Captain America: The First Avenger-Review, Discuss, Grade, Sequel, DVD

[davejames]

Yeah I'm curious if they're planning to introduce any new characters (to later be inserted in an Avengers sequel), or are they just going to stick with these ones for a while?

And as for Cap, I think it's probably a good idea to set any sequels in the present day. It's fine to have a few flashbacks to WWII, but ultimately the idea of him in the modern world is a far more interesting one, I think.

Iron Man 3 and Thor 2 from Marvel Studios. From Fox, Wolverine 2.

Natasha will be there more for the use in a "love triangle" I think.
Maybe Tony finally coats her gauntlets in gold!!! For better functionality of course.

I'd love to coat her gauntlets in gold!

@davejames I fully expect them to get around to the Winter Soldier story as has been discussed earlier in this thread. Most likely we'll meet Sharon Carter if we don't see her in a cameo in "Avengers" first.

I think my ideal stories for the sequels would be Baron Zemo, and perhaps Arnim Zola, in Cap 2, and then Winter Soldier combined with the return of the Red Skull in Cap 3. That's assuming the Red Skull doesn't reappear during The Avengers, of course.

Fox still has to schedule "Fantastic Four" and "Daredevil", and First Class 2.

[Skywalker]

I'm still holding out hope that the rights to the Fantastic Four will revert back to Marvel. I know it probably won't happen, but I wish it would.

[Admiral_Young]

Me too unfortunately they're not since Fox is doing reboots. The rights are the only reason reboots are happening as I tried to point out a few times in the Spider-Man thread. Now with the Disney merger, both Fox and Sony know that Marvel is chomping at the bit to reacquire their characters. Basically the studios need to keep chalking out movies for them to retain the rights to those characters is how it works. I had kind of hoped they'd make a push for both FF and DD but not the case.

Any reason why Thor gets pushed to November?

[Admiral_Young]

^ Probably because of "Iron Man 3"?

[Skywalker]

I think part of the reason was the change in directors, too. But I don't mind the change. This way we get less of a gap between MCU movies. Plus Thor seems kind of like a wintery character, anyway. Must be the Norse thing.

[Admiral_Young]

I actually like the date as well.

[captcalhoun]

X-Men First Class 2 starts shooting in January, so may be another for 2014...

[Admiral_Young]

I would say summer time 2014 is probably a very likely date for FC2. Maybe June or July.
