The Avengers- THEATRICAL TRAILER Discussion Thread

[raimar]

Same.

The Iron Man stuff may be just to get the general audience interested. Once you've got them in the theaters you hit them with all the characters.


this too sounds very plausible as an explanation of the focus on Iron Man/RDJ. But Thor does in fact look very secondary. Worrisome!

[raimar]

Loved the trailer. I'm really stoked for this film. Lot's of BIG shots that drew me in.

A couple of drawbacks .... I dunno, I love Scarjo but she's just so underwhelming and meager to me. I'm mixed about the Hulk all the sudden too. I do not like the sound effect for his voice, would've preferred the screams as heard in TIH. There was also something off-putting about his head shot when they're in their circle down on the street. However, yet clip of him catching Iron Man mid-air is pure win

BTW is that Thor getting blown back from laying the hammer down on Cap's shield? I'm surprised even vibranium would be sturdy enough to send him exploding back like that.

God I can't wait to see the inter-fighting. That scrum in the woods has the making of an epic comic royale rumble. Thor seriously looks even more like a God next to all these other heroes.

Again, something is not right with Thor's portrayal in the trailers. But, like someone here said, maybe he's holding back, and Marvel is saving the best for last. How the hell are they going to sell Thor 2 if he's lame and underpowered in this one.

Well, this is the Avengers, not Thor and the Avengers. I think Thor is obviously more powerful than either IM or Cap but during a fight you can't have Thor just wipe the floor clean against these two, because it won't be a fight otherwise. I think what's most important isn't to measure Thor's power level against the other two, but to show that despite their differences, they will unite as one to defeat their common enemies. This isn't Civil War.

[Bruce Banner]

I'm in Richmond too and I ran to my school library in the rainstorm, just to watch the trailer and I nearly died... it was worth it.

You were not the guy freaking out in the VCU Library were you?:word:

[Mrpaul]

Great trailer

[TheVileOne]

LOL always about power levels and all that nonsense.

Thor is trapped in the Hulk cage! He should be able to get out easily!

[mc7791]

this trailer is badass on a new level. All the effects and action look slick as hell and I cant wait to see it in the theaters. Some people are worried that Thor will not be portrayed as the powerhouse that he truly is because he gets attacked and knocked through a tree by Iron Man. I remember in the d23 interviews RDJ said that Thor does kick his ass in the film. This trailer shows a lot more but we still have not gotten that good a look at Lokis army. Another thing is at the end is that truly the Leviathan that is chasing Iron Man? or one of the alien ships because in the Superbowl spot we see the soldiers dropping from what looks to be that same creature/ship.

[Happy Jack]

I must be one of the few who didn't get much out of the trailer. It looked and felt very much like I was expecting it to, which is similar to a Michael Bay flick with superheroes. I can't really say that anything jumped out at me; a lot of it felt rather derivative. RDJ as Tony Stark was good as usual, though.

[Donut]

It's about time this got a good trailer. The fourth time is the charm

hey man, of course, and i guess not everyone is going to be happy with everything, but the gentleman above is right, a power feat, (1), would have been nice!

I really hope they're holding back because I felt they showed a bit too much action in the trailer. I would have liked it if they cut down a few seconds of Tony being chased by the aliens as well as the full scene of him traveling towards the portal then getting knocked down into Hulk's hands.

I loved the trailer and I know most final trailers tend to show a **** ton of the action, but I wish they showed faster cuts to save more for when we see it in the theater.

[KILLING JOKER]

I have been extremely skeptical up to this point. Not a fan of the director and have felt very let down by everything I've seen. Until now. This trailer had depth, drama, some real tension and emotion and the epic images I've been waiting for. As someone mentioned the scene with the 3 of them in the field, Hulk catching Iron man and Captain America walking inbetween Hawkeye and Black Widow. This trailer got me really excited and brought out the kid in me. I nearly teared up.

[Guerrilla]

.
I think that scene is cut with another scene. When ironman collides with the alien ship, he us flying straight up parallel with that beam/portal thing. Yet, rught before hulk catches him, he is falling still but with nothing close to an invading army or beam/portal anywhere. Maybe its just a different angle and the beam thing is behind the camera. But they dont seem to quite match up..other than of course ironman falling.

I can't really say that anything jumped out at me; a lot of it felt rather derivative. RDJ as Tony Stark was good as usual, though.

