Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The reason why some comics EXPLODE in popularity is when we get to see heroes fight!  Civil War, AvX, Superman vs Marvel.. I'm gonna love this movie more than life!

When posting the above clip on my FB page, I came across a link to some "B-roll" behind the scenes camera stuff.  I don't think it's been shared.

Pretty packed with a lot of new stuff:

I'm at the point with Avengers where I don't want to see any more, at least until I can see the whole movie.  It's only 2 weeks....

I am totally amazed how much has been released already. I don't think I have seen more scenes from a movie that hasn't been released yet, as I have with Avengers.

Here's a Black Widow featurette.  Some stuff we may have seen, some stuff we probably didn't.

All of this is unfortunate, because now I must hate you.

Of course, I probably won't get to go on the opening weekend :(

UE also liked Ghost Rider enough to spend money on Ghost Rider 2. Keep that in mind, 'Casty.

lies all lies, i got into GR2 for free and still felt i deserved a refund

Unfortunately, I actually paid for that... :banghead:

 :)...I was tempted to mention here that i gave Ghost Rider 2 a chance and watched it....but man....i hate to say this....Nicholas Cage just ain't fit to play Ghost Rider, his interpretation of Ghost Rider just seemed really way off to me (putting it lightly). :( Didn't even finish the movie to be honest. :blink:

Well,it's rare to see TUE (or most of the guys here ) happy with the superhero movies they've watched. So...I'm sure Avengers will be great or will not suck at least like GR2. :)

The good news is, with Ghost Rider 2's horrible reception, they might just give up on any more movies and let the rights revert to Marvel.  Unfortunately, it was profitable and was a low budget movie to begin with, so it might not happen.
I am the cat that walks by himself, all ways are alike to me.

Saw the avengers twice this weekend, first with my geek friends in IMAX 3d, then again the next night with my new girlfriend. (had to pretend it was first time seeing it) let's just say I had a fantastic weekend.
I absolutely loved it, and might even see it a third time in the thater next weekend.

Marvel has done a really special thing here with the lead up of five previous movies.
I REALLY want to see a spinoff prequel now with Hawkeye and black widow.

Yes! I will co-sign the idea of a Hawkeye & Black Widow movie! They deserve some love. :P

So, Wikipedia has full details of the entire plot on The Avengers(2012 film) page.  I clicked on it to check out some of the production info, but after realizing that the "plot" wasn't just a overview like it was a few weeks ago, it took all I had to resist reading it, including and especially the after credits scene.  Unfortunately, my willpower isn't as strong as I would hope and I read the first bit of the first and last phrase before I threw my iPad across the room.

Spoiler
Needless to say, Nick Fury was right when he said, "You've become part of a bigger universe, you just don't know it."

The after credits scene was great.
It was pretty funny though, when i was with my new gf and the movie ended, a lot of the audience got up to leave (Koreans), and I mentioned under my breath something like "Haven't you guys seen a marvel movie before?"
Well my girl overheard me and said, "I just heard someone say that in Korean too!"
It feels pretty good that there are other superhero fans around the world that "get" what the marvel movies are about.

i actually enjoy and own quite a few of the recent superheros right back to blade, its just some of the design choices and changes that annoy me.

hell me and c6 have come to blows on here at times, usually with me defending the films

Sorry about that. Guess i tend to remember the negative reviews/feedback more. :doh:

I was able to watch the Avengers movie. I thought it was ok. The pace of the movie seemed pretty fast and there were enough action scenes to give every Avenger their moment in the spotlight. The movie also had it's share of funny moments too. But somehow i didn't think it was really that great a movie though. I dunno.
Spoiler
Maybe it's because they won so easily. :P :unsure:

Whoops...Edited to add a spoiler... :P :doh: :)

Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie.  Enjoyed the action.  Enjoyed the dialogue.  Like how they used everyone.  Everything about it.  Can't wait to they to recreat it all in FFVTTR.  But maybe it's four in the morning or Wawa didn't have muffins ready tonight maybe I'm just a little cranky, but there are some things that bother me.

Spoiler
1.  How did Loki go from falling off the Bifrost to standing up hand and hand with Thanos?  Really didn't explain the Chituari and their(Thanos' purpose).  Yes we probably know it bit regular movie goers?  We expect them to know that?

2.  Why wasn't the Hulk consistent with his rage?  First he couldn't control it.  One minute he falls down and starts to hulk out and attac the Black Widow for.  The next he an hulk out.. Whenerver he wants?

3.  Why did Loki get captured?  I know the goal was to fracture the Avengers, but they weren't together yet.  When he gave up it was just Captain America and Iron Man?  Seemed kind od pointless.

Anyway.  I starters writing this a few hours ago.  Took a nap and I don't think I'm as bothered.  Just still a little curious.

Tomato

Just watched it. about to go to bed (don't ask, sleep schedule is bizzaro right now), but I'll try to be at least somewhat coherent in discussion thingie.

Spoiler


1. At one point in the movie they make mention of the Chituari finding Loki adrift in space, which is more or less where he was at the end of Thor. The Chituari are relatively straightforward... they want to conquer things, which has NOTHING to do with Thanos other then their boss saying "Dude, you don't want to mess with these people, they just handed me my tucas."

As for not explaining who Thanos is to audiences? Er, I assume that's what the next few movies will be about. They didn't exactly explain Nick Fury at the end of Iron Man, or the Cosmic Cube at the end of Thor, or Mjolnir at the end of IM2. We're talking prime sequel territory here.

2. This confused me as well, but I discussed it with my father (the man who got me into comics in the first place and who joined me in geeking out over the film) and what we kind of pieced together is this: when Bruce tells Black Widow that his secret is "I'm always angry" he means just that: He's already so angry about the situation he's in that poking him with a stick is small potatoes. So at the end, when he transforms, it's not because he's magically got an on/off button in his brain, it's because he's just unleashing the anger he's always had.

3. Actually, his goal was to make a big show of things for his alien buddies... and for that, having a team of spandex clad heroes to kick around was much more visible and interesting than taking down a few SHIELD agents with cool guns.

Shogunn2517

Thanks.

Spoiler
But just note, I also remembered the end(actual end, not post credit end) of the Incredible Hulk.  Guess that had something to do with it.  Still not too sure though.  Anyone happen to know what the comics say about this?  Not too familiar with the character's intricacies. 

Anyway gonna check it again when I get off work.

Awesome film.  Really glad I saw it in 3d.
