The Avengers

[Guest mr. potato head]

Some sort of updated version of Space Phantoms to tie more directly into the early days of the comics?

A small thought occurs on the back of my mentioning the Baxter Building in the Spiderman thread: I'm guessing from the number of shots of them in some high-up room in view of the Chrysler Building, that perhaps we get an Avengers Tower in this movie... As opposed to an Avengers Mansion or similar, that is.

Those were\ for most purposes - Skrulls too. It's been a while since I saw those films though.. I know there was a difference but if they were going to go with that.. why not just Skrull?

Eh I dunno.

[EWB's Best Poster.]

Ill sum up the movie.

Fights over in 20. Thor gets knocked down. Hulk picks up hammer. Two hours of trying to stop the hulk.

[Johnny Latino Heat]

New trailer.

That's it, I'll fucking hibernate until it premieres.

Really not into Captain America's costume this go around. Everyone looks great and then he looks like he got his off the Power Rangers rack.

It's his damn head cowl thing. They made it look like it was moulded out of clay instead of tight to his body. It makes it look ridiculous.

Loks so good. Less than two months now.

Ho. Ly. Shit.

Me Want. Me want Now.

He also looks like he's half the size he was in his movie too.

For those of you interested, here's the first look at Cobie Smulder as Maria Hill.

This movie looks like it will be fun I'm hoping it's better than Captain America. That was such a huge disappointment. I think they're trying to go with the Ulitmates version of Cap's costume in this film.

Captain America was excellent, what are you talking about? That's exactly how a Captain America movie set during World War 2 should have been.

I had issues with it too (I rank them Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Captain America, Iron Man 2). My main issue was how underutilized I felt Red Skull really was, how silly the love story was played out, and how I had almost zero emotional connection with said love story. It should have been a big deal at the end, but it all feltreally stupid, silly, and unimportant. That said, the casting and acting was excellent, the script was far better than I would have ever hoped, and the effects were bright and shiny and ooooo and ahhhhh.

I agree completely that's exactly how I felt.

I also felt no emotion when Bucky was killed in the film.

I wouldn't rank Thor as high as you though. I thought Incredible Hulk was better than Thor. Thor trying to adjust to Earth was funny, I think I would have rather watched an entire movie of that to be honest.

I had really low hopes of Thor. Trailers made it look too goofy, but I finally watched it last week and it was fantastic. I've not seen CapAm or Hulk yet. I don't like the idea of Ed Norton in the role so I dunno if I even want to bother with that..
