Sequels Avengers Sequel ideas?

[I'm Venom]

If he turns up in Avengers 2, who says they stop him?

 

[MadVillainy]

Thanos appears in GOTG
Then shows up in Avengers 2, where the team momentarily defeats him or stops him at least
Then he's finally defeated for good in Avengers 3

...that's how I'd do it

 

[I'm Venom]

Another possibility could be The Leader, seeing as there was a nod to him toward the end of The Incredible Hulk. Come up with a plot where The Leader begins working with some of Stark's enemies and the remnants of HYDRA and starts spreading radiation throughout the planet to bring SHIELD to their knees.

 

[Black Narcissus]

More screen time for yours truly.

 

[psylockolussus]

Bring on Thanos! It should take two movies to defeat a villain like him. Sounds plausible and fits with Joss' idea.

If you mean two movies like Guardians of the Galaxy and The Avengers 2 then yes. But if Avengers 2 and Avengers 3, then no.

Hank Pym's recent robotic creation Ultron turns against his creator, breaking out of Pym's lab, claiming he will wipe out the human race in an attempt to create a better world. Pym contacts Nick Fury, who re-activates the Avengers Intiative.

Ultron distracts the Avengers by luring the alive supervillains together, forming a temproary alliance - (Masters of Evil) who then fight them. IN the mean time Ultron breaks into the Helicarrier and uses Phil Coulsons body from the mourge to create a Human-Cyborg, his 'Vision' of the perfect human.

The Avengers return after the battle to find many SHIELD agents dead, Vision and Ultron being the cause. Ulytron reveals his plan to wipe out the human race by hacking into every network in the world, and firing America's nuclear missiles, which would then start a nuclear war. The Masters of Evil come back to attempt to again defeat the Avengers, meanwhile Ultron activates his master plan. Pym escapes the battle and goes to stop Ultron, but Vision attacks him. Pym tries reasoning with Vision, reminding him that he used to be human. Vision's human side then starts taking over, and he turns on his creator, and beats him down (ala Hulk and Loki), and Pym stops the nuclear missiles. The rest of the team defeat the Masters of Evil, however critically damaging the Helicarrier. Iron Man, Thor and Vision catch the ship before it hits New York, and fly it back to the Ocean, placing it down in the sea.

Fury thanks the heroes and forgives Pym for creating Ultron, as he eventually solved the problem. Fury decides to keep Vision with SHIELD, and the team once again say their goodbyes. At the end of the film as Fury is observing the remaining SHIELD agents clean up the ship, he turns to see Star-Lord, who warns Fury that Thanos plans to destroy Earth, and that they should prepare for all out war. Fury smiles, "We're always prepared." Star-Lord responds, "Not for this." and leaves.

The after credits could be Thanos preparing to invade Earth, with the Other filling him in on what happened on Earth.

I'm clearly in the minority on this issue, but I'd much rather leave Thanos to the Guardians, if they want him for multiple films then they should keep him in that particular film series. I would really like to see the smaller, more intimate sequel that Whedon spoke about earlier. Now that all the characters and pieces have been established so well, it would great to see every individual member of the team go throw some personal harrowing trial. The Ultron = personal idea has always irked me a tad because it's only really an intimate problem for Pym, it doesn't really twist the knife in Black Widow or Thor.

 

[I'm Venom]

Thor 2 needs cameo of Thanos, but the movie shouldn't revolve around him. Thanos fighting should be saved for Avengers 2. Build him up, manipulating to get his hands on the gauntlet.

 

[kaijunexus]

Wonder if we'll see something like this...

 

[BigThor]

Nah, that would be waaaaay too many characters in one film.

 

[Captain Marvel]

Thor 2 needs cameo of Thanos, but the movie shouldn't revolve around him. Thanos fighting should be saved for Avengers 2. Build him up, manipulating to get his hands on the gauntlet.

Nah, Thanos should be saved for Avengers 3. How can you possibly do him and the Infinity Gauntlet justice by Avengers 2?

 

[BigThor]

Nah, Thanos should be saved for Avengers 3. How can you possibly do him and the Infinity Gauntlet justice by Avengers 2?

I'm with you on this, Avengers 2 is just too soon for Thanos plus the team needs more super powered members.

 

[Captain Marvel]

Thanos appears in GOTG
Then shows up in Avengers 2, where the team momentarily defeats him or stops him at least
Then he's finally defeated for good in Avengers 3

...that's how I'd do it

That doesn't really build him up as much of a threat, though, if they beat him in the second. If he were the main villain then it'd have to be an Empire Strikes Back ending where the heroes are reeling from a defeat, not celebrating a victory. Either that or Thanos isn't the main villain, but operating behind the scenes while the Avengers square off against another villain (Like Ultron). IMO it should go like this...

