The Avengers Darker and serious moments from Avengers you liked (SPOILERS)

[MessiahDecoy123]

The first part I really liked was Black Widow's face of frozen terror when Banner purposely scared her after she tried to recruit him. It just showed how serious she took the Hulk as a threat while showing Banner was reckless (possibly suicidal) from years of dealing with the Hulk.

Both of these aspects come into play later when the Hulk tries to kill Black Widow and when Banner tells the team he tried to kill himself.

People like to talk about the funny parts but there are some darker elements that really add to the characters and story. Please share some of your favorites.

Scarlett did a good job with that. It was important that the badass superspy show a little vulnerability and fear, and Hulk def scared the **** out of her.

Also, the scene with Loki where she "interrogated" him. That turned darker than I thought it would, and it was a good touch which Hiddleston sold masterfully. Another good job by Scarlett conveying how she was shaken despite the performance she put on in front of him.

 

[ktulutu]

Loki when he took the old guys eye ball out I am glad they made him that crazy i.e. he smiles when he sees people freaking out.

Also as mentioned his speech to Widow is great-actually I kind of thought her bluff really undermined that scene but whatever...

 

[Swordmaster]

The talk between Thor and Loki on the mountain.

Not to mention the certain derogatory remark he makes towards her. I didn't know the meaning at the time, but when I found out what it actually meant, I was surprised that they managed to get away with that in the film.

Wait, there were dark and serious moments in this movie? Sorry i got distracted by the one liners and Hulk's cartoonish attack on Loki smh. Seriously I watched Watchmen again soon after Avengers and i'm sorry, but Avengers is a flat out COMEDY lol. The action sequences etc felt rushed and the movie was a popcorn pleaser. The themes were shallow and the movie lacked any sort of depth or layers. It was just funny the entire time. Was there a single serious moment? remind me...

 

[Godman]

Sad when most people's most serious moments was with a side character black widow. What happened to the alcoholic stark, or the often times depressed old young man with tragic memories, captain america? The most serious parts were hawkeye and black widow. Everything else was humor besides the banner stark convos

Not every superhero flick needs to be dark,humorless and edgy like Chris Nolan's Bat flicks. There are some serious moments here. Like Banner talking about suicide, Loki and Black Widow scene, Loki in general, a certain agent's death, for example.

The tone for this movie was spot on in my opinion suited the characters better. A dark, grim Avengers movie would be stupid. And fanboys would say its trying to copy Nolan's Bat films.

I think we just covered all of the serious moments..

Not surprising coming from you, considering you're a hardcore Nolanite and Batfan, not to mention that you've also trolled the Captain America forums.

Come to think of it he is a hardcore Nolan fanboy. I have seen him around trolling too. I knew the success of this would draw the trolls like him out.

GTFOH!

It's pretty obvious that he's trolling because he has barely posted recently and pretty much only does so to troll other boards to get a rise out of people. It's pretty pathetic, really.

To paraphrase the Hulk: "Puny Godman."

 

[eddy]

I really liked the scene near the beginning with Loki flashbacking(or was he teleporting his visage there like in Thor's movie when he is walking around in the suit but not really there?) talking to The Other. The Other was really creepy to me and Loki looked really out of his depth on whether they'd have his head.

I also liked how quiet and somber everyone got after Coulson's death.

The agent deathw asn't even serious lol...i mean he cracked a joke before loki AND after him smh. seriously?

it was pure slapstick comic relief the movie was. i enjoyed that for what that is, but too sad we are in times where an audience has a short attention span and wont sit for Godfather type themes but rather slap stick humor. Lord Of The Rings was how you make a HUGE multi character epic. The Avengers felt like serenity on steroids and for sure a movie to be forgotten in 5 years. Seriously was there one MOMENT that really edified the peak of cinema or anything you really hadn't scene before? You know how even in "Sucker Punch" that one train sequence alone ****s on the entire Avengers action sequences. I needed one EPIC moment and the best I got was hulk/loki? that was so campy lol. I laughed too, but definitely wouldn't be a seen i'd ever see in an avengers comic book, nor animated movie, nor in a movie taken seriously enough to dig deeper into the soul of the many years it took to develop the mythos. It's based on the Marvel Knights avengers to begin with so um...did those comics even have slap stick humor?

Loke saying "i'll take that drink now?" wtf?

 

[bunk]

I liked that they managed to get the attempted suicide scene from Incredible Hulk into Avengers.

Sad when most people's most serious moments was with a side character black widow. What happened to the alcoholic stark, or the often times depressed old young man with tragic memories, captain america?

Those moments are PROBABLY being saved for the actual sequels to the movies where the characters in question are the CENTRAL character. I'm sure Cap will visit those memories in Captain America 2, with Stark's drinking problems adressed in Iron Man 3.

[drastic_quench]

Stark got pretty serious when he decided to go on a nuclear suicide bombing to the other end of the universe.

 

[Still Wynning]

Just ignore Godman, guys. He's just trolling.

 

[eddy]

Eh. If Joss wanted to he could've made a dreary, serious, grim film that had you ready to slit your wrists but thats not what this movie set out to do. It was SUPPOSED to be a movie to pump you up and put a smile on your face like Indiana Jones or Star Wars or Back To The Future. You know those films right? Some of the most beloved films of all time? Trust me trollman. Joss can out-dark with the best of them.
