Brian Bendis gives his take on the build up to 'The Avengers'

The comic book writer shares his thoughts on the Captain America, Iron Man and Thor scripts and how he thinks 'The Avengers' will work!

This from MTV's Splash Page:

"Having read the 'Captain America' movie script and the 'Thor' movie scripts and 'Iron Man 2' and everything, and seeing them all develop, nothing is more exciting to me than the 'Avengers' movie," Bendis told MTV News. "It's absolutely going to be something better than— different than—anything we've seen before."

"I think the challenge is absolutely there. It's an immense amount of work, but the payoff will be gigantic."

The 'New Avengers' writer also went on to say that he was confident a movie of this scale will work.

"My advice is, has been, and will be, that much like the comics, you look at movies like the 'Oceans' movies that have all these different flavors, you put the flavors together and you cook 'em," Bendis said. "It absolutely can be done."

"Look at 'The Great Escape' or other movies that have all these big elements to them, and even elements that don't seem that they would fit can rub up against each other in a very excellent way," he explained. "They really can create something you wouldn't even imagine you had before."

@joshw

I wrote this article about two hours ago and they removed it...I checked but i didn't see any past articles so I'm confused as to why it was removed now.

I like the Ultimates Fury so much better, if they weren't going with the Ultimates then why did they cast a black Fury then?

Also SLJ makes up for no African-American Avenger in the movie but nothing beats the real Nick Fury.

why is everybody obsessed on this site with either hating ackles or loving him, and y does everybody love the cw here. the cw sucks in my opinion.......... well i like smallville but everything except for that

@Viper Agreed - Nick Fury rocks the house. Perhaps your rationale for SLJ is right! Worried it will become the Ultimates version of everyone/thing.

As long as they stay as far away from Ultimate Thor as possible I'll be fine.

@ TeaBag: I liked the first oceans movie too. There was lots of funny funny stuff in it.

@ LEEE777, Nice aftershave LOL ;)

@ Joob: It's not everybody. It's just the ones that do the most arguing. Peronally I don't give a hoot in hell about the CW, Ackles, Supernatural, OR Shitville.

Even if I had the freee time to waste on boring silly tv shows I still wouldn't lol

God, Sam Jax as Fury huh, Well at least we'll have one black guy in this movie or else i wasnt gonna go to see it. I mean c'mon, other than pure nostalgia i almost had no other personal investment to go see it.
(And Bendis, stay outta this one i dont need any of your Dawson's Creek - Ultimate Spiderman crap mucking up this movie.)

You Jensen Ackles fags are going to be so pissed when they cast Nicholas Cage as Cap and Queen Latifah as Red Skull.
