THE AVENGERS To Be Released In India Before The US?

Apparently Joss Whedon's highly anticipated superhero team up movie will hit India a full week before the United States..

Release dates seem to cause a bit of a stir here on CBM, even when it's just a few days in the difference. But It seems that India will get to sample (arguably) the most anticipated CBM of all time before the the US, on the same day the Brits do. At least according to Zeenews.india.com..






New Delhi: American superhero film "Avengers" will release in India April 27 next year, a week before its release in the US.

In India, the marketing plan for the film will include a roll-out with UTV network and Disney network hosting "Avengers" trailer roadblock on the channel at 6.15 p.m. Sunday.


This seems to be on the level and is being reported by various other sites, but of course without confirmation it's just hearsay. Either way it's not exactly a big deal, but interesting nonetheless. Anyone fancy booking flights to India?

Yeah and they're having a RED DOT sale too!!!
TheRealEnrico - 12/8/2011, 7:04 PM
@grif I was thinking it wouldn't matter(cuz I didn't care). But you are very right.

This is not a smart move for marvel at all. What is marvel thinking?

I didn't care where it came out first because could care less how fast or who gets to see it first. I just want to watch it when ever it comes out.

Maybe they think nothing can hurt their hype???

This is not smart business to me.

the uk gets it 27.4.12 as well,probably most of europe does as well.

Nah, it's cool, show everybody else first, I'm cool, yeah Marvel, I'll wait, just like I've been waiting to hear about other villains besides Loki been-there-done-that.

@leo888 LOL.

@Thunderkutfo Ah, the Red Dot joke, never cease to make me laugh.

batmanrises - 12/8/2011, 7:45 PM

batmanrises - 12/8/2011, 8:23 PM
Irons, you'll find this troll talks out of his ass a lot with facts he can't back up. But this is the internet after all...lol. Who could even fathom a single city with 1 billion people? Dumbass.
DioFoRio - 12/8/2011, 8:29 PM
wonder if they'll show it on the Djarlin Express
batmanrises - 12/8/2011, 8:35 PM
Prove that you don't talk out of your ass? You're a Canadian who went on a rant the other day about how much America sucks and we cause trouble and every other country hates us and we're a bunch of cousin-f@ckers....and then followed that up by telling another user to "watch more American TV" because that's where you get your facts from...

Yea, you're right, watching tv about something and never going outside makes you an expert. I defer to your expertise, sir.
fernandesvincent - 12/8/2011, 8:48 PM
India FTW..... Finally!!!!
SageMode - 12/8/2011, 8:58 PM
UGH, Why the [frick] does Marvel do this BULLSHIT!???? THIS MAKES NO SENSE.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU........................

batmanrises - 12/8/2011, 9:02 PM
Now you're dedicating youtube videos to me? I know your avatar is two guys kissing but I'm strictly chickly. Sorry dude.

"dont like it dont talk to me"

Haha please...

I don't follow you around in the comments and chatroom nipping at your ankles like a chihuahua like you do to me. I value and care about your opinion like a shoe cares about and values the nasty, scummy chewing gum that gets stuck to it.

And I'm not warping any truth, you actually did say you watched a lot of American TV and that it informed your America Bashing.

One more thing. Just some food for thought: You think I'm so childish yet you follow me from article to article trying to pick fights with me...What does that make you? lol
CaptainAwesome17 - 12/8/2011, 9:07 PM
i'm going to be there then.does anyone know if it will be in english and how many theaters it will be in?
batmanrises - 12/8/2011, 9:26 PM
Eat a dick Ziggy.
batmanrises - 12/8/2011, 9:57 PM
Not racist more like nationalist. Get it right, McRib! :)
SuspenseSmith - 12/8/2011, 10:11 PM
So... why India of all countries? The Avengers must really love curry or something. I do to. I wouldn't blame them if that was the excuse.
SuspenseSmith - 12/8/2011, 10:12 PM
It'll probably be a crappier version with unfinished CGI, and none will be the wiser. lol
PoPcornDude - 12/8/2011, 10:22 PM
well, people from India get the american jobs first, what's the surprise here... ?

lol
KingKazma - 12/8/2011, 10:49 PM
Ok, I didnt mind UK. But India... really?! In a population where they keep building hotels and putting attractions up to increase their tourism but it doesnt hide of the fact that half those hotels are almost completely empty almost all the time and people in their own country are suffering fro homeslessness and arent really doing much about it. Hell, it's not like their law is really stopping people from pirating foreign films. This shits gonna ruin everything. Marvel, you're getting closer and closer to losing me as your fanboy -_-
SuspenseSmith - 12/8/2011, 10:49 PM
@PoPcornDude...

only cabs, 7-11 cashiers, and call centers... basically the jobs that Americans don't want. Who wants to listen to retards that can't find the power button on their remotes, sit in rush hour traffic, or serve slurpees all day?

lol

Anyone want to get some curry with me? Craving it for some reason.
darthbobtarkas - 12/9/2011, 1:31 AM
YES! THIS MAKES UP FOR THE LACK OF DARK KNIGHT PROLOGUE IN INDIA! WOOOHOOOO APRIL 27 CAN'T COME FAST ENOUGH NOW!
WolvieCBM - 12/9/2011, 3:44 AM
Guys, it's being released in most international countries a week earlier. This happens all the time and it's not really anything new. Not sure why is everyone acting like it's the end of the world or something. Calm down.
marvel72 - 12/9/2011, 5:17 AM
it should have a worldwide release but it is only five days,you did get captain america before everyone else & most marvel films make more money overseas than america.
Fogs - 12/9/2011, 5:33 AM
@WolvieCBM - Exactly. People get touchy everytime some news regarding their launch strategies are released.

Sorry but worldwide grossing means a lot today. Also I'm happy to be in Brazil :P
Fogs - 12/9/2011, 5:33 AM
also, what marvel72 said.
WolvieCBM - 12/9/2011, 5:42 AM
Aklash: Of course. Studios really don't care anymore for US gross alone at all. A lot of films proved that. I mean Avengers will be released ONLY a couple of days earlier internationally, not a big deal. I mean arguing with someone about this news is just weird. Haha.
Fogs - 12/9/2011, 6:12 AM
WolvieCBM, "arguing with someone about this news is just weird" - yet it happens all the time, hehe.
