Joss Whedon's AVENGERS movie opens on May 4 in the U.S.
On the day before...May 3...AMC and Marvel are teaming up to put all relevant introductory/pre-cursor films on-screen on one massive marathon: IRON MAN, THE INCREDIBLE HULK, IRON MAN 2, THOR (3D), and CAPtAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER (3D) will all lead into a midnight debut of THE AVENGERS (also in 3D for these screenings).
THIS piece at AMC's site offers a small list of theaters already confirmed to be hosting this marathon - on Friday March 16 the list will be expanded to include other venues. Tickets for venues on this expanded list will go onsale on the 16th as well.
In tangentially related new , the folks over at Latino Review have posted a video which appears to be a combination of informed conjecture and inside information about certain AVENGERS movies happenings that'll set up IRON MAN 3. While LR seems to be reading between between the lines a bit here, everything they say sounds extremely plausible-to-probable. Worth checking out...
