I saw the movie. I agree with you, spoilers and all. I was still wondering this and thought: "what a cheesy way to incorporate this into the 'Avengers' way"... so I thought that part sucked. I give it an 8 out of 10. Many cheesy lines. The arrogance of Iron Man is making it difficult for me to follow the story, although I see why he is like this... it's just my opinion.
Absolutely there were weak points in the plot. I won't say holes, but stretched to the point of being see through sheer: Spoiler Thor knowing all about Loki's army for no apparent reason The gamma tie in to write in Hulk The notion of tracing/pinpointing "low level emissions" of gamma radiation on a global scale. Barton blowing only one engine at a time and not bothering to take out a third as they left etc The 1st engine (vs the second) being repairable in 5 minutes. Spoiler When Fury talks in the gym to 'recruit' Rodgers: Rodgers: "At this point, I doubt anything would surprise me." Fury: "Ten bucks says you're wrong"
Too many damn cheesy lines. They went with RDJ, hope they tone him down in Avengers 2. Secondly, Pixar and Marvel need to get together and make movies. Truthfully, a Guardians movie needs to be completely CGI. Pixar + Marvel = $$$$$$ (higher return on investment )
I don't see Pixar teaming up with Marvel tbh. They're having enough success as they are and probably don't need Marvel. They can just produce their own line superheroes, like The Incredibles. It would be good though if they have can make an Avengers movie. They really know how to tell a story.
Nah...now this looks like it'll be a good game: http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/05...+twitter&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social Youtube link is being stupid: http://youtu.be/eDSrI1MtTcg?hd=1
According to BoxOfficeMojo, Avengers will fall out of the #1 slot this weekend. Four-Day Forecast (May 25-28) 1. MIB 3 - $84 million 2. The Avengers - $41.7 million (-25%) 3. Battleship - $15.3 million (-40%) 4. Chernobyl Diaries - $14.8 million 5. The Dictator - $11.5 million (-34%) However, I'm not 100% sold on that. If MIB3 does knock Avengers off the top spot, I'm guessing that it will be closer than the above prediction.
ALL-TIME DOMESTIC BOX OFFICE 1. 2009 -Avatar - $760,507,625 2. 1997 - Titanic - $658,546,990 3. 2008 -The Dark Knight - $533,345,358 4. 2012 - Marvel's The Avengers - $476,684,788 and counting..... 5. 1999 Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace - $474,544,427
It's making crazy money, but I prefer box office lists that adjust grosses for today's ticket prices: 1 Gone with the Wind - $1,600,193,400 2 Star Wars - $1,410,707,200 3 The Sound of Music - $1,127,929,800 4 E.T. - $1,123,486,300 5 Titanic - $1,074,258,200 6 The Ten Commandments - $1,037,520,000 7 Jaws - $1,014,384,200 8 Doctor Zhivago - $983,152,800 9 The Exorcist - $875,945,400 10 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs - $863,280,000 Still has a ways to go by that metric.
Would it be easier to measure it by tickets sold, instead? Movie ticket costs vary around the world. I know in some parts of Asian, it can go as low as $2 on weekdays.
Pretty incredible how well Gone With the Wind did considering there were less movie theaters and less people and less cars back then. They must have been showing that movie for 3 years straight or something, and there must have been no other good movies out. I guess comparing movie success from different eras is as hard as comparing nba player success from different eras. You just can't do it fairly, even with all the stats and figures.
You know, I understand all the folks who want to compare movie performance across eras like that, and it makes a certain sense, I feel the same way in some circumstances. But there needs to be some kind of hybrid stat or something, which ALSO takes into account the fact that in those past eras, there simply were not many other choices vying for peoples' attention and entertainment dollars. For example, would all of those people have stood in lines around blocks waiting to see Star Wars if they had had the choices they have today? And Gone With the Wind, of course, amazingly successful classic, but what else was there for people to do? How long was it in the theaters, etc etc. I would love to see some kind of hybrid stats that ends up taking all of that into account, so the actual amazing performance of movies like Avater and Avengers can still stand close to movies like Star Wars and GWTW and make everybody happy with the numbers, and give the truest possible picture.
There was plenty of good films that came out in 1939, these are the movies released and not including serials and specials which also was shown in theaters... Movies back then were pretty much Golden while movies that are out today are pretty much bland and dry and they suck balls...

^^ This, annoying to see people here thinking their were no movies in the 30s or 40s. These centuries were loaded with classics and famous actors.
