Avengers Release?

[bradygirl_12]

So it sounds to me as if people are getting to see The Avengers before May 4th. At least that's the date it's opening around here. I guess Hollywood is doing different opening dates in different areas of the country. I might be able to see it the Tuesday after it opens or the week after that. 'Til then I'll be avoiding all Marvel fic! :)

It's opening in Europe and Australia *before* it opens in the States. There have also been some screenings. I will see it Saturday after Free Comic Book Day shopping. It's very very hard to avoid spoilers.

I wonder if that's something they've always done or is it new, opening overseas before the States? I just wish they had opened it last Friday. I don't expect it to be the greatest movie ever, but I've liked the Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America movies so I'm pretty sure I'll like this one. :)

It's very unusual for big blockbusters to open overseas first...

This isn't normal.

Not sure why they're doing it differently with this film.

Weird! And I've heard that it's 3-D. Well, my local theater does give you two choices: 3-D and not 3-D. Some people don't like paying extra for the glasses or like wearing them.

Yup. People on my flist have already seen it. Still so excited! I'm probably going to see it around the Tuesday after it opens too! Since I promised my best friend that I will watch it with her and she'll be in New York till Monday. XD

I'm envious of people who have already seen it! :)

I bet you can sit through it twice. ;)

It's opening on April 25 in Taiwan. It's usually a day or two earlier than in US, but this one is one week earlier. I went to see it yesterday.

I hope you enjoyed it! I've heard good buzz. :)

Yeah it's opening all over the world before we get to see it! =( I wonder if that always happens and I just never knew...

I'm avoiding spoilers, too, but it's getting harder to do! Also, I will be going to a midnight showing! I cannot not go! XD

[bradygirl_12]

I don't think it's their usual way of opening a movie. *puzzled*

But I'll be avoiding all Marvel comms until next week. Gah, I hate to think what I'll have to avoid when The Dark Knight Rises comes out! :)

I took next Wednesday(5/9) off just so I can go and see it during the day with less of an audience. I'm really excited to see it. Every trailer and commercial looks awesome and now I hear there's going to be a new Batman trailer showing before it. So, I'm even more excited.

[bradygirl_12]

*grins*

That's true dedication! I hope to see the new trailer, too, though if they show much more, you won't have to see the movie!

Well, I did need to use up vacation days too so the movie seemed like as good a reason as any to take time off.

[bradygirl_12]

An excellent reason! :)
