Hopefully the new Avengers movies will be more into depth with the other heroes. The Avengers may as well be renamed "Iron Man and his bitches"

We all knew he do it, end of the day the films sell and he wants to get paid for it. He does Iron Man really well, suited actor for the role. Just wish Iron Man 3 was as better as i thought it be. Looking forward to Avengers 2 and the rest this year and next year!

Well in most story arch's iron man is essential in forming the avengers. Not that i don't want to see more in depth stories for the different heroes. I personally would love to see Mark Ruffalo play in a hulk movie. He portrays the character so well.

I would want Howard back, but yeah.. it's too bad.

Hulk movies are hard to do as the last few have shown.  Enough of the origin stories though, just have a big slug fest with another villain like Abomination or Red Hulk.  Can't see much of a story though.

I like him better than Howard.  :)
