Growing up, I never really got into the “Marvel” comic books. Heck, never really got into comic books as a whole. So I’m certainly not a Marvel fanboy. Still, it’s impossible to deny that the Mavel people have, on the whole, done a bang-up job translating the comics into movies. There have of course been some less that stellar entries, such as the first Hulk movie and the Wolverine origin flick, but overall they’ve been quite good. They’ve of course been building up to the May release of “The Avengers,” which is probably going to break a number of box office records (it better… its production budget was $300 MILLION).

Two new trailers have been released in the last few days. In them, there are three *really* good lines… and they are all uttered by the character of Tony Stark. It does not surprise me that there’s some good banter… “The Avengers” was written and directed by Joss Whedon, after all. It would not be too overly surprising if Cap’n Mal and the other big damn heroes made a cameo appearance.