This is exactly what I got out of the trailer. Specifically the bold. And for some reason, for me at least ... Captain America (especially in that suit), Jermey Renner's character and Thor all look so un-intentionally cheesy in a live action film. I just can't get around it.

i was just about to say that...
thor doesnt want to hurt mortals and probably underestimated IM and cap....
I am sure whedon will show his full form at the final battle...
btw i am worried that there are no decent shots of thor flying in the trailer(, apart from him landing on quinjet, which does not show whether he flies like IM)
wat if he just finished off leviathan with a single blow..?

no way, that Leviathan will probably be one of the Avengers biggest challenges..no way it gets wiped out with a couple of blows from Mjolnir..they're going to have to work to take that thing down

I think some people forget how much of a powerhouse Thor is, he's one of Marvel's most powerful superheroes point blank period.

[Harley2004]

I think the CGI looks much better than that. Also, in terms of story they gave hints, with Fury and Loki's exchange, I liked that Fury basically told him we're $#!tting our pants, it's not something you'd expect from a hero in a typical action movie, much less a trailer. Also plenty of lines about the friction within the team. I trust Joss Whedon to give us a good story and let every character have their time to shine, he's done it on Buffy, Angel and Firefly. Plenty of episodes show most of the main characters having their "hero moment" in the same 45 minute episode. He knows how to work with a big cast.

I think the cgi looks pretty good, thats not what I was talking about. I just meant the movie itself looks like mindless action, like a video game or Transformers. I agree about whedon, he has done very well on tv. It's not him I am worried about, its marvel.

You fail to understand how/why it's being marketed in trailers .... more action is going to put butts in the seats for people expecting superhero moments. If they do drawn out character exposition in the trailer, it will deter more than help.

Everyone on the planet knows Whedon can do dialogue. You'll get it so stop worrying your little heart out over nothing.

Of course he is..but u cant possibly have all of Thors power on display in this movie. He almost has to be depowered a bit from his comic version or u risk running into the Superman conundrum without the get-out-of-jail-free card that is kryptonite. Seriously, if Thor was to take out something that massive and threatening THAT easily, he should not need all these guys to handle Loki and his minions

Oh no I don't think Thor should be able to take it out easily, but I do think Thor should be able to take one out using the full extent of his power (with help).

Like I said before, what's the point of being a powerhouse if you don't get to do things other members can't do.

and it still annoys me that marvel studios have yet to show his true potential...

I wouldn't say that, I think Thor's overall power level in THOR was respectable I just wish he had some strength feats, I do fear that they've underpowered him somewhat in this film though.

They power down Thor in most mediums where he's teaming up with other heroes. They just create **** that's on par with or higher on the spectrum power wise than he is. It is possible.

[Spider-Fan]

In regard to Thor being depowered, I am not so sure that is true. But, Thor also can't be so uber powerful, nothing can hurt him or everything is easy. For this film to work, the threat must be greater than he is. So, seeing Thor tossed around a bit is necessary.

[bonzob2000]

It's weird where people choose to draw the line when it comes to "believability."

Tony Stark basically has invented a highly sophisticated artificial intelligence and has a giant hole in his chest... believable.

Thor is a God from another planet/realm but speaks perfect English... believable.

Bruce Banner expands into a giant green monster with an indestructible waistband when he gets angry... believable.

Captain America was frozen in a block of ice for fifty years and survived with no lasting side effects... believable.

Hawkeye and Black Widow are going to fight off aliens with a pair of guns, a quiver of trick arrows, and the finest training on the planet... COMPLETELY UNBELIEVABLE. MOVIE RUINED.

It's all part of the same suspension of disbelief required for any comic book film.

[xeno000]

I just got to see the trailer a little while ago and I am completely blown away. It was so awesomely mind-blowing that my entire vocabulary was reduced to "Holy ****!" If the trailer alone has me this excited, my head will literally explode when I see the movie in IMAX on May 4th.

[Silvermoth]

I don't know why people keep saying the Black Widow just has her guns and training. She also has her Widow's Bite. An electrical charge that powerful in the right spot could shut down a fair amount of machinery.

I liked the trailer. I didn't like how the Black Widow said she would persuade Banner to leave. It was a bit Felicity Shagwell. But I liked the trailer. I especially loved the ending.

[xeno000]

But if they had a lifetime supply of krypnote and yellow hand towels they could sure as hell take down the rest of the JLA if need be. :dry:


And Hawkeye just needs a lasso or some handcuffs to take out Wonder Woman since S&M is her kryptonite. Lamest. Weakness. EVAR!

