Maybe the idea of building Thanos for Avengers 3 was a swerve. Maybe Thanos is gonna be the end game for Guardians 3 and the Guardians will just get help from the Avengers in that movie. I mean we learned more about Thanos and the Infinity Stones in that 1 Guardians movie than all of Phase 1 & 2 combined. Is that by accident? :sas1: The Infinity Stones have only been a subplot for most the the Avenger related movies and Thanos has only been mentioned once and never again. Maybe Avengers 3 was intended to be the conclusion for the Civil War storyline. :sas2:

Watching Agents of SHIELD, I just rather see more Hydra (Crossbones, Baron von Strucker, Zemo), and they also been hinting at some alien stuff and showing some super powered villains. More interesting than trying to adapt Civil War

Said something like this in The Avegers 2 thread before all of this broke.
As Guardians showed he's not exclusive to them(The Avengers):manny:. You would have thought that one of Thanos's goons/lieutenants/subsidiaries or even Thanos himself would have been the villain for this film(that's what I thought it would be), but instead it's Ultron who's a product of The Avengers not Thanos :mjpls:.

I've dogged on The Avengers before for not giving Thanos a bigger part and building him up in that film, as I thought he was going to main villain of this trilogy. Doing that would have locked him into The Avengers. Instead all he does is give Loki his alien army in return for the cosmic cube. Cube isn't even on Earth anymore. He has no ties to them.

It's now looking like that cameo was just to say that this is very big universe instead of establishing him as their villain. He's had zero to do with The Avengers for the entire phase since his first appearance, they don't even know about him or the gems, however which other team in the universe does? :sas1:

Don't you think it would be more appropriate for the "Guardians of The Galaxy" to stop a character from wiping out a bunch of galaxies? :sas2:

Factor that in with the endings of The Avengers, The Winter Soldier and then all the stuff in Avengers 2 such as Ultron(a sub for the new warriors),
Hulk totaling Johannesburg(it was Las Vegas in the comic)
a variation of the storyline was clearly being built up to.

:ohhh: I never even realized that up to this point, The Avengers have no knowledge of Thanos existing.

Avengers 3 being the conclusion to Civil War also makes sense of some of the rumors I've been hearing about Avengers 3. Mainly the rumor about Cap leading a new team in Avengers 3. When I first heard about this, I thought they were saying that the team that we know will be disbanded after Avengers 2 and Cap was going to lead a all or mostly new squad. But know I think this may mean that Cap is leading his own squad, like he did in Civil War, to go against Iron-Man since it rumor is that Cap is leading "a" new Avengers, not "the" new Avengers squad.

I can buy that Civil War is something they've been thinking about but it's pretty clear Avengers 3 was going to be about the Infinity Gauntlet. I think what happened was Guardians of the Galaxy made a ton of money and Downey Jr. signed back on and now the execs at Marvel are like :whoa: This doesn't need to end with Avengers 3... it doesn't really ever need to end... :ehh:

Just before? There's a 2-3 year window between "Cap 3" and "The Avengers 3".

Considering how big a Civil War arch is, it feels kinda rushed that it's only 2-3 years away from Avengers 3. Now, if they end up making Thanos more of a GOTG villain (with special cameos from the Avengers when shyt gets real) then I'd get the plan of starting stuff in Cap 3 and going forward from there.

But before this news broke we were left with the impression that Thanos was going to be the main villain for A3 - even promoting him in ComicCon at their panel - and throwing such a big storyline like Civil War before the big clash against the Titan would feel kinda rushed, imo. I guess they can also do A3 with a new Avengers team (post CW) but that seems kinda :patrice:

2-3 years is enough to knock out 4-6 movies covering "Civil War". Thanos could hit in "Avengers 3" directly after that, when everyone is reeling from the aftermath.

Anything concerning Thanos could be handled in after credits scenes leading up to "Avengers 3". They can't dedicate much screen time to him or that, he could easily body any solo Avenger. So the A plot has to be "Civil War" (or whatever), the B plot would be Thanos stealing the Gems and the Gauntlet.

Hell, they knocked out 90% of the exposition on him/the Gems in "Guardians Of The Galaxy" in one scene. They just need to give him a scene or two leading into "Avengers 3" so the general public knows he ain't fukking around.

So Marvel was trying to get Spiderman in this Civil War movie.

Marvel-Sony-Spider-Man-Avengers-Crossover.jpg


Ever since Marvel started its own studio – and subsequently became the most popular studio producing Marvel Comics movie adaptations – there have been fans clamoring for Sony to give up the rights to Spider-Man so he could mix it up with the likes of Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man and Chris Evans’ Captain America.

In lieu of a rights reversal, though, fans have also hoped that Sony’s Spider-Man – played by Andrew Garfield – might cross over into the Marvel movie universe for an event film in the vein of The Avengers. There have even been rumors along these lines, claiming that, as a result of the critical lashing The Amazing Spider-Man 2received (combined with the fact that it made the least amount of money of all five Spider-Man films), Sony was talking to Marvel about possibly lending the latter studio everyone’s favorite webslinger.
Those rumors? All true, apparently.


You see, Sony is in the midst of something of a hacker crisis, where all their personal emails and communications are being strewn across the Internet for the world to see. It’s been a pretty embarrassing event for the company, to say the least. As it happens, some of those communications pertain to negotiations between Sony and Marvel, and they validate the claims that the two studios were in talks to share Spider-Man.

According to The Wall Street Journal, Marvel wanted to make a new trilogy of Spider-Man films that would allow Sony to retain some “creative control, marketing, and distribution [rights].” Marvel also wanted Spider-Man to appear in the upcomingCaptain America: Civil War, which will see Cap go head-to-head with Iron Man.

Marvel-Movie-Civil-War-Spider-Man.jpg


In the comic book version of Civil War, Spider-Man was a central figure, caught between the two warring sides of superheroes – those who were pro-superhero registration, and those who were anti-superhero registration. At the end of the first issue, Spider-Man revealed his secret identity to the world, which eventually led to Aunt May being shot on the orders of the Kingpin and Spider-Man making a literal deal with the devil to save her, retconning his marriage to Mary Jane in the process.

The WSJ says that the talks between Marvel and Sony “broke down” for some unknown reason and that Sony’s latest plans for Spider-Man involve an animated comedy film produced by Chris Miller and Phil Lord (The LEGO Movie). They still have plans for their Spider-Man spinoffs – a female superhero teamup, Sinister Six, andVenom – but everything’s on hold until their big Spidey summit come January.

The fact that Marvel wanted Spider-Man to be involved in their adaptation of Civil War is interesting. Many fans have assumed that the story would have to be altered for the big screen, seeing as none of the Marvel superheroes have secret identities to protect. Could Spider-Man’s (once) possible inclusion indicate that secret identities will still play a role in the film?

For fans who want to see these characters cross over, this could be seen as good news – while plans between the two companies fell apart this time, that doesn’t mean the pieces couldn’t be picked up for a different film down the line (say,Avengers: Infinity War). At the very least, this proves that the desire for a crossover exists at the highest levels.

What say you, Screen Ranters? Do you want to see Spider-Man appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Drop us a line in the comments.

Stay tuned for more news about Sony’s Spiderverse.

Captain America: Civil War hits theaters May 6th, 2016.
