Any time you put together Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, the Hulk and Scarlett Johansson as a female superhero in a movie, well you got my attention. The Avengers just released its latest trailer and it shows even more explosions and awesomeness.
Here's the things I noticed on first watch:
- Robert Downey Jr. being good ol' Bob Downey
- Scarlet Jo looks better as a blonde
- Flying Iron Man punch!
- Watching the Empire State Building getting struck with lightening is sweeeeeet
- That girl from How I Met Your Mother is in this, apparently? Or am I mistaken
- Who would win a cool battle? Antihero Bob Downey, All American Boy Chris Evans or Aussieman Chris Hemsworth? No superpowers included.
- OMG Hulk saved a falling Iron Man!
- WHAT IS THAT Transformers looking flying snake at the end of the trailer?
The movie comes out May 4th.
DISCUSSION
I still am on the fence about this one. Everytime Hollywood brings a bunch of superheroes and villans into movies it tends to be bad. As a kid, I remeber the horrible Batman & Robin and Spider-man 3 where there were multiple villians. Too much going on at once.
