I also saw Inhumans was slated for Nov 2018.
Great casting has been Marvel's ace. Compared to DC, which is fielding miscasts and actors/actresses who can't act. Rumor has Katee Sackhoff, a safe pick. Pipe dreams is Jessica Chastain (who once criticized Marvel for not making a female solo movie, or at least a Black Widow film), Charlize Theron, Yvonne Strahovski, or Natalie Dorner.
A Black Panther movie has been rumored for at least the last 12 years. At the time, I thought the only actor who could pull it off was Wesley Snipes who had the star power, screen presence and physicality required to headline a movie like that. Now that he's too old and no longer relevant along comes Chadwick Boseman who possesses the star power, screen presence and physicality required to headline a movie like that. _________________ "Suck it up.

Idris Elba would have been a good choice too. But he's Heimdall now
The law of diminishing returns will probably kick in at some point. Not yet feeling the MCU fatique though, it's still interesting enough for me to sit through that fanboi's solid breakdown of the announcements.
Isn't anyone tired of these movies yet? Just feels like the well is running dry.
Have you looked at the lineup they just announced? Look at all these brand new characters to the cinematic universe:
Black Panther
Doctor Strange
Captain Marvel
Inhumans
not to mention the other plots and spinoffs. It's fresh because we've never seen an orchestrated movie universe like this before spanning 10+ IPs, over 10+ years, on TV networks and in theaters.

I think the lack of creativity in Hollywood and the rising ticket prices have created a marketplace that Marvel is dominating, a true blockbuster series that you dont mind paying to see on the big screen.
Are plot lines predictable and for most part repeated, sure, but you go to these movies for the over the top action and relive part of your youth when you read about these heroes in the comics.
Marvel has done a great job at casting and has blown DC away thus far, DC seems to have mastered the TV part with the FLash and Green Arrow maybe they should stick with it and not try to match Marvel on the big screen
For some reason, there was an Ultron trailer on the front page of YouTube (a couple hours old)...I got excited, and thought it was a new one, but it was pretty much the same one as before.

Remarkable likenesses except for Black Widow. We all know ScarJo is thicker than that. Heh, heh. _________________ "Suck it up. Don't be a baby. Do your job." - Kobe Bryant
Hopefully we get a look at Vision in this one. Gonna be a crazy year for movies. _________________ "Dread it, run from it... destiny arrives all the same."

Didn't really see too much in the second trailer that wasn't in the first. A few more seconds of Hulkbuster vs Hulk and Nick Fury with hair was all I really noticed. _________________ "Suck it up. Don't be a baby. Do your job." - Kobe Bryant