God, I love that shot. It's like a panel from an Avengers comic book come to life. I've been waiting to see this on the big screen ever since I was a lower-case x, and I can hardly believe it's almost here.

[raimar]

He didn't say a couple blows he said "one blow" and there's two Leviathan's so who's to say Thor can't finish one of them off?

I think some people forget how much of a powerhouse Thor is, he's one of Marvel's most powerful superheroes point blank period.


If you consider what he can do, all the things, he is indeed one of Marvel,s most powerful, if not THE Most powerful.

[raimar]

It's weird where people choose to draw the line when it comes to "believability."

Tony Stark basically has invented a highly sophisticated artificial intelligence and has a giant hole in his chest... believable.

Thor is a God from another planet/realm but speaks perfect English... believable.

Bruce Banner expands into a giant green monster with an indestructible waistband when he gets angry... believable.

Captain America was frozen in a block of ice for fifty years and survived with no lasting side effects... believable.

Hawkeye and Black Widow are going to fight off aliens with a pair of guns, a quiver of trick arrows, and the finest training on the planet... COMPLETELY UNBELIEVABLE. MOVIE RUINED.

It's all part of the same suspension of disbelief required for any comic book film.
you're being ridiculously cruel with these kids! Please stop, Please,lol.

[Monsieur Xavier]

Great trealer.
I noticed few things ( of small importance ) :
- the "metalic" sound/music at the begining of the trailer is almost the same as the "Transformers" sound.
- Hawkeyes is mute, he is the only one without a line in the trailer ( or I missed it ).

[Godzilla2000]

i hope whedon knows that the serpent is a big enough threat to last at least 6min battle...

Not if you have less than 16 people to hunt it with you. It'll be an even longer battle. Didn't you know that you need about that many people to quickly hunt a Raviente Subspecies?

[Shadowlord X]

It is the single most beautiful scene in comicbook superhero movie history bar none.

I could stare at it for hours.

My God look at the size of Chris Hemsworth's pythons in that picture. They put Loki's giant snake to shame. :o

I agree! Even for his own movie, I didn't think he was gonna fly or spinning his hammer, because they never release any clips!

But boy!! Was I mistaken....and glad to be wrong!!

With Loki being the villain, Thor is gonna throwdown! :thor:

It's like when THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN came out....so many people were upset that they had a car to drive around in. Nemo having a nuclear submarine was ok....but a car was just too much.

[Godzilla2000]

Was that Fin Fang Foom????? :wow:

I'm going to have to to go Loki's giant serpent. (God, it turns me on just to type that.) I'm thinking he made that himself with his own magic.

[Shazam]

Just one little nit pick, that's got me scratchin' my head.

Why is Bruce Banner dressed like a professor on GQ magazine, apparently still on the run, in the middle of nowhere, when the Widow is sent to bring him in???

He's got on a sport coat??? Seriously?? :woot: And some nice slacks, too. LOL!!

The last time we saw Banner, he was basically a hobo on the run. Denims and a wrinkled shirt at best....which makes perfect sense.

I hope they can explain this. I would loved to have had Banner found in a cave or something.

lol..yeah i was gonner say the same thing. Banner has always looked hobo-ish, while on the run. Scraggly hair, unshaven, baseball cap, scruffy shoes, dirty jeans..the works. He looks like a CEO or something in the trailer..haha

[T"Challa]

So Hawkeye's just gonna act like he didnt fall off a 800+ft building, cuz frankly he doesn't look very concerned :hehe:

[Nokio]

*snort*

LOL! Like Black Widow or Hawkeye could take down the rest of the Avengers if need be.

I don't think anyone is even saying that. Please don't be childish. Black Widow and Hawkeye has been an integrel part of the Avengers for decades. I just find it odd to see so many complain about core members. It's not like either of them are obscure Avengers that Marvel put on the teams a way to be cost effective, even though they are cost effective these are individuals that has been part of Avengers history as long as I've been reading comics.

I don't think I ever heard any complaints about Batman on board the JLA and the man has no powers what so ever save for his gadgets. He would function no better against A Darkseid then Widow or Hawkeye against a Thanos. But of course with prep time he'll beat him, give me. Break. I'll give bats credit, I think he's better skilled then both of his non powered Marvel counterparts but it stops there.

[Hunter Rider]

I've never really understood why it matters who is the most powerful, great heroes often overcome the odds, it's why they are heroes.

I think this was explained at the d23 footage, isnt he workin as a doctor?

