thanks for that. I didn't stay till the very end.

Thanks be to Joss.

And Mark Ruffalo (and the other guy) for stealing the whole show.

I know! I watched it several times on the sly today at work on my phone.

It has the potential to be really awful, just because there's SO MUCH going on, but I'm a crazy Whedonite so I have faith!

Saw it today and loved it. Definitely brought the Joss Whedon magic. (Side note, though: everyone in the theater was SO. FUCKING. OBNOXIOUS. I haven't actually been in a theater in a while...is it now common practice for people to go to movies but act as if they are sitting in their own living room? Everyone talked through the whole thing, and any remotely humorous moment no matter how small was met with braying choruses of donkey laughter and comments like, "I'm gonna Facebook that later!" It made me want to ragequit humanity).

just saw it. It was fucking awesome. What a great move to have all the expository scenes interlaced with humor. It was just so much fun the whole way through. I will most likely be seeing it again on Wednesday since it's my day off. Anyone see it in 3D? Would it be worth it?

Am I the only person who HATES 3D? We saw it in 3D only out of obligation - it's a lovely cinema and part of a small chain, but I'd rather 2D IMAX (which is apparently imaginary nowadays). I find in big action scenes, it's impossible to enjoy anything on the perphiary of the main action because it's blurred, and it makes everything darker. Grr!!

So I suppose it depends if you get on with 3D or not!

I think 3D is overrated, so we went and saw it in 2D and it was fantastic.

[Fksxneng]

Saw it in 2D. Wearing glasses over glasses is flat annoying and 3D doesn't really add to the storytelling does it? No it doesn't. If the writing sucks, the special effects aren't going to make the writing better.

I really liked the movie although Thor needed to be shirtless at least once and it would have been perfect. Dude, you've traveled across vast swaths of time and space. Wouldn't a shower have been nice? Pamper yourself and my eyes a little.

[Seisyvose]

This is why I ask. If the 3D doesn't really add anything to it then I'll just see it in normal format again. The only kind of 3D that seems to bother me is the kind they add in after the film has been made. That always gives me a headache. In general, 3D really only works for certain kinds of movies, mainly animation, otherwise it is pretty overrated. It was definitely fantastic for Coraline though!

[AlabamaBoyz]

Chalk, my mistake. You are right!

^That clip doesn't do it justice though


oh! So, here's hoping this theory about Agent Coulson is true:

Agent Phil Coulson of SHIELD is secretly the Vision. I’ll tell you why.

- The movies have already established that both Synthezoids (Captain America) and Life Model Decoys (Avengers, Iron Man 2 [Stark Expo]) exist. Fully passable androids are already around.
- Coulson has never exhibited emotion, not once. He remains cool calm and collected in the most insane situations. Even after being stabbed through the chest by Loki he barely bats an eyelash and advises Fury to use his death to motivate the team.
- Coulson was somehow able to get through Stark Tower’s security systems basically unchallenged
- When talking about Coulson after his “death” Fury says he “lost his one good eye”, a clear reference to Coulson’s codename Vision. Coulson has acted as Fury’s eyes in the field in every single aspect of the Avenger’s Initiative
- The one subject he expresses any real enthusiasm in is Captain America, a contemporary of Jim Hammond, the original Synthezoid on which the Vision was based.
- And most importantly, if this is true then Phil Coulson is alive.

"What If The Male Avengers Posed Like The Female One?"

They have a point.

Oops! Double post.

Weeeeeeell:



Too bad Tony Stark is such an attention whore that the Hulk can't show all of his assets.
