A popular pick among users on here to be the "other villain" for the Avengers are the Skrulls. Well I dont know if everyone knows this or but a fellow CBMer knows the other villain(s) and says it is NOT the Skrulls.
Earlier today, we got news that an alien chase scene was shot. Now that can either just be Loki (Loki is considered an alien) or the "other villain".
Here are a couple of choices the "other villain" could be:
Ultron
Like most people on this site I do not consider Ultron an option. That possibility was pretty much eliminated when we got the news Hank Pym will not be in the movie. Marvel has been pretty loyal to the source material and I doubt they would mess up Ultron's origins, So...
Kang
It would be awesome if Kang was the "other villain" but I highly doubt he is. The reason for my doubt is that in the movies Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and General Ross are all warned of a possible "big threat". Well, Kang is from the future and no one knows when he will show up. So it is impossible for Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D to warn anyone of someone whom they do not know.
Thanos
For those
noobs people who might be new to comics and dont know Thanos here is a description of his powers via Wikipedia:
"Thanos is a mutant member of the race of superhumans known as the Titanian Eternals. The character possesses abilities common to the Eternals, but in some cases far beyond any other known member of his race; acquired through a combination of his mutant Eternal heritage, bionic amplification, mysticism, and the entity Death. He has demonstrated enormous superhuman strength, stamina, and particularly durability; is able to absorb and project vast quantities of cosmic energy, enough to obliterate planets and at full power destroy entire solar systems; is virtually ageless and immortal; does not need food, drink, or oxygen; and is capable of certain telekinesis, as well as telepathy and matter manipulation. The advanced technology within his transportation chairs includes force field projection, time travel, movement through alternate universes, space flight, and teleportation over interstellar distances. Thanos is an accomplished hand-to-hand combatant, having been trained in the art of war on Titan.
Thanos possesses superhuman intellect (he considers his mind his greatest weapon) and has knowledge of Celestial and other alien technology. Thanos is a genius in virtually all known fields of advanced science and has created technology far exceeding contemporary Earth science. He is also a master strategist and sometimes utilizes a space vessel called Sanctuary II as a base of operations."
Thanos is another popular choice around here and I agree with everyone who believes so. He just seems to be the only logical choice using process of elimination.
What do you guys think?
