The Avengers Anticipation

Hello there wonderful world, yes I said wonderful…! It’s shocking, I know, but I’m just extremely happy and damn near jubilant over the fact that in less than a week, I’ve had seen The Avengers at least once. And when I say it like that, it’s because I expect to leave after the first time, run to the ticket booth and scream “WHEN CAN I SEE IT AGAIN???? Okay, so maybe my expectations are a bit high to say the least, but I have a lot of faith in everything and everyone involved with that film. From the director to the cast to everything I’ve seen, heard and read about it. I’ll admit it, I’m the kind of guy who can’t help himself when it comes to spoilers, so I’ve already read a lot of the “surprises” from the film. But honestly, it’s only going to make it even more awesome to me because all of it is stuff I expect, NAY, demand of an Avengers film. If what I’ve read is true, a lot of the things I’ve hoped for and liked to see are going to come true, which makes the waiting freaking excruciating. Sucks though, that I’ll have to see it in 3D to begin with. I don’t give a ¤#¤¤% if anybody likes 3D and wants to pay extra money for what can only be considered a minor and designed for easily-impressed people effect. Seriously, how can it keep being cool that “it looked like that arrow/laser beam/freaking butterfly came flying at me.. uuuhhh pretty”? Its fine for those that like it, but ridiculous that the 2D version is released later than 3D presumably to give the latter an advantage in terms of sales. And there’s such a thing as people who can’t even see 3D and are then either forced to pay extra money for nothing or wait longer. It might seem extreme not to be able to wait an additional two weeks, but personally, I’ve been waiting like 15 years, two weeks is NOT an option. 

Okay, so I was a bit negative anyway, but only a little. Really, I’m damn ecstatic to see that movie, even in 3D. I decided not to spoil anything here about the film myself. Even though I’m pretty certain about a lot of awesome details and surprises, I’ve got to see it myself to be a 100. My review though, when I’ve seen the film, will be spoiler filled; now you’re warned. There are simply too many things that needs mentioning in a review like that, pointers at things some people might miss. One thing I will say is this: do NOT leave the cinema until the credits are COMPLETELY done… There is always an after-credits scene in these Marvel studio’s films and if what I’ve read about this one is true, that alone will make this movie legendary to me. One thing I will say, having mentioned it earlier, is the identity of the alien army Loki brings to earth. They have been revealed to be the Chitauri, an alien race from the ultimate version of the Marvel universe. They are in fact, the Ultimate version of the Skrulls from the main universe and also appeared as protagonists in the Ultimates animated movies. As it turned out, it didn’t really matter that much, which race the aliens was. But it did work as a hell of a discussion builder and I’m sure they’ll work great. The important thing isn’t really what they are, but whom Loki “borrowed” them from… Again, stay until the credits are done.

If you haven’t seen them already, I added a couple of the tv spots for the film. If you have, see them again, you know you want to… Less than a week to go, nothing left to say but AVENGERS ASSEMBLE
