    Hi everyone! The Avengers was amazing! I can't believe I am finished with Phase 1 of the MCU. This was such a fun ride and I can't wait to see what adventures are to come in Phase 2! Also, thanks for being patient with this upload. I tried to get it posted earlier today but ran into some issues and you have all been so sweet about it! You are the most amazing community and I am so grateful to get to bond with you over incredible films. ❤

      Another great reaction. You’re quite perceptive. Some of your thought processes are pretty much like premonitions, but we can’t say which ones. Needless to say that if you’ve enjoyed the ride so far you’ve definitely got some enjoyable movies in the rest of this saga.

      _"Is she a super soldier or just really good at fighting?"_
      Regular human, but in the comics Natasha is one of the greatest martial artists & fighters on the planet.
      Throughout most of the character's run in the 1970s through to the early 2000s she's been portrayed as having a skill level exceeding a number of excellent hand 2 hand fighters like the Punisher, Daredevil & Hawkeye.
      There are only a small handful of characters in the entire Marvel universe that are on par with her in terms of skill (Wolverine, Captain America, Iron Fist, etc.)
      However her lack of any superhuman abilities puts an upper limit on her effectiveness.
      We should also note films don't adhere strictly to the comics.
      _"Did the hammer not want to hurt Cap?"_
      Cap's shield is made of Vibranium. A rare metal which has certain energy conversion properties.

      Avengers movies get progressively longer as the series continues. Many reactors will break them up into two or even 3 parts for YT release, which seems to help with videos being taken down or blocked.
      Some reactors will release the 2nd part within an hour, others will wait as long as a month. If you do decide to split them up that way, please try to mention in the description when the 2nd part will be released; it really helps to know when to expect it.

The big boss ( I won't tell you his name because that would ruin a little of the fun) didn't care about earth. He just helped loki for the tesseract and in exchange loki gets earth.

    A detail I always liked (during the helicarrier battle) is that even though they were at each other's throats a few minutes before, Tony doesn't show any exasperation with Steve for not hitting the rotor release lever right away. It's as though he knew that the only reason Steve wouldn't hit the lever is because he's in trouble. That's serious trust for a guy you just met and don't get along with.

    Good reaction. In regards to the Hulk, he is angry, he is especially angry at Natasha for bringing him into this situation and he understands that she manipulated him, plus there is a part of him that is also attracted to her and he's resentful of this. But he is extra angry and out of control because Loki's staff was also manipulating him, hence why he focuses his rage on Natasha in this scene.

      One of the positives about Avengers, is that they set up the characters in their own movies previously, setting up their backstories, setting up the villains backstory, etc. Some directors try to cram in multiple villains/heroes into a single movie without any setup/backstory for any of them, and more often than not, those movies fail. Having larger than life heroes/villains needs their own backstory movies, otherwise you try to cram it into a 2 hour movie... it just doesn't work. (One of the reasons why I feel like the original spiderman 3, with Venom, missed the mark because they really didn't build up Venom prior...)

    25:04 - Cap's shield is made from Vibranium which absorbs vibrations and kinetic energy. But Mjolnir is so powerful the shield reverberated the hammer's energy across the entire forest. This is also why when Peggy shot the shield in Captain America (2011), the bullets simply fell straight down and did not ricochet.

  • @rainbowpegacornstudios

    It doesn't matter HOW many times I've seen the movie, seeing Loki get ragdolled by The Hulk is always a laugh riot.
    A guide when it comes to Bruce Banner's transformations into The Hulk: When it happens out of stress or anger, The Hulk is a completely out of control living wrecking ball. But when it happens willfully, he's a lot easier to manage.
    Thor's hammer Mjolnir can indeed only be wielded by someone IT deems worthy, hence why Hulk couldn't pick it up, no matter how strong he is.
    I also really love that defibrillator moment when Hulk roars to wake a seemingly dead Tony Stark after he flew the nuke into the portal.

