Avengers Buzz Could Feed Record Box Office
Weekend box-office sluggishness got you down? Oh. Well, either way, fortune tellers around Hollywood are saying the recent Avengers buzz has further heated up an already scorching prospect: Some tracking reports have Joss Whedon's Marvel-hero mash-up sailing beyond The Dark Knight's $158 million three-day mark from 2008, though Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2's all-time record of $169 million seems safe, 3-D and all. Stay tuned to Movieline for more box-office previews and projections — especially your own — as The Avenegers' May 4 release date draws near. [THR]

When I read "THE AVENGERS" my mind flashes to John Steed and Emma Peel....Diana
Rigg, the snazzy classy opening. Great dialog, the works.
So the powers-that-be insist on delving into comic books. Swell. Wake me when CLASSICS ILLUSTRATED hits the big screen.

I watched this earlier today. It's a good movie but all the talking in the earlier parts of the film would make you sleepy.
