Avengers movie becoming unnecessarily complicated



From cienmablend, Since Marvel first announced plans that it would be making an Avengers film, fans have assumed that the plot would be a storyline taken straight out of the comics: Loki, Thor's half-brother and the God of Mischief, uses his powers to brainwash The Hulk and creates global chaos, leaving only The Avengers to stop him. By the time the film rolls around in 2012, Loki, who will be played by Tom Hiddleston in Kenneth Branagh's Thor, will already be an established villain in the Marvel universe and taking a page right out of the comics would make all of the fanboys happy. On paper it appears to be a win-win, but perhaps Marvel doesn't see it that way.

Oh, I don't know. The whole "Earth caught in a crossfire in a war between two alien races" story is easy enough to tell. It sounds like it only gets weird when you start factoring in the Marvel history, which should only be a problem for the fanboys.

Anyway, screw Loki. I think ditching him is an excellent decision.

Ah! I'm being attacked by vengeful snakes!
