It just seems kinda weird because she got the suit at least a year ago in universe. I understand sitting out Civil War but you'd think it'd be all hands on deck for Thanos.

Maybe adding a 68th character would cut every character's screen time from 4 minutes to 3 3/4 and they just couldn't have that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetyrPunkinhead Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 It's epic just to see all of those actors on one stage together, so I can't wait to actually see them in character and on screen. I'm as hyped for Infinity War as I am The Last Jedi, and that's a considerable amount of hype, people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatCoward Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Realistically, outside Hulk and Thor, who even has the skills/powers to trouble Thanos? Wanda and Vision may be up there, but who else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The BlackBear Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Dr Strange has to challenge him on a magical level. I'd be very surprised if he wasn't their way to level the playing field. Physical is useless unless you negate the gauntlet somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Dr. Strange can find a way to foil Dormammu, who pretty much matches, at least, Thanos in the power rankings (though perhaps not if Thanos has a fully bedazzled Infinity Gauntlet). Then he along with a few of the other WMD level Avengers could go toe to toe with Thanos. In the Marvel Comics, doesn't Odin kick Thanos' arse? Personally I think it would be good for the movies to actually show how OP Odin is. We think Thor is all that, but Odin is on another level. I think the defeat of a gauntleted Thanos needs Odin in addition to the Avengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a really interesting character and I appreciate what's Tom has done for the role but he needs to die soon and stay dead. Im tired of writers and directors fascination with villains and then their multiple books, movies, and stories about said villain and their sympathetic backstories.

I feel like they seem to be setting up Thor: Ragnarok as the consequence of Loki exiling Odin to Earth and Odin losing his identity and his power. Loki realising he's screwed up big time, getting Thor and Hulk to help rescue Odin and return him to his place of power. If Odin is going to die then he should die as part of the defeat of Thanos. It should need to take a lot more than Hela and Loki to take out Odin. I do see that Anthony Hopkins is not listed among the known cast for IW, so you are probably right that Ragnarok is this Odin's final movie.

It seems likely they'll have Thanos kill him after he hands over the Tesseract. Thanos should still be pissed about his failure in the first Avengers, plus it'd be an easy way to establish that Thanos is in another league than the enemies they've faced so far. 14 hours ago, The Anti-Targ said: Does he?

Well they aren't currently planning any more solo Thor movies. I'm sure Hopkins doesn't want to keep doing this forever. Plus I think there's something to be said for killing him off and leaving Thor without that safety net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antony Hopkins appeared in Transformers 5 which I think is a good indication that he's willing to appear in just about anything if he's offered enough money.

True. But I don't really see the incentive for Marvel to keep offering him a lot of money when they have so many other characters to play with.

Corvinus85 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 New Thor trailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastard of Boston Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 This Thor poster is only slightly less awesome than that trailer. I swear, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is all that gives me joy in these dark times. Some random info from the panel: Michelle Pfeiffer is playing the Janet Van Dyne version of Wasp in Ant-Man and the Wasp. Perhaps explaining the candid remarks about DC v Marvel a few months ago, Laurence Fishburne defects -- he'll be playing Bill Foster aka Black Goliath aka Giant Man in Ant-Man and the Wasp. Guess Perry White will no longer exist in the DC movie universe? Here's the big news: Captain Marvel will feature the Skrulls. Highlighting what James Gunn said in the past, Marvel can and WILL use Skrulls. The movie will also take place in the 90s. Will relativity play a role in how Brie Larson can be an Avenger? Here's some concept art... Uno Dos Tree They also showed more Black Panther footage, which got a standing ovation. They continue to fuck with the people at home by showing the Infinity War footage to close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Channel4s-JonSnow Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 That trailer is a vast improvement on the first one. I can kind of see what they are going for now. Hopefully its not the bland CGI fest the first one appeared to be. This one appears more like a bridge towards Guardians of the Galaxy and the new Avengers movie. Lightweight, comedic, colourful and over the top. I really like it. However there is a limit to how much CGI action I can take, none of it has any real emotional impact because it just looks like a cartoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastard of Boston Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 There's a bootleg version of the Infinity War trailer doing the rounds -- it's only about half the screen, at an angle, and the audio is terrible, though. I'm hoping better versions pop up or that Marvel will deem the crappy leak important enough for an official release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RumHam Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 7 hours ago, Leap said: Hide contents Where to begin? That looked outstanding. Possibly favourite tease is the Fenris Wolf, which was amazing. Lightning-Thor looks awesome. I hope he wins the fight with Hulk, and that's how Banner ends up getting woken up (if you recall from Age of Ultron, that's the only way he gets taken out of Hulk mode when Natasha isn't around). Surtur looked great. Similar to Dormammu though, but I expect that to change. Hide contents I think the trailer makes it clear that Hulk smacked the shit out of him and Thor was just lying because he knew Banner wouldn't remember. Though that did strike me as odd because I thought Banner did remember and was tormented by his actions as the Hulk. Interesting that Captain Marvel will take place in the 90's. I'm really glad to see them move away from the "movies take place roughly when they come out" thing. I hate it when they make it seem like Iron Man somehow caused super heroes to start existing. (Other than Cap and Ant-Man and the Wasp) Also Coulson better be in it! They should even get Agent May, but I know they probably won't because the TV and film departments can't play nice. Also I'm pretty sure that's the last film on Jackson's contract, so he may well die in Infinity War. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastard of Boston Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Maybe a 90s Captain Marvel is their way of introducing the time gem. I'm not going to bother posting it, because the link would get axed as soon as I hit submit, but there's a watchable version of the Infinity War trailer online. Also, some sweet concept art posters, featuring the bearded Cap and blonde Widow. Here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
