[Spider-Vader]

i assume this winter will will get a 2nd trailer with more shots of the hulk?

may cannot come soon enough for me!

I wouldn't expect it until February or March, with a Super Bowl ad inbetween.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Yeah, same here.

 

[Iceman]

That sounds about right.

 

[terry78]

I still remember that 2003 Hulk Super Bowl spot. I was awed at what I was seeing.

 

[bored]

Seeing that ad for the first time during the Super Bowl was EPIC.

TO LONG!!!!

 

[WildcatNC]

Wow, a few new faces. Welcome all. "Raging Ovaries"


Man I hoped we would at least get some footage descriptions. I kind of figured no actual footage would leak.

Are there NO Italian geeks???

 

[misjuevos]

sup, what's everyone looking for? with our powers combined we can scour the webz fully.

 

[Superhero 101]

I hope Marvel releases a few new images as we wait for the next trailer

There was some italian Con that showed Avengers footage. Sounds like the D23 stuff with a few new shots. We were hoping it would leak somewhere.

Just curious; but would you guys prefer for the Alien Enforcers/Armies that Loki brings to have had their own interest in attacking and taking siege of Earth under Loki's command, or would you guys be okay with them just having attacked Earth based on some other deal that Loki made with them?

I'm fine either way as long as it works well in the plot. I would be fine if Loki "convinced" them that Earth is worth ruling.

Good point; though I do wonder if people are hoping to see either the standard type of villains in these invaders or if they're looking for villains that are presented in the same layered manner that Loki is.

I always prefer complex villains, but the minions don't have to be really.

 

[Ahura Mazda]

Ideally, Loki should have tricked them into attacking Earth.

 

[Godzilla2000]

Minions are cannon fodder for the heroes I believe so yeah, they don't need to be too complex.

 

[BigThor]

BigThor, is ANYONE more powerful than Thor?

Quite a few characters are more powerful than Thor, including Thanos himself, Galactus, Odin, Celestials, Dormammu, Surtur, Ymir, Mangog etc.

The point I was making was that Thanos with his natural abilites isn't waaaaay more powerful than Thor, while he is more powerful he's alot closer to Thor than Odin (based on his unagumented abilities only).

I've never seen Thanos completely demolish Thor not even once and I'm not speaking as a fan, I'm speaking from what I've actually seen..

 

[LokiDionysos]

Hopefully we get one more villain that has a personality/name. And if we are getting Thanos later I wouldn't mind seeing a female character connected to him, like Nebula, leading an alien merc army before Thanos gets directly involved.

She controlled one against the Avengers before in the comics. From a ship that's identical to Thanos'. Plus, I think it could be more interesting than Skrull queen, while still allowing for the army to be comprised of skrulls and the other cosmic races. And you still get another female character/side-villain to offset the male to female ratio a little.
Here's why she might work and could be used in a way that wouldn't overshadow Loki.

from wiki:
Nebula
A brutal space pirate and mercenary, Nebula seized control of Sanctuary III, a massive spaceship previously under the command of Thanos. Thanos was believed to be dead at this point, and Nebula claimed that he had been her grandfather. Nebula's band of mercenaries and pirates consisted of Skunge, Kehl, Gunthar, and Levan.
Nebula asked the second Catain Marvel to join her mercenary band and aid them in conquering the Skrull Empire. However, Firelord learned that Nebula had massacred the Xandarians. Nebula used her space fleet to attack the Skrull space armada and the Avengers.
...

The Infinity Gauntlet

The newly resurrected Thanos was offended by Nebula's claims of kinship. He reclaimed his ship and almost killed her, using the Infinity Gems. He transformed her into a grotesque virtual corpse still barely alive, leaving her as a maimed and seemingly mindless zombie, burned and disfigured by his energy beams.[3]
When he later claimed the Infinity Gauntlet, Thanos boasted that Nebula was his greatest creation — unable to die, but not truly alive either. However, when Thanos defeated Eternity and took his place, Thanos expanded his consciousness into the universe, leaving his body comatose. Nebula managed to take the Gauntlet from Thanos, using its power to restore herself to health and banish Thanos, seeking to conquer the universe herself. *(Here I'm thinking they wouldn't go this far with Nebula and will probably leave her dead if she's used.)


Abilities
Nebula is an athletic woman and an excellent armed and unarmed combatant. She possesses a gifted intellect and is a brilliant battle strategist.
Nebula uses blasters worn on her wrists that fire concussive blasts of unknown energy or heat blasts that can incinerate a human being almost instantly. She also apparently wears a device that enables her to disguise her appearance, either through illusion-casting or through actual molecular rearrangement of her body and clothing.
Nebula was converted by Doctor Mandibus into a cyborg. She was given an artificial left eye, left arm, and left shoulder. The left upper quarter of her head and part of her right hip are sheathed in metal.
