fukk a Avengers; this story needs to have it's own movie. Avengers 2 should just have Thanos go after the cube so casual fans can be introduced to him. In that movie drop subtle hints about the gems, wait a year or 2 and have the movie come out. It gives time for Marvel to get back the movie rights for Fantastic 4 and Spidey so they can be thrown in the mix.

Yea that's kind of the problem with the Avengers sequel. In order for IG to really be what it needs to be, the 2nd Avengers movie has to be mostly filler.

Casual fans now know who Thanos is because it was a point of conversation directly after the movie came out. "The Avengers" is a pop culture phenomenon, one of the highest grossing movies in history....people went home and looked that shyt up directly after the movie was over.

You gotta understand, this movie is a hit with every demographic. Young, old, ,middle aged, soccer moms, whatever. If they sat in a theater for 140 minutes watching a comic book movie they most likely Googled "who was that at the end of the movie?" when they went home. I've talked to a few people that knew who he was, I'm talking 50 year old men, all the way down to 20 year old cheer leader types. shyt is :wtf: honestly.

Man please, they might have found out his name but don't act like the casual fan now knows Thanos like they know any other super hero. The masses not sittin at home reading Thanos' wiki page.

:wtf:

I'm telling you they don't need to check wiki. I don't think you understand how many sites had info about Thanos after the movie. CNN had an article with links explaining who he is....CNN....that's how mainstream that scene is now.

Comic book newbies, allow me to introduce you to Thanos: An insanely powerful alien who is obsessed with Death. That’s “Death” with a capital-D: Thanos took nihilism to a new level by falling in love with the literal personification of death, usually rendered as an attractive, robed woman with a face that occasionally turns full Skeletor. In the most famous story about the character, “The Infinity Gauntlet,” Thanos got ahold of the most powerful weapon in the galaxy and killed half of all life in the universe. A massive showdown with all the heroes of Earth ensued.

Like I said, the movie is a pop culture phenomenon. Loki wasn't well known either when they introduced him yet here we are with him as the main villain in a movie that grossed $1 billion so far.

What will most likely happen, Thanos will pop up in the sequels leading up to "Avengers 2". Possibly as part of the main story, but I doubt as the main villain. He'll most likely either be seeking the Gems, or the Gauntlet itself since it seems to already have the Gems in it. Which ever sequel comes last, I think it's "Captain America 2", he'll most likely have them all, which will lead into "Avengers 2".

they won't recreate the Infinity Gauntlet Saga. It's too big in scope

it would have to be broken up as a 2 parter.
then do crossovers with the Infinity Gauntlet as a side story in other Marvel movies, that way more of the story is told...same as in actual comics.


it could be done, but like others have said Marvel NEEDS to get the rights back for all of their characters.

seeing the Avengers, Spiderman, Fantastic Four, Silver Surfer all in one movie...i would bust a nut.
