We can expect casting news about Ant-Man before year's end, also it is apparently gonna be a heist movie.

A heist movie, eh? That makes me feel like they'll go with JGL.

Super Mario · Oct 23, 2013

A heist movie? like Ocean's Eleven sort of thing? If so then definitely Lang is in it or the O'Grady guy.

The Twilight Mexican · Oct 23, 2013

What I was thinking. Rudd would be the better choice were this Pym, but otherwise, it should probably be JGL.

Super Mario · Oct 24, 2013

JGL denied rumours man, I wonder if he's just bullshitting us for the plot twist. If its a heist film then its definitely more Ant-men uniting together. I hope they make a reference to Selvig at least since in a deleted scene for Thor Pym was referenced and friends with Selvig. : x imho Selvig is lucky to know Banner AND Pym. xD

It occurs to me with all the characters being added to the Marvel Cinematic Universe that by the time they've battled Thanos, somebody more notable than a fan-beloved SHIELD agent will have to die.

Super Mario · Oct 25, 2013

Could be Iron Man. As much as I hate to see the prime starter for this wonderful franchise die, RDJ seems to be getting tired of being Iron Man and he wants to move on. I hope he doesn't. He's just too damn good. I wish they would do at least 2 more standalone films then I would feel truly satisfied but we make do with his Avengers-only appearances here on out.

Tetsujin · Oct 25, 2013

That's still a whopping six films featuring the armored avenger, at least.

I don't think they'd kill him off though...

The Twilight Mexican · Oct 25, 2013

He really seems like the best choice for a number of reasons.

Tetsujin · Oct 25, 2013

I think they'd think twice before potentially killing a franchise. Especially seeing as how Marvel is apparently willing to move on with a different actor for Tony Stark if they need to.

Super Mario · Oct 25, 2013

I'm not saying it's a bad choice to be Avengers-only, I'm just saying it limits his development with James Rhodes and Pepper Potts as I feel it needs some more with standalones and because how disappointed I feel when I revisited Iron Man 3 -__-;. No offense to Shane Black, but he did a good and bad job that I have a love-hate thing for Iron Man 3 in both terms of the villain and the ending which hyped me up back then assuming he would be one of the defenses of the world against Thanos. I only got a shitty treatment wherein it became a farcry from how cool Iron Mans 1 - 2 were and replaced with comedy. The only aspect I enjoyed of it was him overcoming PTSD, The Mandarin (trailers only) hyped well, Can You Dig It Credits, Jingle Bells suit up and the Iron Legion. I'm wishing for another standalone film that's NOT a superhero rip-off of Lethal Weapon and actually brings proper threats than just a jargon of asspulled plots Killian did.

And the REAL Ten Rings Leader this time, not some cheap ass actor posing as him. I know The REAL Mandarin II is lurking somewhere in MCU and it can't just be Killian.

Super Mario · Oct 28, 2013

Double post but I think I know what is the best candidate for Phase 3 after Antman and pressumable Dr. Strange and Guardians 2:

About time we get a black superhero and this guy is one of my favourites after Avengers Earth's Mightiest Heroes premiered! The theme has to be in the credits too because its damn catchy and gets the vibe of Wakanda and its culture, history and beauty. Marvel I hope Black Panther comes soon :' )

Aaron Taylor-Johnson closes deal to play Quicksilver in Age of Ultron

The Twilight Mexican · Oct 31, 2013

I still find it very surprising that they're bringing Quicksilver and Wanda into this. Even if the film avoids The M Word, which is a stated goal, this ties the Avengers film franchise to the X-Men's corner in a pretty significant way, what with those two being Magneto's offspring.

Tetsujin · Oct 31, 2013

Watch them not being Magneto's offspring. :thor:

Super Mario · Oct 31, 2013

Hayyyy fuck you 20th Century fox for not releasing it back to the MCU. I would have killed to see Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart with RDJ and Christ Evans.
