I dont know if you even read the comics or not. Im guessing not. The simple idea that one of the Avengers should die to put the movie over the top is just incomprehensible to me. I dont know how that could EVER be considered a good idea.
The way I see it, if the film had gone down like you wanted, if Stark died in the end, the outrage over that would be immeasurable. You think it would be a good idea for the first film about this legendary group from the comics to have one of its major characters to die on their first actual teamup?
Heh. Joss Whedon would be crucified for that horseshit.
Everything in the movie leading up to that would instantly be undone. I liken it to the ending of Mass Effect. Completely killer series, right up to that last ten minutes which completely destroys everything.
Ill never understand the need for writers to feel like they need to kill off a character to have a great story. I dont go to the theater to see my heroes die. I go to see them kick some ass like they do in the comics.
Okay, please respond to what you think about Spoiler #1, and yes I read the ****ing comics.
