So... This is a positive review, right? Because I walk away from it thinking "wait till download."

A qualified positive review, I guess, yes?

Mrs. McGraw and I saw it on Saturday as part of our anniversary entertainment glut. We both thought it was fine, but not great.

Nice head's up on the cube-thing being Thor related, RC! We missed that one and the reference.

Ghost Rider is one of my favorite superheroes, which made how badly the first movie blew chunks something of a personal tragedy for me.

I'm hoping this one will be better.

Did I just watch Green Lantern or a Fifth Element rip off?

Or did Fifth Element rip off the comics?

Either way -- Green Lantern sucks.

I skipped it after a guy I know who is a huge Green Lantern fan told me it blew.

Do we not have an Avengers topic all by itself?  Anyway...here is the new trailer.

You know how I know I'm getting old? Instead of getting me super stoked, trailers like this annoy me because I don't know what the story is about. And I suppose with something like this, there's no point. "Superhero Team-Up" is all the filmmakers are banking on.

Same as Transformers, same as Iron Man, same as.....but in the end I'll still see it and probably enjoy it.

Oh, I'll see it. I'm just tired of trailers that assume I recognize the source material and don't tell me what the friggin' movie is about. The recent teasers for The Dark Knight Rises and The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo are other recent offenders.

I don't agree RC -- the Avengers trailer is perfect.

So I didn't know this until I saw the trailer on TV tonight.  I don't really consider myself a purist or a racist, but Samuel L. as Nick Fury is just plain bullshit. 

Lou Ferrigno as HULK voice?  Good call.

They need to take a five year break after this one.

With Iron Man 3, Thor 2, and Captain America 2 already in the pipeline? Perish the thought.
