"The Avengers" 1978 (?) Trailer

This is a brilliantly funny bit of video editing. What if the "Avengers" movie had been made in 1978? It might have looked a little like this...

Paul Lynde as Loki!

I think they crossed the line a few too many times between authentic and just silly, but it was amusing none the less.

Shamefully, I have seen those Captain America TV movies starring Reb Brown more than once and I was a devoted watcher of the Incredible Hulk (although, I lost interest during the show's final season).  In addition to Thor, Daredevil also made a guest appearance with the Hulk.  Awful, awful moments in TV history.

Should I admit I would have loved to have seen this get made? I enjoyed all those old Marvel TV movies and shows including Dr. Strange and the Nicholas Hammond Spider-Man show cheesy as they so truly were.

I'm with ya'. 

Although I think they could have made a better Ironman than that clip used.

The "Iron Man" in those clips wasn't actually Iron Man. Those bits were taken from an obscure '70s TV movie called "Exo-Man," which was intended as a series pilot but wasn't picked up. I belive it was written by the same guy who created "The Six Million Dollar Man."