[Ajendo]

Epic trailer! Loved Hulk saving IronMan.

[Blue Sugar]

Trailer is very cool and the film looks entertaining to the max, but also kinda shallow.

[xeno000]

I think this was explained at the d23 footage, isnt he workin as a doctor?


Yes, Banner is running a clinic in India and taking cash payments from patients. He can afford a shabby jacket or two.

[Ajendo]

Some people act like they're expecting Gone with the wind with this movie. It's absurd and baffling. It's an action movie based on an ensemble cast of comic book superheroes; a premise as far removed as reality as you can get and some people are still complaining?? Pathetic.

[Mikelus]

Trailer is very cool and the film looks entertaining to the max, but also kinda shallow.

What is shallow is to judge a movie before seeing it first. ;)

I trust Whedon to deliver a very good movie, he wrote the script, his characters always have emotional depth, we'll see if that's the case with the Avengers.

[Stringer]

My only problem is the trailer really makes it seem like everything is just a buildup to the fight on the streets. I really hope the scale of the last fight is larger than what's been indicated so far. I hope the fight is in multiple phases like Return of the Jedi.

[Zimmy]

So Hawkeye's just gonna act like he didnt fall off a 800+ft building, cuz frankly he doesn't look very concerned :hehe:

I think it has been theorized that he is either a skrull or he is shooting some sort of zip line/grabble hook.

Agreed


Will it be some dark brooding thing that makes us all uncomfortable

no

it was never meant to be that though

[Godzilla2000]

I am really stoked about this movie now. This is a top notch trailer to whet your appetite with.

[L-J]

I've just got interesting note from the previous source (that gave us some details about upcoming trailer). He said that he saw a different cut of the trailer with new scenes in front of John Carter. Maybe it's the one that Alberta has recently classified "1:55".

[Raiden]

I think the battle will be centered in the city, but both IM and Thor (and maybe even Quinjet) will be tasked to fight the enemies like that leviathan we saw in the trailer in the sky, so we won't only get the ground fights.

[captainrogers]

Yeah I remember that description. This trailer was only off that by two scenes. (Tony shocks Bruce was one of them I think)

[WildcatNC]

I'm going to have to to go Loki's giant serpent. (God, it turns me on just to type that.) I'm thinking he made that himself with his own magic.

:funny:



I think its a ship. Thats also what we saw the "aliens" jumping off from in the other trailer.

[BLAQUE-SPIDERMAN]

Ok, now THAT'S what i'm talkin' 'bout baby!! That my friends, is how a summer movie blockbuster trailer is SUPPOSED to look! This trailer definitely shows that the Avengers movie will closely mirror its' cartoon counterpart, which is cool with me. And the Hulk looks GREAT! The scene of him saving Iron Man was straight from the comics! So much good stuff they showed in this new trailer, but i won't comment on it all because what i wanted to see made me smile: the Hulk! Wow, 2 more months until: "Avengers, Assemble!"

[Stringer]

I think the battle will be centered in the city, but both IM and Thor (and maybe even Quinjet) will be tasked to fight the enemies like that leviathan we saw in the trailer in the sky, so we won't only get the ground fights.
I'm hoping for Thor and IM leading the air attack with Jets and helicopters and Cap leading the ground attack with soldiers and tanks, but that's not the vibe I'm getting right now. Hopefully I'm wrong though

[Quasimod0]

Perhaps they were a bit hesitant to send out tanks into nyc. Or fury got the army to let him try out the avengers first, knowing that the army alone couldnt stop the aliens. We certainly havent seen enough to make assumptions about specific details like that. I'm sure it'll all make sense in the final film

[Stringer]

Perhaps there is a reason why the military response seems to be independent of what the Avengers are doing, but that's not my point. I'm just saying needing all of them work together would definitely add some more scale to the spectacle. But yeah, I could just be making one huge, fat wrong assumption. We'll see.

[spiderliam]

Any sign of a .MP4 version of the new trailer? Can't find one anywhere and i want to watch it in full quality on my PS3!

[Quasimod0]

Nothing would be more epic than captain america leading an army of soldiers. So i see what you mean

[DoomsdayApex]

I hate when people use Kryptonite against Superman, it's just so cheap and lame.

It comes from mediocre/lazy writing. I wish the writers just get rid of it, after all it was created for Superman decades later simply because Superman didn't have enough powerful foes. With General Zod, Doomsday, Brainiac, Darkseid, Lex Luthor (12th level genius), etc who needs Kryptonite nowadays? Get rid of it WB!

