Avengers 5: Doomsday - Page 7

The truth is that there have only been two Avengers movies. "Avengers" and "Avengers: Age of Ultron".

The rest have been "Marvel Universe" flicks.

And there's really only been 1 (maayyybe 1 and a half if we're being generous) Captain America movies.

I'd say that "Winter Soldier" was a full-on Captain America movie. Black Widow fits into that world and basically every other character in that movie was firmly seated in a "Captain America vehicle".

Obviously Civil War was in many ways "Avengers 2.5".

By comparison to Civil War, of course. But as cool as Winter Soldier was and as well told that story was, it really didn't do much of anything with Steve as a character or a person. It was Event Mode the whole time.

Steve only really gets five minutes of 'slice of life' in WS and CW. The rest of the time he's in Captain America mode

There was a brief behind-the-scenes falling out between two of the actors, to the point they were wiling to film scenes where they interact separate from one another, but it all got resolved peacefully

For some reason I can't help but feel that Pascal ran his weirdo-mouth in "too much familiarity" with Ruffalo, and it went through Ruffalo's weirdo-brain and he was "offended".

Obviously I have no idea if that's the two people but it's an immediate personality fit.

*Andrew NDB* · 08-20-2025, 10:59 AM

It's a short list of people who could get offended like that loudly in a production of this magnitude.

*Andrew NDB* · 11-27-2025, 04:06 AM

C'mon, Simu...

*ranger_scout* · 12-15-2025, 09:14 AM

Guess who's back?

How much can this movie make?
With returning characters including foxmen, huge marketing since Disney knows everything depends on this movie doing well. I think tis going to struggle to even reach a billion.

*IMJ* · 12-15-2025, 11:43 AM

Nah, it will make money, but it won't be on the authenticity of the movie. People will pay simply to finally see these characters on-screen together and to find out what nonsense they are pulling with Iron Man.

This is an instance where it won't matter that it's littered with a forced-woke cast, or characters that people haven't cared about for going on 7 years now.

And then guys like Feige will suddenly come crawling out of the woodwork again to go on about how well they "celebrated the world" with their comic book movie and it will get run into the ground all over again.

Evidence before (movies with HUGE diminishing returns and audience rejecting since Endgame). Spike in the middle (Doomsday). Abandonment after, unless maybe they reboot the entire thing.

I keep finding AI fakes. Where's the actual trailer. There's rumors that Chris Evans is back?

*Andrew NDB* · 12-15-2025, 04:33 PM

It's not a very exciting trailer. It's just Evans arriving on a motorcycle, going inside his house with Peggy, looking at his Captain America costume, holding his baby, then it says "Steve Rogers will return in Avengers: Doomsday." Nobody else is in the trailer.

To be honest, that's pretty much all you need.

*ToTheNines* · 12-15-2025, 04:50 PM

Awful.

Not only are they just crapping on all these endings we got in Endgame (that were all great and should be permanent), but they’re just throwing all of this together with zero buildup. What is going on over there?

Permanent? They never even should have happened to begin with. The MCU was finally growing into cohesion by about the time of Infinity War... we didn't need an "ending" for all these characters.

*ToTheNines* · 12-15-2025, 05:34 PM

In a perfect world where the movies could more closely reflect the comics, sure.

But knowing that these actors don’t want these roles forever and the studio has an aversion to recasting, I thought they did a great job with Endgame as a finale.

Again, perfect world scenario would have had Steve around for all of phase 5-6. Instead he’s just gonna show up in Doomsday with zero buildup. I’ll still see it probably, but damn.

Marvel just officially confirmed Chris Evans is back as Captain America.
