What's Next For The Marvel Movies

 

 

 

More Marvel Movies

As you know from the post on about Marvel's Guardians Of The Galaxy the Marvel movies are amazing! Today big news came from Marvel! I was watching the #MarvelEvent hashtag and they released their movie titles and film release dates for the next five years!

If you missed the big announcement, here's the lowdown

MARVEL STUDIOS UNVEILS PHASE 3 OF MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE

This morning, during a special event at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige revealed the films that will make up Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, featuring a mix of fan-favorite characters and several heroes who will be making their big-screen debuts.

The next two films to be released by Marvel are AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON on May 1, 2015, and ANT-MAN on July 17, 2015. Marvel revealed the dates and titles of nine additional films through 2019, including upcoming Captain America, Thor, Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy installments, along with films featuring Black Panther – who, Feige announced, will be played by Chadwick Boseman – Captain Marvel, Doctor Strange, and the Inhumans.

The announced films are as follows:

· 5/1/15 – AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON

· 7/17/15 – ANT-MAN

· 5/6/16 – CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR

· 11/4/16 – DOCTOR STRANGE

· 5/5/17 – GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY 2 (previously dated 7/28/17)

· 7/28/17 – THOR: RAGNAROK

· 11/3/17 – BLACK PANTHER

· 7/6/18 – CAPTAIN MARVEL

· 11/2/18 – INHUMANS

· 5/3/19 – AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR PART II

Ten films have already been released in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, beginning with 2008’s IRON MAN. All 10 films opened at #1 domestically and have collectively grossed over $7.1 billion globally.

Two of these films, MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS and IRON MAN 3, set records as the #1 and #2 domestic openings of all time with $207.4 million and $174.1 million respectively. MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS went on to become the third biggest film of all time worldwide, while Marvel’s IRON MAN 3 ranks as the sixth biggest film ever. They are the two highest grossing Super Hero films of all time.

Earlier this year, Marvel’s CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER, which broke the April opening domestic record with $95 million, earned $714 million worldwide and is the #5 film of 2014. Most recently, Marvel’s GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY crossed $757 million globally after opening with a domestic August record of $94.3 million and setting an October debut record in China, where it has now grossed nearly $90 million. It’s the #1 film of the year domestically and the #3 film worldwide.

I am sure you can tell by the video that IRON MAN is my favorite Marvel Super Hero, but I really do love all the characters!

 

I even have a favourite villain and no it is not Thanos.

It happens to be Loki.

Marvel - Avengers Age Of Ultron : What You Need To Know

Moving Through The Marvel Timeline

Last week we had to opportunity to attend the advanced screening of the new MARVEL film
AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON
at the Scotiabank Theatre in Toronto thanks to our friends at Walt Disney Studios / Marvel Canada. Being that Diane is new to the Marvel movies, with Guardians of the Galaxy being the first Marvel movie she went to see, I needed to give her the background on all the previous movies that involved the characters known as The Avengers.

My hour long synopsis went from the first Iron Man movie to the most recent Captain America: The Winter Solider and include tidbits about Marvel's Agents of S.H.E.I.L.D. and Agent Carter.

It was a good thing I covered all the bases as a bit of everything was touched on in this film.

What You Will Love About Avengers: Age Of Ultron

This is a 3D film and from the moment it begins you feel like you are in the middle of an action packed video game. With explosions and stunt driving throughout the film you are sure to feel surrounded by the cinematic experience.

I was also having an 80s fan girl experience knowing that LESS THAN ZERO actors Robert Downey Jr. and James Spader were once again reunited to make this film.

First Ultron sighting yesterday. #AgeOfUltron #PressTour #Avengerpalooza pic.twitter.com/OuQwxWIFQ9

— Robert Downey Jr (@RobertDowneyJr) April 12, 2015

This is one of the scenes I enjoyed most, which while it's not an action scene, it is very memorable. I love the quick quips and sarcastic banter that is part of these films.

What Is New About This Film

While the previous films were very story driven, the stories take a bit of a back seat to the action scenes.  There are great plot lines in the film, but they are more about the team working out there issues.

A Few Surprises In The Mix

No spoilers here, but there are a few things that will catch you off guard. 

• You will be able to see how The Avengers and Guardians Of The Galaxy franchaises may come together in future Marvel Films.   
• J.A.R.V.I.S. plays a bigger role with the team as apposed to just being a part of the IRON MAN movies
• There is more that meets the "Hawkeye"

We think this movie will be great for the tween to teen audience when it comes a family night out at the movies!

