Avengers Disassembled


It isn’t often that an animation captures the immediate zeitgeist, perhaps because of the time which is consumed in their creation. However, I think you might agree that Junaid Chundrigar’s Disassembled brings us a tongue in cheek freshness to a movie genre which is in danger of taking itself far too seriously. Here you will see any number of superheroes, including Thor, Captain America, the X-Men and Fantastic Four having what can only be called a very bad day.

You will most likely have your own favorite moment here but I have to say that mine came with the Nick Fury moment when, well, you will see for yourself. Chundrigar is about to graduate from the Utrecht School of the Arts, where he studied animation so come on, someone, give the lad a job!
