Marvel's 'The Avengers' earns its acclaim
By now, The Avengers has already earned more than a billion dollars, sold a bunch of comic-book-themed merchandise to boot and pummeled Battleship and The Dictator so hard at the box office that Disney/Marvel might as well have been shouting "Hulk smash!" Distributor Walt Disney Pictures has wiped its hands of John Carter, the company's early-2012 bomb, Marvel Studios is scheming up a Spidey-Web flowchart of future tie-in sequels, and writer-director Joss Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly) is celebrating the long-deserved mainstream success that might make him the sci-fi/fantasy film director of the decade. None of this could have happened without CGI.
