Anyone else catch the premiere last night? I found it interesting that all the mini-sodes they showed as a preview were set before it & none of the footage from them was in the actual episodes. I generally liked it myself. I found the theme-song very catchy & fit's well with Rooney's Iron Man Armored Adventures one. What did everyone else think?

I've only seen the mini-origin episodes & I've loved them! Looking forward to watching the first full episode!

Anyone catch the latest ep? It has Amora & Skurge as the main villains. Which is a slightly annoying as while the episode was advertised on that point they show up very late in it. The majority of the ep was Hulk acting like a brat due to a voice in his head that he thought was Bruce. A total non-surprise when it was revealed to be Amora enchanting him.

I caught the new ep with Amora and Skurge, and again I was not impressed.
I did like the cameo of Black Panther, and the end with Cap's shield.
I'm not happy with the show yet, but I'm going to give it a chance. Maybe it will get better once Cap shows up?

I think it's a great take on the Avengers. They respect what has gone on before and modernized it.
Touch the magic...

I'm digging their version of Cap so far and was pleasantly surprised by the inclusion of Arnim Zola and Dough-Boy(s). Way less enthusiastic about the idea that Helmut might not appear since Heinrich seems to be semi-immortal.

Well, my biggest problem with it was Tony Stark. He sure doesn't come across as a genius, or even a womanizing frat boy like the movies. Its more like he's the money and comedy relief. He's to chipper and happy.... to well adjusted. Just strikes me wrong. And Thor seems like a blockhead. Hank and Jan work well, though Jan seems a little less sophisticated than in the books. Cap a touch to rah rah gung ho. But thats in his voice. Its not a natural voice for what he says... it sounds like its acting, but the character acting, not the actor acting, if that makes any sense. Its too much, like the wolverine stuff from the eighties and nineties sayin "bub" and trying to sound tough.
Janet should be more like Grace Kelly in Rear Window. Or thats kinda how I always saw her. Tony has responsibilities that actually matter to him behind the playboy he shows to the world. Thor isn't romance novel beefcake, like he seems here. But, as to the actual storyline and animation, spot on I say.
Damn you, you kids! Get off my lawn or I'm callin' tha cops!

I agree Tony seems a little "off" so far. I don't think Thor's a "blockhead" I think his Asgardian/warrior mindset takes some getting used to. I like Jan in the show so far since she seems a lot less flighty then she's usually portrayed in the comics.

I loved the inclusion of MODOK in the newest ep but hated the inclusion of Wonderman. I saw the ending coming a million miles away but still hoped he'd stay dead.

So that explains how the Black Panther is going to stay on the team. It looks like the Hawkeye (& Black Widow hopefully) storyline will pick up again next week.

Anyone else catch the recent Kang Trilogy of episodes? I thought they were quite well done. I especially like the teams "Space" suits.

Very well done. I've enjoyed watching them on youtube. Hawkeye even gets a moment or two to shine.
