The funniest thing so far was the cameo of Stan as Hef in Iron man!!

They are adding the little "tips of the hat" to all the characters because they are going to actually tie them together in The Avengers, just like appearance of Tony Stark in Hulk. I've read that they have already planned to feature Hulk in the next Iron Man as well.
Any word on why Terrence Stamp has been replaced by Don Cheadle?

They said Terrence wanted too much money and they had originally wanted Cheadle to play the character anyway, but he wasn't available at the time.

I just HATE it when they change actors like that.

Like when they changed all the characters from HULK --> INCREDIBLE HULK: Bruce Banner, Betty Ross, General Ross, etc. I hope they don't change the characters again in the next HULK.

I mean, sure, Ang Lee's HULK was not that great, but I thought the actors were great. And how the hell can they replace Jennifer Connelly?

Can you imagine them changing the actors for Bruce Wayne, Alfred, and Gordon? I didn't even like it when they changed from Katie Holmes to Maggie Gyllenhaal!

Can you imagine if they had changed all the characters from X-Men or The Godfather or Star Wars IV, V, & VI? Maybe it's not exactly the same thing, but I still hate it when they make actor changes.

Got my bluray and watched it last night, and holy crap! The sound was ridiculous! The dynamics were off the chart, great bass, overall it was almost overwhelming. It was the first time I've ever turned the volume down from 0.

BTW, I'm using an Onkyo 805 receiver, outboard D-Sonic Magnum 1000S amps for all channels (3000 watts total), big (and incredibly dynamic) speakers all around, 4 AV15 subs run by a Crown K2 2500watt amp. 65 inch Mitsu Diamond 1080p DLP.

Iron-Man was impressive, but Hulk was an unreal experience! My cat normally sleeps on my lap for movies no matter how loud ... but last night he hid under the bed upsairs :D

I just got done watching the BD for the first time and OMG! The sheer impact and dynamics of the DTS-HD/MA track is just insane. The soundtrack on this movie totally obliterates Iron Man and Transformers by a mile.

Uhm, yea ... I had the exact same reaction. I imagine it'll be responsible for a fair amount of blown speakers over the next few months!

Looks like The Avengers will be the most expensive movie ever made because of the amount of actors in it and special effects that will have to be done. From the rumors this is what the roster is looking like:

Iron Man
Thor
Captain America
Hulk
Wolverine
Spider-Man (they need to sort out the licensing with Sony because they still own the rights)

HULK's DTS-MA blows away IRON MAN's TrueHD by 1 mile and TRANSFORMERS' TrueHD by 10 miles IMO.:D

After watching the HULK BD, going back to watch Transformers BD is a total disappointment IMO.

The only painful thing is that we'll probably have to wait for a "Captain American" and a "Thor" movie first!

Wolverine is with FOX, isn't it?

Yeah but Marvel Studios owns the rights to the character so they can put him in Avengers if they want. Ever since the Spider-Man fiasco and licensing with Sony, Marvel decided to just start it's own studio and handle the licensing themselves. From now on every single Marvel movie will be under their own licensing so they can do any movies they want.

I read on a rumor site that Marvel is trying very hard to get Brad Pitt to do Thor and Leonardo Dicaprio to do Captain America.

Well, I'm glad Marvel is taking total control.

I can see Brad Pitt as Thor after he did TROY.

But Leonardo Dicaprio? Doesn't he need to have some muscle first?:D I'm thinking like Russell Crowe or something.:D

What about Will Smith as Black Panther?**hee**hee:D

How about Denzel Washington as Nick Fury?:D

I saw the other day that Daniel Craig turned Thor down. That might have been cool.
