    Grace isn't afraid to against the grain so I'd never have described here as a thought leader. That's why I like her work; for better or worse at least you know she's going to say what she thinks.

    Avengers 4 is the closure to the last decades storyline.


    So begin the next decade one with FF & X-Men joining in would be alright.



    Just a pity Jackman and Stewart are now done with Logan & Professor X.

    I still hold out hope that X-Men will remain within their own universe. The property on film has shown itself to be more than strong enough to exist on its own within Stark & co. muddying the narrative waters.

    That's pretty much the definition of a thought leader, a person who other people want to know what they think!

    I've a feeling the Avengers are going to be rested for a few years save for the odd cameo and it'll be a mutant world for a year or two.

    If they stick to the comic book ending of Infinity Gauntlet,
    you could have the world not put back together JUST right and bam, mutants.
    the Avengers could be shown to retire and Marvel could spend a year or two really making us want a cross over.

    I guess it's kinda MCU now... at least enough for this thread!

    Dark Phoenix's (kinda boring) trailer was leaked in Russian, so it'll be appearing tonight sometime online, probably a little earlier than Fox were hoping for :D

    Ryan Coogler has been confirmed as the writer and director of Black Panther 2. Not earth shattering news given the first films success, but still good to hear. I though he did a great job with the characters.

    The thing is though, on TV at least, the MCU has gotten around the inability to use "mutants" by introducing Inhumans, science experiments and aliens. It'd be kind of hard to explain where mutants were up to now.

    Not really if they do some timey wimey thing in Avengers 4 and rewrite the timelines.

    I thought this was a good read about how they could do both the X Men and Galactus.

    That being said I'd trust Feige in saying nothing will happen in Phase 4. He seems the kind who will be upfront if he can.

    My brain is still trying to comprehend seeing Galactus on the big screen. Perhaps not compelling enough on his own to tower over an entire phase but the tweaks they gave Thanos were excellent, so I'm sure they could do the same with Galactus.

    I'm kinda offended you're all talking about the potential villains coming back and none of you have mentioned the actual MVP.

    Needless to say Doom would be a class phase villain... and Norman....jesus, still hard to believe all these properties are under the one roof. Great time to be a fan.

    Norman might not be for long. Venom did gangbusters so Sony's gonna think they can do it on their own. Sigh.

    I suspect there'll be a massive drop-off in Venoms's takings this weekend.

    Hmm not sure about that, between Bruce Wayne and American Psycho I just see Bale as a ... well, psycho yuppy type. Logan feels like he should be played by an earthier, swarthier kinda guy. I'd suggest Idris Elba but I know how that might go down ... ;)

    I reckon they’d be going a bit younger, most likely someone in their 30s.

    In the comics though Wolverine is an mvp. A battle hardened legend. That's why I think they need a major casting of maturity, someone with intensity and charisma like Bale.

    Mel would be ace. Could be to Wolverine what his mate RDJ is to Iron Man.... IF he had the enthusiasm for the role.

    I think he'd be way too old at this stage for an MCU version. Maybe as a one-off stand-alone movie, but not for a decade worth of movies, which I'd expect the MCU to want out of a main character.

    I would love Marvel to give HJ an old man Logan time travel thing so he could interact with the MCU, and mainly insult all of them. Even if just the once.

    You could argue the toss with Wesley Snipes but Jackman's Wolvie was a huge formative part of the super hero movies we all love now. It'd be great for them to show some respect for that.

    Yup... Tobey Maguire too as Spiderman. Between those three, they really kicked off the thirst for quality superhero movies. There were plenty of misteps that followed them (Catwoman, Fantastic Four, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, The Punisher, Daredevil, Ghost Rider) but some other signs of brilliance (Batman, Hellboy) that, along with the sequels to Spiderman, X-Men and Blade showed there was an audience there.

    Yep, this could work, and Jackman did say in an interview that he wouldn't have retired from the character if an MCU appearance had been on the cards.
