Marvel's Avengers Assemble: Assembly Required



Have to agree with the one star guy. However...
Loved "Earth's Mightiest Heroes"! Marvel has made a huge mistake by sacrificing character development for better animation. A good story can be told with stick figures and still be a good story. I guess you can tell I am not impressed with "Avengers Assemble". If I wanted this type of story telling I would watch "Marvel Superhero Squad" more often(Hero up!). But really, a two episode release!? If it was better than EMH I would probably buy it. So far the writers of these "Squadies" have not shown any promise in these first two episodes. Go back to the EMH formula and release a 13 episode or more DVD and I will buy it.

Really Marvel? 2 episodes
Sorry Pass.... wait for a 13 or 26 episode release, oh and bring back EMH while your at it, AA is an awful replacement. *Just wanted to edit my review slightly as it appears based on the now revealed running time (112 minuuets) that there will be at least 3 "bonus" episodes. One of these has been revealed as a Hulk & The Agents of SMASH episode "Galactus Goes Green", which as of this date has not even aired on Disney (that I assume will change, although EMH S2 had an episode that never aired at all for some odd reason...). The others will probably be an Ultimate Spider-Man and something else featuring as many crossovers as possible. Bonus Episodes are nice, but still not enough to justify a purchase especially when a season is 26 episodes long.

With only half of USM S1 on DVD to date (and the 13 disc 2 DVD set didn't even have the episodes in order, just randomly chosen episodes featuring other heroes), this could get messy very fast. Its nice Disney has three shows with...

2 Episodes?!
what's the next release going to have?
1 episode?!
this show has hardly begun airing the 1st season!
you can thank Disney for buying Marvel for this strategy.
