Nobody's said its happening yet. Just that they have some guy working on it. There have been numerous treatments for Superman movie that never saw the light of day.
Never.

To be fair, Edgar takes his time- it took fucking forever for Scott Pilgrim to enter production. Likewise for him to do the script for The World's End.
But Pilgrim happened, The World's End is happening and Ant-Man will happen. And they will be glorious. Edgar doesn't waste time.
Not "some guy working on it", Edgar Wright has a script written for the film, and has been developing it for a number of years. When he's free, they can jump right into it.
He also has signed on to do a Kolchak the Night Stalker film starring Johnny Depp so we will see how the priority goes.
I would honestly love to see Ant Man work just because I want to see MORE Marvel on the screen, I want to see all of my comic favorites up there so that there can be huge cross overs and people popping up in each other's movies.

I'd rather have the other way round with Pym creating Ultron to help defend Earth against any more ET attacks/invasions and Thanos messing with it somehow. He's crazy smart, so it wouldn't be a leap to think he'd able to do it.
Movie ends with them having gone through hell to defeat Ultron, about to head back to HQ when a portal opens. It's Thanos and he instantly lays the royal beat down on Hulk before turning to the rest of the Avengers with a huge grin on his face - roll credits.
I know some disagree, but Thanos strikes me as a end game villain. someone you use to end a trilogy.

T'challa beat Mephisto dude, taking down the Silver Surfer shouldn't be any harder.
Superhero movies always goof with the way that they introduce "the big bad" early and scrape the barrel in preceding efforts or make the next guy even more outrageous.
Honestly, I'd like to see Thanos be the new post-credits thing for a while. After each movie we see him preparing to take the Avengers down, and when it finally happens it's a huge payoff again. The problem with a cliffhanger ending is that it fucks with the continuity if they don't do Avengers 3 immediately.
I guess, we'll probably end up with Thanos in 2 and Ultron or a gang of villains in 3. :/
Either way, I want Thor 2 to end with Enchantress catching venom that is to drip in Loki's eyes.

Big reason why I want a GotG movie before A2 is so Avengers 2's opening can basically be Thanos wiping the floor with the Guardians, for a decent "shit's gotten real" moment.
And before you go "OH MAN HE BEAT UP A TREE, A RACCOON AND A DUDE WITH A PISTOL, SO BADASS lol" it'd still be useful for setting up Adam Warlock.

Which is why I don't really like BP that much. The writers really go overboard with what he can do. The character has potential, but the super Mary Sue stuff has to be toned down a bit. I mean, Capt America salutes him, he can beat up a super skrull without breaking a sweat, he beat up the devil and judo'd Silver Surfer? Some call that badass. I just call it boring.

The way BP took down Mephisto and that Skrull seems totally in keeping with the capabilities and rules of both characters.
Silver Surfer arm-lock definitely doesn't, mind.

I'm sure they could find a way to have the downer cliffhanger ending and still have room for stand-alone movies in between Avengers 2 and 3.
Just have them beat Thanos at the end of A2, but don't kill him. While he's retreating through some portal or something, one of the Avengers gets caught with him. We don't have that Avenger's solo movie this cycle. We might see teases of him in the stingers of the other solo movies, but we don't find out exactly what happened to him until Avengers 3.

I want them to beat Thanos to the point where he's almost dead, and them have him retreat back into space when he realises he can't win but they won't kill him. Seeing as that's the nightmare scenario for Thanos.
Then do a Thanos Imperative film.
He is far from Batman characterwise. Other then being rich and liking dark colors they nothing a like.

Black Panther is nothing like Batman. That's just what people say if they have no idea what Black Panther is all about.
That is one thing I hate about comics and always will.
The fact that you can have a character who can make worlds cower, make the hardest of heroes second guess themselves...
And then in another book a different writer comes along and that being gets clowned so they can pump up their character for their run.
It is like bad pro wrestling booking.
Some characters should be constant. Good and bad.
Their should be guidelines no matter who is writing it, for the good of the overall universe and continuity and if a writer can not agree than he can not use that character.

I totally agree. Sorry, but that's not the Mephisto I know about from other comics. It's basically one step away - and serious! - from Squirrel Girl beating Thanos. The uber-powerful characters should not take a nosedive so whoever the flavor of the month is can just chuck a "force field" around 'em and beat them up.
I mean, that's why we have the Wrecking Crew!

SoundWorks Collection talks with Supervising Sound Editor, Sound Designer, and Re-recording Mixer Christopher Boyes about his work on The Avengers. And yes, there is discussion on Whedon being involved with it. ;P
Also, the next issue of Cinefex should be really interesting to anyone who cares about vfx creation as it will cover Avengers, Battleship, Prometheus, and Snow White & The Huntsman.

I'm actually annoyed that I have to wait until the Cinefex issue comes out next month... I forgot that they were every other month rather than straight monthly. Would love a companion guide for this just as Joss has done some for his other works (Cabin in the Woods being a recent one)
Alright, I'm intrigued. Is there a BP trade paperback or something that is a good start?

Sounds like Bat-God over in DC. Has Grant Morrison been writing him?

The Secret Invasion Black Panther stuff is extremely good but I have no idea how important Ororo is. This could pose a problem in the long run.

They already did, Agent Coulson that died was a skrull copy and the real son of Coul is a prisoner.
Who, Storm?

Black Panther is a cool character, but don't go overboard buying into the fanboy-wanker version of him.
Same goes for Wolverine, Batman, Iron Man, etc.

Yeah, you might wanna read HOW he beat Mephisto before saying writers go overboard with him. Put simply; he PLANNED for it. ...he even planned for his a worldwide financial crisis in order to defeat a villain...or something along those lines, I'd need to reread that story, but for beating Mephisto? He planned for it.
I mean what, is Batman the only one allowed to have a plan to take down a demonic overlord?

i posted it above. before hudlin, he used prep time correctly to defeat his opponents.
Christopher Priest's run on the character is pretty highly acclaimed. Ignore anything written by Reginald Hudlin, it's garbage.
