Lex experiments with a mother box and it winds up infecting him and they do the fused Brainiac/Lex angle. Pretty easy way to tie it all in without retreading too much

Is it weird that I don't think that this looks that bad? A bit boring maybe, but not bad. Usually, when you have a nationality-themed team, you get Alpha Flight.

Because the Eye of Agamotto is supposed to be mysterious and mystical, its an integral part of the Dr Strange mythos and just tying it into the overarching plot and making it a MacGuffin is goofy. Are the Avengers going to barge in and take it from him?

I don't see why it can't be both. Mysterious and mystical stone crashes to earth eons ago and magic cults start up around it, etc

If they want to focus on team ups and such I think it'd be more likely to have Blade in Dr.Strange 2 or something along those lines.

Yea, and because Hank is a lovely person, he keeps her away from the mission even though it's obvious that she is the better choice.

Yeah exactly. I mean that's a main character point for him and directly sets up the mid credits scene/sequel

If it didn't bother you, that's great. Please continue to not let it bother you and/or explain why it's feasible. But this movie went through a lot of effort to explain things and break them down in a way that made them seem grounded in reality, so having a major situation glossed over really jumped out at myself and many others. You were almost dared to question it.

Be a good way to get around not being able to do Hulk solo movies. Thor gets there, Hulk's already suited up and a champ and can talk, "I've been through a lot in the last year".

plus it leaves things open if they do want to dig into that history a bit more

Oh this was posted in reponse to the image in the Facebook thread



Which is funny for two reasons becuase A) Thor is a literal god and B) That was kind of the idea behind Marvel comics. DC heroes were mythical figures, they were Heracles, Sigmund, Gilgamesh, Sampson. Marvel heroes are normal people who have problems of real life combined with super hero problems. This person who made this post was clearly just trying to be edgy going "dur Marvel movies look like cartoons for kids, DC movies are serious movies for serious adults", but was unaware of the irony.

No one cares that you don't find her attractive, just that you said it in a weirdly lovely way.

Honestly with all the timeline fuckery I would be okay with the X-men franchise just being stand alone movies and saying "Oh well in this timeline this happened"

It's honestly the best way of looking at them. Treat each film as it's own continuity and it all makes a lot more sense.

If they do Agent Venom there's a workable movie in there that doesn't make a lot of sense without tying it to Spider-man, but could work. If they try to do Brock then I don't know what the hell they're thinking.

At best though all I can think is kind of generic "Superspy with an experimental armor" story.

Don't get me wrong, I like Brad Pitt as an actor, but he seems a little "big" for a comic book movie where he plays the straight man second banana

That's pretty much his Ocean's 11 character. He also seems like the type of actor who will do something just because he thinks it's fun, so I could see it.

So I'm thinking Marvel needs Thanos to be the biggest threat the MCU has ever seen -- but at the same time he needs to loese, maybe not in Avengers 3, but certainly by Avengers 4. Scarlett Witch seems to be a natural, in-universe way to level the playing field so the rest of the heroes can take him down.

I mean I'm just fanwanking, here -- they could do literally anything. But I don't see how a last-minute save by Adam Warlock (for example) would be narratively satisfying. So what are some alternatives?

e: Maybe Squirrel Girl can sit down with him and work out his issues. Didn't she do that with Galactus once?

Even better
