Folks tuning in to The Super Bowl to watch the Giants beat The Patriots got an added bonus: the one minute commercial for the upcoming Marvel Studios film, The Avengers! And the studio decided to add a few more seconds for the fans that looked it up on Facebook!
It looked fantastic, and The Avengers is probably the most anticipated movie of the year for comic fans! Take that, Chris Nolan!
Though I really enjoyed Spider-Man (2002), that partcular depiction of The Green Goblin left me wanting a bit more. The acting was fine, I just didn’t care for the visual.
Well, here’s some abandoned makeup designs for The Green Goblin. I really like the look, and I wished they would have used it.

Megan Fox told MTV.com that her character in the upcoming supernatural western Jonah Hex isn’t one you’ll recognize from the comics.
“They’ve changed her name a couple of times—it’s Leila now,” Fox told the site. “She is a prostitute. She’s a good ol’ working girl, and she’s a love interest to Jonah [Josh Brolin] … of sorts. I mean, it’s by no means a classic type of relationship.”
The movie, directed by Jimmy Hayward and based on the DC Comic, also stars John Malkovich, Will Arnett and Michael Shannon. It opens Aug. 6, 2010.
“That movie is gonna be amazing,” Fox said. “It’s a post-Civil War, apocalyptic-type western. The director, Jimmy, is a lunatic, and he might be a genius. From some of the things I’ve seen him shoot, it’s a badass movie.”
