The Avengers is my favorite film ever! God I love being a Marvel fan at the moment!

I watched this movie with my friends as soon as it came out. The only other Marvel film I hadn't seen was Captain America and I understood his story very well watching this movie.

I was looking forward to both TDKR and this for forever. The avengers is a great ACTION movie. Plot is really simple, characters show little individual development and all seemed completely untouchable. Great action scenes but at the same time they got boring because the characters were basically invincible in combat.

In my mind this was a great action movie, cool g

I watched Avengers before all of the others. I went back, saw it again, and then watched all of the others and Thor twice in three days

I hate how people loved the Avengers when it came out but now days people hate it, I loved it

[boredXsomethingXIDK]

The Avengers was such a huge thing to accomplish & definitely will go down as the greatest comic book movie of all time. unless the second was is even better..

Thanos is gonna fuck shit up!

Was I the only one who thought Loki was a ridiculous villain?

[kwloy]

No... Iron Man 3 was crap, and pretty much was a stab in the back to all Marvel Fans.

[kwloy]

Never... cause that's one of the dumber Ultimate plot lines xD
