Welcome to the main discussion thread for the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This pinned post is here to establish some basic guidelines. All of the Media Forum rules
still apply.
- This thread is for talking about the live-action films, TV shows, animated works, and related content that use the Marvel brand, currently owned by Disney.
- While mild digressions are okay, discussion of the comic books should go in this thread
. Extended digressions may be thumped as off-topic.
- Spoilers for new releases should not be discussed without spoiler tagging for at least two weeks. Rather, each title should have a dedicated thread where that sort of conversation is held. We can mention new releases in a general sense, but please be courteous to people who don't want to be spoiled.
If you're posting tagged spoilers, make sure that the film or series is clearly identified outside the spoiler tagging. People need to know what will be spoiled before they choose to read the post.

Michael Pena is returning for Ant-Man and The Wasp.
Awesome. Hopefully they don't run the joke into the ground.
Also the GOTG have been confirmed for IW
, but more interestingly Vin Diesel seems to be a part of it too. Either confirmation that he's also going to be voicing Baby Groot or that full-sized Groot returns in some fashion by that time.

I'm sure they wouldn't bench their Do-Anything Treant for the whole movie, would they? Growing back to full size wouldn't even be the most impressive thing Groot's done so far, what with rising from the dead from little more than a twig.
Can't pick your friends, right? And Michael Pena was great in that movie, happy to have him back.

I'm really curious what hair they're going to go with. Carol's always suffered from Depending on the Artist so they have a wealth to choose from. The mask might be less likely due to Marquee Alter Ego reasons.
Every master of the heist needs a crew - even if that thief happens to be doing that less-than-legal stuff on the side of the angels. Especially if they don't have a ubiquitous and unendingly powerful corporation backing their every move. And also given that after Civil War Scott's a fugitive again - even moreso than before.
The end of the movie gives the impression that they fill that niche - Luis especially feels like he's Scott's "agent" of sorts, scouting out odd jobs and prime offers. I don't know why they wouldn't show up again.

I do hope Infinity War focuses on a team-up between a team of Lawful Good Avengers led by Tony and a team of Chaotic Good Avengers led by Steve.
Oh hell yes!
But what about a Neutral Good team led by Doctor Strange?
Well, there's a team-up with the Chaotic Good Guardians of the Galaxy also.
That's Spider-Girl/May Parker. Silk is Cindy Moon who was kind of a weird Mary Sue character when she was first introduced but now that she's got her own solo she's a more well-rounded and sympathetic character with a design that isn't Fetish Retardant anymore.
Yeah, her introduction was pretty notoriously awful, but after she got her own vastly improved solo title, she's been Rescued from the Scrappy Heap in the eyes of many.
If that story is true, then cool. I don't buy it at this point, partly because of the unreliability of many of these early leaks, and partly because the character's name is still mud with a lot of people, but yeah - if it's true, cool.
If Cindy is in the film, I would expect it to be little more than an Easter egg for comics fans. Like "ooh, guess who this character is? Does her nametag say Cindy? I think it does!" Basically just setting her up for potential future developments.

Forget if this was posted already. Also whether we already knew or not that the Eye of Agamotto was going to be green, which lends even more credence to the idea that it's probably going to be the Time Stone.
