    Excited is not the word. Orgasm is the word that best describes my feelings about this movie. I am a die hard super hero fanatic. Now I'm thinking of Wolverine....

    I have the biggest crush on Wolverine!

    Hard to tell but I'm wearing my Wolverine shirt in this pic.

    This is my take on it. Its going to be like Thor. In my opinion Thor could have been a whole lot better but they had to do the whole back story first hence very little action. I think the Avengers will be that way as well. Telling the back story of each person and how they met and towards the end of the movie just like Thor they will end up beating a common foe and band together. Don't expect this one to be action packed. My guess is the second installment will more then likely be better.

    Trust me I hope I am really really wrong on this but this seems to be the trend with a lot of the superhero movies lately.

    Eh, I could see that a little bit but it's not like they haven't been building up to this since Iron Man. All I know is no matter what, it's going to be awesome.

    Is anyone else going to an early screening? I'm attending one next Saturday in Chicago and I can't wait!

    Also, from what I've read, it seems like everyone get's some one on one time fighting Loki. I can't wait!

    I might be likely to agree except that for all the clips I keep seeing (and I need to stop watching those) it looks like an action-fest. I just saw one released today where Black Widow really holds her own. I'm not going to say you're wrong, only that I'm hoping we're all pleasantly surprised.

    Hell they spent 5 whole movies introducing these characters. I think we're ready to see them in action.

    Here's hoping.

    ^Go check Youtube. Marvel's The Avengers - Clip 1

    I was very impressed.
  • I can't believe there's less than a month now! I've been counting down for almost a year! I hyperventilate every time I watch a trailer, I can't imagine what I'll be like in the movie!

    I wouldn't sweat it. I personally love the movie treatment the superhero mythos. My favorite part of let's say Spiderman was him discovering his abilities.

    However every one of the major characters (Though with Joss you know Black Widow is going to end up saving everybody's *kitten*, hell I wouldn't be shocked if she ends up backhanding The Hulk.) origins story has been told. They already set up how they are invited into the avengers. From the trailer I see them playing out the internal conflicts in the Characters. (I'm personally dying to see how Iron Mans / Thors Ego play off each other), but re-rehasing the back story? Nah I doubt it. Don't worry, it's going to be awesome on top of awesome.

    /Please oh God do not Suck.

    I admit I will watch anything with Joss Whedon's name on it. I'm hoping he does this movie as well as I think he can!