    Deleted scenes include an older man sheltering his grandchildren from the aliens, when he runs into Steve. The man is a ww2 vet, and Steve recognizes him.
    Also, the waitress we see at the end originally had more screen time. Recall Steve is also an artist. He would sit in that restaurants outdoor section and sketch. The waitress laid out some very obvious signals that go right past him, which prompts the guy at the next table (Stan Lee) to say "Ask for her phone number, you moron!"
    Later, during the time Cap rescues a group of hostages , a Chuitari fighter tore Steve's cap off, revealing his face. The waitress recognized him. This adds depth to her cameo at the end.

    That "Puny god" moment. I seen this in theaters, and people just exploded in laughter. Goes to show how powerful they made up Hulk to be. in this movie, he could take on several avengers at the same time, and clearly break every bone in poor Loki's body, but, he had an anger management issue. Never the less, it's so satisfactory. When you beat the opposing general in 10 seconds, but the army keeps attacking.

    Hey Jax ... loved the reaction !!! Yeah that (ship's) invisibility cloak is actually not that. If you play that part back, you'll hear Agent Hill (Cobie Smulders, the very pretty woman in charge of the flying aircraft carrier) saying, "Engage retro-reflection panels" meaning, the ship is coated in panels that display what's behind the ship on the side you are viewing, so it merely "APPEARS" invisible ... as if you are not really there.

    MArvel Fun:
    Back in the day, a Life-Model Decoy was a rudimentary android which looked and sounded like its human counterpart. It could be publicly seen interacting with people while the actual person was out Hero-ing.
    Life-model Decoys were a thing in comics, invented by SHIELD, particularly for use by high-profile people who also had a secret identity. The world has changed so much that the trope of a secret identity, a bedrock of a lot of story plots, is no longer believable. In Nick Fury's case, where his identity was not secret, it meant Fury could seem to be in many places at once, and its primary function, DECOY, behaved like a hunter's decoy, except that it was there to thwart the assassins/hunters who might be tempted.
    IF you enjoy collecting the Metals of Marvel, like Uru (Thor's hammer), Vibranium (Cap's shield, Bucky's arm), Adamantium (Wolverine's claws)---- LMDs (as Life Model Decoys were called) were wrapped in a metal called Epidurium ---- very skin-like.

If I remember right, Banner was kind of a shy, emotionally withdrawn/complex person in the comics, which is a big reason why the main trigger for the Hulk is when he gets angry.

    Also, in the comics Thor compliments Tony by calling him a god. It's high praise and the ultimate respect for his intelligence as power and heroism as godlihood( Thor's ideal version of what that means). In terms of power, it's highly story dependent, but you can't dismiss his ability. Iron Man is more powerful than most give him credit for.

    Remember that line you laughed at, "glorious purpose" ... just make a note somewhere :)
    The hammer didn't hurt the shield because of the material it's made of, vibranium. A fictional Marvel metal, it's not unbreakable but it can withstand heavy vibrations and force. It was mentioned a little bit in CA:TFA but I've always felt they could go into more detail. You'll learn more about vibranium later on but I won't spoil where.
    I love that (justifiably) suspicious side-eye you gave when Tony dropped the computer bug. I think a lot people miss that moment.
    Bullets can hurt Steve. He's not invulnerable, he's just a peak athlete thanks to the serum. Maybe a bit stronger than most but no real super strength.
    I'm not quite sure why most of the subtitles said "captain" when most of them are saying "Cap," which is pretty much how they address him the rest of the series (also in the comics).
    One of your hopes/guesses for one of the Avengers actually will happen in their next movie and I can't wait for you to see you were right! But I won't say who!!

      "and does anything and everything for himself": in the time between Iron Man 1 and Iron Man 2 (six months), Tony kept on wearing the Iron Man suit to save and help people (stopping a forest fire, rescuing a submarine, working on bettering Eastern-Western relationships and so on) all the while knowing it was accelerating his dying and might have become painful at one point. Just saying. He also was ready to risk his life to defeat Stane in the first movie. And in this movie, he proved twice that he was more than ready to sacrifice his life to save others. First with the rotor (I mean the thing allowing the hellicarier to fly that Tony had to physically push at risk of getting crush), then with the missile.

