Avengers movie discussion (news/etc.)

[Dr.Strangefate]

I doubt he'll be in the first one as well; probably the sequel.

If he's in it, he'll be the leader of the Skrulls, not a separate entity.

 

[The Overlord]

Ugh. Never cared for him.

Which Avengers villains do you like? The Ultimates didn't really have much of a rogues gallery, the main villains in that series, Loki and the Skrulls, have appeared or likely will appear in the first movie. So who does that leave us with from the 616 universe? I like Ultron, but he would need a fair amount of set up and robots who want to exterminate humans is a bit done in the movies. Kang would be hard to do in the movies, time travel is always tricky in stories like this. They don't have the rights to Magneto or Dr. Doom, I don't think the Masters of Evil would work. Thanos would be the biggest, most epic villain they have access to.

Dude, The W., Abomination, Comrade Crimson along with Loki, Skrulls, Red Skull. I've never liked Ultron. I don't enjoy time travel stories without Rip Hunter's involvement. Mags and Doom are licensed to Fox if I'm not mistaken. Thanos with some Adam Warlock action. But if that was ever the case the Avengers sequel could be a great jump-off point for an epic Marvel space opera.

 

[Ultimate Houde]

Rip Hunter is DC.

 

[J. Agamemnon]

Rip Hunter is DC.

REGARDLESS, those are the only time travel stories I enjoy.

Ultron would probably be the best choice. Baron Zemo could work. Thanos is too cosmic; I don't want the Avengers to get cosmic.

 

[Bass]

I thin Dr Doom should be an Avengers villain.

 

[Jaggyd]

I agree. At least we're getting Doom in season 2 of Earth's Mightiest Heroes.

I don't really want any movie to be cosmic but they made it work in Thor

I haven't seen Thor yet, but in the comics Thor never struck me as a cosmic character. I know there were a lot of cosmic elements and he interacted with cosmic characters, but it was never a cosmic comic to me. He's a mythological figure; it's a fantasy comic more than anything.

Maybe it's just me, but mythology does not equal cosmic.

Doctor Who.

 

[J. Agamemnon]

Doctor Who.

I like Doctor Who as a personality. The adventures are fun, but the plots always suck.

It is NOT just you. I agree wholeheartedly.

*cough-cough*

 

[Random]

I like can anyone guess why?

 

[DARKKNIGHT]

I like can anyone guess why?

Scarlett Johansson in a skin-tight black body suit?

Middle stripe?

 

[Random]

Middle stripe?

Correct

Scarlett Johansson in a skin-tight black body suit?

This also would have been an acceptable answer

 

[ProjectX2]

I like can anyone guess why?

Stripes!

I am excited.

 

[Jaggyd]

I love the fact that it looks like Hawkeye is going to put a shaft into the back of Cap's head.

 

[Zombipanda]

No.

They're saving that for the inevitable **** parody.

 

[Planet-man]

Hahaha, awesome.

Edit: This post refers to the poster and Random's response.

Wait. What?

::shock:

 

[Captain Canuck]

Wait. What?

::shock:

arrow shaft. calm down.

 

[Void.M]

I agree. At least we're getting Doom in season 2 of Earth's Mightiest Heroes.

Seriously? Awesome!

Anyway, i think Zemo and the Masters could work for the sequel. Ultron too, especially as a way to introduced Pym.

Some obscure villains like Morgan le fey or Graviton wouldn't be bad either.

 

[the watcher]

Bootleg trailer see it while you can.

the second video still works.

 

[DARKKNIGHT]

Even as not the biggest Marvel fan, seeing all of those heroes on screen together is pretty freakin' sweet. Hope the film is good enough to meet the heavy expectations.

Me too. It would be so easy for it to fall apart.

You got a dirty mind Jaggyd.

 

[Bass]

Agreed. There is a huge buzz just seeing all those guys in the same room together.

But I really want to see that high-res, because I can barely tell anything of what's happening. It's more like an "imagined buzz"; I'm imagining the excitement when I see it proper. Stupid low-res bootlegs. GIMME INTERNET! GIMME!

Also: Joss Whedon's love for THE ULTIMATES is obvious, as Thor is wearing his Ultimate costume. No cape. No sleeves. All bad-ass.

Next summer is going to be fun.

Hawkeye had his Ultimate look in the Thor movie though. It also works better for a live action film IMO.

Some Assembly Required.
