The Avengers – Premier Buzz and Clip Round-Up

The Avengers premier was tonight, and thanks to Marvel’s YouTube channel, you can view the whole of the red carpet event.

Twitter buzz is all very positive, and I seriously can’t wait. I previously mentioned that I would be attending an Avengers Assemble marathon, culminating in the midnight showing of Marvel’s latest comic book movie offering. I really cannot overstate my excitement.

So until the reviews start rolling in tomorrow (I’ve set up alerts for Rotten Tomatoes), here’s a few videos to tide over the other salivating comic book nerds like myself.

First off, SCHERBATSKY! What are you doing playing S.H.I.E.L.D. badass ladyface Maria Hill?! How did I miss this? Barney must be pleased as punch that you’ve decided to suit up. And also – 3/5 of the HIMYM cast are now Joss Whedon alums. Amazing.

Next, thanks to MTV, we have an interesting tête-à-tête between RDJ’s Tony Stark and Tom Hiddleston’s Loki regarding the actual probability of the malfeasant mischief-maker’s success in his endeavor… whatever that may be.

While not as action packed and… er… animated as the previous Black Widow clip, we do get a nice amuse-bouche of Whedon’s signature dialogue in both of these clips. Absolutely delectable.

And remember when I speculated on whatever else Loki was up to/who the hell does Loki have backing him up? MTV manages to tease us just as much as Joss Whedon himself did at SXSW by getting Hiddleston to expound a little bit upon Loki’s psychology.

And to top it all off, TotalFilm has provided us with a heaping helping of the Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in this fun little Avengers featurette.

That’s all I have for now, kids, but trust I’ll do a review round-up as soon as they start rolling in. I promise to keep spoliers to an absolute minimum

In the meantime, HOW STOKED ARE YOU?!? I’m losing it over here.
