    Hi all,

    giphy.gif?cid=19f5b51a5d2c6098515a59396bac0675&rid=giphy.gif

    As you all may or may not know, I have mad love for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I’ve been messing around with this idea for awhile and was afraid the questions weren’t challenging enough, however if I go too deep I may never come back out so here we are! I hope you all enjoy.

    giphy.gif?cid=19f5b51a5d2c61d1774a677032954b48&rid=giphy.gif

    Name a movie in phase 1
    Name a movie in Phase 2
    Name a movie in Phase 3
    Name one of the Infinity Stones
    Name one of the original Avengers
    Name a baddie in one of the Marvel movies
    Name a female Avenger
    Name a male Avenger
    Name a non-human Avenger
    Name a location of one of the infinity stones
    Name one of the new suits in Iron Man 3 (Name not Mark number)
    Name a planet in space
    Name a S.H.I.E.L.D agent
    Name a fighter in Thor:Ragnarok
    Name a place the Avengers fought in
    Name a song from Guardians of the Galaxy: Awesome Mix Vol. 1

    Bonus question: Name my favourite Marvel movie

    So the aim of the game is you’re picking the most unique correct answer. I’ll do the reveal in about two weeks time, I just need to check my roster to see when I’m free. PM your answers in the order they are listed, unnumbered and no Google.

    Note: The bonus question will hold no points value and is purely for my own amusement but any aces will win my heart forever ;)

    Good luck and god speed, Avengers Assemble! :D

    Entered. Couple of tough ones there, I'll likely be settling for mid to lower table on this one I think. Good theme idea Skunk :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,392 ✭✭✭LadySkunk


    Apologies my dear fellows who have already entered. Edited to correct:

    Name a city The Avengers fought in

    Changed to

    Name a place The Avengers fought in

    Thanks for pointing that out in your answer BH, I originally had it as place but changed to city.

    You guys can just send me the answer for that one alone, no need to resend them all :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,421 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    Am I allowed to ask when/what the phases mean ? Phase 1,2,3 ?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,882 ✭✭✭tusk


    Submitted. I feel immense pressure and fear rn :O


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    yep, no idea about what these phases are.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    The phases are groups of the films usually topped off by one of the big 'group teamup' movies.

    Some phases have more movies in them, some less. I dont know if there is a way to figure out which movies are in which, beyond knowing.

    Ha no probs although if im totally honest I was hoping that'd be a good question for me with everyone else falling into the wording hole and missing an obvious answer.

    I'd wager the Iron Man 3 question might have a few stumped

    Im ashamed to say i remembered 8 of the IM3 suits names. I can remember looking some of them up during a rewatch.

    WOW - I can barely remember Iron Man 3 in general


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Its better on a rewatch.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    For question 5b, "Name a place the Avengers fought in"
    'the' being the definite article, it is only places where the full team which make up 'The avengers' were fighting, or can a smaller subset of the team be acceptable, as, its not very often we get the whole team in one place. and if latter, how small can this subset be.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    IMO, 3 Avengers or more and you can say the Avengers fought there. Up to Skunky though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,392 ✭✭✭LadySkunk


    Good question SK. It can be a smaller subset once they’re acting as the Avengers.

    So for example in Ragnarok, Thor and Hulk who are both Avengers are fighting but they’re not acting as the Avengers, they’re acting as the Revengers so that wouldn’t be counted :pac:

    I'm in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,717 ✭✭✭Midnight_EG


    Can anybody just join this? I've never played, but MCU is close to my heart and it seems interesting...I presume the 'rarest' answers earn the most points?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,851 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    I'm in.

    Your name is Mark Hamill, I think you're destined to say I'm in for the Batman WW thread not this one and somehow wind up behind the role of the Joker.

    whatdya mean off topic :pac:

    Everyone is going for the most unique answer, you get the best score if nobody else has yours :D

    No it hasn’t gained much attraction to be honest, only about 9 people have entered. Maybe if I put a deadline for it I could scramble a few more people :)

    Skunk isn't around at the moment. I'm sure she'll kick it back off when she's back :)

    I like the MCU and have seen a good few of the movies.

    Wouldn't have a hope with half of those questions. Some of them I don't even understand. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,733 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard

    Nothing is ever truly dead in the Marvel universe.

    Except Spiderman....

    One movie and they gave up on making him a central character.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    They dont have the rights to do solo films with him as the central character. Universal do. They have the rights to use him in team up movies, though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    quickbeam wrote: »

    2
    And they both tanked. Despite being good. Although the Norton one is or was meant to be MCU continuity I think. Recall scenes with him in a Cap movie getting cut. So yeah, 1 and done, point taken. But he wasn't really Hulk.

    Oh Bana my Banner! (Stands on desk)
