Loki and Hulk’d be pretty cool

Yes Joss Whedon, please include a giant purple alien who sports pointy golden shoulder pad and who loves to accessorize with fabulous over-the-top jewelery.

The cynic in me says Thanos might be in it to screw DC over from using DARKSEID, who Thanos was based on!

NO NO NO no more aliens it really sucked in FF2 movie I liked it and all but it really was tooo much to take in. Loki is enough to bring the team together but nothing else

Cast Kevin Grievoux for the part. The physique, the voice, it’s all here.

I think including Thanos is wayyy too much. The guy needs more room to grow and develop. They run the risk of Spider-Man 3, shoehorning too many villains into one movie…I agree with what was said before, KEEP IT SIMPLE. Save Thanos and Ultron for later. I want to see Tony Stark and Thor on screen sharing some drinks though…

Avengers 1 – Actually, they could probably pretty easily adapt Ultimates Volume 1 into the first Avengers movie with some minor tweaking (probably leave out the whole wife beating thing)…You could have LOKI manipulate the Hulk, either through mischief or mind control, causing the Hulk to go on a rampage and the Ultimates have to take him down SHIELD’s and the AVENGERS reputation is severely damaged when it is revealed that SHIELD was harbouring a fugitive. Simutaneously, you have the Skrulls (I mean Chitauri – Who worked as Nazi’s/Hyrdra for movie purposes) working in unison with Loki to take over the US. The film culminates with the big battle and the redemption of the Hulk.

Easter Eggs – Hank and Janet Pym (working on Giant Man formula and/or Ultron)

I don’t think they will cram the movie with that much story lines. Remember that this is planned to be a series of 3 or more movies. The first of course will deal with one central plot: The coming together of the Avengers. I think they will deal with something local at this one mostly. Then all the others will be hinted like maybe a secret invasion with Thanos watching and bidding his time and maybe even pulling the strings behind a Kree-Skrull war. I don’t think the writers are that stupid to plunge the story directly into a cosmic setting. I also think that if the Nick Fury movie goes through it would be about a secret invasion directly tying it to the next Avenger movie.

I don’t want to see Namor, Thanos, Skrulls, Dr. Strange or any of that stuff in the Avengers. Outside on their own? Sure. As part of the Silver Surfer movie or an FF remake by Disney or who the fuck knows. But not in the Avengers.

We need to see Loki. The Wrecking Crew. The Masters of Evil (Call them something else). KANG THE F-ING CONQUEREROR!!! ULTRON!!! Any of that. THAT is the AVENGERS.

I don’t know why they need to F with that concept and shove all this space shit down our throats. Don’t overdue it. Stick to the source material, it is GREAT.

In the begining of the Avengers, I could see how the The Hulk is the catalyst character that brings Captain America, Thor and Iron Man together because Nick Fury tells them this is that great danger that no single one of them can fight. SHIELDs involvment brngs in Hawkeye and Black Widow whom we’ve already seen. Once they get The Hulk in control, its revealed that Loki made The Hulk crazy using the Cosmic Cube which then would make him and the other race of aliens, the Skrulls, the enemy for the last part of the Avengers movie. Then at the end you could have a set up for The Avengers 2 against Thanos or you can just have have the some of the other heros guest star in Iron Man 3, Thor 2, and Captain America 2 to take down Thanos.

@vinnie boombats
there was a issue in the incredible hercules series where two eternals named ikarus and mercury mistook him for another eternal named heracles so i was thinking it would be a good idea just to combine the two in order to set him up better. the thing is with marvel and dc, you would want to streamline things to make it seem better connected and less arbitrarily put together.

for example, i would change beta ray bill’s place of origin to one of the nine realms, preferably the one with the fire demons. that would work out better because it would give him a better connection to thor because it could a tale of him trying to prove his worth by fostering better relations with the other realms and creatures. he teams up with bil to take down surtur who is a asgard-hating tyrant and for bill’s bravery odin grants him stormbreaker,

@Joey West:

That’s the dumbest excuse I have heard yet. Thanos is an Eternal gone bad. Why can’t Marvel ever stay true to its source material?!

