Members Cheap21 Posted April 24, 2012 Members Share Posted April 24, 2012 Tomorrow's episode of GENERAL HOSPITAL combines good old soapy drama with a good dose of superheroes! In a tie-in to the upcoming release of The Avengers -- the film based on the Marvel Comics crimefighting team being distributed by Walt Disney Pictures -- Spinelli heads to the local Port Charles movie theater to catch a screening of the film. While there, he bumps into Matt, who's taken Cameron to see the Hulk, Captain America, Iron Man and Thor in action as well. As Spinelli contemplates his theory as to who killed Dr. Lisa Niles, expect some funny twists and turns, Jackal-style! Tune in to GH tomorrow, Wednesday, April 25. The Avengers opens on Friday, May 4. http://abc.soapsindepth.com/2012/04/the-avengers-inspire-the-jackal.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted April 24, 2012 Members Share Posted April 24, 2012 Cameron is probably the only one in that scene with an IQ above 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted April 24, 2012 Members Share Posted April 24, 2012 This type of cross-promotion made sense when there was an actual soap audience. Soaps needs need an Avenger or two to actually show up in order for it to benefit the show in any way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted April 24, 2012 Members Share Posted April 24, 2012 Don't know who or what a Korvac is, but he'll become a champ for life if he succeeds at this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted April 25, 2012 Members Share Posted April 25, 2012 Have we ever seen a Port Charles movie theater before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 25, 2012 Members Share Posted April 25, 2012 Korvac is one of my favorite stories from the Avengers (I can't read anything Avengers now, thanks to the hack writing the comic). Various Avengers started vanishing into thin air, and the last few who were left learned that a space being was taking them all to protect them from Korvac. Korvac then vaporized this man. Korvac was some type of computer who found godlike sentience and was all powerful. The entire Avengers team fought him and they were all slaughtered - he was only defeated when, as his back was turned, his equally cosmic wife killed him to save the cosmos. When he died he resurrected all the Avengers. (This story also had the iconic image of the Avengers, who were facing huge government cuts at this time, going to a battle by taking the local bus).

Members Vee Posted April 25, 2012 Members Share Posted April 25, 2012 I can't believe you brought up the Korvac Saga. What GH really needs is Wanda Maximoff. (Though why the X-Men haven't hunted her down and killed her is beyond me.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 25, 2012 Members Share Posted April 25, 2012 If the Avengers can get over her using the corpse of a former team member to blow up their mansion and kill team members, then the X-Men can get over their latest bout of "do we have powers/we don't have powers." I'd even settle for Mantis at this point. Get on the bus! I guess the closest daytime came was Lucinda, Kim, Susan, Lisa, Nancy for an ATWT anniversary. http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/highlight-of-the-korvac-saga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
