Which Avengers should assemble in the sequel?

The Black Widow was well known to the general public? :dubious::dubious:

“Supporting role.” She and Hawkeye were definitely second-raters next to the super-powered and armored guys, even with the power of Scarlet Johansson’s Ass. :stuck_out_tongue:

Besides, She-Hulk is infinitely derivitive. Not a single thing she can bring to the table that is new.

I dunno…Spice Williams did pretty well in Star Trek V.

And the first thing that occurs to me to aid with the comparative puniness vs. attractiveness vs. uncanny valley issue is to subtly modify the hulking out—she doesn’t get an even split between “Jennifer Walters” and “She Hulk,” but her hulkness varies, increasing with the severity of the situation. Going from “green bodybuilder” to something increasingly monsterous, rather like she did in Avengers: Disassembled.

Another trick to make her look imposing, yet not grotesquely over-muscled would be just to cast her with a normal muscley actress/stuntwoman…but rescale her in CG so she looks about 7 or 8 feet tall.

Differentiating her fighting style enough so she’s not just “Hulk #2” would help, too.

Interesting thing there… She actually agrees with you on that point. Bit of backstory, Barbara Gordon (the former Batgirl) got her back broken and paralyzed from the waist down by the Joker some time back. Amazingly, she didn’t get miraculously healed, and the character has been confined to a wheelchair ever since. Well, she decided that that was no reason to stop being a superhero, and started calling herself Oracle, and specializing in information management in all its forms (hacking, detective work, etc.). And once she settled into the job, she realized that having her own independent identity suited her better than being a mere distaff copy of another hero.

And Tengu, the problem isn’t that She-Hulk is a hot woman with a sense of humor. The problem is her particular style of sense of humor. A She-Hulk movie, done properly, would be a silly comedy. Which is fine, as far as it goes, but it wouldn’t fit with the existing Avengers continuity at all.

The question is, does it have to be a boozy Stark? Or can it be an unnamed R&D guy at Stark Industries, played straight-laced by a bespectacled Tobey Maguire?

I think I love you.

There were too many Partridges to follow. Cut somebody from the Family.

Six is the perfect number. Don’t cut or add anybody.

Six is the perfect number, but it would be better if you cut someone and added (below):

The Family is great, but it would be better if you added (below):

Susan Cowsill

Tony DeFranco

Marlon Jackson

Jimmy Osmond

Mark Lester

Someone else (please specify)

I’ve got it. Squirrel Girl…played by Allyson Hannigan.

Whedon outta be able to sign her on. Her or Summer Glau.

That should add $30 mil to the opening weekend box office, no matter what the rest of the picture’s like.

As much as I dislike Wolverine being an Avenger, I can’t help but admit I would have been tickled to see him as a cameo in the movie.

Ms. Marvel should be added to increase the lady count.
I wouldn’t mind Avengers 3 having more of a shake up and adding Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch and Vision.

He’s already done him:
Black Panther (2009)

:smiley:

Just trying to keep to the character that RDJr. been playing for three movies now.

Okay, now *that’s *cool. :cool:

She wouldn’t have to be to powerful. Until the mid '80s, her powers were a generic zap-bolt, occasional “plot-resolving magic” and she could twiddle her fingers and give you bad luck of the “You trip over a piece of loose carpet” or “your gun explodes in your hand” variety.

That said, it took the better part of 30 minutes to explain that sort of power in a (really cool) episode of FRINGE, so…I doubt she’d work. Which is a shame.

I think that the Vision would add a lot to the cast–it’d be nice to have a more emo character since everyone but Thor is a snarker, but I also think it’d overload the movie.

I’d also love to see The Wasp in the movie, but it’d be impossible to film–there’s too much going on and when you’ve got a frame of a Hulk swinging a giant space mecha-eel around, how are you going to show someone a half-inch tall?

the Wasp. Man, the Avengers just ain’t the Avengers without Janet.

I said keep the 6 but I am partial to the 80s Vision and Scarlet Witch. Hawkeye has always been one of my favorites so don’t get rid of him.

Oooh! I actually did not know about that. How was he?

Why? Is there a single Allyson fan who isn’t also a Joss fan?:stuck_out_tongue:

And Summer can’t act well enough for a film with these kinds of stars.

Marvel’s Black Panther was a 6 episode animated series written by Reginald Hudlin for BET and broadcast in the US in 2011.
You can read more about it at the Black Panther (TV Series) page at Wikipedia

All 6 episodes are also available for viewing at YouTube:
Black Panther Series #1 (Djimon Hounsou doesn’t make his appearance until about 16 minutes into the first episode.)

Some viewers had a problem with the “motion comic” animation the series used. Personally I liked the show, if only because it introduced the public to comic book characters that previously only us fanboys knew about: Batroc The Leaper; The Black Knight; Deathlok; Ulysses Klaw and Radioactive Man all turned up.
However, I was slightly put off by the fact that all the American actors & actresses seemed to go overboard in their African (Wakandan) accents, while the one person who is actually FROM Africa (Hounsou is from Benin) didn’t actually sound African. (Not that it’s a strike against him since the character of T’Challa was educated in Europe and America.)

My wild ass idea…

The suggestion that Coulson be resurrected as Vision got me thinking. Here’s an established character that audiences know which could integrate well with the current team as he is already familiar with them. What if that idea was taken in the other direction? Have an already established female character become super-powered? Yep. I’m talking about Maria Hill. Naturally this would completely screw up comic origins, but no more so than Coulson becoming Vision. She could become a variation of Spider-Woman (ala Jessica Drew or Julia Carpenter), possibly with a different codename like Arachne. Any takers?
