I was pleasantly surprised that the Chitariu from Ultimates in a modified form showed up -- but it wouldn't have been a surprise to me if I had checked SF this morning.

You fucking dumbass.
I don't think something mentioned within the first minute of the movie counts as a spoiler. I mean, I'd heard it quite a few times before already. It's not like he mentioned their boss or anything.

After a Reviewing

The missile had a was pretty big. The missile must have traveled multiple kilometers to the Chitauri flagship (given that we see some Leviathans flying past it is probably multiple kilometers long). It then blew up and then the fireball reached out past were the portal was. Given its size of the missile, I believe it was a Phase-2 Warhead.

Also, the guns have enough force to send someone flying backwards on impact. Black Widow blows away a few of them with a stolen Chitauri rifle (not a Heavy Gun) and they are shoved off their feet. Cap took a shot from one of them and lived, but...

1-He's Captain America.
2-SHEILD probably gave him some top notch body armor.

Wasn't it in effect sort of preventing anything from getting back into the rift? Not just a protective bubble around the cube and the generator? I seem to remember the 'Jet-skis' and the first big lizard-borg having a 'shimmer' type thing happen as they came through and then 'peeled' off in their attacks? Only once the cube was turned off as a portal power source would there maybe have been any chance of anything going back up through the portal. Everything else was coming out. Only Stark and the missile went in.

Much cheers to you and yours.
I think it was just transfering from Vacuum to Atmosphere that we were seeing. Any of the portal shielding would just be preventing the atmo from getting out.

Reviewing movies is a lot like Paleontology: The Evidence is there...but no one seems to agree upon it.
