I'm sure the heroes will beat the shit out of each other in one briefly curtailed misunderstanding, and then more extensively in training.
At least I hope that's how it goes down, not the Avengers meets the X-Men standard story EVERY TIME.
However, that's fucking exciting, and maybe it deserves me buying an Iron Man t-shirt instead of recycling the Captain America...
I did end up getting a black Hunger Games pin and motto shirt, so I'm psyched as all get out for that.
So, does it look like this is it for Joss? The moment where he makes it from a repeated cult success into mainstream viability? How do you think this will affect his future projects--both his choices and his funding?
I don't have much in the way of coherent thought right now, so I don't have any response other than "Please???"

Yeah, it's hard to tell from the trailer whether any of those fights are training exercises or something.
Um...
Wow.
This is the first trailer that made me confident there's, like, a movie about characters with a story in there in addition to all the cool shit blowing up. Excitement!

He's got some other movie in the works,
In Your Eyes,
that I don't know much about, but it looks like he's able to do things that he wants. I wonder if he'll come back to TV, at this point.
There's been a pretty huge buzz for
The Avengers
outside of the usual Whedon fan-base, right?
I kind of don't want to get my hopes up regarding potential increased awesomeness of Joss's career, but things look promising.

I can see the average man in the street wondering that, but did you not figure, with experience of Whedon, that this was really very likely?
Oh, of course I
figured,
but it was nice to get confirmation.

I'm thinking that for network TV he'd still be perceived as a cult director. Although that shouldn't prevent him from getting a premium cable show, right?

Shouldn't a cult director with a profitable franchise (fingers crossed) in his pocket not be so culty anymore? Genre, sure, but not cult.
