Even Renner didn't care for his role in this movie. He said it wasn't what he signed on for.

I hadn't heard that. Did he feel he didn't get enough screentime or did he not like the fact that Hawkeye was a villain for the middle of the film?

what did renner expect?

He didn't expect to be a "zombie" bad guy for most of the movie.

Hmmm. Well Hawkeye was never going to be my favo(u)rite Avenger but I actually thought his temporary villain role made him seem like a real threat and a badass.

Good point, this allowed him a fairly large role, without it, he would have been pretty marginalized.

And arguably it was then more satisfying when he was back in control of himself and fighting alongside the other Avengers. You perhaps root for him even more to start kicking bad guy ass which he does.

There are some good deleted scenes that shed more light on Hawkeye when he's under Loki's control. You get a hint that, while he wasn't himself, he was in conflict and didn't shoot Fury in the head because he was trying to fight it.

If you consider 11 minutes total screen time a large role.

Anyway, I liked the different Avengers for different reasons. But I loved them best as a whole team.

I'm like Nam. I would like to see the back story of Hawkeye and Widow.

Though I think it'd make for an awesome espionage flick like Bourne or even Ronin, sadly I think we're the only ones who care, Weeniepoo.

Hawkeye was a bad guy first in the comics before joining the Avengers anyway.

He was really good as a bad guy, though you're right. Next to all the others he'll never get a fair amount of screentime. It would be better for him to star in a smaller movie ala Thor, but with a much larger part. He deserves that much now.

Given Thor's statement in Thor about humans deifying what they don't understand, I'd say the scene with Hulk was wholly appropriate and developed perfectly. Though they refer to Asgardians as gods (Loki even refers to himself as such), per Thor's own admission, they are not.

Loki mockingly opts to "test" Thor's "immortality" while he was trapped in the holding cell. It's clear at this point that they are super advanced space humans and not gods, which I am also grateful for. I suppose it helps that Whedon is an atheist here.

I thought he did alright. Isn't Loki a semi-god? Captain America is a human super soldier. And besides which, if anything, Loki got humiliated too much in this film. Pwned mid-sentence by Coulson with his gun, pwned mid-smug grin by exploding arrow from Hawkeye, thoroughly and comprehensively pwned by Hulk. How much asskicking do you give to your most prominent villain before he ceases to be in any way impressive as a villain.

Cap did do alright, which can be a problem when the big three are stellar. Evans work on TFA was really good, but I think he benefited alot from the how the movie was set up. Back in the 40's a 6'0 guy was pretty tall, now it's almost high average. His undersized digital self helped accentuate his physique, but now thanks to the sheer size of Hulk, Thor and Iron Man suited up (and RDJ on lifts besides) I see some basic flaws in the way he carries himself.

His mannerisms come off as a bit beta and he's reduced to relying on generic superhero posturing (furrowed brow, tilted chin) which might be good enough for the Rocketeer, but Cap should be way more intimidating and in control. I'm not saying we need a taller/buffer actor (though that would probably help), but he needs to look and act tougher.

Out of all the beatdowns in the movie, Stark's referring to Cap as "useless" during one of their bickering sessions was the worst. At least you could laugh at Loki and Thor's run-ins with Hulk. But that one remark was so incredibly disrespectful that when Cap leaves the room without making sure Stark was put in his place, he lost serious leadership points there.

I forgot how many comical moments are in this movie.

I love it when Loki taps Stark's arc reactor thingy and says "This usually works..", then Stark replies "performance issues?"

Not sure that really had anything to do with it. Don't forget Cap's line before he jumps out of the Quinjet, after Iron Man.

Absolutely. In the film's commentary, I like how Whedon admitted his atheism while explaining that he added that line because it felt appropriate for the character. Though he did admit to a strange predilection for throwing Asgardians out of frame. I think we need to clone him!

Re: After seeing "The Avengers" again on Blu Ray/DVD, who is your favourite Avenger?

Hawkeye was the worst avenger, and probably the worst character in the whole movie, Agents Coulson and Hill were more interesting than him, he sucked.

I like renner usually but in this movie I totally hated Hawkeye,

I would not care about a full movie about him, that would be a waste of a good Marvel movie, when there are so many other characters that need introductions and such,

I am okay with having Hawkeye in other movies, perhaps tell his story, but I really do not wish they give him his own movie

Hence why I'd hope for Widow to co-star.

I think I would rather see a Black Widow movie, with some Hawkeye in it,
but not the other way around, if that makes any sense,
Black Widow is more likable than Hawkeye, so he should not be the focus of the movie

To each his own. Thanks for the good chuckle at least.
