Rock Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 What do they say about it being easier to be a delighted pessimist than a disappointed optimist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Lohr Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I'll take your word for it. I remember almost nothing about that movie and absolutely no plans to ever rewatch it. :thumbsdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowDog Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I was talking to Rock. He was super optimistic about that **** and crashed hard once it premiered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Lohr Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Ah, Bach. Yeah, my expectations for that one were pretty middle of the road. And I was still disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Yeah, I've never looked forward to a movie so much in my life - just to get punched in the nuts as hard as Lucas and Spielberg could. Definitely a disappointed optimist to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Cyke Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I would first like to say hi to all those who I know and welcome those that I don't, i pop in and out ever few years.Secondly I would like to say I loved this film, Avengers was a great film to watch and a first as far as all these seperate story lines kind of merging, I may be wrong but its a first as far as i can tell.But there were a couple of things that bothered me about the film, that I cannot get my head around, when Capt america, thor and Iron Man are going at each other in the forest in the mountains, thor hits him with his lighting, which instead of damaging Iron mans suit it gives him 400% power increase(they make a big deal of it by giving it screen time) and then to clarify the big deal they made they have Tony say, "hmmm, interesting" so kind of gives you an idea they will go with this later in the story... and then nothing, even when Iron Man is running out of power and trying to get into the wormhole and then falling, he never goes, Hey thor another lighting bolt, can you strike me again, i need the power. second bit that bothered me was the big secret that banner had about keeping calm and not turning into hulk, after building it up throughout the film he says, "I am aways angry" errr ok, they why are you not always hulk or if he can control it why turn into hulk on board the ship??? Sorry if they were brought up before I did go a few pages through and couldnt find the references but would like other peoples opinions on this... again i did enjoy the film but these did kind of stick out as unfinshed or misplaced?

Phil_Muzza Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 With the Iron Man thing I could only say that maybe he was too pre-occupied dealing with a giant nuclear missile to think about a lightning bolt, they might make use of the power up in future films though. With the Hulk thing I think of it as Banner being able to change himself anytime he wants, however he is never in control of the Hulk and also still changes sometimes without his control. The end of Incredible Hulk made me think that he can now change at will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I think of it like a werewolf curse-- with practice, he can change at will and have some control-- but a full moon, or in banners case getting mad, will bring out the beast unhinged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I imagine the "I'm always angry" bit was one of the things that bothered Edward Norton, too. I thought it was out of character, but it worked so well with the general vibe off the movie I easily let it slide.

Cerina Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Am I the only one who thinks it's probably a bad idea to aim a lightning bolt at a nuclear warhead? Especially when your teammate/friend is currently attached to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Choc Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Wait, they hired the guy who directed Scott Pilgrim (one of the very very worst movies I've ever seen) to direct one of these things. Ughh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you a robot? Is amazeballs good or bad? It was so awful, I couldn't even watch it. I mean I get it, video games. Shaun of the Dead is pretty good though.

Ixion Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Re: Hulk on the Hellicarrier. When Loki first boards the ship he smiles at Banner who suddenly has to rub his eyes and looks in discomfort, then Black Widow says "Loki is manipulating you" to Banner, and Banner ends up raising Loki's staff just moments before he turns into the Hulk. So he might be able to control it but in that case he was being manipulated by Loki, which was Loki's plan and reason for being captured. Black Widow: "Loki means to unleash the Hulk."

Darth_Cyke Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I still thought they made to much of a bit deal of the power up not to have it worked into the ending, oh wells, still a good film.The hulk thing does not sit well with me but I can at least make more sense of it.
