They should have opened with Egg Shen.

Can we get an Avengers West Coast movie? Lol! I used to read those comics!

I've heard 'there's nothing new added'. I've heard 'wait until after the credits'. Which is it?

I'm assuming it's the same after credits stuff that was in the original theatrical run.

It looks like it's: "nothing new added".

Joss Whedon Talks ‘The Avengers’ Deleted Scenes, Says He Was Trying To Make A War Movie

Whedon was recently approached and asked why the scenes didn’t make the cut, to which he was pretty candid about.

“Two factors. One: The movie was three hours long. Two: Audiences didn’t respond to it as well in the movie as I think they would as a DVD extra. Most of them didn’t know who this character was or what the context was, and they were like, 'Uhhh, I don’t know why I’m supposed to be personally involved in this character I don’t know.' The rollout to the Avengers getting to Loki was so gradual that people were getting restless. I thought Cobie [Smulders] nailed it, and the reason I thought it was necessary is because I was trying to make a war movie and I wanted to give context that something bad had happened in the past," he told Vulture. "In a war movie, you don’t know who’s going to live or die, but you do know that this war happened and that [the characters] are going to be in a dire circumstance, and I wanted to create that atmosphere.”

Oh, yeah, I finally watched the Avengers, 3 months late!
