Damon Lindeloftweeted thatThe Avengerstrailer was like a Comedy Central roast, hosted by Tony Stark. He then started a hashtag ofAvengerroast jokes.#AvengersRoast. Really funny.Autumn SocietymemberCarlos Lermswhipped up thisAvengersfan art in honor of the new trailer. Very cool.

There’s a visceral thrill to see Cap and Thor and Iron Man all in the same room, but if you’re not already attached to those characters, it didn’t give you much of a reason to start now.

Jim Carrey, of course, was the perfect Riddler. And then I had the great Tommy Lee Jones and a lot of other great people are in that movie.
