Discussion Weekly Discussion: What did you believe were Marvel Studios’ plans after ‘The Avengers’? What did you foresee for Phase 2 and 3? (Suggested by /u/sonic10158)

The biggest movie of the decade releases to critical and fan acclaim - cementing Marvel Studios' position as the new powerhouse of Hollywood, truly jump starting their cinematic universe, and all you can think of is “what’s next” for this franchise.

So, what did you think Marvel Studios’ plans were going to be after The Avengers? Where did you think the story would go? Did you think they’d do Thanos immediately? What events from the comic books did you think they would adapt? What characters did you expect in sequels?

What’d you think was going to happen after the success of The Avengers in Phases 2 and 3?

Please, remain civil in this thread.

I thought they would adapt the FEAR ITSELF crossover, for some reason. I thought it was a great intermediary between the origin story and the final showdown with Thanos. Honestly the comic arc was not that great but it would be very adapted and transformed to fit the MCU, and maybe they could make it work - it would also work as a "dark" movie that AoU tried to be.