Thanos was revealed to be half-skrull in Universe X Hugo, so the Thanos as a skrull thing would have precedence although Universe X was an alternate reality story it still sets the precedent for a skrully Thanos

All I really want to see in the first Avengers movie is Loki tricking the Hulk since that is what happened in the origin story…

Wow Carmichael…I really dig that! I’ve been trying to think how this would all work out but i think you may be right! I would totally watch that! I hope you’re right actually!

Because it wasn’t The Eye of Agamotto, it was The Warlock’s Eye.

I think Loki will bring the Skrulls with the Cube as a way to defeat the Avengers. They will find a way to open a portal to Asgard, bring back Thor, defeat the Skrulls and, as a last resort, Loki will ask for a warrior capable of destroy Thor, and Thanos will appear.

Of course, the Eye of Agomatto was also in the trophy room and no one’s saying Dormammu will be in the Avengers movie…

If they could use Namor, that could be a real treat. After finding Captain America on Ice… Avengers Assemble, awesome sub-aquatic cities, atlantean armies and big bad sea monsters, with the Prince of Atlantis on top.

I don’t want to see the Skrulls OR Thanos in the first Avengers move.

-pt.1 intro: The Avengers in battle with Loki.
-pt.2 flashback: Assembly of the Avengers
-pt.3 main: Thanos and Skrull Invasion of earth.

2,5 hr movie and Whedon is the man…

Skrulls is a terrible idea. I have NEVER really been interested in them and think they would be very uninteresting in the movie. Loki sure… Tom Hiddleston was great in Thor. And Thanos being teased for a sequel sure, but Skrulls… who cares? Secret Invasion was so boring I could hardly believe it

If they bring all these characters in the movie. The only way they can make it perfect is to treat it like lord of the rings. I think the Avengers should be treated that way. Something vast and textured. This would be incredible if done right. Make it into three parts. Introduce new characters along teh way, and retire ones as teh movie goes on. Only then will all these characters work. If not we’ll see Spiderman 3 or Batman and Robin. And no one wants to go back there.

its way to much for a 1st movie. unless they plan on making this a 2part movie.

What does Herc have to do with the Eternals?

By: Joe

Joe — Sat, 28 May 2011 03:29:48 +0000

Oh yeah and Antman and the Wasp please.

By: Joe

Joe — Sat, 28 May 2011 03:26:37 +0000

I think it would be a mistake to fit Thanos in this. I think as a cameo to explain the Cosmic Cube like someone already said, yeah. Not only that it could set up a future Silver Surfer movie if Marvel desires to extend their brands into one shared universe once the FF rights go to Disney. I’m thinking do the traditional Loki/Hulk thing in the first. Kang the Conqueror in the second (introduce Ultron and the Vision) and then Ultron as the big bad of the third. By then I don’t see Downey Jr. sticking around. You could throw in the Skrulls in there somewhere, but honestly I don’t know what Marvel’s fascination is with them these days. It over complicates everything. I am so sick of Skrulls and Kree and all that for a long while. Actually Mar-Vell is awesome but I digress.

ziyad — Sat, 28 May 2011 03:20:20 +0000

Actually, it would be ironic for thanos to be a skrull because in ultimate ff, he was leader of the kree. I really dont mind him being the leader of either because it makes it more connected. but the eternals woud be a good way to bring in hercules.

Guys.

Ultron is the Avengers’ ultimate villain.

By: Phil

Phil — Sat, 28 May 2011 00:00:55 +0000

Surely Korvac – actually an Avengers villain as opposed to a big cosmic villain who appeared in a crossover – is the “Avengers’ ultimate villain.”

By: DK

DK — Fri, 27 May 2011 23:23:54 +0000

Actually.

This could make sense. Maybe even work.

If the Infinity Gauntlet is in Asgard, that gives Odin an excuse to send Thor back to Earth (That dickbag stole our glove. Get it back, kiddo). And what could be cooler than having the wielder of the Infinity Gauntlet fight against [Thor after-credits scene spoiler]?

Do I think it will work? On the fence. But it could be friggin AWESOME.
