Impact Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 its just he wouldn't of gotten so many things they said. I also loved how RDJ always called him "old man" when he is probably the oldest (though Sam might be older) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMovieman Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 (edited) The Avengers 11:00am - 75% full Trailers: Battleship - Not much of a reaction Prometheus - It was so loud I couldn't tell, but I think the audience were intrigued Brave - Some general interest esp. since it's from Pixar The Expendables 2 - Some chuckles (in a good way) when Schwarzenegger was shown) Frankenweenie - Some general laughs from kids The Amazing Spider-Man - No reaction The Dark Knight Rises - Absolute silence throughout (heard a kid quietly exclaim "Batman!" halfway through, though) As for the movie, general reaction was good, though no clapping until the end of the teaser scene from a couple of those who were left.

Harpospoke Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Avengers 7 May 4:30pm showing Trailers: TDKR TASM Brave Frankenweenie Battleship Small crowd so didn't hear any reaction to anything. Theater located in a suburb 30 screen multiplex. Avengers showing on 9 screens. About 25% full. Lots of latecomers. Theater was empty 30 minutes before showtime. Audience laughed in all the right places. Had two people walk out about 15 minutes into the movie...that was weird. Those who stayed seemed to enjoy it a lot. Most stayed for the after-credits scenes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Stitzer Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Marvel's The Avengers in LieMAX 3D 8:10PM Monday, May 7th AMC Boston Common 19 & LieMAX Theater Capacity: 654 (100%; almost entirely college-age students) Ticket Price: Free Golden Ticket + $6 IMAX-3D surcharge Concessions: n/a TRAILERS: Expendables 2 - "I'm back!" That Arnold quote immediately energized the audience. Great reaction, great trailer, and lots of talking from the audience. End of Watch - First-person crime drama starring Jake Gyllenhaal and company. Does look like Training Day and also got a lot of people talking. The Dictator - this trailer works with a lot of audiences, especially the helicopter bit at the end. LOL-reaction and lots of talking from the audience. The Dark Knight Rises - the trailer got total silence and commanded the undivided attention of seemingly every person in the audience; perfect reaction. The Amazing Spider-Man - this footage looks exceptional in 3D and on the big screen. I even heard several different people say "Wow!" toward the end of the trailer. Prometheus - best trailer ever, but it got a mixed reaction from people. Frankenweenie - the footage looks great (I'm a fan of dark stop-motion pictures), but this story seems a little too weird. Got some talking from the audience. THE FILM: The Avengers lives up to all of the build-up. The superheroes are given equal time in the spotlight; the 143-minute runtime moves at a proper pace; the story effectively makes use of the material set forth in the previous Marvel films (Spider-Men aside); and the spectacle achieves the epic proportions everyone hoped for. The film direction is applaudable--as widely publicized, The Avengers is superbly directed by a comic fan who does justice to the beloved material. Even after a post-production 3D conversion, the special effects employed in this film are among the finest I've seen in any movie. While Transformers: Dark of the Moon had its 40 minutes of eye candy as robots tore apart downtown Chicago and set a standard for special effects destruction of a downtown, Avengers brings it to a whole new level. I really couldn't tell if they shot some of these scenes over a green screen or on location; the aesthetic detail was that fine. There was a single sequence among the action toward the end that highlighted all of the different characters battling the villains that had every person in my row on the edge of their seat. Every actor/actress fittingly brought their A-game to this spectacular feature. As if their physical prowess wasn't impressive enough, the most surprising quality about Avengers was how funny each person was. Every character had a laugh-out-loud funny line or physically comical scene. And still, there were scenes of vulnerability for each of them that stressed the principles of the hero's journey--that our heroes must come close to failure before they can successfully overcome oppression. Everything about this movie was executed beautifully, and the sentiment was shared among my co-audience members. Each of my friends and I had a different favorite hero from the movie, which I felt reflected the equal screen time and awesomeness given to each character. I will most likely check this out a second time while it's still in theaters, and I highly recommend others check this out in 3D or IMAX (or even LieMAX). Visually, this is the most beautiful film to be released in 2012. Experience - 30/30 Story/Writing - 20/20 Acting - 15/15 Tech Specs (Cinematography, Editing, Effects) - 15/15 Direction - 10/10 Music - 8/10 Bonuses - Special Effects Caliber, 5; Award-caliber- 5 (This definitely earned Oscar nominations in every single tech category, and I'd even argue that Mark Ruffalo delivers an award-worthy supporting performance as Bruce Banner) THE VERDICT: 108/100, A+ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha i cant believe it took this longI didn't know what the reference was from initially (I Googled it afterwards ), but I still found it funny in the sense that Cap may not be from this time, but unlike Thor, he's from Earth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goffe Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 (edited) The Avengers 2D 180 seats - 55% full 16:20 Cuiaba - MT - Brazil Trailers Prometheus - Nothing, Silence Brave - Great response, tons of laughs **This trailer is different from the third trailer released, has a few different scenes in the beginning and when it starts playing that song in the end of third trailer, is completely different, with different music and new scenes. The Movie The movie is a perfect blockbuster. The people wanted to see a group of heroes in action. This isn't the best blockbuster or the best movie, Only one movie that fulfills the dreams of millions of people by showing a group of superheroes defending the Earth (not very brightly I must say) Pros - excellent performances, the group has an excellent chemistry - Some good Scenes - Special Effects ARE PERFECT Cons - Joss Whedon done some good scenes, but the bad ones are that I most remenber, because they are in more quantity. - the dialogues are cheesy - the script has many flaws - The soundtrack is terrible, - The heroes are invincible and too much incredible, taking the tension of the scenes of action and emotion. It was the second time I watched and this movie definitely lost much of its shine. There are many others examples of best superhero movies. 7.5 B Edited May 10, 2012 by Goffe Rises 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
