Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Avengers have assembled! (pretty much just the Marvel movie thread now with some comics)

Knowing or not knowing their identity apparently has zero effect on the movie.
omg you're spoilering the relevance of them! SPOILERTH!
But seriously, this argument gets dragged out, beat to death, and resurrected every time something like this happens. The movie isn't out yet, it's a fucking button, and some people make a point to go into media blackouts when a movie they really want to see is coming out.
AND SINCE THIS THREAD IS ABOUT THE COMIC BOOKS TOO, it's rude to suggest they just stay away until they see it. So how about we all just click the button, and if it makes you feel any better you can call me an asshole every time you click it to spoiler something.

Generally the identity of a monster/monstrous bad guy is not the issue. It's the reveal. The reveal of "oh my god what is that! It looks so evil!"
Which, you know, has been spoiled for those on media blackouts who come into this thread and see that.

It's in the trailers. That show up on television. If you're on a media blackout, perhaps the thread about the movie is a bad place to be?
Or just use the spoiler functionality put into this forum for this very reason and save everybody a headache. Give a hoot, use a spoiler tag!
I don't think you're reading what he said very well. People may have seen the trailers, but the trailers don't say who they are, even if there is a split-second closeup on one of their faces.

The fuck it is.
Spoiler alert, Thor is an Asgardian.
The Hulk gets mad and smashes stuff.
Iron Man drinks.
It's not like they said "Loki summons Megatron and then they join forces to resurrect Jesus as an evil mastermind" and ruined the plot.

I don't think you're an asshole because you don't want to be spoiled.
I mean, this response moves you a bit in that direction, I'm just saying, that if someone sees that on television they're probably not thinking "Hey, I bet no one else has seen it."
Instead I'm going to go with this

Holy crap. That right there is some top-shelf ugly alien. I think he even has a cold. Disgusting.
The action in this just felt great whether it was on a small or large scale with the team working well together in combos that just screamed comic book action panels. Hulk in particular is done so well and really steals the show in my opinion. A very Ultimates Hulk inspired performance.
The dialogue and one liners throughout were very good, the Marvel movies to date have had comic moments and combining that with Whedon's snappy directing meant that the laughs were thick and fast but never detracting from the "seriousness" of any scene. My only minor complaint on this was that at times I felt the movie was just a tad too Iron Man centric and despite not enjoying Captain America (the movie, I really enjoyed the performance of Evans, in this especially) as much as I would have liked, I don't feel he gets quite enough screen time. None of the other characters are by any means ancillary and Whedon does a good job of fleshing out the likes of Black Widow and Hawkeye while not compromising on pace and at the same time building more layers into the other Avengers.
Other reviews have said how the first and second acts don't quite match up but while I agree that the third act is phenomenal, I still thought the preceeding acts were excellent.
In summary I would say that if you read comics and you know that really satisfying feeling you get when you have sat and read a whole tpb or hardcover in one sitting and you have a big shit eating grin on your face the whole way through - this film does exactly that.

Is this time for revenge - aka spoil the fuck out of everything and say "What? You haven't got it yet? What kind of backwards place do you live?"
Don't worry, I won't - but for once evil is tempting.
I was actually going to ask te same question. What's up with her?
I assume it's to help with the situation of "I'm Nick Fury, head of SHIELD, and these are all my faceless underlings. And Agent Coulson."
Hopefully it's a bit more than her
typing at a consoleusing a touchscreen and reporting on the unfolding events of the invasion.she's like sigourney weaver in galaxy quest
So her costume gets ripped progressively more and more open over the course of the movie?
I'm down.

Spoilered again if people don't want to read about her role in the film
Does get progressively dirtier/cut/injured but no apparent clothing tearing. Real battle damage!

Unf.
If we get that scene.
I don't even.
Someone wanna provide a link?
Gave some proper context to one scene in particular, that I didn't see before because it was hidden very, very, well.
It showed Iron Man single-handedly trying to stave off a major contingent of the army pouring through a gigantic portal in the sky.
I think the 'alien invasion' angle is particularly interesting, especially after Iron Man 2's whole 'privatize World Peace' spiel that Stark gave congress.
