Going to be an Avengers 2, with Thor 2, Iron man 3, and Captain America 2 before it. Those 3 go their own separate ways to "do some growing" then come back to the Avengers.
No love for Hulk
I'm thinking in IM 3 War Machine will have a bigger role and Tony will fall into the alcoholic abyss.
watched it in dbox today at riverport...pretty awesome, made the movie experience alot better...but its way too overpriced imo.It costed me like $47 for 2 ppl
Watched it on Tuesday, $12.50 per ticket Ultra AVX 3D, since VIP was sold out
Pretty good movie, had some good laughs and action, definitely want to watch it again and I can't wait for Avengers 2! I'm guessing it's gonna be released in 2013? or 2014?
FUCK! Missed the 2nd bonus scene, only saw the first one
How packed were the theaters when you guys watched it? Watching it tomorrow and wondering would i need to get there ahead of time to get seats.
Watched it at 10:45 last night, not busy at all, as if you were watching an average movie. Then again, it was a Thursday and not Saturday.
As for my take on the movie; Joss Whedon made it fucking awesome to watch. Has his usual style of one-liners during action scenes to keep it from being too tense and serious. Not sure how much of it was the actors making their changes to the script, though
Spoiler!
The entire scene with Iron Man waking up after plunging from the portal was entirely Robert Downey Jr. according to an article on Entertainment Weekly. Apparently it went from one "So, what's next?" to a whole four page script, which was then edited for the movie
Still can't get over how good the action during the last half hour is.
Can't believe I missed Iron Man calling Hawkeye "Legolas" the first time around! Good shit!
That and
Spoiler!
Cap Am: ...and Hulk, smash.
killed it lol. Did anyone else notice
Spoiler!
Iron Man reflecting beams off of Cap Am's shield? It barely showed up in one scene as it panned towards the rooftops to show what Hawkeye was up to. Not sure if it was in the comics (pretty sure it would be) but it definitely was one of the joint attacks that you could do in the Ultimate Alliance games. The little details that went into this are amazing
VIP is wack. They should fucking tell you ahead of time they don't have their booze license yet to serve in the actual theater. I couldn't pick my friggin seats on the phone, and get there and find out I can't have a drink in the theater. Fuck VIP, last time I pay for that bullshit.
As for the movie, it was great. Hawkeye and Black Widow feel like they don't belong though, when Thanos comes in the mix, WTF can these two even do? The balance of power in the team is a little strange, not the best mix of Avengers from the comics IMHO.
I saw it again today in Imax 3D, it really does make a huge difference compared to the normal 2D. What a great freaking movie, I wonder how soon it'll break the billion dollar box office mark.
I probably rate the movie 6.5-7/10. Something along 3rd Transformers movie.
I just hated Captain America's suit. In the First Avengers, it had this more rugged look. Now it looks like a jumpsuit, even worse than Spiderman's.
And he's called Capt for a reason, because he has leadership qualities. He looked lost in the movie, and the times he's giving out commands, it sounded weak, as trying to prove that he can at least do something.
edit:
Now I know why I hate it even more, it looks exactly like the costume that he was wearing in the first movie when he was doing some cheerleading shit.
I just think the main problem was the costume was too sleek and it made him look skinnier than he was in Captain America: The first Avengers. That or he lost weight before the movie?
Also his helmet was just shaped really oddly and they covered up the ears. But they still made it pretty damn close to the actual costume universe.
My guess is the ww2 outfit is looser and has bigger shoulder pads making him look bigger.
Hopefully the tweak it quite a bit for the next movie to make him look bigger.

^Yea, it's the helmet, it just looks weird, and I was hoping it would look better in film when I first saw the pictures.

I thought he did an OK job in portraying Cap in the first movie.
I kind of understand what the director's trying to do, to portray his inner struggle coming into the modern world, hence, looking lost at times, but the moment he puts on the Avengers' suit, hard to take him seriously.
Particularly in this movie, he just doesn't have that demeanor of a well-respected and confident war hero.
The movie was still enjoyable, but too much Stark, and for a god, Thor doesn't display a lot of god-power.
Damn movie made me crave a shawarma at 1am after the 10:30pm showing lol ...
Spoiler!
- With that much runtime of 2h 27m I wish they could have use Hulk more in the storyline ... did not like how he magically turned from a raging smash machine into a smart humanoid hulk
- as mentioned above, I noticed the director tried to balance out the heroes but Thor was definitely "nerfed" so that he wasn't very Godlike ... Iron Man had lots of run time which was good and bad because he was entertaining, Widow is HAWT but useless as is Hawkeye lol ...
- If Wolverine was put into the movie I would have went ballistic lol!

These were grabbed from another forum but I think that it would somewhat explain the Hulks change of heart.

First time = instinctual survival transformation. When Hulk comes to he just knows that he was in danger and nothing else. He sees the only possible threat that could have triggered him is Black Widow. Therefore, in his mind, he had to eliminate the only possible threat. The fact that Loki was mentally influencing the whole team just before hand doesn't help much either.
Second = Intentional transformation in which Hulk has no reason to just attack. Banner triggering Hulk is unforced and therefore Hulk isn't in pure instinct mode. He can therefore judge his surroundings and decide what is a threat to him and what is a help to him.

I totally thought the first Hulk out his mind was being messed with by Loki and that staff , it was making them all want to fight each other and Loki targeted Hulk to destroy the team and the ship . At one point Banner even picked up the staff without even knowing it so you know he was being controlled . Hulks being uncontrollable may have had a little to do with the explosion and how he changed but I thought it had a lot more to do with Loki messing with his mind .
Batman is much more...high concept? Batman Begins and The Dark Knight are great movies as movies...like as a piece of film-making, they're in the top 1% of movies while The Avengers is a popcorn filck, it's just a different kind of movie.
