Vin Diesel teases 'Merging of Universes' for Marvel Phase 3

Pretty sure Mr. Diesel is simply referring to the fact that the Cosmic Marvel set movies and the Avengers movies will be blended together.
What he understands as "Marvel Universes" and what fans consider "Marvel Universes" likely aren't the same thing. He's probably referencing the different settings of the movies, and how they'll be blended, rather than hinting at the idea that Fox/Sony will be crossing over with Marvel in three years.
Besides which, there's absolutely no fucking way a deal that big isn't already cut, and if it's already cut, no way someone at either studio doesn't announce that move by now.

The Avengers was much more successful than Transformers 3, and it wasn't because it had better CGI aliens colliding with buildings. It was because of the exposition, and the dialogue, and not generally being a forgettable bore.
'People like us' isn't some small fringe group any more, everyone fancies themselves as a nerd nowadays. People like their superhero action movies to have some pretence of being more than just no brains explosion-fests. Look at the Dark Knight trilogy.
And having stuff that makes no sense happen would put people off, at least a bit.

Believe.
It's gonna happen
The ultimate movie.
Budget: $345,000,000,000
Release: 2055
Box office: $700,000,000,000
I believe.
This was my first thought too, especially if Thanos is being set up as the final villain for Avengers 3. The only thing that's throwing me is that Diesel said in a separate interview that what he talked to Marvel about was starring in a new IP for phase 3.

Spidey should have told him to shut his punk ass up. He was in the FF, and can do as much or more than Cap.
shoulda smacked the X-Men around again just to make a point

So Diesel owns Riddick. (universal gave it to him to get him into FF Tokyo drift?). Maybe a Riddick comic with with eventual cosmic role?

Just throw in riddick and wolverine. They are way better than movie versions of captain America and Thor. What a bunch of flunkies.
Aside from the action scenes, the only scenes that mattered in Avengers was when tony stark spoke. Cap and Thor sucked out the fun when they opened their mouths though

I just can't, I'm very pro-keep-different-fictional-universe-from-entirely-different-stories-from-entirely-different-authors-and-from-entirely-different-series-separate.
I mean I don't give a shit when it comes to video games and tv shows...
Just don't fuck with my Movies and comics/graphic novels....

you can't put a price on sparks
actually i kind of feel like spiderman sort of has useless powers when it comes to what they've been presenting in the Avengers movies. everyone seems so strong and has these ridiculous energy weapons and shit. spiderman isn't really that strong or anything, he just swings around and makes people punch themselves in the face.

Marvel would become the mightiest trolls ever if they did that. Especially if we still don't see Justice League by then.

I recently saw some teaser about the Marvel Universe going through a big change or whatever? Not being up with comics, with is that all about?
Edit: This is what I'm referring to.

Except Hulk/Banner and Cap had the best lines in the movie.

Inhumanity? Where Marvel is replacing mutants with Inhumans?
Spider-Man is way stronger than half the current movie Avengers. You could even make a case for him being at least as strong as Iron Man.
Darkmakaimura
Can You Imagine What SureAI Is Going To Do With Garfield?
Going by my edit, yeah that's probably what it is.
So what does this all mean? Who or what are "Inhumans"?

Remember guys. The new movie's title was changed to "Riddick" instead of "Chronicles of Riddick."
They could just retcon it into marvel pretty easily.

Yeah he was thrown in the sun and lived IIRC.

So they'll be an Inhuman Registration Act and Inhuman hunting Sentinels? Or is like Wolverine all of a sudden going to become an Inhuman?
I'm guessing this is not the mainstream Marvel.... eh.... 616 Earth?
He got near the sun, but Jean aka the Phoenix saved him.
Still pretty ridiculous though.

What is it about Vin Diesel that people like so much?

I never knew the Hulk was as strong as he was until recently. I mean, if I read correctly, he could crush the Earth like Batista could a ball sack.

He can regenerate on a cellular level.

Dat charisma. Something Thor and especially captain America lacked in avengers and was the reason why marvel studios is the tony stark show right now
Would be awesome to have somebody like riddick here or wolverine to carry some of the weight. Thankfully ultron will probably be very entertaining in avengers 2. And hopefully the casting for ant man is good

Vin Diesel in anything is god
I like you.
Sounds like a fun time for me, I'll pay to see this
thing I'll already pay to see thanks Joss Whedon
Woah, source?
His healing factor is pretty freaking ridiculous if the speed of his regeneration can match the destructive heat generated by being even slightly close to the sun.
It is the earth dealing with a big changes in the status quo. It is 616
No. That was from Nitro. He can explode like a bomb. He's the reason the Civil War thing happened.
Ultimate Wolverine has even better healing powers though.

eh, i dont watch fast & furious so i just dont see it...pitch black was alright, riddick was fucking terrible
still confused how someone could dig his flicks but apparently be above marvel films, though. and yeah hopefully ultron goes well, though ant man could die in the first 5 minutes and that'd be okay too
I haven't read a comic since the early 90's. Was he always like that?
