“Doth mother know, you wearith her drapes” - kills me every time 😂
I watched this again the other day. It's freakin' brilliant! Believable storyline and conflicts, great character development and kick-ass action scenes.
Me: gotta get some sleep
TH-cam: *avengers revisited*
You guys nailed it, they had some guy at the helm who understood the subtle essence of tone and mood, and that's what made the movie.
How can you guys not even mention the shawarma scene at the end. Its one of the best endings of all time...IMO
I saw a video from the cinematographer recently and he specifically said that the reason for the 1.85 : 1 aspect ratio is the team up scene and having to fit The Hulk in the frame.
I revisited these movies last year as a pick-me-up after my beagle Maximus died. They definitely helped to distract me from the grief. I started with this movie and went in order all the way through End Game. I am enjoying revisiting the revisit with Nerd Soup. Thanks, guys!
The first avenger movie (2012) is my favorite
This is still top tier MCU, IMO. Up there with the likes of Iron Man, Guardians of the Galaxy, Winter Soldier, Civil War, Infinity War and Endgame. Looking forward to the rest of the revisited series. Thanks Nerd Soup!
Lowkey great comedic writing, it never gets old
Wholesome Cap is so wonderful, lol. His progression is perf.
When Tony just rolls up inn Germany with Shoot To Thrill blasting the PA system, that is just awesome.
When you guys said that "they just set Hulk loose", I was totally recalling the line of dialogue (about Achillese) from the movie Troy . . .
"We don't need to 'control' him, we need to 'unleash' him!"
SO applicable in Avengers as well.
Recently found your channel. You obviously are super successful and popular, but just wanted to say that I love all the work you put into each and every episode. I totally appreciate the unique look and feel with the animation. Really stands out. Glad to be on board.
Shawarma stocks went up after this movie
I'm ashamed to say that it made me buy one 🤦🏿♂️
You guys have been killing it with super appealing (to me) content the last couple of weeks! I’ve watched more of your stuff the last couple weeks than I have since the end of GOT.
Ted's point about Fury is the one thing I don't like about MCU. Same with the first Iron Man when they keep joking about SHIELD and how they need to make an acronym, they're working on it. Then Captain Marvel they call themselves SHIELD
This movie was the first time I went to see a movie more than once in theaters... I saw it 4 times and every time was epic.
Not sure if you guys know this, but since you showed the specific scene many times, when Tony is chatting to Bruce and Cap in the lab he is eating some berries.
Robert Downey Jr actually has a habit of hiding snacks, especially fruit, around the set and grabs them mid scene. In this specific scene no-one knew Tony had hid those blueberries and when he pulled them out and started eating them everyone just stayed in character and went with it, so his casual mannerisms where he is offering them to Bruce and Cap is improvised and those guys stayed in character perfectly. I think its stuff like that which he brings to his performance that makes his character pop and seem so real and memorable.
I knew this movie was going to be revolutionary the moment it was announced. No doubts what so ever
Avengers is my second Favourite superhero movie after TDK.
The avengers is my go to movie when feeling down as it always lifts me up. Thank u Kevin, Joss and of course Nerd soup for giving it a great review.
The avengers won every battle with hawkeye.
The one battle they lost was without hawkeye. After that they got him back and they won again.
The Hulk, “I am always angry” line hit so hard to me and made me empathize so deeply with Bruce and feel so badly for him.
I love this movie so much. I don't think it has aged poorly at all. I mean it is a bit dated but the chitauri the hulk cg the snake monster things still are very good cg wise. I mean is the dialogue a little camp especially with thor and Loki yeah but you know it gets better and this movie is such a blast from start to finish.
I first saw The Avengers on an IMAX screen, so the aspect ratio issue didn't matter...
I don’t know why you wouldn’t watch that in IMAX
@@viksaggu9085 IMAX gives me migraines. I always stick to the regular screenings.
Your comments on Loki are why I'm excited for the show. Gonna be a classic
"Little buddy told me everything. Like how you like the chicken strips on the underside of the bread? Now what were you thinking?" - Loki
Can’t wait for you guys to do the entire MCU
Remember when fury in age of ultron said " here we are BACK on earth with nothing but our wit and will to save the world.....knowing what we know now about his interaction in the 90s with Carol danvers....we understand he had been out in space but we didn't know at the time.
