Hulk (Ang Lee)



I thought the movie was extremely dull during the middle. That's especially not good given that I also felt many scenes were rushed. I would probably fall asleep if I were watching the extended cut. I thought the last scene and the intro scene were awesome, and the after-credits teaser was epic. Overall I thought it was an "okay" movie; definitely good for a one-time-only watch, but nothing more.



The only disappointing thing for me was the end credit scene, otherwise it was pretty entertaining and the jokes didn't come off like iron man 3 bad and were actually very funny and fit the characters well.
Like when Scarlett witch plays with Thor's mind and he's like "The human woman tried to mess with mind but fortunately I am mighty" *then walks right into a hallucination * its comedy that works with the character.

Thor is often the funniest person because his naive nature to cultural norms.  Comforting Banner about how he killed men well, to then alter it that he back peddles to injuring their quad muscles was a nice bit for example.

They are not made by Marvel Studio

 

And yes Daredevil the tv show makes Avengers 2 look like something made by 2 monkeys

Well, you only said "Worst Marvel ever.". For all I knew, you were talking about the comics universe.

 

You're entitled to your opinion.  I thought both Thor movies, the first Captain America, a cope of Iron Man, and incredible Hulk were all worse, though.

Just found it amazing how Hawkeye's quiver is always full. Guess that's a magic quiver. Also what's he and black widow on the Avengers they are so weak and just stick out in my opinion.

The design of it doesn't help. Hawkeye in the comics just has a large quiver, not a techno one that attaches different arrows, the arrows already exists and he uses them in reservation, he's an extremely skilled hand to hand fighter and in close quaters it's unlikely he'd use an arrow so much.

It was a fun two and a half hours but my gf enjoyed it more than me. The film was all over the place attempting to cram in too much comic book history.

I'm a DC fan, too. I didn't like them making Hawkeye the Green Arrow of the team (moral compass amongst gods). Cap is the moral compass! Hawkeye is the guy that thinks he should be the leader!

When DC finally makes the jla movie, there isn't going to be a lot of ground left to cover because Marvel is doing things that DC did first in comics, first on the big screen. It's going to look like they copied Marvel.

I think they were more going for Hawkeye is there to keep them grounded, didn't really work as Ironman still created Ultron. :P

I didn't think it looked stupid at all. In fact it made a lot of sense black widow feels like she's a horrible monster that needs to pay for her past sins. She probably feel like she can be close to the hulk who is also dealing with very similar issues. It was kind of out of nowhere but I just felt like we were supposed to assume they grew close as they worked together.

My big dissappoint was that Ultron just didn't feel nearly as epic/world threatening as Loki + glowing gem + alien invasion. I feel like Ultron could have been in the last iron man movie and they could have made that a lot better.

I can understand that but it's very out of place still for me.

Ultron as a Ironman only villain would have basically been an insult. Ultron is not a Ironman villain for one, he is an Avengers' villain created by a character a character not even in this film. They might have also lost a lot of the guilt meant to surround the creation of Ultron (which lacked in Stark's character anyway) but in his own film, they couldn't have Stark being non-cool for 90 minutes because he's riddled with guilt over something he created that is attacking his friends. And no threat if it's his film and his friends aren't in it.



Hmm, pie.

Black Widow is such a slut.

^^There was plenty of Hulk action, but I agree, not enough badass scenes for Thor.

I actually think Thor's moments were better than some of the others. It was a case of trying to get all these actors in there to fill screen time but he played the "I'm a god compared to you guys." well, like going after Ultron after the first encounter, showing threats to Tony for what he'd done and bringing Vision to life. The comedy surrounding him (and the hammer) was very... well, we've been there done that. Whedon is Whedon though.
