May 4, 2012 Weekend (AVENGERS Opening Discussion): ACTUAL 207.4 mill!!!!

Well, obviously *now* its a little trickier. I mainly was referring to the initial set-up films. But still, maybe I'm alone here, but I think Cap and Thor could use some more development on their own. Especially the former since he's kind of the intended star of the Avengers and he takes a back seat to Stark in Whedon's film.(Not a complaint, either, just an observation.)

I noticed that as well. I'm guessing the original script had a lot more of Cap adjusting to the modern day, but they didn't want the movie to focus too much on him as that is a big storyline on its own.I'd imagine they are saving it for Cap 2, where it will fit much better.

[ddddeeee]

BTW who was it that said TA would be 'through Cap's eyes'? That didn't happen at all.

It would be really cool if The Avengers pulled off a 80,70,50 to get to 200m similar to how Spider-Man 3 practically did 60,50,40 to get past 150m.

Whedon's first cut was 3 hours long with character developpement.He cut more than 40 minutes of footage.Some will appear on the blu ray as a bonus, not as a director's cut. Edited May 5, 2012 by The Futurist

Hulk would definitely benefit the most from TA, so whoever it is, Disney or Uni, need to get it started.

[Neo]

I think Whedon said will get 30 minutes of deleted scenes.

I like hearing that.

Gosh... Dark Shadows got the shaft. Its different enough to still find some kind of audience, but $100 million is feeling more and more impossible.

What opening do you expect for DS? I think it will still open decently, thank to Depp, but its legs will be butchered.

[blackspider]

Dude, you are going to love it. The Hulk especially is incredible. If your screening ends up similar to mine, you'll get a TDK Joker vibe every time the Hulk decides to do something. His moments are THAT damn good. Huge cheers and laughter at my screening for him. The rest of the characters are also very good. The banter between them is hilarious.

Yeah and talking to people in the theater, WOM is insanely good. Everyone is coming out of the theater with huge smiles on their faces. What would you give it on a scale of 1-10?

[baumer]

I still don't have a Blu Ray player. I will next weekend. This movie is the reason for that.

I am sure every minute of it will be as awesome as the movie was.

Hulk's rogues gallery isn't very enticing, despite the fact they teased the Leader in the last Hulk movie.

The Avengers won't affect its legs since it's already opened. If anything, the opening will be lower and if it's a good film the legs will be better

I gave it a 9/10 but it is one of the most entertaining movies I've ever seen, and yes, Hulk is the best part of the movie. His dynamic with Thor is awesome and his "discussion" with Loki is freakin hilarious.

Can't rate it just yet. Need to see it multiple times before rating it. There are elements I don't like. Loki's costume is retarded. Sorry if that offends the fanboys, but it is. The first 10 minutes also bored the shit out of me.

[ddddeeee]

If anying TA proved why Hulk doesn't need a solo movie. More ensembles for Hulk.
