Since Hulk came to movie theaters I’ve always wondered, more like hoped, they would make an Avengers movie. The superhero movies of late have been hit-or-miss, usually squashing about ten years worth of comic book content into an hour-and-a-half of *shudder* Jennifer Love Hewitt. Personally, I prefer unknowns performing superhero roles. I don’t need the attributes of a known actor splayed over an already infamous character. For example, did anyone actually see Catwoman in Catwoman? There was too much Halle Berry to watch. That being said, I think Patrick Stewart was a good pick for Xavier, and…hmm…Robert Downey Jr. was okay too. I worry about Scarlett Johansen as Black Widow. Could they not find a hot Russian? The Iron Man flicks and Hulk were good. I didn’t even see Thor or Captain America because no one said they were worth seeing. Whether Avengers lives up to the best of them, or even the cartoon movie, remains to be seen.
