Nobody forgot!
When Joe and Anthony Russo appeared on stage, people got excited. People thought it meant an Avengers 4 trailer or at least Avengers game footage would be shown.
So how many of you are watching The Game Awards just to see if the Russo Brothers are showing any Avengers 4 stuff? (Yeah I am).

Everyone: The Russo Brothers are at the game awards??? This can only mean ONE THING!

However, after that, the lights went down suddenly.
People expecting Avengers were disappointed.
Russo Brothers Enter Stage
“Oooohhhh Avengers 4? Avengers Project?!”
*Stage goes dark*
Joker is Smash announcement
Disappointed #TheGameAwards

Don’t get me wrong Super Smash Bros. Is cool But the #GameAwards2018 just really made me think they were gonna show the Avengers 4 trailer. How are you gonna have the Russo Brothers present then walk off stage and have the power “shut off” just to show a DLC.

Lights went out after the @Russo_Brothers left the stage and I had a feeling that the Avengers 4 trailer was gonna drop. It didn’t. Then i got sad. #TheGameAwards
— Eder (@Eder_Cheddar) December 7, 2018
Are you really gonna dramatically kill the lights for a trailer while the Russo Brothers are leaving the stage and not give us Avengers??? Not cool #TheGamesAwards

when the Russo Brothers walked off stage and everything went dark and it WASN’T the Avengers 4 trailer, I died a little inside#TheGameAwards
— InsertMerryNameHere (@neufonewhodis) December 7, 2018
For real though! A total let down for me imo. They just invited the Russos for nothing, then??

So what was the point of the Russo brothers being here? #TheGameAwards
— Dixin Ma’ass (@platinumseungri) December 7, 2018
The Russo Bros were trying to tell us that it’s not called Avengers 4; it’s Avengers: Fortnite. #TheGameAwards pic.twitter.com/pOy98OFK36

The marvel films became an incredibly cynical money grab a LONG time ago. How are people still so excited about these things?
Because that cynical money grab still spits out gems like ragnarok, the best Australian film in years.
Australian film?
Filmed here, full of aussies and kiwis, references the castle, namedrops holdens, everyone drinks CUB tallies…
It’s pretty Australian.
I wouldnt classify it as an Australian film though. A kiwi directed it, it had aussie and kiwi actors. Doesnt make it an Australian film. Is Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales a Australian film? it was filmed on the GC?
It detracts from actual good Aussie films out there.
Just to name a few
Son of a Gun
Sweet Country
Breath
Rover
Mystery Road
I love Marvel films but to say its the best Aussie movie in years is not accurate. Support Aussie/Kiwi films. If you havent checked out any of the above movies do your self a favor and check our Rover. Even Breath is up there as well.
But, why?
Some will say it’s harmless fun, but it’s only really fun for the Russo’s.
Do they have such contempt for their fans?
