Nata mutters "Bozhe moi!" which in Russian means "Oh, God."
Ah! Thank you for the correction. Guess I just have a dirty mind. (ScarJo in some of those outfits tends to bring out my inner perv. )Jonathan Perregaux said:Nata mutters "Bozhe moi!" which in Russian means "Oh, God."
I left after the mid-credits scene as well, but I left because the rock music started playing so loud I couldn't stand it, louder than any explosion in the whole movie. Maybe it was just the theater I was at, but it was uncomfortable. I almost always watch all the credits and enjoy the music, but not this time.Colin Jacobson said:I admit I left after the "mid-credits" scene. I stupidly thought that was it and that there'd be no further tag.
I also figured that if I missed something, I'd see it eventually on BD so it wasn't a big deal!
If they had gotten up after the first post credits scene, I could forgive them a little. But people got up as soon as the music and credits started flashing.Toddwrtr said:I think in this case, many thought they had already seen the stinger.
No kidding. I nearing got assaulted after seeing Green Lantern because some inconsiderate parents brought a 1 year old to the movie during opening weekend, and sat next to me. Of course, the kid is hitting me the whole time and crying out at several key points of the movie (including the quiet scenes at the end.) While several people voiced their displeasure about the kid being there, I was the only one they could identify when I suggested they leave the kid at home next time.Brian Dobbs said:That sucks man. Stupid kids at my showing were talking at that part too. After Cap lifts up the next punching bag this stupid kid spoke very loudly, "That's heavy!" His mom shushed him, but still, if you bring your dumb kids to the theater they have to understand that they are not allowed to talk. Stupid kids.
sat through MIB3 credits with a few diehards, only to be disappointed by getting nothing. I see why people don't stay. You never know if there will be something extra, and credits are mostly a waste of time after the cast list.Chip_HT said:If they had gotten up after the first post credits scene, I could forgive them a little.

Except that every Marvel Studios movie has an extra scene. That's what I was getting at. After four or five other movies (I can't remember if Hulk had it or not), one would think that people would have figured it out by now to stay to the end.DaveF said:sat through MIB3 credits with a few diehards, only to be disappointed by getting nothing.

I also didn't think the Hulk was handled very well. As you say, in the first transformation, he's a mindless force of destruction, trying to kill Black Widow (a friend) and causing all sorts of damage to the ship that was already in danger. Then later, he's relatively calm and listening to direction from the rest of the team.DaveF said:Finally: the hulk. Huh? To start he's viewed as a wholly dangerous, uncontrolled animal. At the end, he's a team player taking orders. With no character transition between. Hulk smash is fun to watch but ...see "story" vs "personalities".

The Avengers movie series could feature Spider-Man at some point in the future, according to Amazing Spider-Man producer Avi Arad.
The studio executive said it would be "great" for both Sony and Disney if the franchises were to merge, adding that it may be "possible" if the right story came along, Crave Online reports.
"Everything is possible," said Arad. "If something like that happens, it's great for Disney, it's great for Sony. If the right story comes in, we are now working on Venom first.
"It's our first out. So our thinking is in the right direction. Avengers to me was an expected success so I never looked at it because Avengers was successful."
It was previously reported that a Venom movie could spin out of The Amazing Spider-Man, with Chronicle helmer Josh Trank rumored to be attached as director.
However, there have been several reports downplaying the possibility of Spider-Man teaming up with the Avengers for a big-screen crossover.
That possibility may still exist...at least at one point Fox was also considering Trank to reboot "The Fantastic Four." I doubt he would be able to do both, but I don't think he's firmly attached to either yet. I would rather see another shot at FF before Venom myself.TonyD said:A Venom movie. Meh although I would love to see that guy direct a real superhero movie.
Yes, there was that -- but Hulk was the only one nearly killing friendlies, though all were affected. But with that and the opening act, with Black Widow treating Banner / Hulk like a rabid dog, and it's conveyed that Hulk is out of control and amoral: he smashes indiscriminately. Then third act, he's team player. There's a story arc missing.Originally Posted by Patrick Sun /t/278084/avengers-movie-thread/270#post_3937186
I think it was a combo of being under the influence of Loki's staff, and then getting hurt from the attack by Hawkeye and his crew that caused Hulk to act more irrationally initially towards Black Widow, etc. But once Banner was not under the control of Loki's staff later in the film, he's more in control of Hulk, with purposeful rampage, as it was alluded to in "The Incredible Hulk" that Banner was finally in control of the Hulk's actions (the green glint in Ed Norton's eyes at the end of the film).
