AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!

Such a good movie. The Hulk had some of the best scenes.

And for those who haven't seen it yet, plan to stay all the way through the credits - there are two easter egg scenes, not just one.

For those who have seen it (and saw the first easter egg scene in the credits): (Spoiler in white, highlight to see it)


Holy crap Thanos! I so did not see that coming, but I am now super excited for the second Avengers movie. Here's hoping the script stays as awesome as this one did. I never followed the Infinity Gauntlet storyline, but I am aware of it and the kind of power Thanos was throwing around. This promises to be really really excellent.

After the phenomenal success of this movie, I hope DC picks up the gauntlet (ha!) and tries to do something similar with the Justice League: separate movies with each of the main heroes leading up to the big showdown in a Justice League mashup. Even if people call copycat, it could be really great if the scripts and acting are well done. We all win!

And if Ryan Reynolds reprises his Green Lantern role, he could also do a cameo as Deadpool in the Avengers movie, making him a double-winner. As far as I know, he's the only Marvel/DC cross actor. Am I wrong?

Analysis: GO SEE THIS MOVIE TODAY. You should have seen it opening weekend, but you can keep your nerd card if you see it post-haste. Unless, of course, you are reading this a month or longer after release and you still haven't seen it, in which case, find the closest nerd and hand in your card. Be prepared to endure shame.


Current mood: Heroic!