      @@babadoudidadouda Keep in mind, Tony is motivated very strongly by guilt. He saw first-hand the evil his weapons manufacturing did and how he's contributed to distributing harm and death with his companies. He never wore the suit cuz it was "the right thing to do"; he mostly put it on to right the wrongs he himself had done. In Iron Man 2, the fame and attention gets to him, so he wears the suit mostly to show off. What heroic actions does he do in Iron Man 2? Fight Hammer, yeah, but that's cuz Hammer stole his technology, which ties into his guilt again (people using HIS products for evil purposes). So that's what "everything he does is for himself" means; he doesn't do it to help others, but rather to tell himself that he isn't a terrible person (while making very poor choices doing so, just look at Avengers 2-)

    Hi Jax!🙂I believe part of Loki's plan was to get caught, and have his staff in the vicinity of Bruce Banner in order to modify the Hulk's emotions. I believe that explains his change of behavior on the ship. Your insight into some possible future predictions is pretty impressive.😉Ashley Johnson (TV interview) had a much bigger role in the film, but most of her parts were cut. That security guard that finds Bruce is Harry Dean Stanton. He's been in a lot of films. Two of the bigger ones are "Alien" and "The Green Mile".

The same goes with Hawkeye.
    The TV Show Agents of Shield is my suggestion if you wanna know more about Phil Coulson and his Story at Shield.

    In the comics, I remember that Black Widow DID have enhanced physical abilities. She was certainly stronger than an average human, but just as if not more important, she had enhanced healing and, I THINK, she even aged at a slower rate.
    The MCU version of the character is not superpowered but is EXTREMELY intelligent and expertly skilled/competent in technology, spy craft, and martial arts.

    I love Loki as a character. He's not truly evil. His actions are based around a feeling of inadequacy and feeling that he wasn't as loved by his father as Thor was. He always felt like he was on the outside looking in with his own family all his life. He played tricks to get attention, and he attacked Earth because he was hurting. Obviously his actions are unforgivable, but there's so much depth to his character and he feels things that a lot of people can relate to

      Loki is evil. He kills wantonly. The fact that so many people can watch him murder innocents and still sau "he's not truly evil" kinda tells me all I need to know about why people fall for sociopaths. If Loki wasn't cute, so many people wouldnt be excusing all his bad behavior.

    • @actioninmyphannypack
      @actioninmyphannypack ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Prince_the_One That’s based on very black and white view of good and evil. If we go by actions alone, the bad outweighs the good and Loki is evil. However, how do you define evil? If we go by Webster’s definition, we find that evil is: “morally reprehensible” or “arising from actual or imputed bad character or conduct.” Is evil simply the absence of good? If so, then no, Loki isn’t evil. There is good in him. There’s more bad than good, but it’s still there and in the end he chose to do the right thing rather than defaulting into his old ways. Furthermore, is he evil in part of the story and not in the rest? Possibly, yes. What makes Loki so hard to pin down is the fact that up until Infinity War it’s an ongoing story, so if you pluck him out at certain points, it’s still open for debate what constitutes as evil. He certainly is evil for large chunks of his overall storyline, but when he develops, the picture gets away blurry and hard to describe. In that case, what is the measure of evil? Is it the whole journey or the ending? Can the lives he’s taken be weighed against the lives he’s saved? What tips the balance on the scales of the soul?

    Fantastic reaction. I'm pretty new to your channel and am psyched I have so many reactions to go through! This remains my favorite MCU entry (alone with Deadpool and Werewolf by Night). Being able to combine all of these heroes and introduce their interactions so seamlessly and humorously is genius.
    As regards Mark Ruffalo as The Hulk, gawd he looks exactly like someone that Jack Kirby would draw with that squarish head and slightly blocky body! Brilliant physical casting that luckily is combined with equally brilliant acting.
    As has been commented on, that "There are always men like you." scene is too often overlooked in reactions. That situation must have been incredibly telling to Steve Rogers, who fought the Axis in WW2.
    And yes, shawarma (many spellings there) is absolutely delicious! Thankfully there is a restaurant very near me that makes a great one!

