I am so happy this trailer is finally out, and I think it explains the movie pretty well. The Avengers is directed by Joss Whedon, who’s most famous for his work on Buffy: the Vampire Slayer. With him behind the wheel, I think we can expect great things from this movie. It looks fun, action packed, and a great start for all the heroes we love and enjoy coming together in one epic movie of badassness.
And Loki is everywhere! But maybe that only makes me happy because I love his character.
Though there is one point in the trailer where Black Widow just looks as though she’s posing for the camera with an explosion behind her. And that bugs me, but hey, at least she’s clothed. I just hope she doesn’t fall into the same trap as all the other female superheroes do. But considering Joss Whedon’s work with female characters in the past, I think she’ll be fine.
I can only hope that Mark Ruffalo can carry the part of Bruce Banner as well as Edward Norton did. It upsets me that they couldn’t get Norton to continuing playing the part for whatever reason, but hey, I doubt Ruffalo would have been brought in had he been anything but an amazing actor.
Check it out, and tell me what you think.
