When the first trailer for “The Avengers” was released, I was less than impressed. Now that about 95 additional versions have made their way to the public’s prying eyes (okay, this is probably only the third I’ve seen, but still), I’ve found one that tells a little bit more of the story.
Unlike the original, this trailer draws me in from the start. The explosives/military action was just about the only thing I appreciated from the first, and that scene is extended here.
Props for that, but then I start to fall asleep a little bit. The trailer then goes on to feature a little bit about each superhero, which I can appreciate more than the messy montage we were given previously. However, there’s far too much ScarJo, who should not be involved in this project in the first place.
After the two minutes and thirty seconds are over, I am still left somewhat unsatisfied. Is it just me? Are any of you excited for this movie?

I agree, it seems a bit….empty. It’s a lot more dramatic than the first one, which is good, since the first was just showing off and downright trying to be badassed. Not that this one wasn’t, but it was better and created some tension. But the ending was very unsatisfying and pretty abrupt. Although, tension, again.
I’m a bit exited about this movie, but I don’t expect anything special? I don’t know, I don’t think they can pull of an awesome plot to this movie. And the mixing of so many different aspects (norse mythology, science, robots, rangers, etc.) confuse me…can you really fit all of that into a movie and still make it work?
And is it only me or does the flying-robot-thingy in the ending remind me of the worm thing that crushes buildings from Transformers 3?
The flying robot thing is definitely reminiscent of that moment from “Transformers 3,” but honestly, said snake thing was the only part I remotely liked about that movie.
All in all, I’ll probably end up seeing “The Avengers,” I just don’t think I’ll ever be nearly as amped about it as the rest of the general population.
