The Avengers 2! The Official News and Speculation Thread - Upgrade section 5 - - - Part 12

I know they won't, but I hope they go full-bore magic with SW and Dr. Strange. I love my science, but it gets a little old when everything is explained away as advanced tech.

I hope Joss kind of rethinks about not wanting to do somewhat long films because with the amount of characters that he has going on in this film, I think the film could use a screening time that's around 2 Hours and 30-40 minutes.

Some say that he could do just fine with the screening time that he had for the first Avengers film, but I'd argue that Hawkeye got somewhat screwed out of a good development arc because of how they didn't have enough time to give him a expanded role in that film, hence why he's getting a bigger role in this film.

I also hope that Thor will be showcased very well in this film, since this will probably be his only film where he's Loki-free and not overshadowed by Loki's character.

It's funny you said that because Loki felt he was in Thor's shadow in the movie and in the real world Thor is in Loki's shadow!

Aaron Taylor Johnson was at the Cap 2 premiere tonight.

Still, when we sat down to chat with Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige, we asked him which property he'd want back the most: Spider-Man, Fantastic Four or the X-Men. "The answer is all of them," he told us. "It would be nice to have all of them back, all for different reasons. I think that will remain a theoretical question for years to come, though."

Only time will tell but I have faith and hope that one day every Marvel character is in a movie!

You didn't read what I said properly. Making the source of Wanda's powers have magical origin is perfectly believable because the audience can suspend disbelief that way and it was like that in the comics. What literally no one will believe is human scientists having the ability to create a person who can alter reality itself.

You need an outside fantastical part to be able to bend the rules with. Anything grounded on earth just wouldn't be believable what so ever.

Probability is a tricky tricky beast... it really is impossible to explain through science...

Such a lame response, but then again I didn't expect him to answer it truthfully. The politician response is so zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

[Joeyjojo72]

Whats your problem? Its just his way of saying "it ain't happening anytime soon so don't get your hopes up". Which is true. Its out of his hands. Perfectly straightforward and accurate response.

Cool thanks for finding it!

2/10 needs moar complainin'

The issue with Wanda's powers being magical isn't that its unbelievable, so much as that it'd seem weird to the audience. Magic powers are fine, but magic powers from genetics experiments? Unless those experiments involve infusions of godly DNA, that's kind of out there. Magic, as popularly viewed, has more to do with skill and practice: its something you *learn*.

So, I'd prefer Wanda's powers not be magic.

[Huddsy]

OH SNAP!

Feige confirms Avengers Tower will be featured in AoU.

Which comes both after and before posts of random pics and gifs that have nothing to do with the topic.

I'd rather her powers be magic, without any attempt at scientific explanation

[Whiskey Tango]

They've retconned Wanda so many times. I thought she studied magic under Harkness and Strange in addition to her mutant probability hexes.

[AndrewGilkison]

Of course Feige would want them all back. Why wouldn't Marvel Studios want to have the rights to every one of their characters back? It makes all the sense in the world.

The stuff people find issue with on here is mindboggling.

I hope they do some retconning or redesigning to the tower, since it was pretty fugly in the first film.
They should also make it taller

[Scarecrow_King]

**** the tower. Give me a mansion.

It's slightly unreal that in a few weeks we'll probably be getting set pics of the band back together when it seems like it was just a few months ago that we were getting these:

Wish we could have seen the full Cap Thor scene.
