Avengers!

Finally saw Avengers, and I have to say, it really built upon itself.  That is, the longer I watched the movie, the more I liked it -- even the parts I had seen before -- because the more of the shape of the thing was visible.  I liked the science geekery, and the manipulation, and Bruce Banner, just like everyone told me I would.  I was interested to see, though, that while all the things fandom has been squeeing about were present, that squee has been so focused and selective that I was expecting a movie in which those elements were much more prominent.  if that makes any sense.

Anyway, I liked it.  Not as much as I like the movies that lead up to it, but I like it quite a bit.

I feel strange saying that Thor may be my favorite superhero movie, but honestly it just might be.   Iron Man is the only real competition.  Liked Captain America wayyy more than I expected to, but not as much as Iron Man.   HATED Iron Man 2.

These are my thoughts.

Also cannot wait for the Black Widow movie.

More than slightly, less than very.

People will find it difficult to resist your propositions.
