The 5 Biggest Unanswered Questions Left In The Marvel Cinematic Universe
Being a huge Marvel fan — of both the comics and the cinematic universe — I love knowing all of the details and idiosyncrasies of the characters and storylines that have been brought to us over the years. When it comes to the films in the MCU, there are many unresolved questions that fans still have, but these five queries are the ones that bother me the most and that have yet to be answered. I'm sure that in the next few movies some of these will be figured out (and more questions will be added to the list), but let's just take a peek into these ones and see if you have any theories or guesses as to their answers.

It appears that Superman isn't the only one to take on a ageing Bruce Wayne. Star Wars' Galactic Empire is the latest to take a pop at the Dark Knight...but it is all for charity!
Tom ChapmanPublished 6 years ago in Geeks5 Major Stories Fans Want in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
Captain America: Civil War marks the first movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to tackle a major Marvel storyline (albeit, slightly different than the comics), followed by the Infinity War movies to finish Phase 3. As we wait with anticipation for these iconic stories to come to the big screen, let's take a look at some other major storylines that could hit us by Phase 4 and beyond (with the current movie rights Marvel has to their characters).

When The Avengers came out in 2012, it was clear that DC had quite a ways to catch up when it came to assembling their own team in a cinematic Justice League. With Man of Steel coming out the following year, I was intrigued to see what they would do.
Zane SandersPublished 6 years ago in GeeksCould THAT Villain Be in Spider-Man: Homecoming?
There are already a ton of rumors surrounding Spider-Man: Homecoming, including Michael Keaton being eyed for the role of Vulture. As much as I can imagine that being a great choice, I was hoping we wouldn't see another guy with mechanical wings (a la Falcon). Those of you that are following me know how much I love speculating on future villains for the MCU and Spider-man, so how could I pass up another opportunity?

Dr. Leonard Samson In the comics: After creating a cathexis ray projector that would drain off gamma particle and psionic energy from Bruce Banner into a cure for Betty, most of that psionic and gamma energy that was drained from Banner stayed within the ray projector. Overcome with curiosity, and perhaps a desire to gain superhuman powers himself, Samson irradiated himself with those energies within the projector, resulting in the slim, brown-haired psychiatrist being transformed into a green-haired, muscle-laden superhuman with gamma-boosted strength.

In Marvel's upcoming Thor: Ragnarok, the third Thor movie but the first which looks like a genuinely great Marvel film, the Asgardian loses his hammer, fights Hulk in space, searches for Odin and faces off with the terrifying Hela, Goddess of Death. It looks like an adventure of truly apocalyptic proportions ("Ragnarok" is absolute destruction, after all) with potentially major consequences for the rest of the #MCU and the forthcoming Avengers: Infinity War.
Zane SandersPublished 6 years ago in GeeksNamor: 4 Ways The Sub-Mariner Could Join The MCU
A few weeks ago, I shared how Namor could already be a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. If rumors are to be believed, it seems that this is even more of a possibility. According to Marvel Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada, Namor the Sub-Mariner is making his way back home to Marvel Studios. With Namor’s TV and film rights previously belonging to Universal, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige has called this character's situation “complicated." That's putting it lightly, Mr. Feige. So, whether you chose to believe this rumor or not, there are considerable ways to tie #Namor to what is currently happening in the #MCU. But first, let's get to know the Sub-Mariner, starting with his last onscreen appearance in 1966:

I already shared my top five, but how could I just stop at just five characters I'd love to see join the MCU when there are so many more? And with Infinity War, we can expect many more to join.

Millennials were the first generation entrenched in the entertainment world, having entire television networks devoted just to us -- from Disney to Nickelodeon -- paving the way for that millennial “me” filter we've all heard so much about. And the production companies have not forgotten about us.
Zane SandersPublished 6 years ago in GeeksWhat Could Marvel's Secret Television Project Be?
I was perusing the twitter-verse when I came across a link from comicbook.com. Writer Jay Jayson said: In April, it was revealed that Oscar-winning and Emmy-nominated screenwriter/producer John Ridley (12 Years a Slave, American Crime) is developing a Marvel television project for ABC. Entertainment Weekly, the site that broke the story, only knows that it involves reinventing a hero from Marvel’s stable of characters.
