Moviegoers may never seen an ensemble as big or impressive as what Marvel Studios has spent a decade plus building towards. Beginning this summer with Avengers: Infinity War is what will be the end of the Marvel Cinematic Universe as we know it, to be capped off with part two (the untitled Avengers 4) in 2019. After that, who knows, especially with Disney acquiring Fox and its movie IP (which includes Fantastic Four and the X-Men).

We’ve seen Avengers: Infinity War teaser trailer and while we share concerns over the idea of Avengers battling more faceless, nameless CGI drones (the 6-legged, unarmed, attackers in Wakanda) the idea of all Marvel heroes coming together to fight their greatest villain Thanos (who they still need to prove is their greatest villain) is potentially the most epic thing we’ll see all year.
