The Avengers (may contain spoilers!)


Recommended Posts

Ok this is a stupid question but an important one... will this be in 2D also and not just ONLY 3D? I can't stand to watch a movie in 3D as I just don't get nothing out of it and the theater I go to is THX, DTS Audio, with stadium seating and concave screens for an awesome showing but I can't watch this in 3D so my only hope is they show both versions.

I havn't seen any 3D film and don't want too, seems just an annoying feature.

Looking foward to this, Tony Stark is the man!.

anyone nottice RDJ has grey hairs forming already? lol. I don't think that's real, I think that's just for the character. How many years has it been I wonder.

maybe he will turn to drink soon :p

New Avengers Scene Shot This Week

Yes, they were still filming on the night of the premiere.

Robert Downey Jr. makes a lot of off the cuff remarks when doing press, but his latest comment got everyone wondering if he was kidding or not.

At Wednesday's press conference for Marvel's The Avengers, the Iron Man star said they were going to shoot one last scene that night, which was the night of the film's premiere. Director Joss Whedon said Downey was kidding, while Marvel Studios honcho and Avengers producer Kevin Feige is said to have looked visibly irritated by Downey's remark.

So Downey was just joking, right? Not according to his co-star, Hulk actor Mark Ruffalo, who confirmed the shoot for The Playlist: "We're shooting a scene tonight. I'm not sure exactly where it's gonna go. All I know is that someone came in with the costume and said, 'Here's some wardrobe. We don't know where you're going to be or what you're doing.'"

So are we looking at a post-credits coda setting up Captain America 2, Thor 2 or Iron Man 3, the latter of which is the next Marvel film set to go before cameras? We'll find out when Avengers opens May 4.

Speaking of Iron Man 3, Downey spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about it at Wednesday's Avengers premiere. For the threequel, don't expect Stark to be as relentlessly glib as he was in Iron Man 2 and Avengers.

"There's a little bit of a return to that, I think, just for entertainment's sake, in the Avengers, which is appropriate," said Downey. "But for Iron Man 3, we are going to back to the exploration of this character, which is what made the franchise work to begin with."

The Best Captain America Scene Not in The Avengers

Joss Whedon on the heartfelt scene he cut.

Joss Whedon, writer-director of Marvel's The Avengers, told The New York Times about the best scene he wrote and then cut from the script, one that featured Steve Rogers reuniting with his flame from Captain America: The First Avenger.

"One of the best scenes that I wrote was the beautiful and poignant scene between Steve and Peggy [Carter] that takes place in the present. And I was the one who was like, Guys, we need to lose this. It was killing the rhythm of the thing. And we did have a lot of Cap, because he really was the in for me," said Whedon.

He continued, "I really do feel a sense of loss about what's happening in our culture, loss of the idea of community, loss of health care and welfare and all sorts of things. I was spending a lot of time having him say it, and then I cut that."

For those who may not recall, Chris Evans' Cap was supposed to meet Hayley Atwell's Peggy for a date, but he never made it, ending up in suspended animation for nearly 70 years instead

    • AltSendme 0.4.1 by Razvan Serea AltSendme is a minimal, cross-platform application designed for fast, secure, and private peer-to-peer file transfers. It allows users to send files or entire directories directly between devices without relying on cloud servers, accounts, or any personal information. Everything is encrypted end-to-end using modern protocols like QUIC and TLS 1.3, ensuring both strong security and low-latency performance. Transfers are verified with BLAKE3 for data integrity, and interrupted downloads automatically resume, making the experience reliable even on unstable connections. You can transfer anything—images, videos, documents, and more. Integrity checks are performed on both ends, so your files are automatically verified for correctness during both sending and receiving. AltSendme works seamlessly across local networks or long-distance links, capable of saturating multi-gigabit connections for extremely fast delivery. With built-in NAT traversal and encrypted relay fallback, it connects devices almost anywhere. The app integrates with the Sendme CLI and will soon support mobile and web platforms. Fully free and open-source, AltSendme offers a lightweight, privacy-first alternative to traditional cloud-based services, removing size limits, upload costs, and unnecessary data exposure. AltSendme 0.4.1 changelog: Release Highlights Self-hosted relays: Run your own iroh relay so transfers don't rely on public infrastructure. Includes a full deployment template in deploy/relay/ with Docker Compose for a VPS and configuration examples for production use. Fly.io support: One-click deploy template for Fly.io, including a quick-start config (fly.dev.toml) for testing without a custom domain, plus production setup with Let's Encrypt and your own hostname. Relay settings UI: New Settings → Network panel to choose how AltSendme connects: automatic public relays, custom self-hosted URLs (with optional auth token), or disabled. Test connections, verify latency, and see live relay status in the footer. Disable relays: Turn off relay servers entirely when you only need same-network transfers (e.g. LAN). Direct connections only. No relay hop required when devices can reach each other. Android graduates from beta: Android is now part of the regular release cycle alongside desktop. APKs ship with each version (universal, arm64, and armv7). Other improvements Private relay access control via shared auth token Relay fallback notifications when a custom relay is unreachable Broadcast mode toggle in sharing settings Android release build fixes (split-per-ABI APKs, universal APK preservation) UI polish: mobile safe-area insets, dropzone layout, transfer progress animation Bug fixes for minification-related serialization issues and system tray icon loading What's Changed feat(relay): add relay status functionality and settings UI (a120cdf) feat(relay): implement custom relay server configuration and verification (51276c7) feat(relay): add configuration for private relay access and enhance observability features (48fbabf) feat(relay): enhance relay URL validation, display connection status (d4fffa0) feat(relay): add RelayChangeGuard component and enhance relay-related translations (16ba514) feat(broadcast): add toggle setting for broadcast mode in sharing UI (ca6d977) fix(relay): correct QUIC discovery port, pin image, templatize fly.dev (52a2ba5) fix: More broken serialization due to minification (67491a9) fix(android): preserve true universal APK across per-ABI builds (e9f256f) fix(ui): conditional safe-area insets padding on mobile (1182f0e) refactor(transfer): CircularRing component animation fix (944572b) chore(android): drop x86 and x86_64 release APKs, keep universal+arm64+armv7 (34ada0b) Download: AltSendme 0.4.1 | ARM64 | ~9.0 MB (Open Source) Download: AltSendme for MacOS | Android Links: AltSendme Home Page | GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
    • OK so SearXNG is a meta search engine that you can install locally or use via a public instance. It scrapes other search engines which you choose and then sorts the results. Not as complicated as multiple relays
