The Avengers (2011)

Started by roughrider43 pages

Loki will have made some alliances, and have an army ready to go.

From one brief shot in the trailer, it looks like Thor might get possessed (look at him bringing the hammer down on Cap) and maybe Banner - brought to the team as an adviser, perhaps - has to Hulk out to stop him? That would be a fun twist.

Thor isn't possessed, based on the evidence at hand (ie the Avengers movie video game where the Avengers were fighting Skrulls) one of them is likely a Skrull.

Joss Whedon is'nt Micheal Bay....

No, he isn't but Joss Whedon has very few feature films and snappy dialogue (which wears thin ala Buffy) or the very average Serenity actually means Bay has produced better quality. The trailer seemed, I don't know... very transformers, I mean what was new in it? I really wanted to see the Avengers assemble....

Sure, Serenity wasn't that great but it was still quite good. Furthermore, his other movies/TV shows rock and to say he is worse than Bay is a blatant lie.

Didn't Serenity beat out Starwars to win io9's best sci-fi movies of all time tournament? Regardless, Serenity is an amazing movie, it's not Blade Runner but it is easily one of the top 10 sci-fi movies of all time.

Thor attacking cap i cant wait to see this 7 more months to go i havent seen the trailer but does thors hammer hit cap shield?

Hmmm

-Cause it is better than the original Planet of the Apes, Gattaca, Logans Run, Rollerball, Scanners, The original Day the Earth stood still, the original Time Machine, Forbidden Planet, The Thing, Alien, Aliens, Matrix etc etc ad infinitum. It's an O.K. Space Western, which is pretty derivative tbh.

All matter of opinion, but I loved the OG Time Machine. Def. in my top 5 of sci fi movies.

JMO, but I think at some point Loki will mind control the Hulk so he can fight The Avengers

What about

2001, Close Encounters, Robocop, 12 Monkeys, Faranheit 451, The Omega Man, Westworld, hell even ET, seriously it's a dubious top 50 film at best.

Looking forward to this movie 😄

If you are going to sock, you should at least use a character from a different tv show for your screen name. And this list (and the last one) of sci-fi movie greats you've come up with is laughable. Omega Man? Charleston Heston cheese fest. The Matrix? A second rate Dark City rip off stretched into three movies. Faranheit 451? I like Ray Bradbury's books as much as the next guy, but come on. You haven't even mentioned Metropolis or Solaris and you are already reaching.

I don't know what the appeal of 2001 is, Sends me to sleep watching that movie.

Don't bash the Planet of the Apes on my time Srank. Serenity is worse than some sequels of PotA.

Serenity is better than all the Apes movies combined even without the Burton one stinking up the joint and lowering the average. 😎
