My thoughts on Avengers 3...

There's growing speculation (as well as rumor) that Avengers 3: Death, Taxes and Thanos (or whatever they'll call it) will have a brand new line-up...and that's freaking people out.
(sigh)
After listening to Chris Evans' comments during SDCC 2014, it sounds like as of right now (as I write this) Cap's biggest problem isn't dealing with living in "the future", it's finding his place in that future. 
It's not with the Army...
It's not with S.H.I.E.L.D....
So where could it possibly belong?
Marvel Studios has been pretty clear that the Avengers in the comics have a revolving line-up. It stands to follow that the Avengers in the MMU will also have a revolving line-up. This makes sense, and I'm perfectly fine with it.
However...
1) They're going up against freakin' Thanos. They're gonna need every hero they can get.
2) We already know RDJ's gonna be in Avengers 3 (and will most likely be his final appearance), so yeah Iron Man, but change is coming.
3) There's the AoS series - which has finally gotten off it's a$$ and will actually start featuring known Marvel characters - meaning we won't have to wait for features to get origin stories and/or more people populating the MMU.
4) Same goes for the upcoming Netflix series-es. 
So Cap will most likely live at Avengers Tower, 
and be in charge of calling whomever he can to "Assemble",
and he'll have quite the list to choose from...which is awesome.
