    my buddy Jason has all of us coworkers on his windows phone, such that we all show up as our own revolving tiles with our photos and status updates on FB. To load that up he clicks a tile on his homepage called "The Avengers". So literally he has us assemble, on his phone. I've been seriously outnerded here, wth do I do?

    We're going to need a DeLorean, flux capacitor and some plutonium. Then you're gonna see some serious ****. :D Wrong franchise but still.......

    Seen the trailer there which is titled as Avengers Assemble...seems to be a lot of interchanging between the two.

    Nice. Can see Whedon's touch through out that scene.

    Considering we are going to get stuck with the UK DVD/Blu-ray, they should probably just call it Avengers Assemble here as well to avoid confusion.

    Did anybody notice the Thor and Captain America Blu Rays were pulled ? I tried to buy them in HMV and was told that they are not going to stock them for another few months .

    Didn't notice this, I think they are on TV over the next few week though. I am guessing them pulling them means Avengers dvd around Sept/October and a complete box set in time for Christmas.

    That widow clip is great. Scarlett is still putting in the great work she put in with the choreography she did in iron man. Suppose joss is good at one thing its making women serious arse kickers with finesse.

    I managed to deduce all that from that clip while watching boobs giggle and her red head *swoon*

    I like it, thy never bothered making him look like Banner in either of the other films. He never looked like Banner in the books either though I suppose.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,370 ✭✭✭Colmo52


    Its because Ruffalo is playing Hulk through mo-cap. First time they've done that.

    The hulk was all mo-cap in the Ang Lee one, don't know about the other one. Although I don't Eric bana did it himself. Pretty sure i remember Lee doing it in some behind the scenes footage.

    i meant that its the first time that the actor playing the hulk is doing it.

    Yea i get you, they've probably used that face recognition stuff they always use for Andy Serkis in a few of his roles like Planet of the Apes and LOTR. Definitley wasn't used in the other hulk movies afaik.

    Just ****ing shoot her, she's ****ing slow.... useless henchmen. That scene reminds me why I hated her action scenes in IM2, overly choreographed nonsense.:D

    Pestering Omniplex at the moment about midnight showings. Fingers crossed they'll have some. Also a marathon of all the previous films would be great but doubtful I'd say. If anyones interested try them on twitter @omniplexcinema

    Love this clip its got Buffy written all over it. You could imagine some vampires standing in front of her and taking the piss out of them. Giles could have been on the other end of the phone listening plus she breaks the chair and it looks like she picks up a stake ha! Can't wait for this movie!:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,988 ✭✭✭constitutionus


    gotta admit i was always gonna go see this but im starting to think itll be really good now !

    :)

    the characters seem to interact really well with each other. the cap hulk thing for instance really got me buzzing and that black widow clip really did scream whedon.

    if they can keep the vibe going it could be a blinder.


  • Registered Users Posts: 157 ✭✭icarus86


    Cant wait for it now, really hope it lives up to the hype!

    Watching that clip made me realise something: I don't give a fig about the actual Avengers, I'm most looking forward to seeing Agent Coulson in action. His dry, sarcastic & deadpan ass-kickery is so much enjoyable than the OTT, over-choreographed antics of the superheroes. I think there's something wrong with me :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,746 ✭✭✭✭Galvasean


    He is a great addition to the cast IMO.

    I hope he really gets to shine in this. He's whats tied all the other films together(apart from Cap), more so than Fury even.

    Much more so I'd say. Fury generally only appears when the movie is over where Coulson plays an active role throughout (Captain America notwithstanding for the obvious reason that he had yet to be born).

    Coulson is great, his line delivery is brilliant.
    "Is that one of Stark's?"
    "I dunno he never tells me anything"

    i think they are releasing too much in the tv spots. every time a big movie comes up we are inundated with spots and clips from the movie weeks and days before its release. im avoiding these. the trailers are enough

    Tis true, would have liked to not have seen that Hulk smash bit until I was watching the movie. The Cabin in the Woods TV spots have been ridiculous too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,115 ✭✭✭✭Nervous Wreck


    I also haven't watched any of the TV spots. I've been shown too much by the trailers tbh.

    Watched the 1st two trailers then no more, Made that mistake with Ironman 2 when i was in the cinema and realised i'd almost seen it all


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,746 ✭✭✭✭Galvasean


    Yeah, no more TV spots for me either. Seen enough to know I want to see the film!