  • @oxhine

    Hey, Jacqueline! "Avengers" was a game-changer and the proof of concept of Feige's grand plan! Team movies weren't anything new as we had already seen the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, Mystery Men, Watchmen and the Incredibles in action by this point but a multi-franchise crossover event hadn't been done since the Universal horror cycle of the '40's and, certainly, not on a scale this immense! This movie is the very definition of a thrilling Hollywood blockbuster and it shattered every record! Who knew we were only being teed up for something even bigger?
    In answer to your in-universe timeline question, "First Avenger" is from 1942-1945, "Agent Carter: Season 1" is in 1946, "Agent Carter One-Shot" is in 1947, Ang Lee's "Hulk" is from 2005-2006, "Iron Man" is in 2009, Fury's Big Week including "Iron Man 2", "Incredible Hulk" and "Thor" is in 2010, Cap is thawed in 2011 and "Avengers" is in 2012 with "Iron Man 3" occurring at year's end 2012.
    Marvel Comics assembled "Earth's Mightiest Heroes" in September 1963, the same month the X-Men debuted and two years after the Fantastic Four. Whereas the other groups were privately financed and comprised of members who were linked by blood or genes, the Avengers were a more motley crew subject to government oversight. Their headquarters was a mansion gifted to the team by Tony Stark located on 890 Fifth Avenue in New York City nestled on the eastern edge of Central Park complete with a butler named Jarvis to attend their needs. As in the movie, the team would travel around the globe in sleek compact planes called Quinjets. The five founding members were Iron Man, Thor, Ant-Man, Wasp and Hulk. The team found Captain America in the ice and thawed him out in the fourth issue. He was granted honorary founding status and has been with the group through almost every incarnation often leading as Chairman. As in the film, it was Loki's mischief that brought the heroes together whereupon they decided they should gather regularly to tackle any situation that was too much for any one them alone. Borrowing again from Marvel's alternate universe, the 1610 Ultimate Universe, the Chitauri are introduced as Loki's invasion force in the film since the Ultimate-equivalent of the Avengers united for the first time to battle that species. Credit goes to the Wasp's Janet van Dyne for coming up with their name, the Avengers. Over the years, the roster would rotate frequently as a diverse group of beings filled the ranks of the organization including humans, superhumans, mutants, inhumans, atlanteans, eternals, sorcerers, androids, aliens, demi-gods and deities. The team's battle cry was simple: "Avengers Assemble!"
    Joss Whedon was an ideal choice for director. Having cut his teeth on "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer" and "Firefly", he understood how to ground fantasy and sci-fi with clashing team dynamics. As a comic book enthusiast and writer, he was well-versed with the Marvel sandbox and this movie hums under his sure hand.
    As this is a team movie, the cast is a bunch of familiar faces with a couple of new additions and everybody gets their moment to shine. Robert Downey, Jr. as Tony Stark aka Iron Man, Gwyneth Paltrow as Virginia 'Pepper' Potts, Paul Bettany as JARVIS and Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff aka Black Widow carry over from the "Iron Man" films. Chris Hemsworth as Thor Odinson aka Thor, Tom Hiddleston as Loki Laufeyson aka Loki, Stellan Skarsgard as Dr. Erik Selvig and Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton aka Hawkeye carry over from "Thor". Chris Evans as Steve Rogers aka Captain America carries over from "The First Avenger". Samuel L. Jackson as Col. Nick Fury, Clark Gregg as Agent Phil Coulson and Maximiliano Hernandez as Agent Jasper Sitwell return as the faces of SHIELD with new addition Cobie Smulders as Agent Maria Hill, right-hand woman to Fury. Mark Ruffalo replaces Edward Norton as Bruce Banner aka Hulk but Lou Ferrigno remains on hand as the voice of Hulk. Powers Boothe and Jenny Agutter play World Security Council