screenrant.com has posted an article containing the logos for several of Marvel's upcoming films. Iron Man 2, Thor, Captain America and The Avengers are all shown. For the most part, they look pretty much like they do on comic book covers. And the addition of the Shield logo in the center is a nice touch.
I can't wait to see all of these films. I also think that Marvel is handling this very well, with giving each character their own solo before all joining together for The Avengers movie.

You know, I'm really surprised that they haven't released any LEGO sets for any Marvel properties. The Batman sets were really cool. Just think of how awesome Spider-Man LEGOS would be!

Spidey 1 and 2 at least had legos. I think 3 was mega bloks.
Ironman Legos though! All his armors in legomen scale. Avengers mansion. Etc. Needs to happen, now! Spidey 4 needs to be the neogenic nightmare alluded at in 2. So morbius works for me for now, if it means the lizard and manspider too. But that means we need a second protagonist like black cat. Which could set in motion a carnage, venom, morbius, symbiote &*#@storm type story. More MJ crazy jealous, Cat sharing in the adventures with petey and setting up an even more off beat She-Venom/She-Carnage maybe. Okay that might be pushing it. But seriously if they go neogenic nightmare, which morbius and lizard fit too, they'll need another hero to stop man spider, and since punisher is out. That leaves Kraven or Felicia. But with morbius, you have felicia's relationship to michael that can come into play. So kraven feels out of place unless hired by someone to catch man spider. This could potentially set up the scorpion too in that manner, as either part of the neogenic nightmare, or an aftereffect. Lot's of possibilities here that can be explored. Ironman 2 has me excited =D needs more movies to build to the armor wars. Cap's title looks great. So long as his costume is accurate no problems here. (90s did it right, the 70s one sucked. Thor is looking good, all info sounds good so far. Avengers- I just want to know who the big bad is. What will unite these heroes? |

I figure it will be Loki fucking with Hulk's head, Hulk eventually joins good guys, Loki gets his ass handed to him.
I'm just excited for Ant-Man. I love me some Edgar Wright. |

I'm pretty sure the Wasp will appear in Avengers as well. I remember hearing a rumor that Eva Longoria might play her. Again, pretty doubtful, but I wouldn't mind getting to look at Eva on the big screen for two hours. |

Yeah I remember those rumors as well. I'm just hoping they don't write out the *little* guy. Sorry, had to. Really though, as much as everyone else hates Henry Pym I love him. He's third in line for my favorite Marvel comics characters. And he spawned my favorite villain period
I don't like O'Grady and I know that's the point, but I thank god that he's not in a movie. I wouldn't mind seeing a figure for him though and just pretending it was Hank. ALSO, Eva Longoria is good looking, but we could get someone hotter to be Janet. I love Janet. Rounding out my favorites, Wasp is my favorite female comic character.. I want something like this: I'm half-mast just looking at it Last edited by scarecrow; 06-04-2009 at 12:05 AM.. |

I'm sure Hank Pym will make it into the movie. He's a founding member of the team plus he brings a load of dramatic content with him. He's romantically involved with the Wasp. And his inferiority complex is bigger than any size he can grow to. I imagine that could be a great character arch to implement into the movie, and he has to step up and be hero standing side by side with Cap, Thor and Iron Man!

Antman is part of it, his movie isn't coming till after Avengers though.
I'm hoping they didn't go the loki route, because we'll get enough of him in the Thor movie, and thor vs. Norton is also in control of the hulk now, or at least alluded to at the end of his movie. Norton is already signed on, as is downey. It was in the contracts for their first movies. The 'avengers clause'. Caps and thor's movie have it too. From what I've heard they may completely skip over the fighting the hulk aspects. As it's been done in hulk vs. and the ultimate movies. But I do hope the first half of the film does have some hulk fighting the avengers, and I'm hoping the second half is either Ultron, or something of similiar oomph. Ultron honestly should probably wait till the ant-man movie, but ah well. Hulk's movie attempted to tease about his avengers fight by having the weapon 0 formula in use. So that would be sweet to see, but I don't think Loki is a big enough bad for this new team. Leave that for the Thor sequel. Since his movie from last report was mostly on asgard, with a lil midgard at the end. Now let's also keep in mind, they tend to approach these in manners that haven't been done before. This being said, I'm hoping this means the kree/skrull war won't be till later, which could add Ms. Marvel to the cast. Movie Ultron could be interesting, but we need ant-man as the intro way, though that could be the entry-way into the ant-man movie. That also leaves, Kang, the Masters of Evil, the Zodiac, Immortus, and more too though. Now I could see them maybe doing the hulk at the start, followed by the masters of evil later, with the leader being revealed as loki all along. But honestly, I'm hoping for big bads that are new to this universe entirely, as opposed to carry-overs from other movies. I could see maybe some carry-over, like ultron taking over the remains of Iron monger, but loki himself is too much thor imho for one movie. We need a well balanced epic battle. Though then again, loki is like the ultimate reason why ultron etc would go bad. I'm just really curious to see what direction this goes. But yes, all the new marvel films since hulk that aren't fox or new line, or sony, have something called 'the avengers clause' so all the main hero stars will be in avengers. The side stars don't have that clause as was the case with samuel L jackson getting resigned for the next 5-6 films. We may see this again when war machine comes into play, among other cameo guys from the films. I'm also unaware if loki has that in his contract. I do know thor did. |

