Ok. So Ant-Man starts Phase 3. Does Phase 3 end with Infinity War part 1? How many movies does that put in Phase 3?

With this line up announced and after seeing the trailer for Age of Ultron and the little bit of info I've read about Ant-Man, I'm really having a hard time figuring out how AoU could lead into Ant-Man. Is it possible that Ant-Man ends up kind of being in it's own little world with just maybe S.H.I.E.L.D/Hydra connecting it to the larger MCU (similar to how Thanos and the Infinity Stones were really the only thing connecting Guardians and the rest of the MCU)

Maybe it'll act as an "epilogue" to AoU with a hint of Hank developing a sentient robot program called "Ultron" or something during one of the flashbacks. Nothing major, just that simple nod.

Like I think Marvel is over estimating it's name value and getting cocky by green lighting every obscure character they have

Captain Marvel and Black Panther are obscure characters? I mean I could give you inhumans (I had to check wikipedia and youtube to learn more about them) but it's not like they're newer characters like Sentry.

Last I checked, Captain Marvel has a very sizable fanbase on social media.

That could work, I suppose. I'm hoping for a little more than that though.
It'll also be interesting to see how they tie Agents of Shield and the Netflix series into the MCU. I'm thinking those shows will be greatly affected by the Cap- Civil War movie.
There is just so much happening and I can't wait to see how everything plays out and connects with each other.

The last Cap movie greatly affected SHIELD, so I imagine we'll be in for a similar effect for Cap 3.

As far as I heard, Cap 3 is the beginning of Phase Three. Ant-Man seems to act as an "epilogue".

So Thor 3 is supposed to take place immediately following Avengers 2 but they're are like 4 movies inbetween them (antman, cap3, dr. Strange, and Guardians 2) how will the continuity work with the movies laid out like that?

The same way it's happened in the past. We piece it togther later to fit a timeline. Let's face it, we know boy now neither Phase 1 or Phase 2 are in complete sequential order" I expect more of the same with Phase 3.

At a certain point in 2016, you will look up movies to go out and see and you'll have your choice of a Batman/Superman movie, a Captain America/Iron Man movie, or the X-men. All at the same time.

God.... I love everything.

[Ryushinku]

2016-2018 look particularly insane.

Re Phase 3 - it looks like it'd normally finish with Avengers: Infinity War, but since they're splitting that into two parts and that Fiege made a point of saying these were all part of Phase Three, it looks like Captain Marvel and Inhumans are part of that too. Whatever comes after Infinity Wars Part 2 would be Phase 4.

So, Phase 3 is Ant-Man up to and including Avengers: Infinity War Part 2. Ten films, almost as big as Phase 1 & 2 combined. Marvel are really going all-in with this, and furthermore going all-in including getting other franchises rolling alongside the big stuff like Thor and The Cap. That's smart to mix in.

Wanna know how I'm a super nerd? When Cap attempts to pick up Miljnor and it slightly budgets and Thor's face straightens up......yep.

I have most of the following year's set. I need the 2099 foil cards and the holographic Spider-Man vs. Venom one.

I have 2-3 of that hologram card. I tried forever to get them and then got two damn near back to back.

I'm interested in how an Inhumans movie will work... especially since one of the main characters can't talk... at all... not even in the I am Groot way...

So Basically I'm assuming Black Bolt isn't going to do much...

Get a theater guy who knows how to act to the back of the room, plus he fits a main tenant of movies "show don't tell" he will be fine.


So I am thinking Civil War makes a rift between the heroes and it turns out Thanos set it all in motion to do jsut that. So he invades afterwards as the heroes are broken. Both sides come to fight, but do it as two facts. Thanos is ready to kill Stark and Cap comes in and takes the blow saving his life. It makes Tony realize he was a dick and they all work together in the next movie. Maybe recruiting the Guardians.

Also I do not think they are breaking it up because they are trying to squeeze an extra movie (they can just make another), no, I think the story is too ambitious for one film.

that'd be WAY better than the actual Civil War book, I hated that book. If it was revealed that the Skrulls set it in motion in the buildup to Secret Invasion I wouldn't hate it so much

What order do you have the Phase 1 & 2 movies? I'm just curious if it's different than the way I see it.

Don't forget about another part people seem to be forgetting about - Defenders. Last we heard, they too could be connected to all this. If you think about it, between movies, television and comic tie ins, Marvel owns our wallets now.

Well, it's equal parts personal preference and from what I know from the tie in comics Marvel has released. For the sake of simplicity, I'll do two versions - with and without the tie-ins.

Without:

Phase 1:

Iron Man
Iron Man 2
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Thor's Hammer
Thor
Incredible Hulk
The Consultant
Captain America: The First Avenger
Agent Carter
Avengers
Item 47

Phase 2:

Iron Man 3
All Hail the King
Agents of SHIELD (Pilot-The Hub)
Thor: The Dark World
Agents of SHIELD (The Well-Repairs)
Guardians of the Galaxy
Agents of SHIELD (The Bridge-End of the Beginning)
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Agents of SHIELD (Turn, Turn, Turn-Beginning of the End)
Agents of SHIELD (Shadows-)

Now, add in the authorized comics:

Phase 1:

Iron Man
Iron Man: Public Identity
Iron Man: Agents of SHIELD
Iron Man 2
A Funny Thing Happened on The Way to Thor's Hanmer
Thor
Incredible Hulk
The Consultant
Fury's Big Week
Black Widow Strikes
Captain America: The First Avenger
Captain America: First Vengence
Agent Carter
Avengers
Iron Man 3 Prelude
Thor: The Dark World Prelude
Item 47

Phase 2:

Iron Man 3
All Hail The King
Agents of SHIELD (Pilot-The Hub)
Thor: The Dark World
Guardians of the Galaxy Infinite
Agents of SHIELD (The Well-Repairs)
Guardians of the Galaxy
Agents of SHIELD (The Bridge-End of the Beginning)
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Agents of SHIELD (Turn, Turn, Turn-Beginning of the End)
Agents of SHIELD (Shadows-)

As you can see, it's a LOT of material and stuff is still trickling in, thanks to SHIELD and any potential tie ins. But basically there you have it. To answer a few quick questions, I have First Avenger in its slot because of the framing story ( finding Cap in the ice). The order of Iron Man 2, Thor and Hulk is established by Fury's Big Week and that we see Hulk's attack on Culver University playing in the background of the scene between Tony and Fury at the end of Iron Man 2. Given when Coulson gets to New Mexico, that establishes a watching sequence, even if all three happen at the same time. The placement of Guardians is purely subjective, thematically it just works for me to have it after Thor because of the background material with The Collector. YMMV on that one.

Any questions?

Having seen Pike in Gone Girl just this week, yes f***ing please. The woman is a tremendous actor, I think she'd be amazing as Captain Marvel.

Right on. That's the order I have all the live action stuff in too. Are the tie in comics any good? Does it expand on any essential stuff?

How about Yvonne Strahovski for Captain Marvel