Thor: The Dark World - While Thor and his friends are off fighting Malekith, Kurse, and whoever else, Thanos uses his ability to access the Tesseract from afar to break into Odin's vault. He faces off against Odin and, with the Tesseract, manages to defeat him. He then escapes with the Tesseract (which I believe contains two Infinity Gems, the Power Gem and Space Gem), the scepter which he lent Loki, which likely contains the Mind Gem, and a fourth gem hidden in Odin's vault (maybe the Time Gem).

Guardians of the Galaxy - Thanos allies himself with the Guardians to defeat the Universal Church of Truth. He's opposed to them not only because they're Champions of Life, while he's a Champion of Death, but also because they're in possession of the Soul Gem. So over the course of the battle he surreptitiously takes off with the Soul Gem without the Guardians being any the wiser.

Guardians of the Galaxy 2/Avengers 2 - Thanos finds the Reality Gem in either one of these (Makes more sense in Guardians of the Galaxy 2 while the Avengers deal with some other villain, like Ultron).

Avengers 3 - The Infinity Gauntlet.

I think a lot of people are taking Whedon's comments about making it "smaller and more intimate" to the extreme.

The Avengers basically served as an origin story: Yes, we knew these characters already, but the film served as an introduction to the idea of this team.

I fully expect to see The Avengers 2 develop the relationships between these characters further. I think we will see a character-driven story this time around, rather than a full blown action piece like the first movie (though, to be fair, the first was not slouching in the character department either).

I'm with the camp of people hoping for Thanos to be the big baddie at the end of the trilogy (assuming we get three movies), though Marvel isn't foolish enough to give us that tasty little teaser during the credits on the first one and not show him again until the third.

I'd be surprised if he doesn't make SOME sort of appearance in Guardians of the Galaxy, and I'd be absolutely shocked if he wasn't at least mentioned in The Avengers 2.

However, I really don't think they will be using Thanos as a Guardians villain, at least not as the primary antagonist.

I disagree.
You can have him be defeated and still be a major threat. Someone on one of the boards said the idea of having him trapped in Asgard by the end of TA2. While I dont think Asgard is the best option. Having Thanos trapped in another realm is fine. They could still have him smacking around the team and get trapped in the end.
I'm fine with him being a background villain too

And I seriously doubt, or at least will be very surprised, if he has a battle with Odin in Thor 2

 

[I'm Venom]

Since Thanos provided Loki with the army to take over Earth, he'll be showing up in Asgard to kill Loki, right? I would assume so because the Other mentioned an oath Loki made if he were to fail.

Definitely a story I would like for Avengers 2!

 

[pr0xyt0xin]

Avengers 2 will be what it is. The current roster + Ant-man/Wasp VS Thanos.

But now how about a Marvel Civil War theme for Avengers 3? So the Phase 3 movie lineup goes like this (by seemingly popular demand):

Captain America 3
Doctor Strange
Ant-Man 2
Thor 3
Black Panther

Avengers 3 (Marvel Civil War)

And then, as accurate to the comics as possible:

Pro-Registration
Iron Man
War Machine
Thor
Black Widow
Wasp (likely to star in Ant-Man film)
The Falcon (confirmed for Captain America 2)
Spider-Man? (cameo)
Maria Hill

Anti-Registration
Captain America
Winter Soldier (confirmed for Captain America 2)
Hulk
Hawkeye
Ant-Man
Black Panther
Doctor Strange
Nick Fury

Culminating in the death of Steve Rogers. By which time, Tony Stark sees and recognizes his mistakes and proposes that Bucky Barnes (winter soldier) takes on the mantle of Captain America for future films.

Also there could very well be other lesser heroes across phase 2 and 3 only serving to make this Civil War themed crossover more epic.

 

[Chewy]

Sounds like the perfect way to desecrate the franchise

 

[KangConquers]

Lol Ant-Man 2. Couldn't get passed that.

 

[Lord]

I think Avengers 2 should have Ultron as the main baddy, Thanos could be in the shadows or even show up to beat the Avengers up. Thanos should be left as main villain for Avengers 3, and by then i would hope they had Black Panther and Captain Marvel films ready.

 

[TheHeatKitchen]

Can we first all agree that there will only be one Ant Man movie and one GOTG movie? to push those too far would be a HUGE mistake. The characters are interesting, but they can't carry a movie SERIES.

As far as I'm concerned, Ant Man should be an origin story that leads into him as a support role in the Avengers series, and GOTG should tie into the Avengers series, but the characters, with the possible exception of Thanos, are limited to THIS film, and that's all.

 

[Lord]

Kind of agree with that, yeah.

 

[Chewy]

There will be more than one Guardians movie. I'm pretty positive of that

Ant-Man, probably just the one

 

[KangConquers]

There will be more than one Guardians movie. I'm pretty positive of that

Ant-Man, probably just the one

I assume all MCU actors are signed up for 4-6 films or whatever. They'll probably option Pym for five films, but only use 3 of the options (Eponymous film, Avengers 2-3).


The Guardians on the other hand, will probably see 5 or so films. I imagine they're hoping for a trilogy, and plan on having at least some of the characters appear in Avengers sequels and The Inhumans film.
