Avengers-not as good as you think it is.

[electric_sheep]

It's kinda sacrilage to say that you don't like the Avengers, that it's kinda ungreatfull, well i don't care.
You would think that a movie with 5 superheroes could never be boring, boy where you wrong. This was dull, generic, cliche non engaging and overall forgettable...
It feels like an episode of a TV series with a big budget. The writing is horrible, Josh Weadon tries to make everyone witty and it doesn't work. All the character depth from the previous movies, well forget about that it's like watching cardboard cutouts and you don't give a **** about what's going on. Loki is a joke of a villain, nothing about him is menacing or smart or anything really, he is such a non presence in the movie that it brings a generic movie even lower because you don't feel fear for any character ever. Josh you are not Tarantino, how about next time you write the characters a little better instead of making everybody cocky? There's way to much **** in this movie...

Cannot disagree more. I'm sure you can direct this frustration somewhere else and be productive at the same time? You're entitled to your opinions but I feel like this post was meant to incite argument based on the language used.

I saw it and everything from the characters and action scenes/effects were awesome. I just couldn't get engaged in the story, though. Eh, I never liked superheroes anyway...

Not really, i get why people like it and i don't hate it (unlike TDK or Amazing Spiderman) I just don't think it's very good.

I enjoyed the Avengers, When you get a bunch of Superheroes from the different movies together, you will expect a lot of action. As for the story, By watching all the other marvel movies, It helps built up the story that will happen in the movie. With everything that happened in The Winter Soldier, and Agents of Shield. You kind of get a sense of what the story will be like in Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Is it May 2012 again?

Well yeah, it is. But if you detach yourself from all the hype and media and nostalgia, just look at the movie as just a movie, it doesen't really stand up..

Well, it is a big crossover event. That's why we have the individual movies.

I don't like it either.

I know I'm in the minority and don't get me wrong I thought it was good but far from anything special. Sure it was cool to see the Avengers together in a movie and it had some funny lines but overall it didn't do anything special. The first Iron Man and Batman Begins are still the superior superhero movies, Avengers only ranks higher than the other run of the mill superhero movies which I might like but it doesn't get me all excited.

Holy crap someone actually is capable of making worse topics than Cubed.

Lesson number 1: Don't make a topic to tell people how much you hate something that others like. It's a colossal dick move.

Avengers might be a little overrated but its still a good entertaining movie with great performances by the actors and great action.

Dissenting opinions from sdp too!? This thread has it all!

[ZariusTwo]

I don't mind, but it IS overrated and truth be told none of Marvel's movies are shakespere but unfortunatly their stupid aspie fanboys will try to convince you the emperor isnt naked. It's a bit pathetic really. Everyone grows up eventually, and when you do, that's when you watch and appreciate a DC product more.

Marvel comics thrive more on story than action.

Not really. Outside of Thor and Cap, which are essential for certain points, you could have told the Phase I story in a minimal amount of time, it certaingly isnt as detailed as Phase II's films have been, which in my mind will just hurt these films as they become more smug and self-referential. People care more about post-credit scenes than they do about the f*cking actual movie.

With everything that happened in The Winter Soldier, and Agents of Shield. You kind of get a sense of what the story will be like in Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Winter Soldier is all that's been required of Phase II so far. Agents of SHIELD is boring as f*ck.

Too bad no one can just say "I dislike this thing" anymore. Now it has to be "I hate this thing and everyone else who likes it is dumb".

You are wrong. It did start slow, but the latest episodes have been exciting as hell.
