3d was ok for me besides the flying alien things imo.
Sounds pretty offensive to charge people for 3-4 scenes of use.

I really wanted to see it in 2D, but there werent any showing for that. Luckily the 3d for this movie didnt destroy it, but at the same time it added shit all to the visuals.
But why not just do it in general? Could've been a cool moment.
Just seems odd is was completely ignored/forgotten.
I don't think Stark ever told Thor it powered him so Thor wasn't even thinking about it.

Three extra bucks, reserved seating. I'll live.
Wrong. It was distracting in a lot of scenes. You have to learn how to deal with it by focusing on what you're supposed to be focused on instead of the things popping out.
For example, in one camera angle, there was a streetlight in the foreground popping out from one of the corners of the screen. Just that one tip of a streetlight. It was distracting as hell.
This movie made me vow to not watch another action movie in 3D movie again.
Also I'm pretty sure there's some sort of conspiracy to upsell 3D tickets. When I was there the lady was like "oh the 2D one is getting kind of full, want to watch the next showing which happens to be in 3D?" I've seen other people in this thread giving the same story too.
Avengers 3D is not bad at all, I really didn't get any cardboard cut-out panorama vibe from it.
His jetpacks.
Yea, it would have been a cool team move. They showed another cool one which was ironman/cap but it was only for like 1 second. Wish they focused on these more in the movie.

I had absolutely no problems. So it's not wrong in my experience. Sucks you didn't have the same experience.
I figured, but why would he need to eject them?
Maybe they're fuel dependent and get discarded when exhausted?
I mentioned this a bit back. Not a good thing or a bad thing, just 'unusual' for a movie to set something up and never knock it down like that.
Scene not getting enough love - the climax where Tony Stark stares into outer space, sees the massive army base followed by a nuclear explosion. His eyes growing huge, just staring. I'm pretty sure the music became really quiet at that point.
I forget if the nuclear blast had a "boom" sound or if they did the Serenity "no sounds in space" thing.

Indeed, I was surprised at this, too. Of course, the ones missing the second stinger weren't missing much more than a hilarious brick joke, but still, after missing the stinger in the first Iron Man, I've made it a point of staying in my seat until the last credit is out of sight.
Although I feel bad for thinking the first stinger showed the Red Skull instead of Thanos. I dunno, I'd assumed he'd been teleported to another plane of existence by the Tesseract at the end of Captain America, and I guess I was just looking for confirmation. In retrospect he didn't look anything like the Red Skull...
Also, I know we all know about this gaffe, but nevertheless:
The 3D was completely unintrusive in my IMAX viewing. It added nothing to the experience, but the best thing I can say about it was that I forgot I was wearing the glasses at some point.
Holy shit.
Completely out of juice. His HUD dies as well.
We got a 1%er here.
Whedon was originally going to film The Avengers with 3D cameras, but after he had so many problems with them while filming the Thor after-credits scene, he went with regular cameras.
yea, saw that already. good review but I wish he went full spoilers.

So glad I "failed" to see this opening night like I wanted to... word of mouth got to me... never ended up seeing it in theaters. When I got around to watching it on blu-ray my expectations were so low and.... still.... oh god, venom... what have they done...Spiderman 3
will never forgive myself for contributing to this

It definitely had the boom. I can't help but notice sounds in every space scene of every movie I see.

If we're gonna post stills from the fxguide article...
Also, for those wondering about the sorts of things Whedon was involved with during cg production, there's an example of it in the fxpodcast around the 15 min mark in terms of animating Hulk.

It felt like that as soon as the corny chitauri enemy started speaking (I think that was the beginning?)
Definitely a Power Rangers movie, not that it's a bad thing.

I left early on purpose, because the previous movies taught me that the short post-credits scene are not really worth it most of the time, and I have no remorse seeing them on youtube when I have paid for the movie.
Most of them are just teasers, the only one that was funny enough was after Iron Man 2 (with Stark discussing his evaluation IIRC). I may have regretted missing the shawarma scene, but since I'm not in the US I would have missed it anyway.

It's funny cause Hulk looks more like Ruffalo than Eric Bana or Ed Norton, great job Whedon on the casting call for him
haha, indeed.

It pains me that Deadpool is pretty much dead on the water and therefore we won't get to see Bob Agent of Hydra.
See, I don't buy this complaint. Like, not one bit.
You had to know going into this movie that none of the Avengers would die. Now, the SHIELD agents were expendable, and they did die. Coulson died, there was the Thor joke of Loki being adopted, and it was heavily hinted there were a ton of civilian casualties after the final battle. The stakes were high for the mere mortals.
There was the Loki/Stark scene where Loki tossed him out the window. And near the end of the final battle, it was clear the Avengers were losing (Hulk being showered in missles, IM running low on power, Cap (who was clearly injured) & Thor being surrounded, and the only way the Avengers really survived/won the battle was IM diverting the nuke.
So yeah, I don't buy your complaint. It's a comic book movie. Of course the Avengers weren't going to die, and would eventually win.
I didn't notice it until my 2nd viewing. It does happen so quick.
I've seen it twice in 3D, and the 3D doesn't add anything. I didn't mind the 3D, but was disappointed that it do anything for the film. It was just "there"
They always base it off the actor's face. Watch the first two again, it looks like Bana in 1 and Norton in 2. Would be weird if it DIDN'T look like Ruffalo.

This is the first Hulk to actually use the actor directly in creating the look in terms of scans, capture, etc. The fxguide podcast goes into detail about it.
