What are the best/worst/hilarious movie theories that were talked about for any Marvel film?

One that constantly came up was the idea when Xavier is looking through all the mutants early in X2, there is a blink and you miss it scene of Gambit.

Stuff like that...

Or how for sure Lizard was going to appear in Spider-Man 2.
 
I was pretty certain Two-Face was still alive at the end of The Dark Knight.

I mean I still am, but y'know... less certain.
 
A couple of years ago there was this one actor who was apparently "officially" being considered by marvel for everyone. I can't remember his name but after a while people started to make some clever memes and jokes about it.

The Lizard was planned for Spider-Man 2, as was the Black Cat. Doctor Octopus was originally planned to be in Spider-Man 1 alongside the Goblin.

Also, Gambit was due to be in X2 very briefly - James Bamford - just not in that scene.

....I have no idea who you're talking about.
 
Not a stupid theory, but a lot of people were speculating that either Bruce, Alfred, or Lucius would die in The Dark Knight Rises. Not gonna lie, any of their deaths might have improved the movie a little bit.

EDIT: I just saw this is in the Marvel forum.

Hey, remember when we all thought that the Hulkbuster-size armor from IM3 (aka "Igor") would actually do some fighting instead of just holding up an oil rig.

It was something Pennington.
 
I remember somebody thinking that the "dark world" in Thor: The Dark World was Ego.

Before the release of The Avengers, there were toy ads and stuff that didn't give away what kind of aliens Loki's army were, they would say stuff like "Iron Man vs. [REDACTED]!" and some people actually thought the aliens would be called the Redacted:doh:

And we can't forget this oldie:

There was a huge debate as to whether the Dark Knight Rises logo was blue or purple. Yeah, some people were really desperate for news back then...
Also X3 had a plethora of them; apparently there were multiple post-credits scenes that had Jean and Cyclops rising from the grave.
 
Luke Cage was in The Incredible Hulk is a strange one i've seen. Although it does have a bit of merit. There is a black guy with a yellow shirt and gold chain who the camera focuses on when the rampage through Harlem is going on. More of a nod to the fans than anything.
 
Before anyone says, 'Morbius in the first Blade movie,' Morbius really is in the first Blade movie, albeit in the deleted ending.
 
The supposed Thor cameos have been pretty funny. Remember when people thought that he was the blonde prisoner in the French prison that Tony Stark passes early on in Iron Man 2? Or that he caused the thunderstorm in TIH when Hulk and Betty are in the cave?
 
A lot of people thought that Stephanie Szostak's character in IM3 was the Wasp, but she turned out to be Ellen Brandt.

A lot of people thought that [any newly cast female actress]'s character in [any MCU movie] was the Wasp, but she turned out to be [A VERY MINOR CHARACTER].

Oh and Olivia Munn in IM2! It only added more fuel to the fire when Favreau said she would be playing a character from the comics.
 
Iron Man being in Guardians was a godawful rumour

Yep, ended up just being to sell toys :funny:

Don't forget Eva Longoria! (though she ended up not being in a movie)

Hey, given the timeline, that one might well be *true*. I mean, wrong side of the country, but Mjolnir was definitely kicking up storms around that time.
 
I think the title is still the most hilarious thing that was being said around the first Spider-Man trilogy.
 
It got reported online that Star-Lord was going to contact Iron Man with a distress call in Iron Man 3 and the movie would end with Iron Man flying into space with his outer-space armor to answer it.

Also, another report said that Tony Stark was going to knock up Maya Hansen in Iron Man 3 and have a baby with her.

Everyone thought she was going to be an important character or something.

I think 4chan said she was going to be Bethany Cabe.
