Re: The Avengers: The Motion Picture Discussion Thread

Not sure if this has been posted yet. AMC is planning on having a marathon leading to the Avengers movie. My opinion on this is that spending four hours in the movie theater is already to much let alone twelve.

I'm tempted to do this but I would have to take 2 days off work and that I just can't do really.

If my local theater doesn't have it in 3D, I'll make the drive to one that does. I saw the 3D trailer at the IMAX last week and it looked fantastic.

Was EVERYTHING in 3D in the trailer??? Or were only certain aspects of it in 3D ???
 
Re: The Avengers: The Motion Picture Discussion Thread

so would you recommend it in 3d?? im usually a bit hesitant with 3d
 
Re: The Avengers: The Motion Picture Discussion Thread

Hell no i hate 3d. Hope there is Imax on this but in 2D. Wich i doubt though. Sux
 
Re: The Avengers: The Motion Picture Discussion Thread

IMAX will be 3D. I'll be there for sure.

I can't go so far as to recommend seeing it in 3D at a regular theater, but if you can do IMAX then I would suggest it. I've seen that trailer many times over, but in 3D on that giant screen, it was a whole new experience.

Unless they spent way more time converting the trailer and it's not representative of the entire finished film. But if everything looks as great as the trailer, the movie is going to be tons of fun at the IMAX.

The Three-Hour Avengers
Whedon says 45 minutes were shaved from the initial cut.
March 12, 2012
by Max Nicholson
It's reasonable to think that a film headlining four thoroughly established superheroes would demand a monstrous running time to accommodate the equally large personalities of the characters. And initially, Joss Whedon's Avengers did indeed clock in at a robust three hours. But in a recent interview, the director revealed that the final cut of the film will deliver a much more reasonable running time of two hours and 15 minutes.


"I had always intended to go over two, under two and a half," Whedon told Collider at the SXSW Film Festival. "There was no way a movie with this many great actors and this much epic scope was gonna clock in under two and not feel a little anemic. Somebody wasn't gonna get their moment if that happened. But at the same time, I get very angry that romantic comedies run over two hours long. It's like, 'Guys, that's not okay.' More isn't more. I don't want anything in the movie that shouldn't be."


More Marvels The Avengers Videos

So with 45 minutes hitting the cutting room floor, what are we really missing out on? Says Whedon, "There's a lot of me that got cut out, but I think part of the process in a situation like this is you make the movie, you make your movie, then you remove yourself out of the equation. At some point you stop looking beyond The Avengers movie, at your own stuff... You go, 'You know what, The Avengers are more important than I am so these things that I'm obsessed with aren't necessarily moving the story forward, and therefore they are baggage.'"

Unfortunately, Whedon said that a three-hour director's cut was not in the cards for The Avengers Blu-ray or DVD releases. However, he did note that we should expect to see some "extraordinary extras" as a result.
