Ultimate Avengers II

The sequel to the sub-par overrated first movie is released August 8th

The movie centers on Black Panther, the alien invaders from the first movie, and the death of a major character. Also scheduled to appear are The Hulk and War Machine in a very different way that some would think.

Spoilers are already leaking from advanced screenings held on July 26th, for those of you who don't want to know, don't read below

Spoiler:
War Machine is just another suit of armour for Stark, The Hulk escapes SHEILD and heads into the desert at the conclusion, the Panther hints at joining the Avengers, and Hank Pym dies

I just think the Black Panther being in it sucks. I mean...what an awful character. I really liked the first one though.

The first movie was s*it, seriously, it does'nt even compare to Mask of the Phantasm or Return of the Joker, all it is is a VERY water-downed variation on the Ultimates, and Hank's existence is patently worthless without the crucial addition of the hot streak that leads to his maritial problems, he HAS to beat Janet up or there is'nt any progression forward, that's probably why

Spoiler:
he's killed off

I didn't think the first one sounded that great...

It looked like it had great animation, but it looked kinda dumb to me.

I'm suprised there's a sequel already.

They planned the sequel, and were in the process before the release of the first one.
UA2 is pretty good, if nothing but short. I, again, like Hank. And surprisingly T'Challa is cool, for once. This flick wasn't terrible at all.

Yeah, it's not as bad as the first one, but it's still extremly plain, and the best scenes were with Banner and anytime Stark opened his mouth.

I kind of like the idea that they never show Hank abusing Jan. Its subtle hints, you KNOW it happens, but they never show it, its kind of like them covering it up. If you listen to the strain in their voices, and how Jan acts, her body language, its there.

Still, lack of Hawkeye? WTF.

Here's my review of the movie:

It was a bit underwhelming, but still better than the last installment.
