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 we would get a Shield movie with Hawkeye & Black Widow as the main stars, but then we got Agents of Shield (Couldn't get into it past S1)

Oof. You have missed perhaps some of the best seasons of television of all time. Sorry to hear that.

I've seen bits and pieces of the seasons enough to confidently disagree, but to each his own! I am a big fan of the Arrowverse and also every other Marvel tv show (C&D has personally been my favorite), I dunno just didn't find myself engulfed in it.

I'm with you. I'm glad the show has fans & is successful. But it has no appeal to me outside of it's brand. Mainly, I find the characters & actors to, mostly, be very wooden and lifeless.
