Sequels Who should be the villain in an Avengers sequel? (Poll)

[KangConquers]

Actually, you might as well credit Kang with 74, and erase Immortus. They're the same entity.

They're vastly different personalities though, and serve as different aspects of the same man. They're also arguably each other's worst enemies.

 

[Capt.America518]

To be honest, I think the only two villains that could work other than Thanos that would be somewhat mildly entertaining would be Ultron or Kang.... I'd prefer Ultron of course but Kang is good too.... Any other villain wouuld be an upset... I trust Joss Whedon to do the right thing here and pickk a good villain.... Unfortunately the masters of evil are a no go... UNLESS we see Zemo in Cap 2 (but still he'd be the only movie universe masters of evil villain on screen yet).

 

[marcvader]

I think Chen Lu will be in IM3

 

[Chewy]

Use Whirlwind as the Ant-Man baddie and you've got another

 

[BigThor]

The big 3 = those two plus The Masters. Sadly, we might not see any of the big 3 in Joss Whedon's avengers trilogy.

Yeah but I have a feeling that Ultron is gonna be the villain in A2, I don't think Joss can ignore such a big Avenger's villain.

 

[Silvermoth]

I'm still not entirely convinced about Ultron. I'm still keen on seeing the Avengers go up against their equivalent with a team of villains. So that it looks like this.

Group of individuals form a team to fight one guy (No contest)
A team fights another team in Avengers 2 (Evenly matched)
Hero versus hero in Avengers 3 (Oh the drama!)

It would be cool if they could use the Cabal as a Phase 2 lynchpin for example. They've already sort of hinted at it with the bureacrats in Avengers 1.

 

[DocHoliday]

I'm going with Thanos. Not just because it's the villain we'll most likely get but because honestly I think he's the most interesting choice, he just wants death.

Thanos

I don't want to have to wait for him to be in a third film where we might get god damn recasts since it will be quite a few years away.

I really do not get the appeal of Ultron, he's a ****ing robot.

 

[Joeyjojo72]

Korvac could work, but theyd have to rework his back story pretty extensively. But I like the idea of a human antagonist this time around, one who is imbued with vast cosmic power. The problem is he doesnt have any connection to Thanos as far as I can remember.

If Marvel is thinking along these lines, it would partially explain why they were so interested in Galactus and the Silver Surfer, both of which factor into Korvac's story. He also could be the connection between the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Avengers, as he was in the comics. Might work.

 

[Silver Surfer]

Kang, never really liked Ultron and Thanos should be saved for TA3. The only instance Thanos should be in TA2 is if Marvel gets the rights to Galactus for TA3.

 

[Chewy]

His defection turns a good, noble man into a broken shell of a person

It's one of the great stories in all of comicdom

Thanos

Nearly everyone is signed on till then. RDJ is the only one that isn't, and he might not even be in A2 because his contract runs out after IM3, although I imagine that Disney and Marvel will sign him up for as long as the current main cast by flashing some big money his way.

 

[BigThor]

Thanos = the new "it guy" on the MCU boards.

 

[Chris B]

A lot of presumptions on my part, but here's my take on how the Masters of Evil line-up could look in the MCU:

Zemo
Malekith
Whirlwind
Abomination
Leader
Ezekiel Stane?

The last one is a bit random, but bringing back a previous Iron Man villain is hard since they're all dead of course, and I can't see the Mandarin joining a team. I figure with Ezekiel, there would be room to tie him back to IM1.

Yup as do I. You and I have been praying this forever BT!!!

I dtrongly disagree.

Thanos

Are you serious?

Well for one, he turns a very good man into a broken disturbed person, really makes people think about their position in the world, really thinks, there is something to what Ultron is trying to do.

And he is probably the BEST avengers villain. It is inevitable. Ultron will be a villain for the avengers in the movie verse.

I honestly can't believe you don't see the appeal and think he is a "****ing robot"

he is so much more than just a robot

 

[jaqua99]

They would never let Thanos win.... If they did I would be very upset

Well, I mean I could see them have him win by assembling the gauntlet.

Bare with me. If he assembles the gauntlet, if he is able to defeat the avengers at one point (which will happen), then gain universal power.

That is part of his goal. But then, if they defeat him, and kill him.

Won't he still win?

He assembled the gauntlet, did what he wanted. Gained universal power. And then died, since we all know how much he welcomes death. Come to think of it, from his perspective, live, die, isn't it a win win scenario for him?

The first villain that comes to my mind when I think about The Avengers is Ultron, followed by Kang (my 2nd favorite Avengers villain).

Same, I prefer Ultron

 

[BigThor]

Yup as do I. You and I have been praying this forever BT!!!

Hell yes and I'm going to continue to do so until the actual villain for Avengers 2 is announced.

 

[catintheengine]

I don't know that Thanos would really invite death. As far as I know, his main motivation is that he wants to "court Death", or "appease Death", by committing universal genocide.

So, he could probably look at the Avengers as a challenge. For him, as a character, he probably sees the Avengers as "big game."

 

[terry78]

Thanos basically would be viewed as some kind of cosmic large scale psycho serial killer. Seeing visions of "Death" and wanting to impress her by killing billions. The character itself wouldn't exist in the movie-verse, but we'd see her visually as he would, a delusion.

 

[BlackFox]

Thano,s now I've seen him I want him for mass scrap in the sequal!!

 

[Silvermoth]

A mass crap?

I've said it all along, sure, Thanos may attack the avengers, seeing them as big game. But there is just too much going on. With what was said in the beginning of the movie to Thanos, by The Other. Knowing the Gauntlet exists. They aren't going to put that in there, just to have him attack earth, and the avengers. Sure, if his story stretches out to avengers 2, and 3, then yeah, he could attack the avengers, and then move on.

But the climax of the Thanos story, I see it as the avengers having to STOP Thanos from whatever it is he is planning, oppose to him just, coming to earth and attacking the avengers, then loosing?

Someone please tell me, I CAN'T be the only one who thinks this will happen, am I? With what we know about the character, his levels of destruction, and planning, and with what was said at the beginning of the avengers to thanos "The world will be his, the universe, yours", it just seems not right to simply have him attack the avengers, and then have his story end. Sure I can see him launching an attack on them and beating them, maybe at the avengers 2, but for the 3rd movie, or the second, however many there is with him, his climax will more than likely the avengers stopping him from completing his universal plan, oppose to him just...simply attacking the avengers...which is what A LOT of people here seem to be thinking, and in my opinion, is not what will happen

am I the only one who thinks this?

As said many times before, I like this, some sort of hallucination.

 

[Still A ThorFan]

Just for fun I'd love to watch Thor, Cap and Iron Man take on the Wrecking Crew, just put them in there for a good 10 minutes then get on with the story. Damn that would be so cool.

I'd rather see Thor kick their asses himself, that could be his film "intro" of sorts.
