In The Avengers, the characters all stick to how we think they will behave. Tony Stark, or Iron Man, is still the sassy, brilliant, billionaire engineer that we see in his previous movies. Thor is still getting used to Earth and how people interact. Loki is still mad at his brother and wants to become a ruler. Captain America is still trying to assimilate the fact that he is not in 1940’s. Bruce Banner is capable of control his stress and anger, meaning he can control his urges to turn into the Incredible Hulk. Each character has their own personality and characteristics, but in the end they all learn to work together. Bruce Banner and Tony Stark work well together because they are the most intelligent of the group. Tony Stark designs his own weapons and Iron Man suits and Bruce Banner is a nuclear physicist. Thor and Captain America work well together because they are both trying to get used to the world and everything they come across. Black Widow and Hawkeye have a past working together, and continue to work together throughout the movie. But in the end, each character worked together as a team and saved New York, and the world, from Loki and his …show more content…

Tony Stark is supposed to be portrayed as a “genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist” (The Avengers) and Downey does a great job fulfilling that. Another actor that does a good job representing their character was Chris Hemsworth. Once again, Whedon stuck with the actors that played in their separate movies. Chris Hemsworth is a skillful actor; he does a great job acting as Thor, a God from Asgard. Thor has been to Earth before, but is still in the process of getting used to the people, their interactions, and the technology. Thirdly, Mark Ruffalo acting as Bruce Banner and Hulk; this was Ruffalo’s first time acting as Bruce Banner/ Hulk and he did an incredible

    Is Deadpool a villain or a superhero? Well, Deadpool must be a hero because he sometimes does the right thing for the right reasons, but his rash actions speak louder than his honest word. Deadpool is that one anti-hero that everyone questions whether if he is a villain or a hero. Deadpool is known as the mercenary with a mouth “because he is quite talkative, with long streams of dialogue, rambling, and vocal thoughts” (Dustcircle).