-----------

I'll admit, while Black Widow and Hawkeye are standing there with a 9mm and Crossbow next beings like Hulk and Thor, it does kinda recede their threat-level. YET, we have to keep in mind that Iron Man and Captain America are not exactly superpowered beings themselves.

Why does it matter if Black Widow and Hawkeye are powerless? Why doesn't anyone complain about Batman and Green Arrow?

Powers don't mean everything. I mean, take a look at what Batman singlehandedly did to Darkseid and the entire JLA. I'm sure Whedon added a few nice 'aces' for Widow and Hawk to exploit too.

[Shadowlord X]

Do people forget that Hawkeye is the world's greatest marksman? He may not be the most powerful character but at least he's guaranteed to hit his target every time.

And am I the only one who watched Iron Man 2?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzO9nPS3_4A
Besides her incredible fighting skills, Black Widow has more weapons than just a glock. I counted at least 6: electric discs, flash/smoke grenades, some type of wire, pepper spray, her bracelets and guns.

[Alexei Belyakov]

I can wait though for a better, less tacky poster.... but that's another issue ;)

Yeah, the poster was an epic fail.

On that note, can I summon the great graphic artists that lurk through the hype now to bring us some truly powerful Avengers posters?

Common guys, blow the studio's marketing department outta the water.

I'm going to have to to go Loki's giant serpent. (God, it turns me on just to type that.) I'm thinking he made that himself with his own magic.

Do you mean that to be the Midgard Serpent, or an entirely new serpent that Loki made up himself? Because I've seen one site say they think it's the former, and that would certainly pull from an established used Norse mythology character from Marvel continuity.

It is the single most beautiful scene in comicbook superhero movie history bar none.

I could stare at it for hours.

Most definately :up:

I've never really understood why it matters who is the most powerful, great heroes often overcome the odds, it's why they are heroes.

It matters quite a bit when your the quintessential powerhouse of a team, just like Cap's leadership abilities matter because he's the quintessential leader of the team.

Thanks for the link. The file is in .mov format, for Quicktime, though iTunes and WMP can play it, too.

[PowerPacked]

We should hear in a few days if Avengers beat the iTunes record again. They usually announce it at most a week afterwards, at least for Transformers 3, Avengers, and TDKR's trailers they did. If Avengers breaks it, it has the record in the bag, at least until TDKR's third trailer comes out, which should actually premiere with Avengers anyways, so. :awesome:

[warhorse78]

That would be great marketing. Like Mission Impossible 4, I think lots of people went to see that movie initially because of the TDKR trailer attached to it. If The Avengers does the same, could be an interesting to see how the true box office pans out.

[craigdbfan]

The sound of the hammers clanging against metal once Iron Man appears is awesome. I love that so much. :up:

[craigdbfan]

Yeah that song was banging. Seeing RDJ with that hair would be so badass.

[BigThor]

Yep it sure would be, especially if there's a scene of him creating a new armor while that song is playing in the background.

[ClarkLuther55]

Best trailer yet. Loved the "epic" music and the way this trailer hyped up the movie's war. Most of the Avengers members also got some of the spotlight, which was nice to see.

[BigThor]

Hawkeye still didn't speak, curse you MARVEL!!! :argh:

Just kidding, but I would've like to have heard Renner deliver atleast one sentence of dialogue.

[cherokeesam]

I think:
Maria Hill....Skrull.
Agent Coulson....Kree. (Mar-Vell rumor....look it up.)

[BigThor]

I don't like the idea of Coulson being Captain Marvel, but it is very possible from what I've been hearing.

[darkslayer101]

guys i just went to a John Carter pre-screening and heres ma short review

overall it is slightly better than avatar, the best parts was tailyor kitsch as JC( from the immortal words of SLJ, "he was one bad mutha..."), there were some cheesy parts but its was a great movie.
I would definitely want a sequel and i would watch it day 1
8.9/10

anyway, before the pre-screening i was hoping for the new avengers trailer to preimere but it actually showed the first theatrical trailer, and the most fun part was when the audience bust out laughing when RDJ gave his "genirus, billionaire...." line...
they even cheered and clapped more when the trailer ended and i am so glad to know that the general audience are likin it...

[BigThor]

Cool Darkslayer, I always had a feeling that John Carter was going to be a good film.

[Juicy J]

At this risk of sounding melodramatic, I still say this new Avengers trailer is the best trailer I've ever seen in my entire life.
I say that A) because I got chill bumps when watching it for the first time, due in part to the ridiculousness of the footage and how amazing the music was, which has never happened to me before, and B) because I posted this on facebook and people who I know had not even the slightest interest before commented on how excited they are now after watching that.
Seriously, SUCH an amazing trailer.

[captaintass]

It's like when THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN came out....so many people were upset that they had a car to drive around in. Nemo having a nuclear submarine was ok....but a car was just too much.

Reminds me of the majority of posters here regarding Captain America having red gloves and boots in his movie.

Guy with an animated RED skull face...cool.
Guns that shoot blue lasers that disintegrate people...absolutely.
Four-story tall tanks and a plane the size of an aircraft carrier...perfectly fine.

Captain America sporting red gloves and boots??? Are you INSANE? COMPLETELY unrealistic!

:doh:

for me the most trailer i was pumped for was IM2 but it did not blew my mind like the avengers second trailer did....maybe thats because the hype was not that high before the trailer came out...
anyway same opinion here...BEST TRAILER EVAR

[captaintass]

So Hawkeye's just gonna act like he didnt fall off a 800+ft building, cuz frankly he doesn't look very concerned :hehe:

Dude...grapple/claw arrow. I'm assuming it has some kind of a line attached to it...

Do you mean that to be the Midgard Serpent, or an entirely new serpent that Loki made up himself? Because I've seen one site say they think it's the former, and that would certainly pull from an established used Norse mythology character from Marvel continuity.

Oh I think it's most likely based on the Midgard serpent myth, but realized not as a giant snake but a mechanical one, similar to the technology that created the Destroy. As Thor had put it Asgard is a place where magic and science are one and the same. I'm sure that Loki is powerful enough to have created a magically controlled mechanical snake. I mean biologically large snakes are only realistically plausible in a Kaiju film.

[DACrowe]

My delayed thoughts:

I hope this puts to an end all those suggesting Whedon is "too TV" or doesn't have enough experience to capture the "scope" of The Avengers. This looks bigger than any Marvel film made to date.

Secondly, the best compliment I can pay the trailer is it looks like a comic book come to life. The last time I thought that about a movie was Spider-Man 2...well parts of Spider-Man 3 (a few of the action scenes, birth of Sandman/Venom, etc.), but it looks like the Marvel comics are literally brought to life in all their pop camp-culture glory.

Even if the marketing is a bit of a retread of a certain Bay-franchise, this looks much better and I'm very interested.

[The Morningstar]

I was wondering, is the music that starts after the shot of the big 3 in the woods just some trailer music or is it the actual Avengers theme? Because it's banging.

[BigThor]

It really is, I thought I was the only one who noticed that.

[The Morningstar]

It's got that proper iconic, "hummable" quality to it.

[BigThor]

Yes it does, I feel the same way.

[BigThor]

Yes it does, I feel the same way.

[WildcatNC]

This trailer exceeded my expectations honestly. It really is truly EPIC. I guess i have watched it about 25-30 times now.

[DOOZlovesBOOZ]

Yep. Question is, is anyone going to see John Carter? :oldrazz:

I might just to see it on a big screen, i will really have to think that one over tho. it is possible if i have absolutely nothing else better to do.

[sauronthegreat]

One thing that fascinates me about the trailer and this project overall is how much is held secret from us. It's a final trailer and yet we barely saw the main antagonist, or any hint of the story.

[Arcam]

What do you think Loki was refering to when he spoke of how desperate The Avengers or SHIELD were by getting help from 'lost creatures'?

Could we see some other MU race coming to the aid of Earth?

He's clearly going to die in this scene. :woot:

[FABSN13]

Just watched the new trailer again and also the first one and I don´t know if I´m wrong, but could it be that the building in which Nick Fury is walking in at 0:24 seconds is the same as the one where Loki arrives on earth in the first trailer? Don´t know if anyone else thinks the same, guess its the NASA building.

[Quasimod0]

Thatd be awesome. I didnt think about that. What else could he be grappling?

[UltimateWebhead]

I've watched the trailer several times now and I gotta say I am officially excited for this movie. It's always a difficult thing to pull off when you have so many characters that all have arcs within a story. It looks like they will work to become a team, get past their own individual hang ups and put aside their own egos if they want to succeed. It should make for a great tale. The CGI looks pretty good. I gotta admit, I had some goosebumps when Hulk caught a falling Iron Man and slid down that bldg. It looked awesome.

