    Wait, is that
    Yellowjacket AND Ant-Man? The Scott Lang rumor must be accurate.

    Also, I've identified everyone except
    The orange chick next to Yellowjacket, right behind Spider-Man.

    I think it's Dallas Riordan. There is a similar-looking woman Battle Damage Report I'll check when I get a chance.

    Ya that's who I was thinking, with an updated coloring/costume. Her actual costume was mostly just a shield jumpsuit, and between that and her hairstyle and the simple animation of EMH, would have probably been hard to tell Quake and Maria Hill apart ( just like in the comics heh)

    That's disappointing. I kind of wished it was someone who hadn't been around in a while, and not Quake.

    ahhh why don't they have Iron Fist's updated costume ARGLEBARGLE

    but seriously, I am crazy stoked for this

    when's the official premiere of season 2 again?

    My words, your mouth, we are married in some cultures, etc.

    I must check this out.

    April 1st, on Sunday IIRC is the premier episode wherein
    The Avengers team up with the Fantastic Four

    I never really bothered with EMH but that pic has me crazy excited. Going to be recording that.

    Also, picked up the free Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon comic and I'm back to looking forward to the show. The comic is just frames from episode 1 in panel form, and it seems they got the essence of Peter/Spidey right. It looks a bit too goofy, but it should be fun.

    I hope that's the actual date, and not a jerk April fool's prank!, The net has made me jaded against April 1st news.

    And did you like the Flash Thompson locker gag Kyougu? That cracked me up.

    Does this mean we get to see the Winter Soldier arc compressed into a single episode, or treated like a flashback?

    Well, spoilers for Season 1
    Bucky was straight-up dead until Cap touched the cosmic cube and accidentally made it so he didn't die in the explosion in 1945. I imagine they'll reveal bit and pieces of it over time, like Black Widow in Season 1.

    This show has been pretty good about giving things time to build and then addressing them with an adequate amount of episodes.

    Also, they could use Winter Soldier to reveal that Cap is a Skrull maybe?

    Yeah, that was really good. It does capture the vibe of Spidey really well.

    You don't need to be a film critic or act elitist to say a film looks boring. Avengers looks boring because every shot that isn't an action scene is just characters standing around talking snark in the same voice with the camera motionless. The action scenes are more of the same but with the odd practical explosion and a lot of poo poo CGId into the background to make it look interesting.

    There are action films, blockbusters and even other comic book films out this year that so far have shown to do a better job than Avengers and the annoying part is that none of them needed 5 films to build up to that point.

    No, it's a case of having taken a film class, I think.

    I really wish I could say more but I'm getting really tired of the conversation going in circles between people who understand how film works and notice the movie is kinda small and confined and has boring camera work, and people who yell "BUT THERE ARE EXPLOSIONS AND STIRRING MUSIC"

    i hate goons so fucking much

    Luckily, their opinion has absolutely zero effect on my enjoyment of the film and the franchise itself, much like how that guy was bitching about Hawkeye's bow proficiency.

    Plus, you know, they haven't seen more than five or six minutes of footage out of a two hour film. If I was taking their opinions into account, I'd at least wait until they've seen the full movie.

    Is "boringly shot" even something that you can see from a trailer? I mean I guess you could have problem with the composition of the shot but it looked pretty fine.

    Aggravation is the most reliable genuine emotion one can incite on the internet, or almost anywhere else for that matter.

    Good work, Goons! Your efforts to increase people talking online about the Avengers movie is working!

    Can't wait to see this movie, and the eventual sequels. I'm more excited to see what kind of easter eggs they work into it. Marvel movies have been pretty good about that so far.

    This requires a very strict definition of "god"

    dude has vast powers and control over natural forces and was worshipped by people

    totally a god
