moothemagiccow: Alright I watched this movie.

This from someone who thinks "Aliens" sucks. You'll forgive me if I take your "review" with a grain of salt.

I have a friend who knew Chris Evans at that age (dated his sister for a while, I guess.) He told me once the best way to describe him was like the beginning of Captain America- short and kinda scrawny. Said when he saw that on screen he thought, "Yeah, THAT'S the Chris I remember."

/CSB over

moothemagiccow: Alright I watched this movie. I'm gonna have to say it was boring. On the superhero movies I've already seen rating, it gets an Iron Man 2. spoilers follow

Problems:
No villains. Thor vs Hulk, etc is best relegated to Hulk v2 #257 when they just have nothing interesting to print. Apart from it being a basic premise in the movie, (good old mind control) they ran this trope about 4 times. When the villains finally came out, they were faceless, voiceless, militant aliens whose "homeworld" is a big spaceship. I felt like they had more motivation than anyone else. Loki was an asshole for not teleporting them to Wyoming, where they could build and prosper. Loki, BTW, got his ass handed to him by one hero in the previous flick. Now that he's got a laser spear they need to team up?

No story.

Shield Shield Shield.

More people died in the Incredibles. Nick Fury & Black Widow, both mere mortals, one of whom is 65, each leapt out of at least 3 exploding vehicles without a scratch. In the beginning sequence, even Hawkeye shoots bullets that never hit their target.

The McGuffin was lame and last seen in Transformers 1, which heavily inspired this movie.
No editing. Not every character needs a scene explaining how they feel about what happened in the previous scene. Maybe this was a contractual obligation.

Hawkeye didn't need to be in this movie at all. They turned off his mind for about an hour, thus shirking any character development for the guy who shoots at things. Like he needs it.
The Hulk is dangerous! The Hulk is a force to be reckoned with! Loki wants to unleash the Hulk to kill about 45 minutes during Act 2! When he actually shows up, the Hulk is fairly level-headed and easy to deal with, as usual.

The climax. Honestly, this is the bit everyone came for. If you show up 90 minutes late, you haven't missed anything, because it's just been lazily tiptoeing toward the big fight that lasts an hour anyway.

To summarize, for those who don't feel like reading the whole thing: He hates that other people like the movie, so he felt the need to spend half a dozen paragraphs trying to convince everyone why a comic book movie didn't make any sense. The End.

James Scameron: OH WOW ANOTHER USELESS AVERNGERS THREAD YAY!

averngers-fangasm rife in this domain

Yes, yes, we get it. You're more intelligent and mature than everyone else on Fark, as evidenced by your dripping disdain for anything comic and/or movie related that more than two other people on Earth actually like. Go back to masturbating to your Daniel Clowes collection and let the rest of us actually get some enjoyment out of life.

GAT_00: I know they're actual characters, but I was asking why they were added without any kind of backstory? Usually films don't assume you know everything. But seriously, bow an arrow with apparently C4 attached that detonates on impact? That part may have been the least realistic part of that movie, and that's saying a lot. Also that his quiver magically changed from one to two holders in the middle of battle.

Hawkeye was in the Thor movie and Black Widow was in Iron Man 2. That's all the backstory you're going to get. Neither character would have been strong enough to do a movie of their own (although there has been some talk of a Hawkeye/Black Widow film now.)

Basically, Marvel wanted an Avengers movie, and it would be pretty weak with only four Avengers in it, so they slipped Hawkeye and Widow into two of the bigger pre-Avengers films so they would have a legitimate reason to use them in the Avengers film.

Well, legitimate to everyone but you. :)
