Avengers movie discussion (news/etc.)

[hero020]

The real best part of that was that Hulk smiled after!!

Agreed

Tee hee hee! *geekgasm*

Big time. I have not been this psyched for a movie in a while.

I like the calmness, he's a leader dispatching an order, there's no room for emotion.

Maybe...but in the comics it's always "AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111" like he's leading them into battle.

He only says "AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!!!!!!!!" when he's referring too the whole team, where in the trailer he was just telling ONE enormously gamma radiated scientist to do what he does best and that is to smash.

What he means is the way he says "Avengers Assemble!" with the force in his tone.

yeah well, would you yell at the hulk?

Right. Jaggyd said that as a leader there was no room for emotion; I'm saying in the comic he does it all the time and it works pretty well.

Chalk it up to writers who gush on emotions.

Colbie Smulders was on Letterman tonight and there was a clip from the movie with her and Fury talking about evacuating SHIELD HQ.

I'm sure the clip will be on youtube and comic sites some time tomorrow morning/later today for those of us already on the East coast.

And here is said clip:

The "spin on" turn of phrase is very Whedon/FIREFLY-y. Me like.

 

[Drunken Pickle]

Looks like the alien army is confirmed to be

Spoiler

the Chitauri

New clip, too!

pro-tip: Spoiler tags don't show up in the sidebar.


But it looks like I was right. They wanted a goon army, so they more or less just picked an alien name out of a hat and ran with it. I'm fine with that, but it makes all that speculation about who they are all the more amusing.

[Drunken Pickle]

Most of those bands are terrible. The rest I haven't ever heard of. Except Soundgarden - I haven't heard the song yet and I'm crossing my fingers in hope that it's good. I loves me some Soundgarden.

Hahahahahaha. That's just awful.

I think it's hilarious that the Twilight movies of all possible media manage to have respectable soundtracks by indie artists while the new Avengers movie has a circa 2000 pop-metal/radio-post-grunge reunion tribute album.

That's just terrible.
