I missed out on riding the Marvel wave. I’ve never been into comic books or comic book movies, and so I never started watching the Avengers movies, but now that this one is out, I think I might have to go back and remedy that. Don’t scoff, I’m not trying to jump on the bandwagon, this movie just plain looks good, actiony & adventurey in a way that just might not be cheap.
You have a lot of catching up to do! Three Iron Mans, two Thors, two Captain Americas, the first Avengers…and of course, you have to watch them all because they weave the story line through each movie (a great marketing tactic!) I think this movie looks really dark, like Batman/Heath Ledger dark. Maybe they are trying to draw in a more sophisticated audience. I just hope it is still teenager appropriate.
That might be too much comic book for me to handle. Maybe I’ll cheat and just watch the first Avengers.
Watch both captain americas and the first iron man at least. Then if you are up for more watch the avengers and the other two iron mans. Thor is not very good but does have a set up for the first avengers…
Sounds like a lot of work, lol.
