    I am shocked about how successful this movie has become!! I remember collecting Marvel cards growing up! Those things have got to be worth money now.

    I’m not shocked at all! The movie backed up all the major hype. It was great! Wayyy better then the last group of super hero’s they put in a movie… Fantastic 4…. Ewww, just 2 very disappointing movies. This one put more heros in a movie and gave them each pretty equal screen time, a good villan, AND killer action!! Hulk was finally made right.
