he says “it still might suck”. What kind of a way is that to sell a movie? It makes no sense to me. I understand your point that he’s saying they are doing everything possible to make it great but chances are that it will disappoint many people because there are always complainers. I just feel it was an unnecessary thing to say. Keep it simple and say we are doing everything we can to make this work. He sounds like he doubts the directors he is working with and even in his own ability to make this happen for the franchises. I want someone confident creating this monster of a movie and I want to know that we have the right person taking the reigns. The Avengers could possibly become one of the most hyped movies of all time, even surpassing Avatar in terms of hype, and it needs to be handled with care.

I hope I don’t sound argumentative but I get serious when it comes to The Avengers. If I had to pick one movie out of everything coming out in the next 5 to 10 years that I wanted to just be absolutely awesome it would be The Avengers. I would pick it over a possible third Batman movie, a fourth Spiderman movie and even the third movie to my favorite franchise of all time (but not best movies) the Transformers.

Hope that makes sense – it’s kind of late here and I haven’t had much sleep over the past 3 days with the Philadelphia Phillies being in the World Series. Go Phils!

No no, that’s not accurate.

Zak Penn is working a balancing act in writing this incredibly complex project. He is continually going back and forth between what each director and team is doing with their movie to make it all mesh together and make it work well.

He says it’s very ambitious, very difficult and that it could be amazing but it could also suck. I think Favs said something along those lines too.

Here’s the exact quote:

“It’s hard to make a good movie… We all have the best intentions, and it still might suck.”

Neither are saying it will suck.

I like your ideas, especially Thor’s spectacular arrival on Earth at the end of IM 2. That would be wicked cool, indeed.

why is zak penn handling the movie if he thinks it will suck? What an idiot. Get rid of him!

Yeah, I thought the same thing. As long as I get my Avengers movie, the world CAN end. What will be the point of living after witnessing such greatness?

Iron Man 2 will be great enough but Avengers? Nothing could possibly EVER top that.

To get back on track the guys behind these films have already stated that the Avengers are going to save the world, not just defend themselves or a city, the entire planet.
