Whedon Talks Avengers 2 and im not sure if i like it.

Sure, we’re still two months away from “The Avengers” hitting theaters, but that doesn’t mean it’s too early to start talking about the movie’s sequel. Or at least it’s not to early for director Joss Whedon to start talking about the sequel, at least in our opinion.

British magazine SFX has a great article in which they catch up with Whedon and star Tom Hiddleston. The entirety of the story isn’t online, but DigitalSpy and ComicBookMovie.com both have some snippets of the Whedon and Hiddleston interviews that are interesting reads.

When SFX asked Whedon how he plans on topping the upcoming ensemble Marvel superhero film in “The Avengers 2,” he answered, “By not trying to. By being smaller. More personal, more painful. By being the next thing that should happen to these characters, and not just a rehash of what seemed to work the first time. By having a theme that is completely fresh and organic to itself.”

That’s certainly helps strengthen our excitement for Whedon’s vision for “The Avengers.” Most directors go the other direction in sequels and think bigger is better. But Whedon said he set the stage in this movie, out May 4, so that “The Avengers 2″ could be a more intimate affair.

“I want to know what makes them tick, what makes them flawed, what makes them fight – and ultimately, what makes them awesome,” he said, adding that he made sure each Avenger had enough screen time in the movie to show “what makes them awesome. “I go to these movies for those moments when the heroes define themselves, either through action or deliciously overwritten speeches.”

Hiddleston also had some noteworthy comments on how his villainous character Loki would respond to the array of Avengers he’ll face. It’s something we never really thought about in anticipation of the film, but is a component of the movie should make for some interesting onscreen drama.

“With each Avenger, [Loki] faces a different threat, a different strategy and methodology,” Hiddleston explained. “Some pose more of a threat than others in his mind, but they all have their own unique superpowers. I say it’s like tennis. You’ll never play the same game of tennis with a new and different opponent. The magic happens in the space between you, not just with the characters but the actors too.”

It’s also worth noting that “Cabin in the Woods” director Drew Goddard, who helped write that film’s script with Whedon, has already seen an early cut of the movie. Collider asked him what he thought of the film, to which Goddard answered, “as a life-long ‘Avengers’ fan and as a Joss fan, I couldn’t be happier.” That was just the vote of confidence we needed.

Are you looking forward to “The Avengers”? Tell us in the comments section below or on Facebook and Twitter.

Went to see it last night. Pretty damn good..the action scenes were :ahh:.

I'm not a big comic book guy but I remember having a Thanos action figure when I Was younger..I think he was on the Fantastic Four cartoon or Iron man one? The crowd was like :scusthov: when he popped up at the end.

Are there any other bigger heroes that are part of the Avengers series they could possibly add in a sequel?

Saw it earlier and it was the best experience I've ever had in a movie. The way the crowd in the theater reacted to the scenes added to the enjoyment. I can't say or see anything that could've been done better. Right now this is the best movie of the year IMO. When Thanos showed up at the end I was :ohmy:. Anyone else get reminded of this when Black Widow was shooting at the aliens http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLPI_p5RnR0

Exactly
