The Avengers (2012 film)
Marvel's The Avengers (classified under the name Marvel Avengers Assemble in the United Kingdom and Ireland), or simply The Avengers, is a 2012 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics superhero team of the same name, produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. It is the sixth film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film was written and directed by Joss Whedon and features an ensemble cast that includes Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Tom Hiddleston, Clark Gregg, Cobie Smulders, Stellan Skarsgård, and Samuel L. Jackson. In the film, Nick Fury, director of the peacekeeping organization S.H.I.E.L.D., recruits Iron Man, Captain America, the Hulk, and Thor to form a team that must stop Thor's brother Loki from subjugating Earth.
The film's development began when Marvel Studios received a loan from Merrill Lynch in April 2005. After the success of the film Iron Man in May 2008, Marvel announced that The Avengers would be released in July 2011. With the signing of Johansson in March 2009, the film was pushed back for a 2012 release. Whedon was brought on board in April 2010 and rewrote the original screenplay by Zak Penn. Production began in April 2011 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, before moving to Cleveland, Ohio, in August and New York City in September. The film was converted to 3D in post-production.

The Black Widow
by: Bruce DickinsonAnd here, my prize, the black widow.
isn't she lovely? and so deadly.
her kiss is fifteen times more poisonous than the rattlesnake.
and you see her venom is highly neurotoxic
which is to say that it attacks the central nervous system
causing intense pain
profuse sweating
difficulty in breathing
loss of consciousness
violent convulsions
and finally death.
you know what i think i love the most about her
is her inborn need to dominate and possess.
such power and dignity, unhampered by sentiment.
if i may put forward a slice of personal philosophy
i feel that man has ruled this world as a stumbling dimented child-king long enough!
and as his empire crumbles, my precious black widow shall rise as his most fitting successor!
These words he speaks are true
we're all humanary stew
if we don't pledge allegiance to
the black widow
The horror that he'll brings
the horror of his sting
the unholiest of kings
the black widow
Our minds will be destroyed
and every girl and boy
will learn to be employed
the black widow
Love me
yes we love me
love him
yes we love him
love me
yes we love him, oh
He sits upon his throne
and picks at all the bones
of his husbands and his wives
he's devoured
he stares with a gleam
with a laugh so obscene
and the children and the virgins
he's deflowered
Love me
yes we love me
love him
yes we love him
love me
yes we love him, oh
Our thoughts are hot and crazed
our dreams are webbed in haze
mindless, senseless daze
the black widow
These words he speaks are true
we're all humanary stew
if we don't pledge allegiance to
ha-ha-ha, the black widow
