Marvel's Phase 2

Three things I did not know:
1. That television shows will start to become like movie franchises. (I did know about the Whedon-produced SHIELD show, however).
2. Competing studios are actually starting to talk to each other (cough, Fantastic Four, cough).
3. This may help create longer-form story telling (which definitely made me think of Lord of the Rings, which is essentially one movie).

Two opinions:
1. Iron Man 3 looks cool, but MAN am I excited for both Ant-Man (directed by one Mr. Edgar Wright, who is easily in my top three filmmakers) and Guardians of the Galaxy (directed by James Gunn, who made Super, which, while not one of my favorite films ever, definitely did some crazy things [that scene with the wrench and "cutting"? Man... I'll never forget that]).
2. I'm not sure whether to be excited about Man of Steel or not. Zach Snyder is visually a good director, and since he's not writing the script the film may actually be good.

One question:
1. Avengers 2, where are you...2015? Aw, man...
