Trivial Avengers closing scene question

from Elemental Forums


Just saw The Avengers in the English version original at a cinema in Berlin -- quite enjoyable, methinks. In the final shot before the credits roll, we see the Stark building, heavily damaged, so that the STARK logo is blasted away, leaving only an A and a bunch of wiring and damaged concrete. In the area to the right of the A, in the wiring and damaged concrete, it appeared to me that there was some attempt at an etching of a kind of "subliminal message"; I'm not sure how to say this in English, but maybe you know what I mean: in what otherwise appears to be the blasted facade of the building's uppermost section, there appeared to me to be two lines of (I suppose) one word each, but the shot did not last long enough for me to get a good look, and I cannot find a still photo of that shot.

Does anybody know what I mean? Does anyone have a still shot of the scene I am talking about that we might be able to peruse it? I wonder if maybe I was simply hallucinating, was tired, or the 3-D glasses were simply just scratched and blurry.

Thanks much

Not sure, I guess this gives me an excuse to go watch it again though  :grin:

I remember seeing the word Avengers in there but that was just a glimpse and that's all i got from it.

Not very helpful huh?  Well until you find what you're looking for here's something to dull the pain.  :beer:

I don't know if what you saw was more clue but the Stark Towers will become the Avenger's headquarters.

Hey thanks much for those replies. I am fairly sure there was some attempt at a "subliminal message", but it could have been a bit of advertising ("smoke Camel cigarettes") for all I know. Would any of the smart people here know where I could find a still shot of the scene I mean? I seem to come up blank. Thank you.

That was not the closing scene . . I hope you stayed until after the credits.

(Hope to have made clear in my OP that I mean the final scene before the credits; I realize the two space villians had their chat, and that the American audiences got to view the team in the schwarma restaurant, which we in Germany did not get to see.)

Yeah - it will be the avengers tower.  In the comics, there was avengers mansion that was funded by start and there was also Avengers tower.  The A was just a little foreshadowing.

At the very end, they showed Thanos.  Now, Thanos is a cosmic badass that at one point got hold of something called the infinity guantlet... which made him pretty much God.  I doubt they'd go with the infinity gauntlet story line as the scope is massive and brought in pretty much every character in the marvel universe, but you never know.  They also seem to be following the ultimates story line to some degree.  That said, I haven't followed it in a bit, so I have no idea if they brought in Thanos or what.
