Wheeeeeeeeee! (I saw the Avengers)

[lonespark]

On my birthday (observed). In IMAX 3D.

It was awesome and I got to fill out a survey to tell them so. I love surveys.

A few random thoughts (probably not spoiler-y):

Holy crap this cast is white. And male, too, especially when I realized that...

Jane Foster was not in this movie. Nor Darcy, but that one I guess is more defensible.

Like, seriously? Why is Jane Foster not working with someone, somewhere, on stuff related to space portals and bridges and stuff? WTF is the excuse for this?


Nick Fury: More Odinic than (movie) Odin.

And speaking of Norse Gods, I got kind of offended when they had Captain America tell me there's only one god. Sure, buddy, you're entitled to your opinion, but I don't think it has much place in this movie.

Also also, Hiddleston's Loki continues being so fucking beautiful it might be a crime. Less attractive, what with the crazy murder/enslavement plot, but so. damn. pretty.

I agree with this. The movie was fantastic, but once I was done squeeing my head off, I could easily see some MAJOR gender and race fails.

The "one god" bit make me laugh, though... because considering he works with a demi-god, that seems a bit rich.

I'll take Hiddleston's Loki any way possible. Even with the insane grin and everything. Just take me now, Loki!
