A massive industry was created just to get to this movie
If The Avengers is even moderately successful, they're saying that the franchise will have more box office than the Harry Potter films, which is the current champ.

It looks like Downey/Iron Man is going to be the pivotal role in explaining the team and the story. That's perfect.
This film is just excellently cast. My only gripe would be that I still think Mark Valley was born to play Captain America. Plus, the new guy as Bruce Banner is untested.
I wonder if Loki will truly be the only villain as he was in the first Avengers comic way back when? I wondered if we'd see Ultron, possibly the #1 Avengers villain, but he was created by Hank Pym (Giant Man/Ant Man), and we haven't seen him yet.
I honestly have no idea who the hell would be the villain(s) in a sequel right now. That's the problem with the Avengers and the JLA, it's hard to create good villains to offset all of their powers.
