Marvel
Studios just released a list of their upcoming films which is called
Phase 3. With a total of nine films that seems like quite a bit but
DC released a list of ten (click here to read that) so it doesn't seem quite as bad
particularly when you take into account that DC is stretching with
some of their choices. Meanwhile Marvel has me either confused or
excited about theirs.
Marvel
has their movies coming out at an alarming rate once they are
released which seems to be cramming as much in as they can. This can
be good if you are a fan or have lots of money but bad if you don't
or have no back story on some of the characters. As much shit as I
talk about DC for making an Aquaman film starring a guy that has the
acting skills that border on Klingon, people still know who the hell
Aquaman is.

2016: Captain America: Civil War
Excitement
Level: 5/5
Such
excite! I have loved both of the Captain America films when in
reality expected these to be the absolute most dull out of any of
them. I never thought that a guy frozen and brought back to life that
fought with a shield could kick so much ass and bring such a great
dynamic to a team that has a monster, a metal man, and a god. I'm
confident that whatever they do with this guy it will be exciting at
the least and mind-blowing at the most.
November 4 2016: Doctor Strange
Excitement
Level: 4/5
Yes! I
used to be a big fan of this guy and am happy that he is getting his
own film. Years ago I thought that Robert Downey Jr. should play him
but we all know how that turned out. Early this year when I heard
there was a movie planned I made a list of the three actors I thought
should play him and one of them, Benedict Cumberbatch, may actually
be doing it. This film could either be terrible or shockingly good.
May 5 2017: Guardians of the Galaxy 2
Excitement
Level: 5/5
I
loved the first film way too much to not be excited about the next. I
don't even care what the plot is supposed to be as long as the same
cast is involved. I laughed when I first heard they were even being
made into a movie thinking that Marvel had run out of ideas. Boy, did
they prove my dumbass wrong! If this is even half as good as the
first it'll still be better than most.
July 28 2017: Thor: Ragnarok
Excitement
Level: 1/5
No
thank you. Thor is the Aquaman of the Avengers. Just have him show
up, throw his hammer at something, and leave. Even the studios know
that he is shit without Loki around to make him interesting. You
could say Hulk is the heavy lifting brute, but at least he is
interesting. They have managed to make a guy that is a damned god
that lives in a magical land that you cross a rainbow bridge to get
to uninteresting! How?! They can keep this shit. Ain't fooling me
three times.
Nov 3 2017: Black Panther
Excitement
Level: 3/5
Now,
this is a cool character and all but he would need to be involved in
the other films before a single damn is given by most people. And
they have the guy that played Jackie Robinson and James Brown playing
him because he is “That Black Guy” right now. This could have
easily been Michael B. Jordan but he is gonna be in the Fantastic Four movie coming out. Actually, that didn't stop them from making
Captain America be played by the same guy that played Human Torch.
This should've come out years ago and starring Wesley Snipes or
Djimon Hounsou. This has the potential to be cool.
July 6 2018: Captain Marvel
Excitement
Level: 2/5
I am
surprised that this is a thing. They are saying that Carol Danvers
will be the Captain Marvel in this version which would be cool...if
they could tie it to the X-Men films. I say that because at one point
Rogue attacks her and steals her powers totally fucking her up. That
is how Rogue got super strong and invulnerable. This could be a fun
space movie or Marvel's version of Green Lantern.
Nov 2 2018: Inhumans
Excitement
Level: 4/5
Oh,
man. This could be really good or just really bad. I have been a fan
of the Inhumans since that terrible FF cartoon when I was in junior
high. This is a team that could have benefited from a series because
there is so much history to them. The first five minutes of this film
needs to be the best animated tale of them before a single actor is
seen to explain what the fuck they are and why they haven't been
seen. The joy of seeing a live action Black Bolt alone bumps this up
one full point.
May 4 2018: Avengers: Infinity War Part I/May 3 2019: Avengers: Infinity War Part II
Excitement
Level: 5/5
To me these films are gonna have to be the big blow
off to everything else these previous movies have done. You can't
have the Infinity Gems involved and not have every single character
that has been in these Marvel films show up and just wreck shit.
There should be worldwide damage, deaths, and introductions of
whoever else is getting a movie next. Half this movie should look
like the beginning of Saving Private Ryan and the other half
Guardians Of The Galaxy.
