I've enjoyed the Marvel movies much more after they created their movie division. So I'm really looking forward to seeing them develop the Avengers. Nerdom ahoy! ^_^

I've been trying to find out details (like who will be playing CA or Thor) but none have been released. It will be the same director as Iron Man so I feel assured that the costumes will be good. The Captain America and Thor movies will be releases before The Avengers so I think we'll get a feel for them before then! I'm so stoked!!!

I hope the Captain America costume doesn't come out too cheesy or too different from the comics.
It's a tough one to pull off. I wonder if the Scarlet Witch will be on the team. They need a female heroine lead! I wonder who the villain will be? Red Skull?

I feel like a fanboy : p
