Avengers Infinity War

[Lord Mandrake]

New page Infinity cunt


Of course the other thing that's been introduced in Dr Strange and Antman is multiple dimensions and time travel. I can imagine a scenario where Captain America ends up back with Peggy in his own time rather than getting killed off outright and with Antman and the Wasp now filming the MCU is going multiverse/cosmic. Charachters like Captain Marvel, Adam Warlock and possibly Namor are all incoming so they are going to have to lose some heroes just to make room.

I know the tv charachters never cross over but I would love to see Frank just turn up and fuck up at least a few of Thanos crew with heavy artillery.

Doctor Strange is being played as a very similar character to Stark as well plus seems to be being pushed into a leading role in the Avengers,  potential replacement?

[phantom_power]

I predict that there will be a huge shake-up of the Avengers team, regardless of who dies. I wouldn't be surprised if only a couple of members of the original team remain, to be replaced by Dr Strange, Ant-Man and maybe a couple of the GotG.

I have to say I am really looking forward to seeing all these different characters meeting and bouncing off each other for the first time. The way Ant-Man and Spiderman were threaded into Civil War in such a pleasing way gives me confidence that the Russos know what they are doing

That would be interesting if instead of destroying everything it became a "none of this ever happened" situation, until people start having deja vu or something to realise the timeline has changed.

It's interesting that the trailer doesn't show Ant-Man when Ant-Man & the Wasp comes out between these next two Avengers films.

They're just too small to see.

[Dr Rock]

I'm not sure what powers getting the Infinity Stones gives Thanos, but he is basically very strong and invulnerable. This means most of the heroes in it can't hurt him, but Dr Strange could do a spell on him, or Ant-Man could shrink him down to the size of a bit of salt, which might help.

[mothman]

In all seriousness I wouldn't mind Howard the Duck getting involved.

Perhaps he'll get his own armour suit. Iron Duck.

[Mister Six]

Ducktor Strange?

[Spiteface]

This Thanos lad, what is his gimmick? If he can only punch well, then I have zero interest in this. The last Marvel film I watched was Captain America 4 I think and it was just punch, punch, block, punch , block for the entire two hours.

He's no Starfish Hitler.

[mothman]

Ducktor Strange?

Anatidae-Man.
Scarlet Twitch.
Eider-Man.
Duck Widow.

I read somewhere that Ant-Man & the Wasp is set between CA3 and Infinity War. Presumably it explains how he gets back together with the Pyms after escaping that big prison thing in the ocean.

Everyone posting in this thread should kill themselves.

That wasn't very nice, was it. You should probably think carefully about throwing that kind of shit around on a forum where a few people have really taken their own lives, it's not really appropriate mate.

I second that.

Bit bored of them using the same old Marvel classic characters, when you such a varied roster to choose from:

Is that a shrek on the far right there? That's a nasty lookin' shrek.

[Bad Ambassador]

Don't forget the Ninja Turtles and Lightning McQueen!

[Operty1]

'Sense Of Right Alliance' they have a 'sense' that what they are doing is right.

Sounds like something the Daily Mail have as some kind of special page in their 'Paper'.

[Blumf]

"Superman, why are you pummelling that man?"
"Not sure really, just kinda feels like the thing to do, ya know? Ain't that right, Batman?"
"Trust your gut, that's what I always say"

The more I read on CaB about this interweaving, brightly coloured, episodic universe of comic characters, the more I find myself tempted to actually watch some of it. How long are the films? 90 minutes each? Manageable? I won't have to sit through a load of three-hour Iron Mans, will I?

[Bad Ambassador]

They're generally two-and-a-bit hours. Thor: The Dark World is shortest at 112 minutes and Captain America: Civil War was the longest at 147 minutes, but it has a LOT of characters so it doesn't feel as long.

FAKE EDIT: The 17 Marvel Cinematic Universe films to date have an average length of 127 minutes, says the Internet.

[Thomas]

Thanks, Bad Ambassador. That's a pretty lengthy average. I might skip a few of the less well-received episodes and just skim their plots on Wikipedia. I'm mostly intrigued by the settings of yer Captain Americas and Guardians of the Galaxys.

[Theremin]

Here's my list of the only Marvel films you need to see*, in order.


1) Iron Man

2) Guardians of the Galaxy

3) Thor

4) The Avengers

5) Captain America: The Winter Soldier

6) Guardians of the Galaxy 2

7) Iron Man 3

8) Captain America: Civil War

9) Thor: Ragnarok

Aaaand that's all you need to be caught up for Avengers: Infinity War next year. You might have the occasional minor character pop out of seemingly nowhere, but you're cutting out a looot of bumpf this way.

That's about the length of a 70s era Bond film, and without credits it's definitely under two hours.

Avengers: Age Of Ultron doesn't really fit your criteria, but should probably be watched too, if you're trying to get up to speed on the universe. It has a lot of story development in it and lays the groundwork for everything that happens in Civil War, and presumably Avengers 3 & 4 too.

[Custard]

Good list, but I don't think Guardians 2 is a necessity either. I enjoyed it in the cinema, but some of it actively annoyed me, rewatching it the other day. Bit too bloated, and nowhere near as funny as it thinks it is. The first one was much better, I'm starting to think

Yep, it definitely coasts a bit, the first one is much better methinks.

[greenman]

Yep I'd say Ultron needs to be viewed for Civil War and Thor Ragnarok to make sense, parts of it are decent anyway even if its a bit of a mess overall.
