Amph "You think you're the only superhero in the world?" - The Marvel Cinematic Universe

RDJ could play Iron Man pretty much forever because it's a guy in a suit. Evans has to maintain peak physical condition. You start getting into the comics Marvel sliding timescale of how Cap has been perpetually unfrozen for about "five years or so" (that has lasted for decades) but Evans is going to, y'know, age and he can only look like a living perfect specimen for so long. There have been more than a few backups, Falcon Cap, Bucky Cap, so they have options to swap him out. Or they could even do Old Cap (who had the super solider serum wear off for a time). But there's only so many years / time you can have Evans be like Captain America. It seems that the MCU keeps growing outward where they can retire the original Avengers and then swap in new ones, seems to be the plan.

 

it looks like he's good for a few more years.

the other Caps'....they aren't Steve Rogers. i never connected much with the comic book Cap, but Evans has been great giving that character dimension.

 

Well, we did just recently have a movie where a dead actor was brought back to life with CGI...

 

..or y'know, he could have a heroic, self-sacrificing death in Infinity War and have someone else pickup the shield to honor/replace him. That is, if Marvel's gonna continue cranking out this stuff to infinity an beyond.

 

Jackman is 13 years older, and can still turn it on, no reasons Evans can't aswell.

 

Didn't Steve Rogers come back to life in the comics? I mean if they didn't even want to stray from the original Cap there, why would they want to do so with a much wider audience?

 

Venom movie will be rated R

Look what you've done, Deadpool and Logan.

 

heels1785, thought this was kinda funny.



Don't worry Steve & Co., my money's on you.

 

Guess he will be eating brains.

 

Seriously?!

 

R-rated Venom can totally be a thing and pass. Also by R-rated I'd wager we're in for some Carnage V Venom mayhem. Carnage, if it is a thing, would be real hard to do PG-13.

What I'm interested in is if Disney / MCU (Venom seems solo Sony) will see that the R-rated comic book movie seems to be a thing, that's making a profit, and if we'll get a proper MCU movie that'll be R-rated.

 

I don't know too many main MCU films that could benefit from being R-rated outside of the Punisher, Blade and Ghost Rider. I think it should be saved for characters like that.

 

Moon Knight

 

I would like this. I think it would be a cool send-off for Evans and would really leave lasting consequences for the Thanos plotline (which needs to happen).

 

I'm calling it. I think IW will need that moment to propel the heroes to final victory against an Infinity Gauntlet wearing, godlike Thanos.

 

They'll probably be lazy and have Vision getting his head ripped open as the catalyst.

 

Well, I think it goes without saying that Thanos needs to get that gem somehow and that it won't be pretty.

RIP JarViz

 

Aaron Sorkin is going to chat with honchos at both Marvel and DC!

http://comicbook.com/marvel/2017/03/28/aaron-sorkin-in-talks-with-marvel-dc/

“I happen to have meetings coming up with both DC and Marvel," he said. "I have to go into these meetings and tell them as respectfully as I can that I’ve never read a comic book. It’s not that I don’t like them, it’s just that I’ve never been exposed to one. So, I’m hoping that somewhere in their library is a comic book character that I’m gonna love and I’m going to want to go back and start reading from the first issue on.”

Probably nothing to come of it but I would dig. Chatty Aaron Sorkin with a multiple cast of oddballs with distinctive personality quirks thrown together? Uhm .... X-Factor Investigations! First one that popped into my head. (maybe wrong thread for it since it would be 20th Century Fox Merry Mutants but whatever)

 

Yeah, I'm really starting to believe the online theory that Heimdall has the orange Soul stone. And he'll be killed by Thanos too.

 

Actually Heimdall biting it in either Ragnork or Infinity War seems likely if only because Idris Elba has much higher star wattage than in the 1st Thor flick. This is assuming his contract for the 1st Thor flick is even still valid anymore, those things do expire. They did give him cool stuff to do in all 3 of his appearances, though. He gets a great scene in both Thor flicks and his Age of Ultron cameo lets him drop Crazy Exposition.

 

Where does that come from. I've never seen any hints as to his having the soul gem. And it'd be just a little too silly that the Asgardians happen to have so many of the gems in their grasp at one time or another when at least two of them stated that it was a bad idea to do so.
