Just thought I'd make a general thread about the Marvel films that are part of this universe. Most of these movies are good. *coughcoughIronMan2coughcoigh*. Iron Man 3 looks good. Also excited for the Thor and Captain America sequels.
 
Lucky there's a thread like this, because now there's big news, according to this IGN article:

http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/05/17/joss-whedon-talks-quicksilver-the-scarlet-witch-and-iron-mans-roles-in-avengers-2

Joss Whedon says that Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch will be in The Avengers 2. This development is interesting, because as some of you might know, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, while associated with the Avengers in the comics, premiered and are associated with the X-Men, in that they're both Mutants and are the children of Magneto. Problem here is that Fox owns the movie-making rights to anything associated to X-Men, so they can't be called mutants or mention anything about Magneto at all in the movie... so why even include them? Or how? Well, this other article I read goes into why that might be:

Either way, interesting new development! ...Also, I STILL can't believe they're going to make an Ant-Man movie... The Guardians of the Universe movie should be VERY... different, to say the least.

A little bit of both, I suppose... Though mostly it's because Ant-Man's origin story... or stories, since there's more than one Ant-Man, is so weird, and his powers don't seem that impressive. He just shrinks... and maintains his normal-size strength when he shrinks. I'm more interesting in how they'll actually do the movie than genuinely excited for it.
 
The title for Avengers 2 has been revealed!

"Age of Ultron"... For those of you who don't know, Ultron is a Marvel villain who was created by Henry Pym, aka Ant-Man, who was based around Pym's brain patterns, developed it's own intelligence, and rebelled against his creator and eventually became a regular Avengers villain. Hearing this means we'll likely see Ant-Man in this movie, what a twist!

Another twist is how we all thought Thanos would be the main villain in the second movie. They had us all fooled!

what if he still is the main villain

and, like, ultron is his puppet or something
 
That might be true, though I still doubt anyone was expecting anyone other than Thanos to be the main villain.

That's not part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe...

Unless that article mentions how Sony's letting Marvel Studios do a cross-over or something, but that doesn't look like the case according to that article.

Oh sorry about that. If Spidey was to become an Avenger would that make him part of it?
