The Infinity Gems in Marvel's Cinematic Universe

The Infinity Gems are six stones that grant their holders amazing powers. In the comics, the mad titan Thanos has taken all the gems for himself several times in his Infinity Gauntlet to grant himself power that can only be compared to that of a god's. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we have seen several of these gems, and although their colors have been changed, here are all the gems we've seen so far:

Space Gem: Tesseract

This gem has shown that it has the ability to bend space in the Avengers movie by teleporting the entire Chitari army to Earth under the command of Loki. This gem could also have teleported Red Skull away, since his body was never found.

Reality gem: Aether

This gem was the red goo that took on Jane Foster as a host in Thor: The Dark World. It was used by Malekith, king of the dark elves, to also most bring all of the nine realms together.

Power Gem: ?

This gem wasn't addressed by name throughout the entire Guardians of the Galaxy movie, but was used by Ronan the Accuser to almost destroy an entire planet.

Mind Gem: ?

This gem is assumed by fans to be the glowing blue bit in Loki's scepter. The scepter in question was also seen the Avengers 2 trailer, meaning it could be the thing that gives Ultron his sentience.

Soul Gem: ?
This gem is assumed to be the yellow stone seen on the Vision at the end of the Avengers 2 trailer, meaning it could be what gives the Vision both his sentience and his humanity.

Time gem: ?

Marvel Phase 3

Everyone's probably heard about the Marvel event where Marvel announced all of its phase three movies, but I'm going to do a recap with some of my thoughts:

Captain America: Civil War (2016): Based on the amazing graphic novel, this story will circle around the government wanting superheroes to enlist and register their secret identities. The movie will be slightly different because everyone knows all the heroes' identities. Expect an Ironman vs. Cap fight that should rival the Shakespeare in the Park scene from the Avengers!

Doctor Strange (2016): This one shouldn't be an origin movie, but will open up the magic side of the Marvel Universe, much like Guardians of the Galaxy opened up the cosmic side of it. Just don't use his arch enemy, Dormamu, in his first film and I won't complain. Also, Cumberbatch in a Marvel movie can only be a good thing.

Guardians of the Galaxy 2 (2017): More Groot and Rocket, obviously. Otherwise, keep doing what your doing!

Thor: Ragnarok (2017): This movie will either have our favorite thunder god fighting the giant serpent Ragnarok, or follow the comic and have the gods be destroyed and reborn with no memory. Oh, and more Loki, can't have a Thor movie without Loki.

Black Panther (2017): The king of Uganda will feature in Captain America Civil War, and will likely face an enemy we'll be seeing in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Ten points to who ever can find Ulysses Klaw in the trailer!

Avengers: Infinity War Part 1 (2018) Part 2 (2019): I just hope it doesn't turn out that I waited six years for Thanos for nothing! That would suck. Also, that second part probably means they can't defeat him alone and call the Guardians for the second film.

Captain Marvel (2018): The first female-led Marvel movie, Captain Marvel will follow Carol Danvers' adventures on Earth. Wait, Earth?! No, no, no, Captan Marvel is a space hero that often teams up with the Guardians, why is she on Earth? Also, I had this little conspiracy theory that Sky from Marvel's Agents of Shield was going to become Captain Marvel since the show has been featuring lots of alien (Kree!) related stuff. You'll see. Probably...

Inhumans (2018): The final movie in Marvel's Phase 3 is the Inhumans, Marvels response to the X-Men. The Inhumans are a race that has been hiding from humanity, and are exposed to a gas that gives them powers on their 18th birthday, or something like that.

Well, that's it! I don't know where Ant-Man fits in, although its probably coming 2016 or 2015 since they showed some few-second scenes in Marvel specials. Thanks for reading!

Guardians of the Galaxy Review: Warning! Spoilers!

Guardians of the Galaxy was one of the greatest Marvel movies ever, rivaling the Avengers itself. If you've seen the movie, you would probably agree. From Drax's punch lines, to a dancing Groot, to a Howard the Duck after credits scene, Guardians of the Galaxy was funny, surprising, suspenseful, and action packed. There was just one problem. They repeated over, and over, and over IF YOU TOUCH THE STONE YOU DIE. They also showed that the Tesseract (Avengers) and the Aether (Thor the Dark World) were in the same category. Therefore, if you touch them, should you not also die? But NOOOO Nick Fury grabbed the Tesseract being all "Screw safety!", and Thor's girlfriend had the Aether inside her. These "infinity gems" are very picky and choosey on when they want to turn people to dust. Other than that, great movie, must see!