@ Snowflakian
I'm not sure how much control Edward Norton has over the Hulk license in film. He had a highly publicized conflict with Marvel over the final edit of the film he starred in. He wanted to showcase some the more emotional aspects of the character whereas the studio wanted to "dumb it down", for lack of a better term, for a more mainstream appeal. The studio had their way in the end, not Norton. They really wanted to make their money after the financial disappointment of the first Hulk film. Still, he is contractually obligated to appear in any future films if the studio wishes him to do so. Concerning the Hulk vs. Avengers appearing in Hulk Vs. and Ultimate Avengers cartoons: I believe that the studio can still incorporate this into an Avengers movie since not everyone has seen any of the Marvel animated movies. I know the hardcore fans have seen them, plus others, but definitely not the mass numbers that go the theaters to watch movies. It would still be new to the majority of film goers. And it has been officially confirmed that Sam Jackson has been signed to a NINE picture deal to appear as Nick Fury in Marvel films. Thats a whole lot of Fury. I'm sure thats just to cover their asses in the future and they don't actually have that many films planned yet, but you never know. |

I'm sure thats just to cover their asses in the future and they don't actually have that many films planned yet, but you never know. That and with hulk's smile at the end, hints at he has more control now. With the addition of Doc Samson as betsy's other love interest, and the mutation of the leader, they have a wide array of hulk stuff to tap for himself or bleed overs. The animated properties aren't movie related, but filmmakers don't want to make something that's already been made. Especially when the success of a property like this will drive the merchandising of all related material. So sure a 'few' have seen the ultimates movie now. But after live film, that few will become many. Similiarities are okay, but too much similiar and you get backlash. It's like Mandarin and Ironman. Huge focal point in the animated movie, subplot in the new live movies, to be used in IM3 or later and in the movies he'll be different than what they used in animated. This is also helped in being avoided by having origin movies for each. No need to re-do the origins in the team movie this way. Hulk being the only clear unknown wild card, which may be resolved in IM2 in some fashion (or maybe that's why thor was originally set to cameo in it?) We also need to see the advent of the vault, or hydra and aim for terrorist usage of these new beings. The vault since abomination wasn't killed. They've got a lot left to cover before they become anywhere near Ultimates animated film like. And while I'd like to see Hulk vs the Heroes, the last comment on it I saw was that it would create confusion for the audience. Personally I think it depends on how the next 3 movies are set up for avengers at the end, like how hulk alluded to bruce in control at the end. So it both teases for the hero fight, and denies it at the same time, so it's fair game. But looking at it from a hollywood standpoint, it's a toughy to consider. They are approaching this in a more real world approach than previously. So I'd think they'd approach the heroes gathering as similiar. Maybe not more than 30 minutes of the film dedicated to the team wrangling in the hulk if even. And the rest with the door open to why do they exist. Why did fury feel the need to form a team of heroes? What urgent matter created their need? At most it looks like stark may be helping with hulkbuster stuff eventually for right now. Maybe even the implimentation of a hulkbuster suit. But we're talking about hulk here. So that fight is going to end no matter how you look at it, similiar to the ultimates usage, or he escapes after descimating the team. As much as it would work, it also causes too much similiarities to be original at all. I'd like to give them more credit than that with what it seems like they've been planning. Especially after the plot threads in hulk, and comments on thor being mostly asgard. And covering both sides of cap from half in the 40s, and half present day time lost soldier. We've got all these threads interweaving into just hulk vs the heroes, doesn't really seem like a hollywood approach, cept maybe for the first half hour of the film. While Loki could work too, I'm not sure how much of thor is present day to set it up. Ultron has the issue of needing to be created at the end of Antman's film. Kang could work since he'd be coming to the time that the avengers formed or had their first real documented mission. Hydra and Aim are where I think they may go. As they seem like the only area of the marvel Universe left open with Modok and such, even a cap paralleling past. It'd also explain the need of a new heavy duty Superheroes shield team. If more organizations are making 'super soldiers' especially after the abomination's publicity. They really have too much canon already built up to take easy outs like Loki, or the ultimate fallback, hulk. We need something that'd prove to be a threat to the heroes. Something with legion, and or incredible odds. Moreso than just one force of nature, or