The ending must be a deliberate reference to

, right?

I haven't seen the 2008 hulk movie. Should I watch or skip it considering the Norton affair?

Nothing in Avengers really references it.

 

[3N16MA]

Most probably already know this (new to me) but Ruffalo signed up to reprise his role as Hulk/Banner for six more films. I'm assuming some of those are appearances are in other Marvel films and also standalone Hulk films.

 

[nib95]

Going to see this again tomorrow. Orange Wednesday FTW! I'm hoping I'll like it more the second time.

 

[Road]

lolwut. Steve Rogers doesn't age, FYI.

Nobody said he does or should...

Chris Evans looking young didn't get in the way of the CA movie -- he was the only one in the spotlight -- but it does in the Avengers -- he looks like a boy among men.

I hadn't heard that either. Great news! More RuffaHulk!

Hope he got a better deal that ScaJololololol did.

This so much. I can't buy Stark listening to him.

 

[Mafro]

I thought Chris Evans as Captain America was miscast, but after seeing The Avengers tonight my opinion has completely changed. He was great in the role, and also the suit looks nowhere near as bad as it does in photos.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Employee screening tomorrow night. Gonna be nice to finally see everything in final edit context for once.

 

[Replicant]

AHAHAHAHA. I just saw this and he's honestly right. I was like "Man, Cap is so outclassed when put against these other freaks of nature." I love the character and love his vulnerability but it does highlight the discrepancy between his power and the rest of the characters' power, Black Widow and Hawkeye excluded because they are even weaker.

Chris Evans is a funny guy too, he always comes across to me as a geek guy who happens to be blessed with good looks and manage to make a career out of it. That story about him being socially awkward though, ouch, I cringed a bit because I've done something as embarrassing as that.

 

[TAJ]

Nothing in Avengers really references it.

People who haven't seen it seem to be confused about how his powers work.

To be fair, people who have seen it seem to be just as 'confused'.

What story?

He was meeting Ben Affleck for the 1st time to audition for a role in Gone Baby Gone and pretty much became nervous and ended up saying socially awkward stuff to the guy:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2v8r_cikw0

He's also has admitted that he has social anxiety problem when in public in another interview.

 

[Joel Was Right]

Just cant get over how many beautiful shots there were in Thor

 

[Nesotenso]

The two crows are from Norse mythology

Sleipnir in the movie also had eight legs.

Hope he got a better deal that ScaJololololol did.

Has anyone heard anything lately about the Lego Avengers poster giveaway on opening day? Google isn't turning anything up on which theaters will be participating.

 

[neojubei]

I love the fact those that doubted the Avengers are now eating crow.

Its the casting of the dark knight all over again lol. That crow eating was good.

 

[Expendable.]

Is is true there was another bonus scene after ALL the credits? A critic friend said such on Twitter for a US press screening he saw tonight. I didn't bother staying later than the dumb

Spoiler

Thanos

one last night.

 

[Good Job Bob]

^

So the US does get an extra scene after all?

I sure hope not. It's not fair to international audiences.

she really did seem very token

Yeah, see his tweets here -> https://twitter.com/#!/thefilmcynic

I sent him a message, hopefully he'll get back.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

They're going to get you to see it again the following weekend!

 

[DarkWish]

I haven't heard anything yet, however the rumor was the US might get it and since there weren't any screenings in the US yet, nobody knew for sure. This is the first I'm hearing of this... any chance you could ask this guy to clarify what the scene was so we could get confirmation?

EDIT: Just saw his tweets... holy crap. So maybe there is another scene after all!

 

[hamchan]

They're going to get you to see it again the following weekend!

I've already seen it twice. No way I'm going for a third time ><

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

Okay so second scene confirmed, now we need a description and we're golden.

 

[The Outsider]

So the US might be getting a second bonus scene after all?

I was hopeful, but that seemed kinda shitty to international audiences.

 

[Joel Was Right]

I think people are getting way too caught up on the idea that China = Mandarin. I don't think he is the villain. My personal gut feeling is that they're doing Extremis (already rumored) and

Spoiler

Stark Resilient

(hinted at in Avengers).

Spoiler

The entire clean energy story push is very likely going to be tied to Stark trying to do some good in the world after reflecting on the events of Avengers, and picking China as a location to try and introduce the technology. Extremis would be the threat, and could be a form of sabotage or corporate warfare to stop Stark from destroying the energy industry.

I could be wrong, but this makes more sense to me than the movie being a big collaboration with China and the Chinese government only to go with a predictable, cliched, and arguably racist villain in the form of The Mandarin. I would love to see Fin Fang Foom, but I really don't think it's going to happen.

I'm curious as to why they've avoided Mandarin. Perhaps they just haven't worked out how to do it?

They should fucking release it on YouTube. There is no excuse not to

We had to wait for a week! This is their apology.

A week? HAH! Australians have to wait for 4 months to see The Cabin In The Woods.

lol, Japan have to wait til August, sucks for them.

Not to mention that I already preordered my ticket so I deserve bonus content.

[Ignis Fatuus]

Ask him to spoil it already!

 

[Joel Was Right]

Good idea. Will do

 

[DarkWish]

He said he would direct message what it is to people. My tweets are secure so it's too much of a hassle to do it for me... someone ask him what it is!

This makes him hotter.

And he was already HOT.

Trying to.

Could be a scam to get followers, but we'll see soon.

I got the second scene details. I can't believe it.

Spoiler

Scene: the whole Avengers team post-battle quietly eating shwarma for about a minute, no dialogue.

It's odd because Hemsworth made an unrelated remark in one of his interviews recently about

Haven't seen the movie but I am guessing it is based on an earlier dialogue.

Well Stark does say that's what they should do

I can't remember. Does it ring a bell for anyone?
