    That's the question for this film, but after Civil War and listening to Russo brothers how they tackled this problem in that one, I would say there is a decent chance it will work well enough. One thing that they mentioned is that when they're working on the script they do their best for every character to have at least one scene where they can shine. No matter how little popular these heroes are, they do have some fans who would be otherwise disappointed if they went to a film where their favourite was just a piece of background scenery all the time. It's doable take on this problem.

    Honestly, I just want to see a sarcastic spat between Tony and Rocket.

    I remember that's what people said when the Heath Ledger Joker photos first came out, and look how that turned out to be.

    There were rumours of $1B budged for both films, but that is an absurd amount of money. Most likely it's half of that ($500m) with half of that half ($250m) going to actors with RDJ taking half of that half ($125m). ;)

    I assume the 500 million chunk for each movie includes marketing and promotion.

    Most of the mid to minor players will have clauses in their franchise contracts that state they'll get paid considerably less for appearances outside their main movies, so it's probably not too obscene.

    I'm imagining 400mil max for each movie. It's pretty much guaranteed that each film will make at least twice that, so I doubt they're too worried about production costs.

    True, but I'd expect RDJ calls for a hefty price.

    Well yeah, obviously. Iron Man is not a mid/minor level player. He's the franchise head and RDJ likely got to dictate his salary from movie to movie. The other principles probably got similar deals. I'd say at least 200 mil from each movie will be divided between RDJ, Evans, Hemsworth, and Scar Jo.

    I thought infinity war was two movies?

    Or is it infinity war + avengers 4 now?

    Either way, I’m still with Sorrows on this one.

    Winter Solider gave her the most WTF hair. No idea why they thought that was flattering. I mean its still Scarlet Johansson so shes still beautiful but comparatively? Bleh.

    What I like is how they used Avengers theme for this trailer and make it epic. I was never a big fan of it, especially compared to other iconic superhero music, but over the years it did become a recognizable part of the franchise.

    Well, they're basically using all haircuts that BW has in comics though the blond version is actually taken from other woman with that codename, Yelena Belova. What I find unexpected is that in my opinion this actually is her worst hair compared to all the different films when normally blond hair work very well for Scarlett.

    For the A4 I would like them to go with this version.
