Looks like 2012 will be the year of the comic book in movies - - The Avengers, Spider-Man reboot, and Batman-TDKR. I would think that 2012 will be one of the top five biggest years ever for the movie industry.Grab your popcorn. |

Not impressed. I was expecting to see a modern-day Emma Peel, got blue beams, Russian spies and flying cars instead. Cut the stream after about 20 minutes, couldn't take it anymore. |

No, it was the new one (2012) ... obviously shot with a camera in a theater - you can tell by the theater echo and the random coughing. Lemme go fire up the test machine, saved the URL to it on there. :) |

Apparently there's also an "Avengers" movie this year called "The Avengers Earths Mightiest Heroes" but the one I saw last night is here:http://www.justin.tv/365movies_6 I didn't link it because I watched in KNOS ... the site that's hosting it is known for viruses, so update your AV first before going there. And just in case the MPAA catches up with them, the referring link was here: http://www.justin.tv/directory/entertainment?lang=en&order=hot# |

Last year was pretty good with X-men 1st class, Thor and Captain America, but yeah looking forward to this year's movies too.I still question the decision to reboot Spiderman when the 3 films were all a success. I just hope they don't take too long with the origin portion (bit by a spider, uncle ben getting killed).. |

The Lizard gets to be the villain.I never saw the TV movie "The Trial of the Incredible Hulk" . . . some strange casting in that one: John Rhys-Davies as the Kingpin and Rex Smith as Daredevil. (Also the first time that Lou Ferrigno wore purple pants while in character, apparently.) |

Yeah, but they could've made that the 4th movie instead of a reboot. But from what I read, it seems like this one will address Peter's parents, so that's a plus.Before my time, never saw it. |

Last year Syfy aired the older Captain America movies including the crappy 90s version. I'm just so glad the 2011 film was so much better and faithful to the comic book origins. |

More Spider-Man reboot weirdness: Sally Field as Aunt May and Martin Sheen as Uncle Ben. No Mary Jane Watson; she got replaced by original girlfriend Gwen Stacy. |

Hard to watch it when the network didn't air all the episodes and in the order they were supposed to. But I saw the movie on syfy and thought it was ok. |

I also hope Nolan gets at least a nomination for best director. The snub in 2009 was a slap in the face. |

I loved the cap/Ironman rivalry/teamup and Thor/hulk fighting. The helicarrier was awesome.Not going to spoil anything, but during the big battle in NYC, Hulk had some hilarious moments. The audience was cheering. Also loved the shot near the end of Stark's tower with the single letter left on it. |

I won't watch it in 3D to save money. There's also a boycott aspect to it. If enough people eschew 3D upconversion, they'll stop doing it and do more filming in 3D. |
