Marvels: The Avengers (Trailer)

Saw a screening of the Avengers yesterday. It was fantastic. Mark Ruffalo wasn’t as bad as I feared, and Hulk was the best he’s been.

RDJ was great, of course.

Overall, the screen time was quite balanced, without too much going to anyone character. Hawkeye got less…ish, as would be expected for a character who hasn’t had his own movie for people to get to know him.

You’ll love it.

The after-credit scene is…well. No spoilers, but it sets up something exceptionally ambitious.

EDIT - Also: the screening was in IMAX 3D, and it blew my fucking mind. Exceptionally well done.[/quote]

Damn John you got connections or what?

Can you hook MattyXL up with some Jets tickets?

A coaching client hooked me up =) T-Nation reader, actually; he may chime in.

Yeah, definitely. I try to go to every game but usually have to miss at least one for travel. Definitely happy to hook him up.

I like how the music is not overpowering the action here.

For fuck’s sake!

Hulk vs Thor. Hulk’s saving grace is his strength and regeneration. He has untapped potential as far strength. Like Hulk, Thor can lift an excess of 100 tons. You can’t calculate both their strength. Thor always holds back and Hulk is always becoming strongerr. Thor has lifted the world with midgard serpent wrapped around it. And when he fights powerhouses like Juggernaut and Hulk, he’s willing to fight them hand to hand. Even then, he’s holding back.

I’ll let Hulk win in the strength battle, but its still close. But fighting skill, speed, intelligent, and powers goes to Thor in a landslide.

Fuck that lame science experiment, the God of Thunder is the truth.[/quote]

QFT

I don;t know why these two are fighting but this scene is still great.

I know this sounds silly but I swear that this movie looks like it can simply do no wrong. It may the most fun I’ve ever had in a theater other than Highlander 2 (but that had nothing to do with the movie).

I wish the Star Wars prequels were this good…like they should have been!

My only reservation is that Thor seems slightly overpowered for a demigod. Apart from that, it looks like it’ll deliver.

You guys are going to have the movie posted and spoiled in clips before I get to see it.

I’ve tried to avoid watching the clips…but I’ve slipped…lol. However,I’ve seen that the movie runtime is bordering 2hrs 30mins…so that helps ease my guilt of watching the clips.

I admit to being a Clip whore. But I have noticed that many times the clips are not even in the movies.

So true bro. Hell…most trailers these days include stuff that never make it on big screen.

Thor’s pops is Odin and his mom is Gaea who is a goddess and is the embodiment of Earth. Also in the comics he’s powned Thor on multiple occasions. The only Avenger that is on par with Thor would be the Hulkster.

It was an in-thread joke. Stark calls Thor a demigod in the ‘Head Count’ TV spot.

Huh? No. Just a misunderstanding, Sardines.

Don’t know about you, but if the movie’s quality stuff, like this looks to be, I’ll watch enough clips to have a mental map of the DVD commentary track and special features, then go buy four tickets to this thing in successive viewings.

On a Sunday, because the Church of the Comic Book is fucking srsbzns.
