HOLY SHIT.
More links from around the web!
the video doesnt show anything... just the springboard logo. Anybody else having this problem?
Such old news Rob. You should move to NZ where we were squeeeeing in delight in full HD at the premiere on your...Monday night. Just rubbing it in. GREAT MOVIE!!!!
I got a car commercial. I tried three times and got three different car commercials. Oh, Topless Robot...you incredible whorish tease.
Judging from the comments, it's someone who was speculated on for a while. Video isn't working for me :(
AAAAGGGHHHH!! That is awesome. I knew that was going to happen. I just don't get it. How can Marvel have their crap so together when it comes to making Marvel movies and DC which owns the rights, all the distribution and everything about their characters cannot get but a couple of descent Batman movies out. Does anyone understand that? Plus we have had one modern day Superman movie and no Supervillian. We baby's daddy Superman. They threw a kid in before they threw in a supervillian.
I hope Avengers 2 is just Thanos trying to court Death. He shows up with flowers, but she's not impressed. He slaughters half the universe, she sorta looks his way.
Makes sense because Kevin Feige wants to take the Marvel U cosmic. He said Inhumans and/or Guardians of the Galaxy are next on the slate.http://www.craveonline.com/fil...
Wait..what just happened at the end?? I know who it was but..I didn't really hear anything
So pretty much my hopes for seeing DC films build up to Darkseid has been trumped by Marvel doing it with their Darkseid. Wonderful. Nice job, DC. You've had a media conglomerate as a parent company for longer and you're nowhere near as organized in your films as Marvel.
I've been saying have Superman slowly build to confront Darkseid in a third film with the New Gods or even a JLA movie with them. Yet nooooooo... DC can't do shit with their movies. And don't get me started on their shit TV shows.
Screw it.. I wanna see..
Wait.. to challenge Earth is to court death. So that means they'll leave us alone, right? What kinda smirking madman would lust for death like th... oh... ooooooooooh.
I felt a great disturbance in the Force. As if millions of nerd voices suddenly cried out "Dark Knight who?" and were suddenly orgasmic.
This movie is going to kick so much ass at the box office that Marvel is already pre-emptively firing Joss Whedon as the director of the sequel!!
I'm shocked at 1) How god damn excited I was for that after all (NNNNNGH!) and 2) How good he looked after all! As to who it is supposed to be?!?!? THAt's NOt for me to Say ...
Since Thanos is going to be in Avengers2.........are we going to also see Adam Warlock??!!!!
Holy shit balls!
He smiled when they said to fight them would be death! Are we going to see Death in the future? This is awesome!
FUCKIN AWESOME .....
NOW GET ME MY NIGGA T'CHALLA and ill be happy oh and REPLACE COLBY as FURY's Second with GABBY UNION OR MEAGAN GOOD (a super cute black chick)
Nice how some little kid said "Daddy" something-something around the middle there. I'd hate to have been sitting within earshot of that kid.
I know, it's so god damn annoying when parents try to share their love of nerdy things and expand the boundaries or our cultural niche! Fuck you, parents, for wanting to share things with your children!
You really don't get it, do you? Are you also one of those people who are onboard with the theater executives who want to give texters the green light during screenings? At least counter me with something sensible and strong, not some flimsy, exaggerated slice of illogic.
I can understand, but I don't. As I said, I don't find any problem with distractions and having to bear with other people's quirks and behaviors in a theater. It isn't a giant version of my living room and, certainly, when it comes to a film with hundreds of millions of dollars involved in its production and advertisement, I have little control over the type of audience it will draw. If I, or you, want to have that much control and enjoy a film in perfect silence, then it's something to do at home. But for me, the theater isn't a place where I can expect or demand silence or an undisturbed experience. If you can have that, then perhaps you have the luck of primarily visiting a theater that eagerly pursues and caters an audience that wants to treat every film like a hushed art exhibit, but me, I have no delusions about that and, honestly, don't see how anyone has grounds to complain or be annoyed.
