Ohhhh [frick]!!! I'm glad he's still having a part in a Phase 3 movie. Just having him as a tree and saying 3 words is a waste of talent, but everything is working out.

"I'm pretty sure he's referring to Groot returning in Avengers 3! lol"

Doubt. He said the Movie he was talking about if for 2016, I' pretty sure Avengers 3 won't come out a year later after A2.

@MrCBM56

I posted that comment before I watched the video bro! lol But yeah when I heard "merging of brands" I thought different studios you know? Now I'm like what the heck is Vin hinting at? He said it was wayyyyy down the line though so what do you think man?? Is it even possible for Vin to play a different character with a voice like his??
cosmicman
cosmicman - 9/5/2013, 4:44 PM
merging of Marvel with Cosmic maybe?
MrCBM56

BlackMan

Yeah, that Merging of Brands thing really got me thinking. At first thought, I did think of a different studios crossover movie, but who knows? We are 3 years away from 2016, he probably over exaggerated the WAYYY down the line thing to get off that specific movie, but I don't know. Hopefully we find out soon. I hate the suspicion...I need to know know!!

"merging of brands... guardians are in the avengers 3 when the thanos threat comes to earth

For the last time, Vin said the movie comes out in 2016. Avengers 3 will not be out a year right after A2.

Either Silver Surfer or Black Bolt. I just say Silver surfer because I've been hoping for that movie and it sounds like they're merging the brands but he is not who I would choose to play Norrin Radd.
Black Bolt, sure. I think he'd do great.
sansClaymore
sansClaymore - 9/5/2013, 4:57 PM
he said he was talking "way way way" down the line when does he say 2016?
sansClaymore
sansClaymore - 9/5/2013, 4:58 PM
might as well say hes going to be ben grimm and they are merging F4 with the avengers

Like 5 minutes or something before the end, he said that he was originally part of a movie due for a 2016 release date.

sansClaymore - 9/5/2013, 5:01 PM
ahhh i see

so they negotiated to get him into something sooner and still break a deal for a later film.... sweet

he only talks for 5 minutes. at the skip to the 50-minute mark.

So far as we know these are our phase 3 assumptions...

Ant-Man
Thor 3
Doctor Strange
Black Panther
Captain America 3
Avengers 3

Even though some of these films and order I mentioned may be false what 2016 movie do you guys think he's talking about??

@MrCBM56

Lol at the gif, and totally agreed man! I guess we'll have to wait and see!

@Praetorian

But since Silver Surfer is most likely tied to Galactus and Galactus is most likely tied to Fox I don't think we'll see that happen. However I do hink he may be speaking of either mo-cap or voice acting.

StatenMan18 - 9/5/2013, 5:11 PM
I heard a sort of legit rumor that a solo hulk movie is coming after avengers 2 which if you think about it would make sense, and I just think doctor strange has to eventually come in this mix.
, and daredevil too now that marvel has him back. But it would be awesome to see silver surfer in his own movie but idk if vin diesel is the guy for that, although I do love his work.

Has Mavel even confirmed his involvement in GotG yet? The only confirmations we are getting are from Vin himself.

Starring role in Saving Private Ryan? REALLY?
He gets shot by a sniper. He probably has five minutes of screen time.

He says something along the lines of it "is merging of brands, in a way." I don't think he means brands in terms of the different studios. To me, this sounds more along the lines of the Avengers characters tying into GotG. Maybe something like the Hulk finally getting his out of this world adventure, or perhaps (if GotG doesn't take place in the future) the team meeting up with the Avengers to battle Thanos.
