The Hulk in The Avengers

So I saw Joss Whedon’s The Avengers today (Opening day on Friday, May 4th) and as this was the culmination of all the previous Marvel movies to date as the characters from those movies come together to face off against a global alien threat.  Facing off against Loki and his alien minions are The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man, Thor, & Captain America.

And wow, what a fun movie this was. (My meager movie review)

First up was how fluid it was for all of our characters to meet and have a mild form of conflict in their initial contacts.  The confrontations seemed mature and pointed.  And then coming together to work as a team also felt like a great, fluid plot flow… not forced, not pulled out of the air.  You’ve seen it… where things occur in a movie and you find yourself pondering how that came together!

But there were some moments that were awesome, surprising and depressing, and here, is where I chat about them.

Yes, we won’t be seeing a real movie trailer for the Joss Whedon directed The Avengers for a while.  The movie is due out in May of 2012.  So it will be quite a while.  But a tech-savy fan decided he couldn’t wait and put together his own idea of a movie trailer for The Avengers.

It’s pretty much smart footage pulled together from what trailers have already been released for Thor, Iron Man, Captain America, The Incredible Hulk, with some music from X-Men: First Class.

Trailer is by Yoko Higuchi.
