Hey guys!
Welcome back to Top 10 Nerd, I’m Ron McKenzie-Lefurgey.
I don’t know about you, but I’m psyched as hell for Infinity War.
And the Russo Brothers recently said that they wouldn’t announce the title of Avengers
4 yet because it would have spoilers for Infinity War, which has a lot of fans pretty nervous.
And according to the Russos, we should be.
All we know is that it will be an adventure film that follows Infinity War with huge emotional
stakes.
So let’s hypothesize as to what the title might be, given what we know about the movies
and storylines in the comics!

But first, get ready, it’s time for the Top 10 Potential Titles for Avengers 4!
Number 10: The New Avengers.
This one would work so damn well, for so many reasons.
For one, it’s kind of a big thing in the comics, maybe you’ve heard about it.
Plus it would make sense that they wouldn’t want to say it now, because having new Avengers
kinda spoils the fact that the old Avengers will be on their way out.
PLUS it stars many of the heroes just stepping into the limelight, like Doctor Strange, Tom
Holland’s Spider-Man, even Luke Cage and Iron Fist…
PLUS it would make sense since it looks like Hawkeye will probably die and turn into his
alter-ego Ronin… the list goes on.
This one has a real chance, but even if it isn’t in the title, I think the New Avengers
will be pretty significant.
Which is why I put this at number 10, so you know what I’m talking about later.
Number 9: Avengers Underground.
Following Civil War in the comics, the New Avengers had to go underground, first hiding
at the Sanctum Sanctorum, and later at one of Danny Rand's apartment buildings.
Because, if you remember, he’s super rich.
This would include a bunch of recently-introduced heroes, like Strange, Spidey, and Iron Fist,
plus it involves Ronin, who will probably be set up in Infinity War.
Not sure how likely this is, though, since it would exclude a lot of heroes and all the
hiding wouldn’t be super blockbuster-y.
Number 8: Avengers Disassembled.
Avengers Disassembled was instrumental in revitalizing the popularity of the series,
and could be a pretty good title.
A whole bunch of stuff goes wrong; Tony’s alcoholism takes over, She Hulk kills Vision,
the Kree invade…
it’s not fun.
But at the same time, it would be pretty fun to see in a movie!
Infinity War will be tumultuous and deadly, and it could well be that it will lead to
a bunch of misfortune that could cause Scarlet Witch to rewrite the world.
I think this one has potential.
Number 7: Avengers: Breakout.
In the comics, following disassembled, there was a huge prison break and a bunch of heroes
had to come together, forming the New Avengers.
These included Daredevil and Luke Cage, who are totally set to join the movies with the
success of their shows, making it even more likely.
Maybe Thanos will be defeated, but he’ll manage to release a bunch of super villains
onto the world, leading the heroes to have to deal with a bunch of awesome baddies.
This could allow the introduction of some great villains, and even their respective
heroes.
Number 6: Avengers: The Kang Dynasty.
The Kang Dynasty was an epic 16 part storyline that saw Kang the Conqueror trying to take
over the Earth, in an attempt to save it.
But the Avengers don’t want earth to be taken over, so they fight against Kang and
his futuristic army.
And it includes a giant, planet sized Kang fighting a giant, planet sized Cap.
Yeah, it’s awesome.
This would have some sick battles and cool plot points, but it might be too similar to
Infinity War, or even the first Avengers movie, for them to use the invasion plot again.
But speaking of similarities to past movies…
Number 5: Avengers: Civil War 2.
Civil War 2 was a recent storyline in the comics that had some pretty huge implications.
It would make sense that Marvel would make the movie line up with one of the most popular
recent storylines in Marvel Comics.
This saw Tony facing off against Captain Marvel, arguing over whether to use an Inhuman’s
predictive ability to stop crimes before they happen.
We already know that Captain Marvel is on her way to the MCU, which definitely helps
this case, and if Iron Man manages to survive Infinity War, this would be a good opportunity
to kill him off.
That said, this seems more like an Avengers 5 storyline than the sequel to Infinity War.
Number 4: Avengers 4: The Wrath of Ron.
Yep, time to let you guys in on a little secret.
The reason they don’t want to spoil things is that I, Ron, will be making my debut appearance
in Infinity War, playing myself.
I join the Avengers, Maria Hill falls desperately in love with me, of course, and everyone agrees
that I’m just awesome.
There’s an orgy scene that is done super tastefully.
But then Thanos comes and takes my powers, and I go back to making videos about superheroes
on YouTube.
And Stan Lee plays my wisecracking but supportive grandpa.
The Wrath of Ron will tell the story of how I get my powers back and win back the heart
of Cobie Smulders through global domination…
That’s right, I had fun with this one, I’m not even sorry!
Sometimes it’s fun to dream.
(Editor: If it’s at all possible to photoshop the wrath of khan poster all marvel-y with
my face that would be wicked, but if that would take too long screw it)
Number 3: Avengers: Dark Reign.
As you may know, in the comics, Norman Osborne managed to become the head of the Avengers
and SHIELD, leading to the creation of the Dark Avengers.
It could be that he’ll take this new position after Infinity War, and the sequel would involve
the New Avengers trying to take Osborne down.
It could even be that we’ll be introduced to Norm in the next Spider-Man movie.
Only problem is, this might be a bit too similar to the registration drama in civil war.
But it’d be pretty good.
Number 2: Avengers: Secret Invasion.
In the comics, the Earth is invaded by the Skrulls, a shape-shifting race of aliens,
who try to take over the world.
This is another New Avengers storyline, so it has all the perks of the likelihood of
the New Avengers.
Plus, it involves Hawkeye’s other form, Ronin, and his family, who were already set
up in Civil War.
Maybe a twist at the end of Infinity War will involve them learning the shapeshifting Skrulls
have already invaded, and will set off a new quest to defeat them.
Number 1: Avengers: Infinity Gauntlet.
This one is quite the winner.
We already know the gauntlet will be a central plot point in Infinity War.
We know that Avengers 4 will follow the events of Infinity War.
Plus, there could be a double entendre, because gauntlet could also refer to difficult series
of quests that must be completed to Stop Thanos.
But the kicker is that Zoe Saldana, aka Gamora, might have accidentally let it slip in an
interview, when she said “We all have to go back for Gauntlet next year”.
James Gunn said she misspoke, but personally…
I think she done goofed.
That’s it for today!