[JB-the-Hunter]

What do you think Loki was refering to when he spoke of how desperate The Avengers or SHIELD were by getting help from 'lost creatures'?

The Avengers are actually the lost creatures Loki is referring to.

[BigThor]

The Avengers are actually the lost creatures Loki is referring to.

Yep :word:

[darthmagic]

The Avengers are actually the lost creatures Loki is referring to.

He's reffering to the Hulk.

[BigThor]

The Hulk's only one person though, I'm pretty sure he said "creatures".

[Kirmit]

He's reffering to the Hulk.

I too thought 'lost creatures' described Hulk better than the other Avengers.

[BigThor]

Since when is Hulk described as "creatures" instead of the plural "creature"?

[Quasimod0]

Steve has no friends or family, Tony has lost both of his parents, Banner wanders around and never has a real home, thor has a lost brother and is torn between his love of asgard and earth. Yep, lost creatures

[darthmagic]

The Hulk's only one person though, I'm pretty sure he said "creatures".

It was the Hulk.


The first snippet presents a scene taking place in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier. Fury gives Loki, who is trapped inside a hi-tech chamber encased by glass walls, a warning. He will plummet 30,000 feet to his death if he tries to escape. When Loki says, "It's an impressive cage, but not built for me," Fury replies, "Built for something a lot stronger than you."

After it is uncovered that the cage was actually built for the Hulk, Loki mocks Fury by saying, "How desperate are you, to call on such lost creatures to defend you?" In turn, Fury says, "How desperate am I? You threaten my world with war. You steel a force you can't control. You talk about peace, but you kill because it's fun..."

http://www.aceshowbiz.com/news/view/00043083.html

[Kirmit]

Since when is Hulk described as "creatures" instead of the plural "creature"?

It depends on the context of the conversation.

[craigdbfan]

Loki is one to talk. He doesn't belong in either Asgard or Jotunheim now and betrayed his adoptive family and homeland and now roams Earth to take control of it.

He's one of those "lost creatures" as well. :funny:

[BigThor]

He's also a Frost Giant, meaning he's literally more of a "creature" than anybody.

[JB-the-Hunter]

I suppose he could be referring to the Hulk, but in the context of the trailer they made it seem as if he were talking about The Avengers as a whole, especially since they all qualify as lost creatures.

Same here and why would he specifically point out Hulk when Fury is clearly enlisting the help of 5 other people?

It was the Hulk.



The first snippet presents a scene taking place in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier. Fury gives Loki, who is trapped inside a hi-tech chamber encased by glass walls, a warning. He will plummet 30,000 feet to his death if he tries to escape. When Loki says, "It's an impressive cage, but not built for me," Fury replies, "Built for something a lot stronger than you."

After it is uncovered that the cage was actually built for the Hulk, Loki mocks Fury by saying, "How desperate are you, to call on such lost creatures to defend you?" In turn, Fury says, "How desperate am I? You threaten my world with war. You steel a force you can't control. You talk about peace, but you kill because it's fun..."

[BigThor]

^ That still doesn't prove it's the Hulk btw and why would he say "creatures" instead of the plural form "creature"?

[craigdbfan]

He still seems to be including the rest of them in there as well otherwise he could have just said "How desperate are you, to call on such a lost creature to defend you".

[darthmagic]

maybe this will help

Nick Fury is with Loki on the aircraft and shows Loki that he’s in a prison designed to hold the Hulk. The prison cell can have its floor dropped out with the flick of a switch — which Fury is sure to show Loki.
“Loki knows they’re talking about the Hulk, calling him a mindless beast and wondering how desperate Fury must be to ally himself with the likes of such a creature”

Yes it does, I feel the same way.

hey, i know you were bummed about Thor not getting to do anything awesome power wise in the trailer but what did you think of the scene of him angry looking down (from what looked like the top of a building). he looks like he is about to deal some massive damage in the next scene.

What was TDKR #'s?

[hitmanyr2k]

I know I'm late on this but HOLY SH** that was a great trailer!! I can't stop watching it.

[craigdbfan]

What was TDKR #'s?

12.5 million while new Avengers trailer was 13.7 million.

The third trailer for TDKR will probably break that record as well as they've each been one upping each other in terms of views since they started releasing their trailers.

That certainly gives the indication that interest seems to be around in the same ballpark for both. Incredibly big box office numbers for both seems assured at this point.

Almost 14 million iTunes trailer downloads in 24 hours of the new Avengers trailer on iTunes.