trickster god. Like I could see aim trying to kidnap banner to test their new MODOG project, but then the avengers are called in when bruce hulks out leading to them containing him while aim gets away, leaving a bigger puzzle for a better big bad as MODOG takes over aim etc. That's just one excuse for epic fight, info gathering, and then nonstop super being fights. (AIM super soldier villian cameos galore too). I don't know, I just expect something a little more intricate with the why's, since fury has been recruiting people. But at the same time, we need a big bad that can deal with or on par with the hulk, and a thunder god. So even outside of those two bashing each other, we need more than just a trickster god. Personally I'd love to see the use of the kree, if just to set up Ms. marvel later. But they could also set up vibranium for caps shield as the black panther usage down the road too. They've got lots of room and material to tap without going near anything already done, I'd like to see what they come up with as a new approach. We need more original unrecycled super hero movies and shows. Movies like these create demand for more material. So the animated films will boom during this transitional time which is an added reason as to not imitate anything already done while still being faithful. Use the norton hulk film as an example, while it alluded to previous usages, it was an entirely new approach while still paying respects to the previous incarnations like ferigno's cameo, the bixby music etc. Something on that order is what I expect from avengers. New and different while still mainaining nostalgia and real world accuracy to what if this was our world. Loki and Hulk seem too much like an unknown for it to be the cause of fury trying to form a team too. Them forming is forethought, a loki hulk attack is random. Now abomination being incarcerated, does start to explain why a team is needed in case beings like him escape, but considering he's the only known one in existence besides hulk. What else is there? IM (fury)-> Hulk (stark)-> IM2(thor) -> Thor (cap allegedly but unknown honestly)-> Cap(unknown) -> Avengers(unknown). Now all those are near the end cameo's or after credits. We already know Fury is in more than a credit like scene for IM2. As for fury's 9 picture deal, that covers IM2, Cap, thor, Avengers, and any subsequent use like IM3, Cap2 (if they make one), Thor 2 (if they make one), hulk 2(if they make one) and avengers 2(if they make one), it's also rumored they might do a fury stand alone film, and unless they use all his uses up through sequels, the antman movie too. To be honest, cap and thor don't need sequels from the shape of things, though maybe. Depends how much of thor cameos in IM2 or if that's changed since. Avengers 2 is a lock more than likely. Hulk's slightly different with all the remaining threads they intentionally left, Ironman 3 is a given, and Ant-man is going to be, well, different. Then he'll need to be re-signed again. Personally if it was me, I'd save Mandarin for Avengers 2 as a bleed over from IM3 into an avengers hands of the mandarin film. I'd also use hulk 2, and Avengers as the stage setter for an armor wars ironman 3. Titanium Man, Crimson Dynamo, and more. The order of the 10 rings is a good stage setter for a super villian terrorist organization that could branch out from or to aim and hydra, and others.

As long as Ultron looks right I'm happy having him, although if Ant Man is coming out after, I have no idea how they'll fit him in and not make it feel like he was just thrown in for fan service.

There's no way in hell I'm responding fully to either of your two blocks of text Yeah just too much. And I concur, Loki seems unknown yet entirely, ultron would be interesting albeit too soon maybe, Kang is maybe too off the wall, aliens are overplayed so not early on. But if the rumors are true about thor's movie, it would seem fitting that loki ends up on earth to harass thor too. But wouldn't that be saved more for thor 2 instead of avengers? Hulk and banner are nearing understanding as his breathing exercises seem to have that in control no drug induced intelligence that can wear off. So that's less likely, and we have beings like abomination and ironmonger black market tech maybe. Not to mention as IM2 may show, more international 'super powers' too. Bah, darn you logos for not hinting at more information! If avengers premieres Antman, we may get o'grady from lang's lab on a stark built suit. xD Then antman's movie we learn the history of pym and lang via the fan liked script with a shield hiring him ending. >.> Would marvel movie makers be that mean? Nah, not with wasp around... But then again widow does make for a better field agent from shield's perspective. That'd make for a curious AntMan 2. Not really an avengers scale flick if the suit was stolen tbh anyway. Captain Marvel VS the avengers would be interesting, it's got the power, the stereotypical fight before teamup, the galactic nature, opens the door up for aliens and more, and then could tie into things via the kree sentry, and then maybe inhumans down the road. Yes I want a film version blackbolt, and since fantastic 4 isn't touching it. Last edited by Snowflakian; 06-05-2009 at 03:52 AM.. |
