Out of all the posters released so far, that Thor and Black Widow one has to be the coolest.

But yeah, Loki and Son of Coul need to be included in these posters =/.
 
Really?
Today's B*itch Du Jour is that there's not enough collateral damage in Marvel movies....??

Hollywood's been ducking the collateral damage in action movies issue for DECADES. Since the medium actually began. So have comic books. It became such a running joke that Marvel even addressed it with a short-lived comic-book series with a team called, appropriately enough, "Collateral Damage," whose sole purpose was to go around and clean up after superhero battles, pay for damages, hospitalize the injured, bury the dead, etc.

Avengers is a family movie. Kiddies and their parents don't want to see bloody bodies and dead innocent bystanders. They want to see good guys beat up the bad guys. This is a no-brainer.

Yeah Loki was even for the most part left off the first group set from SDCC that had Coulson.

It wouldn't call it b****in', we were just saying that Marvel could do a better job of showing how fights between superhuman being should effect the evironment.

It wasn't like people were going all "Marvel movies don't have enough collateral damage, they suck", it's a pretty understandable thing to want to see in a superhero film.
 
no Action Figures either :jedi
it's in wave two, they haven't revealed it yet because there's a spoiler.

the name of the figure is [BLACKOUT]quick change captain marvel[/BLACKOUT]

They want to see the heroes overcome a great threat. Neutering the threat by having it do... nothing, makes for bad story telling and a bad movie. Family movie or not.

If you don't have a believable threat, there is no tension. If there is no tension, then the whole thing is a pointless excercize in showing off the latest CGI technology.

Kids need to be frightened by the bad guys, so that the heroes defeating them is something they can be excited and happy about. For adults the bad guys need to pose a serious threat otherwise it's just a shallow, SFX extravaganza.

Yeah I know about some of that, but even with My boss claiming he HEARD the word Skrull in the Rough cut showing I need to SEE it myself
EDIT: By the way, Wave one and 2 are posted at Toys r US and Hasbro I see nothing of that.
