[Movies] The Avengers 2

I was just meaning what I typed, it made me think of The Wonderful Wold of Disney that used to show on Sunday nights, and they'd show the old promo reels that Walt made about EPCOT. (and of course the modern take of that with Tony Stark and his dad with the Stark Expo stuff in IM2) It's a happy memory for me, and Bhamv3's post made me this about that this morning.
 
Samuel L. Jackson dropped that Elizabeth Olsen (the younger sister to Mary-Kate and Ashley and with more talent than both combined) has been cast as Scarlet Witch.

That's a bit of a strange choice. Strange always struck me as someone who should be played by a Shakespearian actor.

I just can't see Hamm saying "By the hoary hosts of Haggoth!"
 
Someone elsewhere on the net suggested Liam Neeson for Dr. Strange. Which I think would be awesome if he wasn't getting up there in age now.

I can definitely see him playing "pre-accident" Strange. Hell he practically WAS Don Draper before he became humbled.
 
Although it sounds as if the movie is getting a bit crowded, it seems like a natural fit in the movie given the characters ties to Ultron and to the Scarlett Witch.

And now, Latino Review is reporting that another Marvel character will be in Avengers 2 -- Ms. Marvel. If this is true, and it's hard not to take it with a grain of salt considering they can't even get her name right in the article, I suspect the character will appear as Carol Danvers which provides a lead in to a Phase 3 project in 2017.
 
I feel like they're introducing characters just to kill them off. The Chitauri blew up New York? Yawn, they were up against civilians and beat cops with pistols. But if you see Ultron effortlessly murder a powerful superhero, now you know the shit's hit the fan.
 
I can't imagine Captain Marvel would be introduced just to be killed off.

It does make sense to put her in Avengers 2 if, for no other reason, because the studio can claim bragging rights by getting her on the big screen before Wonder Woman.

That's not hard. Making a Captain Marvel movie would be far easier than any Wonder Woman movie. Simple reason? You can get 5 Captain Marvel fans in a room and get them to agree what kind of movie they would like. You ask 5 WW fans what kind of movie they would like and you'll get 5 different answers, ranging from WWII movie to Angry Lesbian who hates all men.

I'd really dig it if Carol Danvers is in Avengers 2, you know... just some ace pilot that gets a quick scene.

Aren't the Kree in GotG or am I making that up?

I don't know to what extent we'll get the Kree, but I know the film's main villain will be Ronan the Accuser. Here, he's serving as an agent of Thanos.

There's no definite source, but there are rumors that Jarvis (Paul Bettany), in an attempt to hack Ultron, needs to make physical contact.

Vision, baby.
Aw hey my rumor bin was actually correct! 8)

That makes be bummed for what they told me about Cap 2.
 
I'd prefer a silver-haired Quicksilver, but it's still not bad look.

Also, I would've loved to see Wanda in her European gypsy look ala Busiek & Perez' Avengers run, but again, I'm okay with this look.
 
It looks like Hulk Buster is in, concept art shown in the Marvel Special tonight. They even showed a bit of Ant-Man at the end of the show without mentioning the character.[DOUBLEPOST=1395195984,1395195941][/DOUBLEPOST]ninja'ed
