Looks pretty bad. And Ray Winstone I'm stick of his walking cockney hardman stereotype that he plays in every film ever.

You should read Danny Baker's tweets about this film.

Let begin by first saying I haven't watched Thor. I haven't watched Captain America. I haven't watched Iron Man 2. They might all be really great movies. But there is something about the team sequel, The Avengers' movie promo material that looks straight-to-video and leaves me cold.

All three (Ironman 2, Thor, Cpt America) are all decidedly average. Mildly entertaining but nothing remotely special.

Care to quote them? Please?

Yeah I honestly think the film looks muck. Taf is right, the three of them are average (With Iron Man being the better of the three imo)

Any time I see a screen from the film I can't help think of....

If you didn't know you were watching Thor you would be forgiven for thinking it was a Flash Gordon remake.

I think out of the three I prefer Captain America. Just for Laura Haddock:

Iron Man 2 had slightly too much Samuel L. Jackson, it was more an Avengers prequel than an Iron Man sequel. And let's not go into Thor...

There's a world of difference between Avengers and those latter Batman films.

Judging the film based on one picture

Especially when it looks like it isn't even your type of film because you haven't watched like the last 3/4 marvel films.

On the contrary I love superhero movies. I really enjoyed Iron Man 1. Thor, with the whole Norse gods theme looks interesting especially with Kenneth Brannagh directing. But I have a nice TV so I don't go to the cinema unless a movie is particularly compelling to me and most of the comments I've heard about the above mentioned movies have not been glowing. So I will watch them when LoveFilm delivers them.

I haven't judged the Avengers film based on one picture, I've been following its development for at least 3 years. The Avengers movie seem like it has been put together by a committee of suits. Maybe there will be a trailer that connects with me. However if you are there on the opening night of the Avengers movie and love it, I will be more than happy to read your review.

Too many opinions for you Priesty?

Regarding my Batman reference, I meant the Avengers reminded me of that picture.

[Memento Mori]

Caps suit still doesn't sit well with me.

Why did they ruin it? The costume he had in the movie was pretty good.

Don't mind him, he's still bumpain about getting schooled in the Mass Effect thread.
