and one of my favorite Marvel characters.
It's a real pity that Spider-man wasn't in Avengers due to Sony exclusive movie rights, we missed out on his witty jokes and his glorious web slinging action sequences.
Yea. Would've been fun to see him be a dick to them at first.

Hey guys! Time travel's been confirmed to be a plot point in Avengers 2!

Who wants to bet that Loki is going to do that thing where he uses his powers of impersonation to complicate Thor's love life?
Wah... How do you get to watch it so early?
It opens early in some parts of the world (probably to offset piracy and such).

Quicksilver should just straight up say he's Magneto's son and then look straight at the Fox HQ building in new york and be like "Come at me bros"
Put on The Avengers in the background while I did other things. NOPE. Sat and watched all of it ahead of Iron Man 3 tonight. A lot better than I remember too.
Nathan Fillion is the only right casting for Ant-Man. Someone mentioned Ewan Mcgregor, screw that. Bradley Cooper could be good too. As long as it's not Simon Pegg or Michael Cera, it's all good really!

It might not be as far off as it we think. You guys remember this story, right?

There's a billion+ dollars to be made in an Avengers w/Spider-Man. I'm sure if Disney/Marvel pick up the production tab, Sony would grant the rights for Parker/Garfield, as long as they get a decent revenue cut.
Though Disney is a stickler for cash...

There's already been a billion+ dollars made in an Avengers movie without Spider-Man. In what way does it make sense for Disney to throw away a chunk of that to appease Sony?
Especially when Amazing Spider-Man didn't exactly light the world on fire. There's nothing worthwhile there that Disney would go out of their way to shoehorn into their movie.

I heard Fillion didn't wanna do it.

I'm not saying for Avengers 2, but possibly for a future Avengers movie when the franchise needs a financial spark. Spidey is huge in the Asian markets. ASM outgrossed all Phase 1 Marvel movies (sans Avengers) in Global Box office returns.
Global returns:
ASM - $490M
Iron Man 2 - $311M
Thor - $268M
Iron Man - $266M
Captain America - $191M
The Incredible Hulk - $128M
For reference:
Avengers - $888M
SM3 - $554M
SM - $418M
SM2 - $410M

Some people like to pretend that ASM bombed when that is in fact far from the truth.
Yep. That, It opened a week early in Latinamerica and UK (I believe other countries too). And i just going to say
HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT WAS FUCKING AMAZING!!!!!
Here's your spoilers for how Coulson is explained in the new SHIELD tv show...

I fully expected this. Simplest solution = best solution.
Only thing that will bug me if they dont explain how he survived against that magical staff.

That'd be a neat way for SHIELD to stay pretty grey. I bet it's not as it appears, though.

Well the thing about
Maria hill being in on this wouldn't make sense with the scene in the movie where she points out where his Cap trading cards actually were. Although that would hint towards her first knowing he is not actually dead, the playing along when he realized what Fury was up to.
In any case, that's pretty much what a lot of people thought really happened, and Coulson is confirmed to be on the pilot at least.
Screenwriters Markus And McFeely Talk CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER, There's A Rights Issue With Modok?
This makes no sense. I'm pretty sure Fox or Sony don't have rights to MODOK. And AIM appears in Iron Man 3. So what's the problem?

I really hope that it's not because of Fantastic Four. I really hope that they misunderstood the situation. We'll see.

This makes no sense to me. Why would M.O.D.O.K. appear in Days of Future Past? Dinklage is in the film, maybe the writer is confused and they were referring to that.

750 million dollars WW doesn't sound like a flop to me. Sony basically has to make sure each Spider-man film is at least decent and it'll make this type of cash.

The only way Sony doesn't make mad cash on a Spider Man film is if they make one where he just starts murdering children.
The franchise is a guaranteed money maker.

Exactly, but you still see people acting like it was a huge flop and that the Iron Man franchise is much hotter, ASM outgrossed IM2 by like 100 million.

They often compare it to the old trilogy's success which were released under different circumstances than ASM. Sam Raimi's first Spider-man movie was the first time Spidey appeared on the big screen it was a event movie like the Avengers. Of course by the fourth movie there are signs of fatigue plus the fact that its a new cast Oh and ASM2 will gross a billion.

Considering the Iron Man 3 rumour was false I would say like 1%. I am pretty confident he won't show up and that GotG will be its own thing...which is perfect and the way it should be.
Actually Iron Man 3 was the last film in his 5 movie contract. He is confirmed by Joss Whedon for Avengers 2 though so obviously a second contract has been negotiated now, we just don't know the specifics yet.
Downey's contract was only for 4 movies: 3 solo flicks, 1 Avengers.
I know Whedon mentioned Downey in his last Avengers 2 update, but he's not really the one to decide whether or not someone can come back; more like, he's writing the script as if Downey/Stark will be in it. But he most likely will be back anyway.

I'm pretty sure it was a 5 picture deal but his Incredible Hulk appearance was one of those.

The 2 movies are probably going to be A2 and A3. I think they are going to take a break from the Iron Man movies and probably want to keep him to round out the Avengers trilogy.

A Phase 3 with no Iron Man film would be a bold gamble.

I think there'll be a fourth Iron Man film, but it'll be at the end of Phase 3 instead. Possibly as a way to introduce the new guy playing Iron Man, for Avengers 3?

I don't think they'll change the character, it will remain Tony Stark. They talked to RDJ about it, he said he loved the character (b/c it's literally him), but he understood that he couldn't play it forever and that he hopes someone would become Tony after him.

That's what I meant, the new actor for Tony Stark/Iron Man.
IT also means nothing to the story.
Spidey has never been a big part of the Avengers.
Yes, he was part of the "New Avengers" arc that Bendis did... but he serves no real purpose. He's not part of the classic line up, him being there adds nothing to the movie either.

In the comics, has anyone assumed the Iron Man position other than Rhodey? I'm thinking when RDJ leaves they'd do a TDKR type thing where some young buck comes in. I think people would be annoyed at someone else trying Tony/RDJ's schtick.
And if they played the same role and just behaved out of character it would be weird for no one to mention it (imagjne a Doctor Who where no one says anything about the regenerations).
I love the idea that Marvel seems to understand the importance of not losing momentum in this universe by constantly rebooting. I want this to last.

There was a weird ass thing where a teenage Tony became Iron Man. Other than that there's a weird/evil future version of Iron Man called Arno Stark. Other than that I can't tink of anything at the moment.
RDJ has no contract with Marvel right now, they're still negotiating. But as of IM3, he's fulfilled his obligation to Marvel.
My guess is that he'll sign for Avengers 2 and that's it. He has said more than once on the IM3 press tour that he's become less and less interested in doing blockbusters, so he's definitely not going to re-up for another multi-film deal. He'll probably agree to Avengers 2 and maybe a smaller supporting in Avengers 3, but I'm guessing he's done with solo Iron Man movies.
That comment was for genre pictures as a whole (which includes Sherlock 3), not just Iron Man.
