I have a new favorite movie.

It's called The Avengers.

Seriously. Tony Stark as filtered through Joss Whedon is just the best thing ever. If you love Joss, you will love this. It is 100% a Joss movie.


I'm so mad about them killing Coulson!! He was my favorite. I actually cried a little.

I must admit, there were certain parts of the movie where Chris' voice became Jensen's in my head and I got a little mad that Jensen wasn't Captain America. Cos he would have been amazing.

Like anything on this scale, it's a little nerve-wracking waiting to see how they're going to pull everyone together. But they did! And in a really good way, too. The two after credit scenes were fantastic. Especially the last one. Heh.

I'm gonna need to go see it again. It was that awesome.

As far as I knew there was previously no interest in another Hulk movie. However, Guillermo del Toro was said to be trying to develop a TV series, but it wouldn't be connected to the canon being established by the movies. I liked Norton's Bruce Banner, hated Eric Bana's, but thought Ruffalo's was wonderful. He finally seems an interesting character with more levels.

I might try to see Avengers again in a couple weeks, when the crowds die down, and do a cheap weekend matinee so I can catch some of the dialog I missed due to uproarious laughter from the audience. It's certainly worth multiple viewings.

I definitely want to go back and see it again. Not sure when or with who, yet, but I'll be going.
