“Premakes” The Avengers (1952)

The "Premakes" series of videos take recognizable properties and "remake" them with classic early film footage. This particular one, a 1950s sci-fi version of The Avengers is pretty freaking awesome.
 


The inventiveness of this video is pretty astounding. And lucky for them there was a Captain America serial in 1944.

  15. Amazing Fan Trailer, and there are even some other links after the vid finishes, the 1950’s ‘Empire Strikes Back’ is really good too

  16. Check out the annotated video of this on Youtube.  It showcases all the cameos (Spider-Man, Stan Lee, Watcher, Rick Jones) and other nice details.

     And his other videos are great.  Love the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" with Charlton Heston in the 1950s.

  17. Wow!  An encyclopedic knowledge of comics and vintage movies/TV as well as the incredible creative ability to mash it all together! I watched The Avengers Premake and the shot by shot breakdown several times. Here’s
