In all seriousness though I think it's a terrible idea. Way to many characters from average to below average movies splitting screen time just doesn't work for me. It's corny and forced. Reminds me a bit of Mortal Kombat Annhilation where they just tried to shove as many characters in as possible granted the movie had worse problems then character development but the lack there of didn't help.
Well they had been leading up to this one for about 4 years. Giving background development all the way back to Iron Man 1. So when Loki tapped Starks heart and he retorted, it's already hard (or whatever) , everyone got the joke without retelling the creation of Iron Man.

I thought it was really well laid out, and was much more on the team development than any one character. The only ones shorted were Scarlet Johanson and the archer, because they came in with no huge background, and so some of that did seem forced, but overall, I thought it was very well played.

Really a top notch movie from my perspective.

Re: Avengers Movie

'The Avengers' smashes domestic box office record for opening weekend - CNN.com

$641.8 million worldwide already and $30 million more in its opening weekend than the previous record holder!! I saw it for my 3rd time yesterday and it was just as awesome as the first time. It was definitely worth the years of waiting for this to be properly done.

Re: Avengers Movie

Easily the best Super Hero movie I have ever seen. I sure hope the next one is at least half as good as this one.

Re: Avengers Movie

I am still hoping for the Justice League equivalent. Certainly ought to be able to be done, but the Avengers was really several years in the making, with SHIELD tying the various superheroes together and hinting at the overall goal. I have a feeling if a JL movie is done, it will be much more rushed, and far less effective.

Probably so. I didn't watch the Green Latern with Ryan Reynolds, so I don't know how good that movie was, but the last Superman movie was extremely boring to me. So, I'd think they'd need to do a couple of reboots for those characters (well at least superman I can speak of) before they'd try a Justice League movie.

Lets just say the Superman was much better then the Green Lantern movie, that should tell you all you need to know about the Green Lantern movie.