And, still, you don't understand. Annoying is annoying, whether it's coming from a kid speaking (or crying, or whining, or whatever the case may be), a person texting throughout, a person talking on their phone throughout, etc.
Your previous rant about someone keeping a nerdy adult from introducing their kid to nerdy fare is irrelevant. That is why you don't understand.
I'm inclined to think that you didn't get it. That was a joke, and to be perfectly honest, I'm not inclined to complain about the experience in a movie theater. When I go to watch a film, it's often about the environment and spending time with friends, family, or "someone close", so there's a good chance that I'll be distracted with murmuring, listening to someone's comment, or just responding to something dumb I overhear. It's what I expect and, to some extent, enjoy when I go to watch a movie. If I want to be lost in just the movie itself, I'm going to buy it and watch it at home, where I have full control of the experience. I don't expect and, frankly, don't want that at a theater, especially at a movie that seems designed to coax people to react visibly and audibly, which is what blockbusters are meant to do with the loud noises, the frenetic pace, and the excess of effects and cues. They are meant to create visceral moments, and, now, the industry, at least when it comes to films that cost hundred of millions of dollars and flirt with being truly billion-dollar productions, is focused on encouraging those moments. It makes sense to allow people to text about those moments as they happen, because they're fully lost in the moment, thoughtless, and just saying, "OMFG i just saw...". Yet, even with that marketing tactic aside, I'm still not inclined to give people shit about being excited about movies, especially kids. One, because it seems like nerd-love is pretty easily transmitted from parent to child (the love of Star Wars and Trek seems partially rooted in this) so it guarantees there is always going to be a crowd of people who are willing to pay money so talented people actually want to bother making interesting nerdy things; and two, it's genuinely beautiful and fun to see a little kid become lost in an amazing moment and say or do something because they are inspired, whether it's to exclaim out loud and have a little kid moment, like when my niece cried because Baby Godzilla got turned into a space crystal, or when, after you come back, you see them laying on the floor and drawing. It's a beautiful thing in the abstract and, in reality, I hope when I have children, I can keep those bonds with my own kids. I think those are probably the ties that will keep us relatively close, even when they are awkwardly independent throughout their teenage years. So having to wince at them screaming, laughing, or asking questions through a movie isn't a small price, but one of those things I'll probably remember fondly. Now, it's something I'm willing to cut slack for because the theater makes watching a movie a social experience; the experience helps to insure that future nerdiness exists; and because little kids are pretty damn awesome in the abstract and when they happen to include my/your/some-specific-person's genetic material. I don't think any of that is illogical.
Saw it on opening night--yes, im in one of the ten countries that Christmas, I mean The Avengers, came early to--and needless to say it was well worth the price of admission. Even only for the final battle.
I think I have facial burns from the sheer amount of awesomenessssess on screen that night.
In retrospect however, it's kinda disheartening to realize that as good as The Avengers movie is, Marvel will need to make the expected sequel as good as this one, if not better, just to keep the flame burning, so to speak.
Any idea who that is under all that makeup? You'd think they'd get a big name for one of the key baddies of the MU.
Note to any DC movie-makers in the future: Darkseid needs to be ten times this awesome.
that sound u hear MIKE , is crickets chirping
since we are only gonna be getting BAT AND SUPES nonstop for the next 10 years >__>
unless you count the LOBO MUSICAL staring ABRAXAS in a speedo
ha ..i love how when the skrull says "is to qoute death" thanos gets a boner..ha ha..awesome only for the real comic geeks..
I saw it on Wednesday. It was GLORIOUS.I won't say anything else until you've seen it.
Did anyone else get any other rumoured 'credits scene' or just this one? I got this one after the animated credits and waited all the way until the end of the regular credits for nothing...
I guess nothing came of that scene Downey Jr said they were shooting last week...
Hopefully I've been sufficiently vague so as not to be any kind of a spoiler. Just don't waste your time hanging around right until the end basically!