Ranking Superhero movies, people often forget what a "WTF" game changer this flick was. It was the springboard blueprint for how to load a film with multiple heroes and actually have them work TOGETHER instead of each hero getting their punch/kick moment, then moving to the next scene and someone else uses a power. These guys were truly teaming up and playing off each other. And it was also excellent as a standalone movie. I always rank it somewhere in the top 3 of the best MCU movies ever along with Infinity War and Winter Soldier.
I still think this is the best Avengers movie, whenever I hear people saying how they think Infinity War and Endgame are the best I can’t help but think they’re kinda blinded by the whole “Bigger is better” mentality, and don’t get me wrong guys, I love Infinity War and Endgame too, and those movies definitely have more crazy fan service stuff, but just from a pure character and storytelling standpoint I feel like the first Avengers movie does it’s job the best
Hahaha Black Widow is doing absolutely NOTHING with those two pistols she's shooting lol and Hawkeye calling out from the top of one building for a city-wide battle 🤣🏹 🕷
That’s some good leftover soup.
I don’t know what you mean by 1out of 4. I thought all of them rocked until Thor 2.
This series is GOATED
Still wondering what happened with Black Widow and Hawkeye in Budapest
Joss Whedon's excuse at the time for the 1.85:1 aspect ratio was "it's the only way I could put Hulk and Iron Man in the same frame at the same time". Which, according to someone I've talked to who's more schooled in this stuff, just proves how little Whedon understands cinematography.
@William Clay Admittedly the overall response is done so kind of flippantly, but Whedon absolutely did say that in the past, and very much in a "I HAD to" sort of tone. I love the Avengers, it's a well told story with dynamic and fun characters but it is at best a medicorely-directed film. Too much of it plays as too flat and not very well composed. He obviously then had no trouble with the frame fitting in Age Of Ultron.
I hope you guys see this comment. I love that you guys used "Curls" instrumental for the opening
I definitely agree that the first avengers 3rd act is still arguably the best.
Do you guys know loki was probably under influence of the stone when he invaded earth. Or what di you guys think about it?
I remember everyone applauding at the end of Avengers
I screamed like a howler monkey when Bruce hulks out and absolutely wrecks that leviathan.
This was the 1st MCU film I saw in theaters and I DEFINITELY said "OH SHIT -- they're doing the Infinity Saga???!!!!" out loud when I saw Thanos. That precise moment is when the MCU became the future highest grossing film series of all time...
Early! Love this channel
How can you compare Marvel "cheesy" with DC's Batman/Superman cheesy? It was the era..it was the social norm. These kinds of superhero movies could never be made circa 2024.In the past decade and before...was the movie "sweet spot". We were craving something wholesome and cheesy. Marvel..just happened to fall into a vat of likable presentations. The McGuire Spiderman movies were above the Reeves Superman movie..in style and action...but they both made an impact on the American....even international audiences. Avenger One is the Best.
I fucking LOVE this channel! Just wanted to let you know.
I know y'all don't like the aspect ratio, but this movie literally fits perfect on a pc or laptop. Looks so good
Can confirm. Comic book reader. Freaked out when I saw Thanos.
Holds up for me. Some CG isn't as good but that's to be expected. Still love it as much as I did the first time.
You guys are busy. Not complaining.
Weed reference in marvel avengers blew my mind when I heard it lol.
as someone who isn’t from ny i can safely say
it’s alright
If you had to pick one moment in the MCU that was the catalyst for the infinity war, what do you think it was?
Well, now I want to see Avengers, again. Now that I think of it, it seems I've never watched it in English.
what language have you seen it in?
@@christopherpace7291 Spanish, Russian and Ukrainian 🤔 maybe in Catalan too when it was on TV
That's some good soup god damn
Just thinking about it, if Whedon and Feige failed with this film we might never have gotten to Infinity War and Endgame.
I made it before it got claimed this time. 🤘
Eh, the ego pissing contest was really dumb. For smart and clever people, they sure are stupid in this movie.
Soo 10/10? Or..... lol I was looking fwd to ur guys ranking
That 16:9 Aspect Ratio kills me too! A huge let down in that regard when compared to the rest of the MCU cinematography.
We need a Nerd soup video just on all those Bernie memes 😆
Very good movie, that
Early morning soup
My go to MCU movie by far.
Lol Teddy needs a dictionary or a thesaurus or something to help him get his words right. Love him tho
This is some hawkeye soup
Hulk in end game was trash
Defo doesn't hold up. Still decent movie, even though it's shot like it's a TV show
Whoop whoop
damn I already had soup for lunch, we feasting today
WOOP
Tony making an ED joke when Loki's scepter didn't work.
