I saw this in theater before Immortals, I also saw a full 3D Ghostrider trailer, wich looks AMAZING IN 3D I MIGHT ADD!
But this is what stole the show for me.

I think it feels a bit off without spidey and wolverine, but with the amazing spiderman movie coming, who knows? He may be in a sequel, avengers 2, if they get that far, and I'm sure they will.

Third person to play the Hulk in just as many movies. Maybe they should have saved that character for when they knew who they wanted to play him.

They did. They planned for Ed Norton to reprise his role, but there was a scheduling problem or some such thing. Norton personally approved of Mark Ruffolo, though. The way I heard it, they weren't going to do it if everyone wasn't going to reprise their roles from the other movies, but well, seems they went back on that. I guess they spent too much time and effort setting it up to let the casting get in the way.

They probably won't. Spider-Man and Wolverine are both part of the New Avengers, this movie is going with the regular line-up.

Also, this isn't a new trailer. The video is dated October 11th, after all.

Not going to happen while Sony and Fox retains the rights to those characters.

And yeah, this isn't new. I think you'll even find there's a thread already about it.

That douche! For what crappy movie did he turn down The Avengers?

It was a negotiation's thing. In particular, despite promising Edward Norton he'd have heavy involvement with production, Marvel then turned around and ignored everything he wanted to do. Even the movie's director, Louis Leterrier was on Norton's side in all of this. From the sound of things it actually would have been a much better movie had it been cut his way, and it was already a really amazing movie.

Short version: Marvel shafted Norton, Norton was kind of difficult to work with, so yeah.
