There Was A Different Idea: An MCU Producer Quest

[X] Plan: War Has No Victor

The differences between this and the other plan are mostly minor but I'm leaning more towards Gorgrath's.
 
--[X] [Post-Credit] A shot of Captain America's shield, zooming out to show it being buried in snow, surrounded by SHIELD scientists and agents.
@overmind does this movie end the same way as the original Captain America, with the Fury scene, or no? Because if so, this feels redundant.

Also, I'm just recently catching up. Is the Power Stone here the actual Power Stone? Have we decided how Nefaria got it? And what about the other stones, did we decide which one the Tesseract was?
 
I think the mid-credits scene works to hint at the possibility, without it being a total undercutting of Steve's victory. Plus, Nystical, yours has no mid-credit scene, so I think this works fine.
That's because I was explicitly waiting for other people to share their thoughts for credit scenes rather than trying to force one through. This is supposed to be collaborative after all.

Anyway, I'm fine with his mid-credit scene idea for now so I've added it to my plan post.

-[X] [Post-Credit] Yes and I have an idea for it.

This seems redundant with past credit scenes, and also probably annoys the executives for no reason.

--[X] [Mid-Credit] Nick Fury is sitting in his office when his phone starts ringing. He picks it up and asks who it is. We then cut to Agent Coulson, wearing a wooly parka, on the balcony of a SHIELD base in a snowy location, who responds and says; "Sir, you won't believe who my boys found out in the Arctic." The camera then pans downward and we see what Coulson's looking at; a frozen shield with a star on it deeply encased in ice.

Unless we can think of a really good post-credit scene, we should probably just go with what the executives want and do the Avengers teaser. No point in pissing them off however minor unless there is a legitimate reason to do it.

Yes, it ended the same way.

Yes, it's the actual Power Stone. No, we have not decided how he got it. The Tessaract was voted to be the Space Stone.
 
[x] Plan: 4th of July

Because i think the post credit scene in the other plan is redundant.
 
Question: Do we own the rights to Bob, agent of Hydra since he's mostly a Deadpool character?

Cuz if we do it'd be great to have him in Captain America 2.
 
[x] Plan: 4th of July

Guess I'll be going for this plan for now. Honestly, I kind of wish it was a reroll for Hayley instead of a +10… but I can see how that might be greedy. A natural 38 isn't a good roll, but it can be a heck of a lot worse.
 
I actually would prefer a reroll, honestly. We have decent odds of improving it, and worst case, I don't think we do any worse unless we roll a Nat 1. We'd just take the old version.

Debatable. His first appearance was in Cable and Deadpool. At best he would be shared character between Marvel and Fox.

But, I'll be nice. Give me a 1d100 with the site roller. If it's over 50 then he got added with the Deadpool rights.

Added scenes can sometimes help with Screen Presence. There's also Omakes.
 
In regards to things beyond a slight reference, let's just be patient with Namor so we can do it well, and not do anything that either contradicts prior elements or locks us into something without an actual plan of what we want to do with Namor.

Namor can wait for Phase 2.
 
[X] [Scene] Add or change a story element in the Movie.
-[X] Add a scene which begins to hint at how Niccolo got the Power Stone. Perhaps that's what he's being interrogated about primarily, and we can also show a map Red Skull has with a couple potential places the Power Stone came from?
-[X] Add another scene which lets you get into the emotional side of things a bit, and the impact Steve had. Have a memorial scene for Steve (and Bucky, depending on how close together their deaths are in the movie?), with a brief snippet of each of the Howling Commandos giving a eulogy and the longest part for Peggy, ending with a firm resolve to keep up the fight in Steve's name, and be a 'shield' for the world in his place.

@Nystical , consider adding this? I'm not sure how well the second one would fit, timing wise, but I really love the feel of it. Plus it might help specifically boost Atwell.

Added, but I tweaked the first one a bit.

Great! Yours is probably even better tbh, it clears up a question I didn't even realize I had.

Also, on a completely unrelated note, which may be totally shot down for... many reasons. How attached are we to military money and props? Because I'd kind of like to one day try to break away from the military's power over Hollywood, and make some genuinely subversive material. It seems fun, and who knows? Maybe the controversy will drive sales!

Also I just don't like the U.S. military very much, and I want to stop making them propaganda.

Yeah, i do t think we anywhere near that level yet. I dont think we actually know if Marvel is still in the red, and how much if so, beyond Marvel has been doing its absolute best to pay off its debts after the Disney deal bombed.

Oh, obviously not right now. But once we're better situated, and have gotten into the black, is my hope. This is just me floating the idea and trying to see how people feel in principle about not licking the boot of the military.
