Looks too mechanical to be the Midgard serpent.

So it DOES fly. The end to the trailer made it look more snake like so I thought midgard serpenct but now I'm not so sure.

This is the marketing hurdle I want to see them tackle next:

The Dark Knight Rises: the official DC comic book movie of Marvel's The Avengers.

Alright, the Leviathan looks EPIC. Nothing beats a good giant monster in a film.

It has teeth and eyes if you look closly at the picture, and if you watch the trailer you can see them too.

It's nice to know that they are paying Marvel $$ while promoting the movie. More $$$ bigger budget, more CBM movies. Now if only Spider-Man and Batman can get it together. Avengers is destroying them both when it comes to promotion and I don't expect that to change even when we are a month out from their respective release dates. Although, no more Batmobile drive thru ads.

mstaley3000 - 4/2/2012, 9:43 PM
I think that the Leviathan is merely a representation of the Midgard Serpent and Fin Fang Foom (who may also be the Serpent) who will never actually appear in Thor or Iron Man. It has the same kind of thingy on its back as the Serpent does and the little thingies that hang off of Foom. As far as otherwise, it seems to be biomechanical.

@Lego.

You are on a website called comic book movie.com.

The Avengers is actually based on a comic book.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

@Lego Well, if ya don't like it, you can go on the internet and complain. Oh wait, you just did that! Haters are so predictable lol

I think it's just a warship for either the Korbonites or the Dark Elves to pilot. If it were Fing Fang Foom, I don't think there would be any doubt in mind about it for fans.
