I will admit that there's a lot that I don't know about the story line that is supposedly running through these movies, but I'm pretty sure that the Accuser character in the the "Guardians" movie is supposed to be a Kree.
Yes, Ronan was a Kree.
If I'm right, then I'm also guessing that the Avengers, Guardians, and who knows who else are going to be involved in the "Kree-Skrull war" at some point.
Not that I'm aware of. I don't think that Marvel will be using the Skrulls.

If I'm right about that, then what I would like to see-even though they probably won't do it-is for the new Fantastic Four movie to be a combining and re-telling of the first two issues of the original comic book series.
First tell their origin story right.
Then MAYBE have an encounter, or at least a brief mention of the Mole Man.
Then have that "first contact" with the Skrulls. Maybe even bring the Super Skrull into it.
Because after all, it was the F.F., in the second issue of their original series that FIRST encountered the Skrulls.
Most likely none of that is happening in the new FF movie. Unlike Marvel Studios, Fox doesn't care that much about faithfulness to ideas from the actual comics.
And speaking of that upcoming movie: I HATE the fact that this is going to make me sound like a racist, but I am getting sick of the way they they have to keep drastically changing the physical appearance, or even the very ETHNICITY of so many of the key characters.
Such as the Kingpin in the Daredevil movie, and Johnny Storm in the upcoming F.F. movie. Or the fact that Ben Kingsley played the MANDARIN in Iron Man 3! Der! Shouldn't the NAME ALONE tell those imbeciles that the character is supposed to be Chinese? Or at least ASIAN???
But this isn't JUST about race: another example would be the previous two F.F. movies; Both Johnny Storm and Susan Storm/Richards didn't look ANYTHING like they do in the comic books, and they don't look NEARLY enough alike to be brother and sister! They could at least have dyed their hair blonde!
It would have made more sense appearance-wise to have John Myung play the Mandarin, Leonardo DeCaprio or Matt Damon play Johnny Storm, and Jessica Simpson play Susan Storm!!!
I kind of understand what you mean on this, but as far as the actor playing Johnny in the new film - he is a good actor, so if the story makes sense, that will be fine. I still don't see the reason for the change, but whatever, it's Fox.
But in the original FF films - Alba and Evans are blonde white people. How else could they look like the comics?

Well, I did say that there's a lot that I don't know.
You're right about how they change a lot of things, and I have HATED a lot of the changes that they made! It is VERY disrespectful.
However, Hef, you were wrong about a couple of things:
Jessica Alba's father is Mexican-American, which therefore makes HER "half-Mexican." Now I have lived in the SouthWest for most of my life, and if I have learned nothing else, I have at least learned that most-if not all-Mexicans do not like being called WHITE, or even "Caucasian!"
Also, I don't think Chris Evans is about 1/4 Italian, and Italians are not generally known for having blonde hair.
They did dye thier-especially her-hair a lighter color, but I don't remember J.A.'s hair being as light in the movies as it appears in the pictures, and C.E.'s hair wasn't QUITE blonde, and he had it cut so short that he almost looked like he had his head completely SHAVED! Again very different from the comic books.
