Avengers was everything I wanted it to be and then some. For the first time since Firefly/Serenity Joss didn't bore me with his issues, instead he told and directed an action packed, funny, well-characterized, and perfectly paced 2+ hour movie that I am ready to see again.



My favorite thing to come out of this is Tony and Bruce BFF for life. Don't get me wrong, I loved the end shot with Tony and Pepper but if they had ended it with Tony and Bruce driving off into the sunset together I would have been happy.

My absolute favorite part was when Hulk picked up Loki, smashed him around and said Puny God. Why can't we get a Hulk movie that amazing?

I hope they bring Coulson back. I hope he really is an android.


Now, fic me fandom! And can we concentrate way less on Tony/Steve and more on gen or any other pairing? Thanks!

Comics fans, any trades you would recommend? I'm particularly interested in Black Widow's back story or any Avengers run with this cast

The theater I go to is never packed, it was probably only half full. Which is its the one I go to! Did you stay all the way to the end? There were two additional scenes one mid credit and one post. All but 5 other people in the theater left and didn't see it.

The quips were great, really great. I've always loved Joss's quips, and even better he didn't over do them. I really want Christopher Nolan to watch this movie and understand that's how you film action sequences, the man has a lot to learn.

It was awesome. so awesome

We didn't stay because we saw the 8:50 show and had to get home to relieve our sitter. Someone on my flist posted the post shot, though. Haha, Joss.

He really didn't over-do the humor and he got in a few moments of poignancy, too. Of course, hearing someone with RDJ's timing quip Joss's lines made it even better for me. Capt America: Take away the suit, and what are you? Iron Man: Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist...

Hah!