members who carry over into "Agents of SHIELD" as Gideon Malick and "Winter Soldier" as Hawley, respectively. Whedon alum Alexis Denisof plays the Chitauri spokesman known as The Other in heavy prosthetics who appears again in "Guardians of the Galaxy". Surprisingly, distinguished Polish writer-director-actor Jerzy Skolimowski pops up as corrupt Russian General Luchkov who gets outplayed by Natasha. Esteemed character actor Harry Dean Stanton has a wry bit as a custodian who witnesses the Hulk's transformation, New York character actor Robert Clohessy has a funny bit as an NYPD Sergeant who questions Cap's credentials, veteran character actor Kenneth Tigar has a moving bit as a defiant old German man, prolific character actor Jamie McShane has a quick televised bit as a celebratory bystander, all-American character actor Warren Kole plays a SHIELD tech on the helicarrier bridge and Ashley Johnson, the voice of Ellie in "The Last of Us", shows up as Beth, a grateful waitress. Enver Gjokaj, who would later be cast as Daniel Sousa in "Agent Carter" and "Agents of SHIELD", briefly appears in an unrelated role as a New York cop!
    TRIVIA:
    1. Harry Dean Stanton was famously killed by the xenomorph in "Alien" so, when he asks a naked Bruce Banner if he's an alien, it's a tongue-in-cheek nod to his former role.
    2. RDJ ad-libbed a lot of dialogue including the faux-Shakespeare routine with Thor, the "Galaga" quip on the bridge, the shawarma comment when he's revived and the character nicknames like Legolas for Hawkeye.
    3. Mark Ruffalo ad-libbed the roar that awakens Tony from unconsciousness after he falls back to Earth.
    4. Chitauri is Zulu for 'serpent race from the sky'.
    5. Jeremy Renner was trained by Olympic archers in the use of his bow.
    6. Shawarma sales skyrocketed after this movie!
    EASTER EGGS:
    1. Loki's body temperature registers as blue on the infrared monitor trained on his cell because of his Frost-Giant physiology.
    2. Odin's pet ravens Huginn (Thought) and Muninn (Memory) fly past Thor and Loki on the outcrop after Loki is taken from the Quinjet.
    3. One of the trading cards in Coulson's collectible set features the cover of "Captain America" # 1 which illustrates Cap socking Hitler on the jaw.
    4. The mind-controlling Chitauri scepter makes its first appearance in the saga and is the second alien artifact of power to affect our heroes after the space-spanning Tesseract.
    CAMEO:
    1. Stan Lee appears in a cameo as a chess-playing senior citizen who expresses disbelief about superheroes being active in New York.
    END-CREDIT SCENES:
    1. The Other reports the Chitauri defeat to Thanos who smiles at the prospect of 'courting death'. This is Thanos' first appearance in the saga. His smile is a reference to his comic counterpart who actually is in love with the personification of Death.
    2. The exhausted team gorges themselves on shawarma post-battle having taken Tony up on his suggestion.
    The next chronological stop in the MCU is the ONE-SHOT featurette called "ITEM 47" about Chitauri tech falling into the wrong hands. It is found on the "Avengers" blu-ray or on DPlus.
    Don't forget to watch it or the AGENT CARTER ONE-SHOT which can be paired with "Captain America: The First Avenger" or be viewed as a coda to the "AGENT CARTER" series.
    If you want to see "AGENT CARTER", the first 8-episode season is EXCEPTIONAL, occurs before the One-Shot and can be seen after "Avengers" as an interlude between phases.
    The "Man Out of Time" DELETED SCENE which includes Stan Lee should not have been cut from the film and is definitely worth a look!

He also created Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly, and The Nevers. All of which I think you'd like. Firefly and The Nevers are short series. Firefly is 14 episodes and a movie and The Nevers is 12 episodes. Both have great characters, stories, and lots of humor. Same with Buffy, but it's 7 seasons so it's a much bigger committment. Plus it has a spin-off, Angel, which ran for 5 seasons. But if you love the shorter series, you might want to give them a shot.
