Not enough.
he got paid in collectors cards
Probably 1/4th the amount of the least payed of the main six members.

Guess it makes sense. I can't imagine Marvel ever though that Iron Man woudl end up being the most popular given he wasn't very well known before the movies. And most of that success is due to RDJ's great performance.
Not nearly enough credit.

Hulk.....glad?
What awesome attention to detail moments are in this movie?
- Stark gets attacked in front of a shwarma place, mentions it later, probably saw it during the battle
- two birds fly by Thor and Loki on that mountain, those birds are from the comic and acts as Odin's eyes on earth
- the first scene with Iron Man shows him under water, which later explains why his suit can handle going into outer space
- even bothering to carefully show Hawkeye's bow/arrow/quiver mechanism
- Hulk can't lift Thor's hammer
- how the Mark VII needs those bracelets to grab on to Stark when being put on
- the 'one-er' shot: the Black Widow riding on the bike -> Assist from Iron Man -> Iron Man lands and shoots Captain America's shields for the spread shot -> flys by Hawkeye shooting arrows -> arrow flys by Hulk and Thor riding one of the big beasts

I loved how even the HULK couldn't lift Thors hammer.
Nice, I didn't catch that at all.

In related money news, apparently Stan Lee doesn't make any money off of his cameos in these movies. He said that he just enjoys being a part of things.
Also, as I was watching the Avengers and they had finally won I was wondering if I had missed the Stan Lee cameo only for it to appear two seconds later. Proving once and for all that a person needs his yearly dose of Stan Lee or the mind begins to obsess over it.

From the comic? Try mythology. Odin has always been associated with ravens.
I'm pretty sure the thing about Captain America reflecting the laser from Iron Man in that exact way comes from the Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 game, but it's probably from the comics. As for the little details, the Black Sabbath shirt and Widow's gloves.

Just me or did they make the Hammer bigger so Hulk could hold it.... It's smaller than that when Thor holds it.
Edit: They did.

Errr, what? Hulk's hand takes up nearly the entire handle. When Thor holds it, he barely takes up half of it.

Hulk's hand takes like 2/3 of it. His hand is way larger in proportion to his body, it should take up the whole handle. There's a good sized gap between the hammer and where Hulk holds it.

I don't think we'd change the size of an asset for one shot when quickly after we'd have to change it again for when Thor's back in the shot, it would be too noticeable.
EDIT: Looking at the renders frame by frame and the sequence after, I don't see a resize. Due to the angle of the gif though, what you're not seeing is how much wider his hand is. The handle is pretty much only in his fingers, not even in his palm.

Funny how I remember Loki being smashed lasting longer, but when I saw the movie the second time it was really that short.

The hammer does look bigger. I guess it's just a cheat.

Are you looking at the same original 2K renders I am, or the short, small-sized gif taken from a poor bootleg capture?

I love how Thor does a Tiger Knee on Hulk as he tries to lift the hammer.
I'm not entirely familiar with the Hulk. What was the deal with Bruce Banner seemingly able to control the Hulk personality? I thought the whole thing with the Hulk is that he isn't controllable. Bruce seems to change at will in the calm between the start and the end of the battle in Manhattan.

Then I bow to his superior pixel investigative skills!
I loved how even the HULK couldn't lift Thors hammer.
But let's be serious. Look carefully at the gif, Thor starts off what, like way less than half the size of Hulk, he tosses his tiny hammer, I mean its teensy! As it travels to Hulk, it's magically altering in size and when it lands in Hulk's hand, its suddenly large enough to fit in Hulk's hand. This is just too incredible to believe. I can't swallow this hogwash.
I hope this post puts things into perspective.

Are we really questioning the size-changing properties of a magical, mythical, lightning infused, worthiness enchanted hammer forged from a dying star to be wielded by a godlike being from another realm of existence?
Just checking.

Yes, it definitely looks off; but of course XiaNaphyrz will deny it by citing his access to ultra-high res frame by frame captures of the scene --- then he will go on to claim that the very act of mentioning something seems off is demeaning to him & his co-workers and that we're all going on his ignore list.
The bait is too great!!
Avengers: Joss Whedon talks sequel, Buffy and X-Men parallels
Is this a negotiating ploy for more money for the sequel?

Having now seen that he actually was the right choice for this movie I'm now really worried about the idea of someone else at the helm.

Brad Bird for Avengers 2!
He's already shown he can masterfully handle teams of superheroes via The Incredibles.
