The Avengers

Well, it sounds like Marvel finally found someone they enjoyed working with in the Hulk role. The last two guys didn't go over so well. I don't know if they'll continue with a standalone Hulk movie series. I've heard there's a TV series in the works, which could put the brakes on a movie. I'm sure Hulk could always return for an Avengers sequel, though.

Apparently the US release of the movie is going to include a second post credits scene. It seems this may be the scene filmed the night of the premiere, which was mentioned a few posts back.

So I just watched The Avengers last night and it was awesome. While, in my opinion they could have chose someone better to play Bruce Banner, he did do a good job. But the one thing that I am a little disappointed about it what they did with the Hulk, They made him take on more of a comic relief role than anything else, one minute he'd be there, doing what he does best, then the next he'd do something funny to cut the tension, and while I think it did work, I feel as if it was unnecessary.

But aside from that it was a really good movie, and yes, they did have a small scene after the credits which was actually pretty funny. They seemed to have a knack in this movie for saying one thing, and later on after you almost forgot about it, turn it into a joke which would make you laugh. And they did leave it open for a sequel, I think it should be pretty good if they can get the same cast back together.

And as for sequels to other movies, I know of two for sure, that being Iron Man 3, and Thor 2.

"The Avengers" is doing some super good business and breaking box office records like magic!! $200.3 Million in the USA alone for the first three days and the first weekend!!!!!!

While I think that some of these sums may be very over the top for any job, even Hollywood actors, I really have to hand it to Downey Jr. for turning his life around since being in jail and becoming as successful as he now is. If anyone deserves it, he does!

Avengers has been out now for a few weeks and it continues to remain in the #1 spot, even defeating the newly released "Battleship" movie starring Liam Nelson and "Dark Shadows" movie starring Johnny Depp:
