Well I'm guessing everybody and their mother heard about the Marvel Press event yesterday that basically rocked the Universe and gave joy-gasms worldwide.
So like a good nerd I followed the live blog on Marvel.com basically thinking Benedict Cumberbatch was going to revealed as Dr Strange and that yes Iron Man will face off with Captain America in Cap 3.... boy DID WE GET SO MUCH MORE!!
1. We got the Phase 3 Marvel slate and it is as follows-
after Ant Man next year we jump into 2016 with CAPTAIN AMERICA CIVIL WAR....then DOCTOR STRANGE.....then we roll into 2017 and a shift to 3 MARVEL MOVIES A YEAR!! 2017: GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY 2.....THOR RAGNAROK....BLACK PANTHER....oh and yeah Chadwick Boseman is T'Challa the Black Panther..... then you catch your breath and go into 2018 with AVENGERS INFINITY WAR PART 1 !!! then... CAPTAIN MARVEL....then INHUMANS....and to close it out at the beginning of 2019: AVENGERS INFINITY WAR PART 2
2. Black Panther will also feature in Captain America Civil War
3. Carol Danvers is the Captain Marvel story we are getting
4. A teaser was shown with THANOS wielding the Infinity Gauntlet for INFINITY WAR part 1 and 2
5. The Black Panther concept costume art was shown
6. All title cards were shown for the Phase 3 films
7. A very telling scene was shown from AGE OF ULTRON between Rogers and Stark
Both Robert Downey Jr and Chris Evans appeared and they introduced Boseman to the stage.
So..... WOW!!!
Ummm Feige also confirmed HULK will appear in many of the Phase 3 films: best guess? GUARDIANS 2, THOR RAGNAROK and then the 2 part INFINITY WAR
So afterward the internet blew up and here we are. DC had their slate announced...more like a wish list compared to Marvel. Marvel responded with this EVENT. They invited press to a theater, had teasers and actors and concept art...WB/DC had a shareholder meeting. Marvel isn't messing around. They have 100% confidence in their properties and they are going balls to the wall. Great for fans...I am a fan of all so I have no preference but for the DC fanboys...Marvel showed you why they are number 1 and at the top of the mountain.
I will be re-watching all the footage and the teasers and posting thoughts and speculation for AGE of ULTRON and Phase 3 here in the coming days and weeks... oh boy was yesterday emotionally uplifting.
THANK YOU MARVEL.
