@left4lol:
For the sake of clarity about the film plot, could some one give a recap about
@left4lol:
! Loki's plan, why would he need to get caught why he suddenly appear at the beginning, why he tries to invade the earth,etc. because i don't quite catch it the first time and i don't intend to seeing it again until the Blu-ray comes out
! I believe it's because he knew that the idea of the Avengers sticking together and fighting him posed a real threat to his plan, so he want to get caught so he could mess with all of their minds and so that they'd argue and break down as a team.
After seeing the movie, I'm pretty much in the same boat with everyone else. Numerous favorite lines, scenes, actors, etc. I'll admit, 4 years ago when it was confirmed in Iron Man that there was an Avengers movie to be made, I worried that this movie would have so much build up, and then flop. With 4 years of hints and teases, you'd have a ton of pressure to make sure this was good. This movie could have been a total disaster and definitely had the recipe for one, but thankfully the directors and producers knew what they were doing with this movie. Apparently Whedon grew up with these characters and knew them in and out, and it definitely showed! I can imagine he had quite a bit of fun writing this movie, it's like if he was 5 and someone threw him a bunch of Marvel action figures and told him to simply "play", except this time he's 47 years old and offers something that everyone can enjoy.
This movie came across to me as more of a character movie than a plot movie, as it focused on the character's interactions and growth as the plot unravels. Whedon wrote these characters for what they were.
Cap and Iron Man? You're darn right Cap and Iron Man aren't going to see eye-to-eye easily, their personalities clash.
Hulk in the city? You better believe he's gonna smash it up like it's his playground!
In terms of plot, it seemed kinda simple, but it's hardly a negative in my mind because I didn't really expect or needed a mind-bending plot to be wowed by. I still came out of the theatre with my mind blown.
What I really appreciated about the film was that it didn't waste it's time on a lot of epic moments that could've easily been abused by slow mo, but wasn't. If Zach Snyder was the director, this movie would've been an hour longer with all the slow mo. I only remember key moments being reasonably slow mo, like
! Thor's hammer and cap's shield clashing, or Black Widow being chased by a charging Hulk, breaking through a narrow corridor.
! Also, that whole scene with Hulk's first transformation and Black Widow being pursued was done really well, I thought. I was legitimately scared. Wouldn't you be, if you were stuck in claustrophobic areas on a flying hovercraft with a raging, oversized green ape after you?
The moments would just happen in the heat of action, and the movie moved on. I kept going "Wow! Did you see th- Whoa, now that was coo- Oh my gosh, did he jus- WHHAAAAT?!?" Some of them happened quickly and subsequently that it alone makes you want to see the movie again, which I definitely will, provided I find the time.
Tim Story, I hope you saw this movie, and see where you went wrong with your Fantastic Four films. You had 4 main characters to work with (5 counting Dr. Doom), and Whedon had nearly double that, and his film was so much better, it's not even funny. You even had the talent of Chris Evans on board, which was the only good thing about your films.
This was definitely a fun movie, and I'd probably say it's my all time favorite movie, but I'll have to wait to for the "Just-saw-it" hype to die down to properly judge it as so. Either way, it sure as heck is the most entertaining movie I've seen!
And as for the post credit scene (the super duper special one that you wait 5 minutes for):
! Cap's expression throughout the whole thing just killed me xD