STORY SYNOPSIS:

Marvel Studios presents “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” the epic follow-up to the biggest Super Hero movie of all time. When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As the villainous Ultron emerges, it is up to The Avengers to stop him from enacting his terrible plans, and soon uneasy alliances and unexpected action pave the way for an epic and unique global adventure.

 

 

 

 

Guardians of the Galaxy - Grabbing Our Spot At Galaxy Cinema Waterloo

Wednesday night we had the opportunity to attend the screening of the new Marvel film Guardians of The Galaxy thanks to Walt Disney Studios.  Where would be the best place to see it in Kitchener-Waterloo? Galaxy Cinemas of course!

Makings of the new Marvel Franchise

I am a long time fan of the Marvel Movies! I'm talking XMEN, Spiderman with Toby McGuire,  and even Daredevil (yes I know many didn't see Ben Afleck as the superhero, but I enjoyed the film).  When Marvel upped their game and began Marvel Studios the Marvel Universe became open territory for all of their comics to come to the big screen.  This included the lesser known heroes the Guardians of the Galaxy.

The Time For Action

I have been a long time action film fan, but this is a genre Diane is new to.  Earlier in the year we went to Need For Speed and with that she was able to see why I have a fondness for the "over the top-ness" of action films.  Now that she was being introduced to Marvel it gave her a taste of what happens when action meets superpowers.  I had let her know how Marvel tends to link their films


and that a few past characters will pop up in this film (click here for the spoiler). I also let her know with Marvel movies you need to stay after the credits for a teaser of their next film.

Post by Marvel Canada.

Guardians of the Galaxy Is A GO!

We mean it! Go see this funny, futuristic and full of action film!

Post by Guardians of the Galaxy.

Need more reason to see it? They reference KEVIN BACON in the movie!

 *Warning there is a bit of Foul language, but I believe it wouldn't be anything your tween or teen has not heard before. 
We really enjoyed the movie and we waited for the post credit sceen and...... nothing.
While I was bewildered by this Diane pointed out that I was not the only one, as more than half of the theartre stayed as well.
Of course I had to get to the bottom of this and on this post it is explained that the premieres did not have the post credits sceen but there is one (with the spolier of it).

What More Could There Be?

While we thought it was great to be watching Guardians of the Galaxy @ Galaxy Cinemas our friend Wendy of the Mapsgirl Blog was at the Toronto screening and David Bautista, who plays DRAX in the movie made an appearance!

Post by Marvel Canada.

She even got a selfie with him!

Size Matters! Marvel's #ANTMAN Will Ensure You Know #ItsAllConnected

The Tiny Hero Comes To The Big Screen

The next evolution of the Marvel Cinematic Universe brings a founding member of The Avengers to the big screen for the first time with Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man.” Armed with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, master thief Scott Lang must embrace his inner hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym, protect the secret behind his spectacular Ant-Man suit from a new generation of towering threats. Against seemingly insurmountable obstacles, Pym and Lang must plan and pull off a heist that will save the world.

Marvel’s “Ant-Man” stars Paul Rudd as Scott Lang aka Ant-Man, Evangeline Lilly as Hope van Dyne, Corey Stoll as Darren Cross aka Yellowjacket, Bobby Cannavale as Paxton, Michael Peña as Luis, Tip “T.I.” Harris as Dave, Wood Harris as Gale, Judy Greer as Maggie, David Dastmalchian as Kurt, and Michael Douglas as Dr. Hank Pym. Directed by Peyton Reed and produced by Kevin Feige, p.g.a., Marvel’s “Ant-Man” delivers a high-stakes, tension-filled adventure on July 17, 2015.

 

 

ANT-MAN Will Ensure You Know #ItsAllConnected

From the moment the movie begins you know what Marvel means when they say #ItsAllConnected.  For those who are fans of the Marvel Movies and Marvel Television Shows you can see how they continously link the storylines together.  I don't want to give to much away, as I think the less you know about the film, the more you will enjoy it, but Marvel fans will be happy with the way this movie comes together.

 

What I Liked Most About ANT-MAN

I think ANT-MAN is reminiscent of the first Iron Man film in many ways.  It's about a man who goes through a serious life change to begin on his journey.  There's a lot of funny scenes a bit of romance and detailed scenes with the villan.  How it was different is that unlike Tony Stark, Scott Lang is not a millionaire playboy, instead he is crook wanting to change his ways.

 

As A Marvel Fan You Know To

1. Look for S.H.I.E.L.D Easter Eggs
2. Watch for the STAN LEE Cameo
3. Stay in your seat when the credits start rolling

Another perk of seeing ANT-MAN in 3D is getting to see the Star Wars - The Force Awakens trailer in 3D too!

 

One more thing, keep in mind #BaskinRobbinsAlwaysFindsOut
