The Avengers

Just saw it.

My mind is now in tattered pieces lying in the movie theater.
 
Saw it with my dad a couple of hours ago. That has to be the best super-hero, no, best movie I've seen in general in a LONG time. After so many years, they've FINALLY done the Hulk pure justice in a live-action movie. I had some doubts about Mark Ruffalo, but now he is undoubtably my favorite movie incarnation of the Hulk. And Iron Man was just perfect. There was even the perfect balance of seriousness and humor, which is something that is VERY rare in comic book movies with perfect quality of both genres to add! Not to mention the character interaction scenes were just plain wonderful! The years I spent waiting for this was worth it entirely!

Some of my favorite scenes:

Didn't notice anything new, although the life-model decoy was a nice reference.

Wow, I thought I was the only one who even noticed that.
 
Okay, so you all KNOW that the Marvel series of movies is going to continue after this, right?

Especially after they teased Thanos during the credits

Iron Man 3 is going to be next year, and supposedly, so is Thor 2. Captain America 2's slated for release in 2014, and it's then we get another Marvel superhero getting his movie debut:

ANT-MAN!

That's right, one of the original members of the Avengers in the comics, and also the hero with the power to change size... More specifically, the size of an ant (though he can also grow to a giant's size)...

Um... Yeah, I know Marvel has plenty of fantastical superheroes out there, and while I'm sure plenty of them would make good movies, I'm not entirely sure how they can make this one work... I did a little bit of research (that is to say, I looked it up on Wikipedia and TV Tropes), and it seems Ant-Man is a title shared by at least three different people, though I'm pretty sure they're going to go with the original, Dr. Henry "Hank" Pym. In his first story, his wife is killed and he's accidentally shrunk down to size, befriends an ant, helps it defeat a rival tribe of ants, then he manages to get back to his lab and grow back to normal size. He also gets a sidekick, Janet van Dyne, who becomes "the Wasp", another original Avenger who looks like his dead wife.

I have to say, if they're really going to make a movie on this guy, it's definitely going to be the most out-there, ridiculous superhero movie they've ever pulled.
 
You know, I've never heard a group of people in a theater laugh so loud. Then again, I've never seen so many people in one theater. Even when I saw Deathly Hallows part 2 and The Hunger Games
