10. The Threat Of Thanos Will Force The Avengers To Reunite After The Events Of Civil War
Considering the huge fallout that we already know is set to occur in Captain America: Civil War, it stands to reason that the gang will remain divided in the wake of the film's central inter-superhero melee - especially if poor ol' Steve Rogers ends up going the way of the dodo at the end of the film as some rumours have suggested. Should Civil War end on a bum note, then, it's likely the Avengers will still be a divided force by the time the events of Infinity War roll around, which means that - in order for them to reunite in order for it to be an "Avengers" movie - they'll need a good reason. One fan theory purports that the Avengers will remain in a state of disarray until Thanos lurks his ugly head and reveals his intentions, forcing them to put their differences aside. This theory only works if the dispute at the end of Civil War remains unresolved and the Avengers don't kiss and make up, however (which seems unlikely).
