Movie Power Rankings #5 Breaking Dawn (Hit Fix)

Hard to believe, but after years of rumors and hype a big screen "Avengers" movie is pretty much just eight months away.  The Marvel Studios superhero ensemble is in its last days of shooting in Cleveland, Ohio, but a few of the film's stars popped into Disney's D23 Expo last weekend providing the first real sneak peek at the Joss Whedon flick.

In case you hadn't heard, the extended scene featured all the film's major players including Nick "Sick of cameos" Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), returning villain Loki (Tom Hiddleston), the Black "Still sexy" Widow (Scarlett Johansson), Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), Bruce Banner aka the Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Captain "Who knew we'd make more than Thor?" America (Chris Evans), the god of thunder (and abs) Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and, or course, Iron "you're welcome for all the profit Disney" Man (Robert Downey, Jr.).  Attendees got a glimpse of some nice bickering between Fury and Loki as well as Loki and Tony Stark.  The latter laying out the memorable dig "We have a Hulk" which should be on T-shirts everywhere just in time for Christmas (hint, hint).  Of course, Disney could have created much more buzz by having Downey, Jr., Hemsworth, Johansson and crew show up at Comic-Con in front of 10,000 fans in Hall H only a few weeks earlier, but then they couldn't make money off it. Still, it created more than enough chatter for the Mighty "Avenegers" to pop back into the top spot in this week's movie power rankings.

As for the rest of this week's list…

August 26, 2011

1. "The Avengers" (last week no. 2)
Joss Whedon's expected blockbuster just might live up to the hype.

2. "The Dark Knight Rises" (last week no. 3)
You can say goodbye to Pittsburgh, but you can't get the paparazzi off your back.  This week: Gary Oldman and Marion Cotilard.

3. "The Hunger Games" (last week no. 12)
Finally, the first footage of the much-hyped "expected" franchise will be revealed on Sunday. We're waiting to be impressed.

4. "Wolverine 2" (not ranked)

Did you ever think you'd have to wait until 2013 for another 'Wolverine' movie?  Trust us, neither did Hugh Jackman or the execs at 20th Century Fox.

5. "The Twilight Saga" (last week no. 8)
Wait - an MTV Awards show without some sort of 'Twilight' sneak peek?  RPattz in the house?  KStew? Um, Taylor…?  Whew, that was close.
