Joss Whedon putting together 'The Avengers'

At first I was sad that Jon Favreau (Iron Man 2) wasn't going to direct The Avengers, but now I think they've found the greatest man they could to direct the project. After short lived talks of Louis Letterier (Clash of the Titans) directing the film, Joss Whedon has come out of nowhere as the triumphant director of the anticipated film that's been coming for years. So far we have only half of the group needed for the film (Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk) and the other two are on their way next year (Thor, Captain America).

I'm really glad Whedon was chosen for the job because he has shown great prowess at directing all sorts of genres, and will be greatly adept at blending the comedy, sci-fi, and fantasy aspects of the characters to create a singular vision. I'm looking forward to seeing Robert Downey Jr., Edward Norton, and Chris Hemsworth coming together for this epic collaboration. Oh and...
yeah.
