Wohoo!! Scarlett Johansson looks like a strong, empowered and sexy Black Widow. She is an inspiration to all of us women. I love how she leaps up onto some henchman’s shoulders with her legs wrapped around his face, thrusting him down against the ground. Hahah.. freakin’ fantastic, can’t wait! Man! I feel like a woman!
100M+ opening weekend.
Have we reached the peak of the garbage pile???
Joss Whedon is one of the best writers in tv history. Hell do a great job with the movie.
Why is only just Loki mentioned. From what I’ve heard, the Skrulls and other villains such as The Masters of Evil are also supposed to be involved. It should be a real super villain soiree next summer.

This could be the most anticipated movie since “Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace”.
Seriously…?
It also looks to be as bad as TF3. More Iron Man flying around NOT fighting anything. Awesome. Never saw that before.
Ah, hold your horses, RB. It’s only a teaser.
Jeez…
(-sometimes it’s really embarrassing to admit being a comic book fan. Comic books of the 60s that is, not the absolute unreadable CRAP they publish today. Uuuggh.)
Dude, look at the talent involved. As for the directors, Joss Whedon is no Michael Bay. He actually has imagination and talent. And a brain. I like that they’re holding off on showing the big fights. I hate when trailers show all the good stuff. You can tell they’re majorly holding back here.
Id say this is tracking well. Tom Strong, you are right. Easily 100 mil.
being what? 9 months away from the movie’s release (earlier if you live in Australia woohoo!) this is great news. As far as a teaser trailer goes, it could have been better. they clearly opted for the “show the faces of all the big acting/comic book names” method over “show a glipse of a good story and awesome CGI” method. i hope now they have that out of the way, the real trailer will show of some of Joss’ genius and his sense of humour.
i expect the movie will be awesome, and they have a 9 month gestational period now to really show people how awesome it will be. by starting advertising early, they have given themselves room to really showcase many aspects of the movie.
I hope this movie wipes the floor with all other superhero movies. Then maybe we can get a DC justice league movie? maybe after they redo superman and the next batman?
