The Avengers Skrull Speculation and hopes

[Atomicchuck3k]

It's seems pretty much the majority of you believe or hope the Skrulls will be the other big villains in the Avengers other than Loki. What are some of your hopes and expectations?

For me, if the Skrull rumor holds true then I at least hope the writers don't go the cheesy route and have the skrulls impersonate other members of the team (at least not exclusively). To me that would be as much a cheat as Spidey 3 when instead of creating a sleek (no web design), black and white, classic look for the black costume the FX people just painted his original costume black.

My hopes are that the Skrulls impersonate other non-super powered, main stream Marvel Universe characters like General Ross, Jonah Jameson, or even Matt Murdock. Just to bring the MU closer together.

I also hope the look will be derived from the comics and not some all new creation (don't want to end up disappointed again like with the Galactus Smog).

This would be a good look in my mind:

SO people share your thoughts.

My hopes are that the Skrulls will be more than just Loki's pawns, there should be actors playing them(Atleast a couple) as actual characters instead of voiceless brutes. Also give them powers other than just changing into people so that maybe some of the more powerful ones could fight against the heroes and in groups even give them a hard time.

Agreed. I think they should also have a hint of the Skrull home world.

Other than shape shifting I don't think the Skrulls actually have powers. They do posses awesome technology though.

I mentioned in another thread Colm Feore should return as a Skrull, he was awesome as Laufey in Thor

They wouldn't be able to turn into other marvel characters that aren't under property under Marvel Studios. Matt Murdock and John Jameson are from Fox and Sony.

I liked how it led to the chaotic webbing on Venom though.

Anyway, I think the proportions on that image are too human. Something like this would be amazing.

I'd like something like the above pic.

 

[Obi-Ron]

Why does everyone assume that Skrulls will be in the Avengers? Where did that rumor come from?

 

[MahvelBaby!]

A long long time ago, it was some article claiming that The Skrulls and Loki would be the big bads, I can't even remember where exactly.

 

[Obi-Ron]

I'd hardly call that reliable.

You can't trust a stinkin' Skrull. They double cross each other. I kind of hope they just introduce them in with the knowledge of a Galactic War going on. They definitely must be intelligent and have advanced tech with the ability to augment certain warrior Skrulls.

They possess tech that allows them to infuse and mimic super powers.

Damn their eyes!!!!

Cool pic, but the snarling beast thing might spook the youngsters.

I think it would take more than that to scare kids nowadays.

Point taken. This is the only thing that scares kids these days:

Well theres been a ton of other articles since then and it is all we've had to go on, soooooo we just discuss what may happen, it could be some other Alien race or whatever but I guess we will need more details.

Well said sapling

Speculation....is what makes all of this fun

Even though some actual studio based news would be good.

 

[MahvelBaby!]

Maybe something like this? Less Snarling beast, and more regal like?

Oh yes ofcourse, but once we get some official news....we get to speculate even more stuff

 

[Atomicchuck3k]

That's what I'm talkin' bout. I believe having them intelligent and somewhat civil lends itself to have Skrulls appear in future MU movies and maybe one big MU invasion. Probably a bit much but one can hope.

 

[MahvelBaby!]

I'd like to add a thought I had....

One aspect of the supposed leaked script description I kinda liked

*Spoiler tags just incase it ends up being real* Although it seems bogus

Spoiler

Where Loki doesn't Summon the Skrulls just uses the Skrulls want of the Cosmic Cube to get them to invade earth. It makes a big difference to the story because being summoned randomly and just be mindless pawns, and actually having a motive to attack earth albeit due to Loki's treachery could be made an interesting plot point. Think kind of like how Loki tricked the Frost Giants.

Do you guys want a Herr Kleiser like super skrull? I am glad they can't use classic super skrull, as it would make no sense.
