The adaptation comic in movies

Rating: Null/10 (10 February 2014)

The success of The Avengers film is a result of the brilliant Marvel's history and its ideas. The Marvel Universe has grown a lot since its beginning in the 1950s. What started as a series of comic books would become one of the most popular entertainment franchises in the world. Marvel has since expanded to explore mediums such as comic books (of course), short films, feature films, video games, and a television series all based on characters from the Marvel Universe. This process made the Marvel to a big fantastic factory of dreams.
The Avengers is an example of film that the people know as transmedia, because the sequence of the film happens in different media, platforms like a game online,a specific novel or graphic novel in comics form, comic, cartoon and film. The process of adaptation is very important as well, especially in this movie, because this process becomes possible to work comic features specific in a film and vice versa.
The film's idea was born from the adaptations of the comic book "The Ultimate Avengers". This comic book gets a new form, a book form that is the graphic novel. This new forn brings a new meaning to the same text.
The Avengers plot talks about the power cosmic cube. This power is the cause a war and in the same time it is to threat a planet's safety threat. The cosmic cube is a specific object in Marvel's stories. The concept was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby and first appeared in "Tales of Suspense", in July 1966. The power cosmic cube is important too, because it transformed its holder's any wish into reality. Here, it becomes
an inexhaustible source of power named Tesseract, which is under the power of S.H.I.E.L.D (Strategic Hazard Intervention Espionage Logistics Directorate)., organization led by Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) that seeks to protect the Earth with the aid of the object. The plan backfires, when Loki (Tom Hiddleston), Thor's brother (Chris Hemsworth), who was trapped in an alternative dimension, returns there with the aid of alien Chitauri and gets the cube to revenge the Terrans and the God of thunder. From there, the feature engages in short stories full of action, which serve to show the bonds that are formed between each hero before the formation of the avengers. There are the Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), Captain America (Chris Evans), Iron Man (Robert Downey JR.), Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Agent Maria Hill (Cobie Smulders) and the other agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg).
Finally, the problem with this film is your specific plot, because for the Marvel comic reader that OK. But the occasional reader and lay person may some difficulty understanding the Marvel Universe. For example, the cosmic cube is a specific ficcional Marvel comics object and this object is very important for many comic stories creations.
