Dark Avengers, New Avengers and Young avengers

We'll have to see what characters they actually get for these rosters first, assuming these three movies are happening. Also, it might depend on how they stagger them.

For instance, they might do a Dark Avengers for one movie. That movie might end with some heroes taking down their evil counterparts, which sets up New Avengers movie where they fight some other threat. In New Avengers, they might introduce some of the younger heroes and at the end, decide to pass the mantle on to them when some of the heroes die or retire. Then you have a Young Avengers movie.

At 60, I grew up with the original Avengers, DD, Luke Cage, Punisher, Spiderman, etc. I think most boomers my age went to see these movies for that reason.

As they start to introduce newer characters -- ones that boomers aren't familiar with as we gave up the comics decades ago -- I'm curious to know if these movies will continue to do as well as they have done.

Even now I only go to see every second movie at the cinema. I def don't see me going to see movies about characters I don't know. if I'm representative of boomers then these movies won't hit the heights that they have in the past.

Honestly, I'm down for whatever Marvel Studios throws at me. It'll be off seeing three different versions of similar characters, but their abilities I feel like is where the similarities would end. Isn't the Iron Patriot in the Dark Avengers Norman Osborne? Not only that, but I think Spider-Man would take the place of the Iron Man stand-in in a Young Avengers film. Plus, Thor may have named Valkyrie king of Asgard, but he still seems like he's going to play a part in at least a couple movies going forward.
