If they’re not going to do the booze story, Armor Wars would be the next best thing.

I’m actually not all that excited to have Thanos as a villain – all of the courting lady Death B.S. always seemed really contrived. But for the moment, I have tremendous faith in Whedon.

“Seems like the only really solid trilogies involve some level of back-to-back or all-in-one shooting schedules as it maintains a consistent tone and creative team dynamic.”

Yup, that worked really well for the Matrix sequels (snark!)
But, then again it actually DID work out for the Lord of the Rings…

It really all boils down to good scripts for all films… not just a great first script and then a panic scramble to figure out how the rest of the story goes.

There’s a Trilogy Curse in general. Either Movie X is too unpopular to reach 3 installments or too popular and every douche in Hollywood decides he needs his finger in the pie.
Even if IM3 is awesome, IM2 already hurts an Iron Man trilogy because they didn’t leave Favreau and co the fuck alone and didn’t give him enough time on pre-production.
