    why???
    Repetitive... Too much camera movement... reminded me of transformers on that front... too long... Felt like Thor part ii... and not well done at that.

    Strange that you would say that about thor cus on another fanboy forum I go on some people said they wished to see a little more thor, as if he was slighted a bit. Maybe that's just cus thor has a hardcore fan base though, or because he didn't make an appearance until like 45 minutes into the movie.

    Check out the Film Crit Hulk's article below on the way Banner/Hulk was done in The Avengers. I think it makes some good points.

    In case you're wondering how much screen time each of the Avengers got, check out the link below for that info. Hawkeye got the least while Captain America got the most time.

    How bold would it be to throw this guy his own movie and then put him the in avengers movies?

    Although it might be frowned upon at first by fans who want to see better known hero's I think it would be pretty smart from a movie making standpoint, tons of people are into wild west stuff and it can bring a whole new dimension to the movies. As long as Henry Pym gets in as well I would vote for this.

    haha I will but that has nothing to do with it. I'm just a huge fan of marvel comics and (to me at least) they did such a great job making the movie feel like a moving comic book. Maybe that's why I like it so much more than some of you guys? Cus it has such a comic book feel to it? I don't know and really I don't care I just know I love it and can't wait for more!

    This is kinda interesting.

    (From Article)
    You know all that military action that goes on in a lot of Hollywood blockbuster films?

    Well, the U.S. government usually likes to get involved to help filmmakers more realistically portray it.

    This was not the case with "Marvel's The Avengers." The U.S. Defense Department pulled out because they deemed the film too unrealistic. ( :ugeek: compared to the other very 'realistic movies they have been involved with hehehe)

    Perhaps it was the aliens. Or maybe it was the superheroes. Well, it was actually the ambiguity of secret military law-enforcement agency S.H.I.E.L.D., portrayed in the film, that did "Avengers" in.
