Iron Man is going to be released next year,Thor and Captain America are in the works.News about these films got me to think,are we closer to having an Avengers film?

How could it be done?What do you want to be in it?Which heros should be in it?The villains,the stories?I think there should be a thread for it...put any news about a proposed Avengers film here..

As for me,i think the film should have Captain America,Iron Man,The Wasp,Thor and The Incredible Hulk.The original members..as for villains..Baron Zemo and The Masters of Evil.

Let the discussion begin..
 
The six founding Avengers vs. Ultron ("Ultron Unlimited" meets "I, Robot")

Tony Stark recruits Hank and Janet Pym, along with Bruce Banner, to develop a new unmanned Iron Man suit: Ultron. The prototype is deemed a success but it goes out of control, wreaking havoc and eventually escaping. Subplot deals with Hank's inferiority complex because Ultron being based on Hank's brainwaves and causing mayhem.

Stark, Banner, and the Pyms band together to face Ultron in whatever city it's rampaging. Cap and Thor, seeing the destruction, join the others in thwarting Ultron and keeping the Hulk in check.

Having escaped, Ultron creates an army of lookalikes using stolen technology from Stark Industries (or SHIELD). The army of Ultrons aim to purge the world of mankind. The six heroes band together again to repeal the army, repelling the army while Hank, having overcome his personal issues, manages to defeat the original Ultron. Having defeated the threat, Janet suggests the six of them work together more often as the Avengers. Enter cheesy, flashy final scene. Credits roll.

The end.
 
I really really really want Kang played by Liam Neeson as the villain for an avengers movie, but I think he might serve a sequel better than a first movie.
 
In my perfect world it would be a trilogy. In the first film, Stark wants to start the Avengers with his friends Hank and Jan. The government, i.e. Fury won't sign off on it until they can put a few millitary people on the roster. After Lt. Carol Danvers USAF declines, the Avengers look scrapped. A dejected Tony Stark goes to Norway to meet with their government to make a business deal with Stark Enterprises. While there he comes across Cap's frozen body and takes it to the states to see if Hank can replicate the super soldier syrum. This angers a local nutcase who claims to be the Norse god of thunder.

Back in the US Cap is thawed and to everyone's surprise, he's alive. Fury agrees to fund the Avengers if Cap will agree to be on the team. When he does Thor arrives claiming that no good can come of the US reclaiming its most powerful weapon. Thor only wants peace and sees the Avengers as aggressors.

Meanwhile, the Red Skull, under his alter ego of Dell Rusk is running for president. He plans to rebuild Nazi Germany here in America. And it is up to the Avengers to stop him. Because of this Thor agrees to join the team. Giant-Man, Wasp, Iron Man, Captain America and Thor= The Avengers!

The constant growin up and down messes with Hank's head and he becomes, well, a jackass. He and Jan leave the team after defeating the Skull to work on their marriage. Cap leaves to find himself in this new world while the peaceful Thor returns to Norway, leaving Tony Stark with a bunch of unanswered questions.

In the second movie, Avengers Return, NASA learns of an alien invasion headed for Earth. The Avengers are called into action so Stark recruits, Scott Lang, Wanda Maximoff and Clint Barton. Fury assigns Black Widow to the team as Cap returns to lead the team. Hank and Jan split up and Hank busies himself by working on this new Ultron robot. Stark also lobbys to get hsi attorney, Jennifer Walters on the new team.

The invasion is lead by none other than Kang who has come to Earth looking for the missing cosmic cube that he believes is somewhere in the US. He turns the nation upside down looking for it but in the end the Avengers, Cap, Iron Man, Ant-Man, Hawkeye, Scarlett Witch, Black Widow and She-Hulk stop him.

In the end, Ultro who has been loyal to Hank throughout the movie vanishes.

In the third film, Avengers Dissasembled, the Avengers are called into action to help a trapped astronaut in space. The astronaut is none other than Carol Danvers. She has been zapped by some mysterious rays and when returned to Earth is put in an isolation chamber.

Hank meanwhile has decided that he and Jan should leave the team for good. He brings in his newest invention, The Vision, to take their place.

