The Avengers

Wait after the credits for the extra bits. I insisted my nephew to wear my Ironman shirt (does not fit me anymore after three months).
 
Basically if a film sucks and it plays in the US first, American audiences will recognize this and the film will be panned, thus ruining its chances for making money overseas. But if the movie sucks and plays overseas first, foreign audiences will not notice the suckiness and flock to the movie simply because it's American. Or so the theory goes.
 
I think this movie is making our cars in the spot light again.

Acura is using this movie to revive the NSX name.

Regardless of if the actual car actually it the show room or Acura just using it for marketing purposes, people are reminded the supercar from Japan and it's pretty good for us that owns one of them :smile:

Ahhh.....makes sense.

I haven't seen the movie yet (cause I'm in the USA :smile:) but is it clear in the movie that the car is an Acura NSX?
 
The name "NSX" will probably not mentioned in the movie, but people will find out by either word of mouth or from newspaper, TV or magazines.

Just like what Audi did with the R8, I believe it was featured in the movie i-Robot before it hit the showroom.

Haha... nice theory. Quite a lot of logic in it. I guess with the amount of money the US movie makers put into a movie the rest of the world expect money well spent making them! Admit some of the movies are good... not all. And some do suck.
Might be surprising, in many places American movies are not the first choice :smile:
Should see some of the rest of world's movie. No special effects on a grand scale, just good story telling.
Still wonder what is the actual reason for the delayed showing...

Watched it over the weekend with some friends...thought it was good, and liked that each character had the appropriate amount of screen time :cool:
