That would suck. Dragging on the build up for too long. And by the time Avengers 4 rolls around, much of the current cast will have left due to contracts being up and a fourth movie with them being mega expensive because of their salaries.
We have spent this much time building to the Infinity Gauntlet. Dragging it on another 3 or so years after Avengers 3 would be bad.

Just spend Phase 3 fleshing everything out in the other films, then make Avengers 3 the big get together to stop Thanos. Only thing I can see them doing to be bigger than that is making Avengers 3 the holiday 2018 movie and then the may 2019 film being simply called "The Infinity Gauntlet" and throwing everyone in it.

Yeah, I think it's way too long. I mean at that point we're looking at literally a decade's worth of buildup, on top of the issues you mention (I think genre fatigue and actor issues are their two biggest hurdles).

It's not like they'll run out of ideas for Avengers 4 either. Sure, there's no villain quite like Thanos that they can use that has the same impact (especially after Ultron getting his own film and Doom being restricted by rights), but there's always adaptations of Disassembled/Civil War and perhaps even the Thunderbolts they can use.

Yeah, Thor: TDW's credits scene firmly established Thanos/Infinity Stones as the current overarching storyline of the MCU. I can't see Feige letting the Phase 1 stars' contracts end before it can be resolved.

Slightly off topic but Badass Digest seems to think James Gunn is going to direct Avengers 3.

http://badassdigest.com/2014/07/21/who-will-direct-avengers-3/

How long do you guys think it'll be until Gunn calls BS on this as well?

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I imagined Gunn doing this

 

[Nova Prime]

What I've learnt from watching that extended tv spot is that I've been pronouncing Thanos wrong for years. Always thought it was said like 'Thah-naws' as opposed to 'Thay-nose'

 

[Christoff Yurievich]

Well that's an interesting tweet.

I did the same

Premiere in 3 hours!

 

[Gartooth]

Well that's an interesting tweet.

Huh...

From what Fillion is saying, it sounds like he is pointing towards a rumor being bullshit that has yet to be called out. ("A lesson coming") It could be the one about Gunn doing Avengers 3, or something else that we don't know about yet.

The TV people are wrong.

(still sticking it to everyone and pronouncing it Thah-nose.)

Oh god I don't know if I can last until next Thursday. My thirst for this movie is too real

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Well that's an interesting tweet.

Avengers 3 rumour maybe.

 

[J10]

They Knows.

 

[Neoxon]

I'm playing MK8 to kill time.

 

[Hindle]

Can someone brief me on Ronan the Accuser? His powers and background etc.

he's a simp

But he has a big hammer. *rimshot*

 

[terribletwo]

There are probably still people tweeting to ask him if he is Nova

 

[Showaddy]

His comic backgrounds very different to the film version to be honest, the whole killing Drax's family, serving Thanos and super-villain deal are all original to the film.

Here's some background on the comic character if you want though:

Does he have the same abilities in the film?

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Yeah Ronan is probably going to be a case of benefitting from not knowing anything from the comics.

He is not an outright villain in the comics and they seem to be playing him otherwise for the film. Pace described him as insane, which I wouldn't infer from Comics Ronan.

 

[bananafactory]

Well that's an interesting tweet.

Could be related to this? (POSSIBLE GOTG SPOILERS)

Think I'll sort myself out a poster and frame on Friday for this

 

[sol_bad]

So happy that there are advance screenings for the 1st of August in Australia!!!
One thing I'm surprised at is that Marvel haven't shown a 5-10 minute teaser during the commercials like they did with the Winter Soldier.

Are these being held by Village Cinemas?

 

[TEJ]

I'm buying my ticket soon, gonna be seeing it with Neoxon

 

[Diprosalic]

I'd be so disappointed if Whedon won't be back for A3.

 

[sol_bad]

Event Cinemas in NSW.
I'm not sure who Village Cinemas are attached to.

 

[v1lla21]

Damn, I can't see it opening day anymore. I got my schedule changed at work and I'd be getting out rather late and I'd be too tired to enjoy the movie hopefully my girlfriend can get a refund.

Where do you see info on this? I'm trying to find advance screenings in the Gold Coast (in Queensland) to no avail. There is an Event Cinemas here though.

 

[Lashley]

Me and my two friends are buying out tickets for the 31st on Friday. Can't bloody wait.

Cool thanks. Doesn't look like there is anything here in Hobart then. Spewin'.

 

[Moaradin]

Oh man that 5 minute extended clip was amazing.

 

[Chezzymann]

Man this thread could have 1,000 posts before august 1st lol.

I wonder if this is the most hyped marvel movie on GAF

 

[sol_bad]

On the Event Cinemas website. On the left hand side is an advanced screening button, then a list of film's appears, then the cinemas the advance screenings are at.

 

[Neoxon]

Man this thread could have 1,000 posts before august 1st lol.

July 31st alone would generate mass amounts of posts.

 

[PhoncipleBone]

Just wait until the movie opens. If it does halfway decent, the thread will still be lively.

But if it is a huge hit (or huge flop), this thread will explode.

Has there ever been an OT2 for a movie thread? Not saying that this could get THAT big, just curious.

If there ever was one, Avengers would have been the one to do it.