When the Avengers wake the next morning though, things have changed. Iron Man is no longer dependent on anything syntetic to keep him alive. Cap is in his late 80's. Fury has both eyes, etc. The only person who seems to remember the past is Carol Danvers who was locked in the isolation chamber. When she comes out everyone is calling her Ms. Marvel. Confused she goes to the Avngers for answers and helsp everyone remember who they used to be. It is discovered that Wanda is to blame for the current state of things. The only answer is to kill her, but her friends won't do it.

Later it is discovered that Ultron has found the cosmic cube and has forced Wanda to do what she has done. The Avengers defeat Ultron, reclaim the cube and set everything back to normal. Hawkeye and The Vision are dead, and no one will remember the sacrifices they made.
 
Captain America, Thor, Iron man, Wasp, Giantman, Wanda Maximoff and Pietro Maximoff versus the Skrulls (Its not like FF are going to use them).

Normally I'ld say they should fight the Masters of Evil but the name sounds a little silly for a feature film debut

If need be (and I agree, there is a need), come up with another name for them; the "Brotherhood of Evil Mutants" is just the "Brotherhood" in most adaptations/updates of the X-Men, and that works fine.

Based on what we know of Marvel's film plans, Captain America, Iron Man, and Thor are in, as well as Ant-Man (but the current film plans have Scott Lang in the present, which would prevent Hank Pym and Janet (at least, conventional Janet) from being on the team), and possibly the Hulk (I don't think he works as an Avenger, so I'd keep him off).

In terms of villains, Ultron would be the best choice, I think.

I really want Kang, as I think he's a better villain than Ultron, but Ultron is definitely a lot more of a simplistic villain that's easy to understand for everyone.

Given that the first movie has to assemble the team, I think it's better to have a villain with a more straightforward origin, given the amount of time that putting the team together and establishing group dynamics requires. Leave Kang for a later date.

Yeah...since Marvel likes movies in threes...maybe

1- Ultron
2- Masters of Evil
3- Kang

Kang demands being the center of attention too much.

Some ideas:

-Why not call the Masters of Evil the Thunderbolts? It sounds cooler.
-Also...I'd have The Masters and The Avengers team up to stop Kang...I mean Kang's a pretty huge threat when written right?
-after the 3rd movie do Thunderbolts and Young Avengers spin offs.
 
I would say that The Masters of Evil should be in the first film,Kang should be in the second.A good back story needs to be made first,before anything else is done.

As for the team memembers,i don't expect to see much more than the original team.
 
With JLA becoming a CG movie, a live action Avengers movie (done in the quality of Spider-man and Iron Man (as far as I can tell right now))
would give them a chance to look like a different movie and seperate the two Super teams.
Just a thought I had.
 
actually me i can't wait to see the upcoming film of iron man.. how to know whats new about that film..

I agree with the idea of the Masters being called the Thunderbolts :up:

Heres my list...
1- Skrulls
2- Masters of Evil/Thunderbolts/Liberators
3- Kang and Kree empire maybe
 
1) Loki
2) Ultron
3) Kang
4) Kree Skrull War...oh yes.

Btw guys...I'm working on a Kang Dynasty script right now; it's not an origins though, it's meant as a sequel...I'll post it in the fan fic thread when it's done.

no one confirmed that the jla movie with be full cgi as of yet, its a rumor only. :whatever:
 
For me my team is Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Wasp, Ant Man and Vision vs.either Ultron or Kang.
I think more than 1 villian is unnessary and could get confusing, to many people, that we have to keep up with.
I know that Jon Favreau said that Iron Man 3 was being considered as the launching point for Avengers, with Stark recruiting and founding the Avengers, but that was before they started filming Iron Man, it seems Marvel's time table has speed up.
 
I would like to see an Avengers film featuring Ultron as the main villain. More than anything though, I hope it's a quality film and not something just thrown together.

I think Marvel is following the best route by establishing the heroes in their own respective solo films first before bringing them all together as a team. By doing this, and having the same actors play their heroic characters in an ensemble film helps cement continuity and creates a Marvel Universe on film.
 
I think it's fairly doubtful Ultron will be the villain in the first film,i bet the film will follow the comics..and either Loki,Baron Zemo and the Masters of Evil or Kang will be the villain in the first film.
 
I've done this poll before, but I had way too many options. This time I've narrowed it down to just three.


Kang
Masters of Evil
Ultron

Your choice?


edit: **** I forgot to add a poll...anyway to add it retroactively?
