Anyone Else Jazzed About the New Avengers Movie?
Trip:
Ironically, I think Hulk has the best two scenes in the entire movie. It's a weak plot, decent action, really cheesy, and a lot going on to show all at once. Group movies are hard to get right and they didn't do it completely.

So far this is the only negative review I have heard. Everyone else, even movie snob critics says its awesome.

April is too early to kick off the Summer Blockbuster season in the U.S. Or maybe they just weren't keen on competing against the Hunger Games. Or maybe, knowing that the U.S. is by far the most important market, they decided it's useful to have some serious test markets so they can maximize the effectiveness of their advertising campaigns here and get an idea of the demand for 3D vs. non-3D screenings.
In any case, I don't think it was meant as a slight on your nationality. :P

Its the principal of it Shmokes. I dont think the last week of April is vs the first week of May is going to be that much of a difference when concerning "Summer Blockbuster season". The Hunger Games has been out since March. The points you make are understandable, but not really valid, considering its only a week. I sincerely doubt, considering how word of mouth gets around with social media etc, that they would really rev up their marketing campaign, spend all that money, over a week. The only thing I would say that would be accurate would be the 3D test. Cmon, its an American property, made by Americans, and the rest of the world sees it first?! Kinda ---smurfy--- if you ask me. :dunno

As for the order of watching It should go in the following order. (Or at least my belief is this is the best order to watch them in).
Hulk (Ignore completely, no correlation with Avengers movie)
Iron Man 1
The Incredible Hulk
Iron Man 2
Thor
Captain America
Avengers

They are doing marathons in the theater in some of the bigger cities around the country. Nothing close by me though. I'd like to catch a couple of them on DVD prior to the weekend if there is time.

Why not
Captain America

Iron Man 2
Thor
Avengers
Your list above seems to be organized by the teaser at the end of the film rather than any sort of chronology... unless you only watch the bit after the credits, then carry on.

That's hard to believe.
I wouldn't call my review negative, I would just call it meh.
A lot of you will like the first part of the movie. It's a big what if your favorite superhero fought your other favorite superhero.
The second part of the movie, "the plot," is what I didn't like. You want to watch it right now? Watch Transformers Dark Side of the Moon and imagine Optimus Prime is Captain America and the rest of the transformers are the avengers. Substitute the Decepticons and the bad human guy for Loki and some other robotic aliens and you have the end of the Avengers almost plot for plot.
