Which actor will suit thanos in the avengers 2 movie??
Kazenji
Most likely whoever that was portraying him at the end of Avengers 1.
Flyattractor
I would assume Thanny will be all CGI like the Hulk was so it would be a voice over actor guy.
Kazenji
What was the joke?

No need for CGI. Thanos is just a bit bigger than Thor, so there's no need to scale him up to Hulk-size.
Hard to say who should play him, since the actor will be under so much makeup & costuming. They should be big, but if they get an undersized actor they can scale him up in subtle ways; ex. Tom Hardy as Bane.
The voice is what will matter. Would they pull a George Lucas and get one actor for the body, while another does the voice? Darth Vader & Darth Maul shows it can work.

Isn't Thanos built like a brick? 7+ feet tall and 6 foot wide, massive hands etc? I do hope they go full CGI.

That's the guy who played Thanos, Damion Poitier. He's Sidney Poitier's nephew I think.
I've got a friend whose writing a book for Marvel and they've met a couple times. If he's got the right voice(which I think he does), they can just do the mocap like they did with Hulk. Because Thanos is ****ing huge, not quite Hulk size, but still really really big.

Thanos wasn't CGI. It was prosthetics.
marwash22
Clancy Brown.
Christopher Judge.
Dennis Haysbert.
dunno if he's capable of drama, but Brad Garrett (Everbody Loves Raymond) has both the size and the voice for it.
Patrick Warburton also has the voice, but i dunno if he's capable of drama.

Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman or Samuel L. Jackson should play Thanos.

Blaxican is just trolling now with this s***.
When he was alive, Michael Clarke Duncan was tailor-made to play Apocalypse, rather than Thanos. But, it's all moot now.

Most likely be Damion Poitier since that's who portrayed him at the end of the first Avengers movie.

I can't really argue ur point, lol, Thanos is a pretty epic character and it'll take some solid performance to bring out his sadistic charm. While White lack acting range, he does have that cool/confident air about him, which is what Thanos is (to me anyway).
While we're on the subject of bad actors playing Thanos, lol, i can also see Vin Diesel doing well. This scene from "Knock Around Guy" is something i can see Thanos delivering before physically wrecking up shop lol.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0x3-d7_GxNk
I'm very curious whether they will give him that Shakespearean persona similar to the silver surfer cartoon. I always view him as having a gravel voice lol.

1) Damion Poitier IS black, and he portrayed Thanos in "Avengers."
2) I always imagined him with a deep, menacing voice, and I feel like some of these choices, and some of my choices like Ron Perlman and Clancy Brown, are far too used for Thanos. I want a new voice. Michael Ironside already did Darkseid, but maybe lend in Michael Leon Wooley's talents. He did Darkseid on BatB, but I feel like his voice range could be lightened up for a more Thanos-esque voice.

Well considering the fact that Marvel made the Mandarin a lie and Pym doesn't exist so far, I guess it was a possibility for that to be Ultron's new origin.
BruceSkywalker
Can't wait to hear Vin Diesel as Ultron...

Yep. Plus IM3 seemed to indicate it with Jarvis controlling all those armors and Stark destroying all his suits at the end. Furthermore, the AoU teaser they showed at Comic-con apparently had Iron Man's helmet morph into Ultron's.

Whedon said there's no Pym included. So if the guy who invented Ultron originally isn't there, it makes sense the only guy with access to hyper advanced AI tech would be the one to create him this time around.

still doesn't mean that Pym won't be in Age of Ultron.. im just simply not jumping the gun like you guys are.. Whedon could be just putting this out there to get people too think on how he is going to write it ..
KingD19
He straight up said Pym wouldn't be involved. He said they're taking bits and pieces of the Ultron origin story and reworking it.
It's not jumping a gun to listen to a confirmation from the director of the movie.
And why do you think they'd put Pym in a movie when he hasn't even been introduced in his own movie yet?

who cares what he said.. Its a known fact that Whedon has lied about things... Makes no sense for him to tell the world that Stark creates Ultron, especially since he hasn't even started filming.. I find that very very suspicious.. thats why I am not jumping the gun here,, movies studios, actors/actresses, directors put things out there to get people started talking about it.. Prime example Didn't Chris Nolan say he was done with anymore involvement regarding Superman and Batman???
For the same exact reason WB is doing for the new Batman.. by putting the new Batman in a team up film with Superman, the fans will decide whether or not WB will move forward with his own film..
same applies here with Antman , Marvel could be giving us a glimpse of what is to come with Pym

I hope Vin does have a big role to play in The Avengers and he nails it. That'll just give him more star power for the Riddick sequels. And that's really all that matters.

One of the latest rumors going around is that Stark inadvertantly creates Ultron. Jarvis turns into him or some sh*t. Marvel might pull another mandarin on us

Am I the only one who hasn't read any comics, and just enjoys these films on their own merit? How successful (or disastrous) would various superhero films be if they didn't have the comic predecessor to fall back on?
What if Man of Steel was just it's standalone film, with no Superman influence of pop culture. If Man of Steel was just about an alien who came to Earth, and then decided to save it from other aliens who wanted to kill everyone, and fell in love with a news reporter, would it have been enjoyed/despised more?
Same for the recent Marvel franchise. Would they have been more successful or disastrous if they didn't have the iconic Marvel world to fall back on? Same goes for the Nolan Batman trilogy, and even older films such as Fantastic Four, Elektra, Daredevil, and the Raimi Spiderman trilogy.
