret identity, but about who reports to who."

Which says to me that they can't make the Spider-Man crossover happen.

[Lincsblokey]

Soo much for us all to look forward too!

[GarryDK]

If they follow Civil war properly then

Cap will die at the end meaning a make way for a new Avenger, which should be Dr Strange or Antman, and Ironman will become inactive as the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

After Cap 3 Chris Evans is only signed on for 1 more film

Likely to be cameos in either flashbacks or timey wimey stuff in Avengers 3:1&2.

[Beefmeister]

This is quite good, showing all the superhero movies coming up (obviously made before the big announcement):

[MiniMan64]

It's good but it needs some updating after this week!

So, basically, the same old tired CGI crap over and over and over and over and over and over again?
Even the Dad's Army remake is looking promising compared to this crop of auto-movies.

Good for you, but a series of films that run:
SuperpowerMan
SuperpowerMan 2
SuperpowerMan: Rejigged
SuperpowerMan: Genesis
SuperpowerMan: Origins of Genesis
SuperpowerMan 3 ()
SuperpowerMan: Rejigged Again.
SuperpowerMen: Army of Superpower
SuperpowerGirl: The Power of Tits
SuperpowerMan: Here We Go Again
Bit....samey innit?

The fact there are a few "Marvel: Untitled movie" and "Unknown Superman movie" or whatever says that this schedule has nothing to do with story, content or progession and is simply the studio accountants and marketing men saying "Yeah, 'bout time for another Batman movie. Fans'll be ready to buy a load more merchandise and DVDs by now"

Exactly that. Tired CGI stuff along with tired effects explosions and tired stuntmen stunts. Oh, and tired editing and makeup and stuff.

Boring.

Ignoring the fact that effects have been around since the 1920's, and the stories are pulled from an exceptionally rich, well written and diverse pool created over the last half century...

At least we agree on something.

and that the source material (like Star Trek) addresses quite a few social issues, especially in a time when it wasn't the done thing
