Re: OT: Avengers: Endgame
The only big bad that can match Thanos (without the Gauntlet) is Dark Phoenix. Doom and Kang are great choices as well. But Dark Phoenix is stronger than both of them. It's a shame Fox could never get Dark Phoenix right. Galactus is more of an entity who is part of the universe. He's not a true villian but rather part of the universe itself. He's the equivalent of Unicron in Transformers. The next phase of Avenger movies should be Dr. Doom, then Kang, then ending the trilogy with Dark Phoenix (done right this time).

Thanos with the gauntlet is as real of a threat as you can get IMO
Is he, though?
I'm pretty sure Galactus could sh*tstomp Thanos even with the gauntlet. And the Molecule Man, Beyonders, Celestials should all be more powerful than him. Plus, Dr. Doom has had several comics where he's power leveled to beyond Thanos level. Isn't Dormamu stronger too? Plus, Mad Jim Jaspers if you count him, Dark Phoenix should be stronger too
I think Thanos is the strongest threat that's not really, existential in nature like Galactus or Dormamu, or the Marquis of Death
In the comic, Thanos took on All the cosmic entities at the same time. Galactus, Order & Chaos, The Tribunal. No one could stand against him but, himself and his own inattention. It allowed ...damn, whats Gamora's sisters name? to steal take the gauntlet for herself.
Nebula...
who is in the new endgame trailer as one of the survivors interested in seeing how much they refer to the infinty gauntlet comic in the story

Dark Phoenix is not more powerful than Chaos, Order or the Tribunal, Aspects just like herself. Thanos took them all out.

Well technically any bad on Skyfather level or above can match him without the gems. more besides just dark Phoenix. Doom and Kang are formidable not because of power but more for their Intelligence , cunning. and resources. But neither of those 2 are as cunning or as smart as Thanos.

Trbunal has always been depicted above Dark Phoenix.

does anyone know if the rumor is true that Wolverine comes at the end scene or was that just misinformation?

Anything is possible....but I'd bet my house we don't see him in this. Not only has Jackman said he's done with the role, I would have to think they shot everything before the merger was actually official. The bigger question is who will be tapped to play Wolverine in the future?!

pretty sure thats misinformation since they are casting for a new Wolverine and X-men likely won't be rolled over into the MCU until "after" dark Phoenix. Otherwise, they would need to explain which x-men died in the snap which, I do not believe the movie will touch in any way.

Zac Efron will be the next Wolverine:

In all seriousness, I was joking, but I don't know if there is any truth or not in that. I like Hugh Jackman, but this time, I hope they cast a proper Wolverine that matches his true comicbook height. Somewhere between 5' 3" and 5' 7" imo. It just looks better and we could see him being the agile little guy.
It'd be funny if they were to do Tom Hardy, lol.
I think Christain Bale would have been awesome. Maybe Russell Crowe. But I think they are too big. I'd like to get a lesser known actor.
Doing some research, I just found out that Mel Gibson almost played the Wolverine in the 90s. Look at this concept art, I think it looks pretty cool. And would love to see something like this in a Wolverine Reboot:

The shawarma scene after credit in the first Avengers was shot 4 days before the movie released so maybe they are adding an X-men related scene as we speak. Agreed about Jackman though.

Re: OT: Avengers: Endgame
ok - so piecing everything together from the trailers and using widow's hair as the timeline and compiling some thoughts from message boards over the past few months, here's a theory of how this movie may go down. THESE ARE NOT SPOILERS - THEY ARE JUST THEORIES. i will put them in spoiler tags too just in case:

Re: OT: Avengers: Endgame
My theory is they're setting up Galactus for the next phase. Part of the reason Thanos wiped out 50% of life in the universe was in part to wipe out 50% of natural resources for every planet. He did this in order to stop Galactus since he feeds off of planets and their resources. If 50% gets wiped out, it'll make every planet less desirable for Galactus to absorb. This is what I think he meant when he said hes ''cursed with knowledge''. Just a theory

his reasoning in infinity war was to have enough natural resources for everyone tho.

yup, I think your reaching with the Galactus theory. I would be surprised to see the Big G until the FF is re-established since he's really part of their Rogues gallery. Even though Galactus has popped up elsewhere, he is still kind of synonymous with the FF.