Immature and not necessary and this shouldn't be a contest for us viewers.

[TheVileOne]

It's fine. I will be at Dark Knight Rises opening day or before if I can manage.

But it was more of a joke or anything since people get oversensitive about the movie versus movie thing.

[rashad]

What was TDKR #'s?

TDKR - 12.5
Avengers - 13.7

TDKR's final trailer will most likely break the record again. Nonetheless it will be one of the most epic Summers in recent memory.

[rogue_agent]

Loki was referring to all the Avengers members - he merely used Hulk as an example.

[Splat]

The one important thing to take away from the iTunes record is that both movies are extremely anticipated and both will make a ton of money and finish in the top 5 for highest grossing movies of the year.

That's all the record means, nothing more. I am curious on TAS's numbers from its last trailer to see where it stacks up.

[warhorse78]

This trailer exceeded my expectations honestly. It really is truly EPIC. I guess i have watched it about 25-30 times now.

Well, it was fun at first for me. But then I decided to switch from my little 17" laptop, and put the trailer on my 55" TV, now that looks freaking sweet. I can only imagine how fantastic this is going to look on the real big screen. I haven't been this pumped up about a movie/trailer since I saw the very first Transformers teaser.

This.

[Dangerman]

I'm sorry while the trailer looked good the movie still seems like Transformers to me where there is tons of action and things blowing up with little story behind it. That's not saying it wont do well at the box office but it just seems like Iron Man 2 or Transformers to me.

Yes, I have a TV the same dimension and it's very much better than at the laptop screen. Makes me even more excited to see it on the big screen (if that is really possible).

Knowing the emphasis that Marvel has put on story in every film building up to this, plus the fact that Joss is directing (who is one of the most character driven directors I can think of) quells my fears. The trailer is action eye candy to whet our appetites, and I'm cool with that.

[Rowsdower!]

Yeah, how can you determine that there's little to no story? Trailers always show intense actions scenes. If Bay was directing, then yeah, I would conclude there was no story. But he's not. I'm not the biggest Joss fan, but I'm definitely looking forward to this.

I especially love Ruffalo's line: "We're not a team. We're a time bomb." Can't wait to see what provokes that statement.

So even though Marvel has made it a point in every one of their movies to put story over action and have good characterization, you believe they will eschew that formula which has worked well for their biggest movie ever? The point of trailers is to get people interested and action sequences get audiences. If you know anything about Joss Whedon, you know he doesnt write mindless action. Ever.

Yeah I am :(, but it might be for the best that they're saving his awesome action scenes for the movie I'm just not a very patient person.

I'm very interested in that shot of Thor looking angry on top of what appears to be Stark Tower, I hope it happens right after he's fought Loki and he's about to use his powers to close Loki's portal.

Say what you will about Transformers and some of its bad qualities, but it did feel like something big was going down. It appears like Avengers will do the same. Plus, with a great writer of characters like Whedon at the helm...this will be special.

[ElMariachi]

The trailer was amazing. Anybody still complaining about this just needs to admit they are a hater, a biased fanboy, and somebody that can't have fun. I said it about the SB trailer but this movie looks like the ultimate superhero film. It's a comicbook come to life in the same way Watchmen pulled it off a few years ago.

Bold colors, incredible CGI, rousing score, exciting action, interesting snippets of dialouge, a good story, and whatever the hell that giant metallic snake/ship is........this trailer ranks among the best ever IMO. Oh and we still havent' seen the Helicarrier in action! :woot:

So that shot of hawkeye firing that arrow..im guessing thats the shot that causes the explosion in the room where fury and the rest of the avengers are bickering...blowing cap and banner out of that window, causing banner to hulk out...and widow to seek out and fight hawkeye...and then escape with hulk..maybe ;)

The hype for this movie is simply amazing. The most remarkable thing is that Marvel has achieved this without resorting to stunts and viral marketing. The studio simply made five great movies that built to a climax in The Avengers. The public's excitement has built along with the franchise. This achievement is a testament to the vision and careful planning of Kevin Feige and the creative minds at Marvel Studios. It would never have happened without an incredible amount of foresight and skillful management.


BTW, I just saw the trailer on Access Hollywood Weekend. Marvel's publicists should be congratulated for coordinating the roll-out of the trailer with interviews (in EW), media coverage and general hype. They did a great job of getting The Avengers out in the public eye. They will only amp up the campaign from here on out. The folks who bungled the promotion of John Carter should be forced to study The Avengers' campaign to learn how it's done.
