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

    • Carol, Windows XP is still being used today only in a small capacity. It is still the best OS there is due to its backwards compatibility with other older software, the customization features, and friendly UI, and people often feel that upgrading to newer OSes is cost prohibitive in specialized Industries or developing countries, so the market share as of now is around 0.2%-0.3%
    • If I could, I would commemorate it the best way possible: Replacing old machines that are still running Windows XP with something more modern, stable and better.     Noone and nothing should be running Windows XP in 2026.
    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.