I loved the early mcu the best each film had a unique tone, now its all kinda the same generic mcu comedy film
💂♂️
Thor is a masterpiece that is all...
Gotta be slightly disappointed that Cap believes in god….kinda have to chalk it up to him being from a more naive time.
I guess I’ve drank a lot of haterade with the MCU, but I can’t help but hope that the serialized style of these superhero movies, shows, etc. that do stick true to comic books in tone and serialization are replaced by more graphic novels style movies/shows, a la Joker, Watchmen, even Logan. I just always think the themes of the MCU are never as interesting as Nolan’s Batman’s and the other series I mentioned...
The proud treatment timely unpack because nic immunohistologically raise save a mixed message. flagrant, chivalrous energy
For me personally the movie aged poorly. I loved it on first watch, but honestly I have trouble rewatching it. I think it is great for what it was, like endgame. However, I like Ultron more as I look back on the series
I always have liked Age of Ultron more. It does alot of what the first did but their is more down time and slice of life with the avengers one of the only times we got to see them interact as friends.
I think you guys are crazy, for example one of the things they pointed out is how great of a villain Loki is and he is just intimidating by his presence plus you understand his actions and motives. Ultron is what, mad and psychotic cause he is.....
I had high hopes for Ultron, based on the ruined bot staggering out to their party in their promo's I expected the story to be something along the lines of Tony makes him and during a fight they view him as disposable cannon fodder, then when they return with his damaged body Tony decides to go party instead of fixing him. This could have easily set up Ultrons resent for Tony which was completely unfounded in the movie, he was just born sarcastic and evil and wanting to hate Tony.....
Because of the paper thin character that is Ultron I couldn't get behind the rest of what was happening, I think Spader did a good job with what he had but meh.
Civil War I think I like even less as I found Nemo or however it was from Hydra pulling those strings to be the antithesis of intimidating and calculating as Loki was and didn't believe he could manipulate everyone so much, especially with his plot convenience impersonation of the psychologist, which his plan hinges on. The man seemed desperate and barely able to get to his next step (like drowning that guy to get the code book part, he didn't seem in control and like his plans were going well).
So yeah, for me these movies are often as strong as their villain and Ultron in the movie was a lame villain. Same works out for Iron Man 2, Thor 2 etc etc.
@@jonsmith5058 I would disagree, but see your point. Honestly I love Ultron as a villain. Ultron has great voice work, he looks intimidating, and he does have a compelling motive. Ultron want to end humanity not because he is sadistic, but because he sees humanity, as the biggest threat to the world (arguably a fair opinion) so he was in essence programmed to destroy humanity. The reason he hates Tony comes from the realization of who Tony is and what he is done to the earth. For example if someone you loved did the worst possible thing to you like kill a man you may hold resentment same could be said for Ultron and his creator Tony. On the other end I find Loki less compelling, while he is brilliantly acted, Loki never seems like a threat, because he is exactly like the villain of civil war someone who is pulling the strings, whereas Ultron was the actual threat, in Avengers the alien army was threatening, but Loki was not. Loki got tossed around by almost every avenger, Thor in Thor, Hulk, Hawkeye, heck he was played by Black widow, and could not do anything too Iron man
@@ristosnipeanalyst7839 But how do you rationalize that Ultron was born so evil? Literally as he wakes up he is messing with Jarvis, he's rude, sarcastic and sadistic from the get go, it seems his personality is already fully formed as an asshole by the time he Googles Tony on the internet and decides he's a dick and wants to end humanity, besides he's not even really been given the directive of protecting the Earth at that point, at least not given a chance to think about it much, its like 'ok I Googled Tony, lets kill every human and likely most of life on Earth'.
I think he had amazing potential and Spader was an excellent voice actor, the model was ok, I think I would have preferred expressive eyes but not the weird robot lips.
But yeah, I think they just missed a beat setting him up and having him immediately drop evil.
Stories of evil AI's are fascinating, I think the very best ones are the ones where they act somewhat in self defense after we demonstrate contempt for them or not treating them like a real life form. For example in the Animatrix or the Geth from Mass Effect.
A Skynet is far less interesting if they are going to be a character, to me Skynet works in the old films because its not seen nor given a personality (I know it likely is in later films but those are trash).
@@jonsmith5058 I see where you are coming from, but I think you should rewatch Ultron. I too love the robot becoming sentient trope
This movie has aged like milk
