A while back DC made an announcement of seven movies in the next few years and bumped off Man of Steel 2 all the way to 2018. (DC upped the ante up to 2020 where they'll release a Cyborg solo movie) Well, seems like Marvel is following in DC's footsteps.
We know that Marvel's "phase 2" would end with Antman and Avengers 2. Both coming in 2015 (Avengers in May and Antman in July)
Phase 3:
-Captain America 3: Civil War: May 6, 2016
-Doctor Strange: November 4, 2016
-Guardians of the Galaxy 2: May 5, 2017
-Thor 3: Ragnarok: July 28, 2017
-Black Panther: November 3, 2017
-Captain Marvel: July 6, 2018
-Inhumans: November 2, 2018
-Avengers: Infinity War, Part 1: May 4, 2018
-Avengers: Infinity War, Part 2: May 3, 2019
Ok, so Cap 3, Thor 3, Guardians of the Galaxy 2 are kind of expected sequel as the past movies in the respective series did well... (still a bit puzzled with Thor 2 doing well, since many found it a bit boring)
The Surprises are: DOCTOR STRANGE (so far Benedict Cumberbatch seems to be THE chosen one... At least it's not Daniel Radcliffe) which is interesting since this movie should be trippy as hell with all the magic and stuff. I'm guessing Strange, Mordo, maybe a nod to Dormammu, but no Shuma Gorath.
Black Panther is another pleasant surprise that may shut up some social justice warriors. If Captain Marvel is the recent Carol Danvers version (Formerly Ms. Marvel) then the Social Justice Warriors can shut up again... Until they Realize that Ms. Marvel is white and blonde. Supposedly, Black Panther will be on Civil War.
The one that I'm a bit cautious about is Inhumans.
The biggest bomb is Avengers 3. AKA Avengers: Infinity War... That means one thing: Infinity Gems. When those are involved, the Teaser we got with the First Avengers movie makes More sense... FREAKING THANOS!!
What scares me of this bit of news is: 11 movies in the next 5 years. If we add the 7+ DC movies and the other Marvel Movies that are trapped with other studios like Spider-Douche, X-Men or the Not So Fantastic Four we are going to have an oversaturation of the Superhero movies and many will suffer casualties. So I'm a bit nervous about this bit of news as I am excited. This is so serious that I'm not even going to reuse the Nervouscited clip.
Then we have movies from indie comics like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which add to the already bloated mess from the Big Two. If Todd McF ever gets his Spawn reboot off the ground, he'd better wait until way after 2020 to release it. Personally, I don't think I could watch ALL of these (both marvel and dc movies) at the theaters, so there might be a few casualties from my side from the start.
