Nah.

They’ll obviously win; the result of the entire series is not going to be the annihilation of all humankind.

But there might be a cost. Main characters might die. And therein lies the dramatic tension.
No, they won't.

Because then they're not in the sequel and they can't sell action figures of them.

Happy to take a bet that not every hero survives.

*pours one out for Quicksilver*
Quicksilver was an extended cameo, not a hero.
They can kill Black Panther. He’s shit.

And that telepathic woman. She’s shit an’ all.
They are definitely going to kill off someone.

Also at some point Iron Man is going to put an infinity stone in his chest hole.

We'll see a couple of the Avengers retire, and I think Tony is going to give up active service, but take over from Nick Fury. At the end of the movie, there will be a new lineup. Including Spider-Man.

Also I think some of the villains sucked into infinity stones will come back (Ronan, Red Skull or that dark elf from Thor 2).
Let's not forget that it's all multiverse anyway any pretty much all of them have form for dying then coming back by various means.

Black Panther trailer looks ace though.
Massive racist satsuma
I reckon either Iron Man or Cap are going to bite it. And Widow, because I fancy her and it'd be just fucking typical.

Things aren't going to end well for Vision either, considering he has an infinity stone in his head.

Could be that the ultron personality takes over. Or maybe Wanda is doing some magic to keep him stable.

Black Panther.
So he can't be shit because he's black?

Think about the bigger picture. Black Panther is really fucking important as the first non-white protagonist in his own movie in the MCU (we haven't had a woman yet, something that even DC had managed, and look at the reaction to WW from women and girls).

Calling him shit from 10 mins screen time in Civil War is a bit galling to all those black kids who are Marvel fans who want a superhero who looks just like them. We don't ever have to think about that as being a white male is the default setting when it comes to the media we consume and always had been.

Plus the film is directed by and stars mainly black people, who are often overlooked for the top jobs in Hollywood. I can't wait, personally, and hope it's a big success.

So do I. But people are allowed to not like it without being racists, for fuck's sake.

Oh yeah, sorry. I didn't realise Ian has a time machine and had watched it already. :)
Sweet, maybe I can borrow it and skip December.
I like Black Panther's suit and everything, but he does come off as a massive twat in Civil War.
I think the Black Panther movie is going to be amazing, and I'm really happy for black kids (and adults) that they get to have a massive blockbuster superhero movie finally. It's really cool that it's a black director, writers and most of the cast. It's great to have a black story being told on this scale that isn't another black struggle tearjerker, but an action packed afrofuturist superhero movie.

I bet it's going to sell a lot of tickets too. It'll bring the regular marvel audience out, but every black nerd and lots of non-nerds are going to come out for it. Especially with it being the lead in to Avengers 3.
It'll have to do until "Starring Idris Elba... As Blade" appears on the screen.

Yeah, that’s exactly what I was doing when I posted. SMH.

Fact is: he’s boring.

If he becomes awesome, likeable and has a decent sense of humour in his own movie I’ll change my mind. Also, we’ll go on a date cause that’s what I’m looking for in a man. ;)

oh SHIT son
Snipes says he wants to return as Blade, and that he has spoke to Marvel, but I don't think that's likely.

Blade might be a better fit to a Netflix show imo. He fits in more with Daredevil and The Punisher than the movie crew.

Oh, I forgot how all super hero protagonists are immediately well rounded people when introduced, thus negating a need for a journey of character development and self-reflection. ;)
Oh God, I thought it was just the "racist" joke because it had the word "black" in it.

Fuck you!
Not seen that, although I did see Meteor Man when I was a kid.

How many times can you use the word black??

I don't think there's an upper limit. In this case it's six (did you have trouble counting?) but I'm sure it's been used a lot more than that before.
BLACK!

YOU LOCK ME IN THE CELLAR AND FEED ME PINS!

Pretty sure they even used it on the cover of every issue of Black Panther.
Isn't black panther a tautology anyway? If a panther isn't black then it's a leopard/jaguar/whatever. Panther being a melanistic big cat. He should be the Perfectly Normal Panther. Or Melanistic Jaguar.

Or they should have got Mos Def in and called it Def Leopard.
I'm looking forward to Andy Serkis as Ulysses Klaue, btw.

Just cos he looked like he was having fun in Age of Ultron.

(I thought it was a shame we didn't get more "Loki as Odin" in Ragnarok because it looked like Sir Anthony was having a blast.)

Panther != leopard

Can't embed as it's too large!

2 things:

1. I seriously doubt that all of those people were together at the same time

and

2. Evangeline Lilly looks awful :(
Cool that they invited Joss Whedon even though they've otherwise parted ways.

Edit: Maybe some blue screen is going on, but I think they are mostly all there

She does, but I think it's primarily that haircut and those trousers.

This guy?
Is that Vin Diesel? What’s he in?
This is an appropriate time to announce my upcoming appearance as Doctor Druid in the next Doctor Strange movie.
