THE SOUND OF THE AVENGERS

What are 3 important things that the filmmakers used when creating the soundscape of The Avengers? Why do you feel that these three things are important? What one thing did you find the most interesting? Why?

   One thing the filmmakers made sure of was to honor the original sounds of Captain America's shield and Thor's hammer. They were made in their first film and they brought them back for this film as well. Also, Joss Whedon told the sound designers that even though the film has many explosions, he wanted them to work with the fact that the Avengers were a very dysfunctional family. This film also has a monster. The Hulk. Now they have something even bigger to worry about. However, Joss made it easy by choosing which sound the hulk should sound like. It was a combination of many different people. This gave the designer a lot to work with and made his job simpler. I'd be more interested in watching/listening to the rough edits of some of the action scenes. To see how big the differences are from the final cut.
