Giving "The Avengers" a second shot. I believe I made a mistake the 1st time around.

I went to the 2D version with a girl. I tried to not watch her reactions...but my peripheral vision is on a superhero level. She spent the whole movie giving me faces like...

:wtb: :what: :usure: :shaq: :wtf::snoop::childplease:

So I came out of there thinking that the movie was too slowly paced, the lines corny and forced, the costume choices cheesy, and the action scenes boring. I'm starting to think I was brainwashed...

So today I'm making it up for it. :lolbron: Bringing my nephew to see it in IMAX 3D. He's a crazy comic book superhero fan. Next best thing to going alone is to go with someone who will respect the material just as much as you will and will suspend belief for a few hours.

We'll see if my opinion changes.

How in the hell you gonna let your date formulate your opinion of a movie? I woulda threw some :usure: right back at her ass

Seen it twice now and i refused to go with anyone who didnt see at least some of the lead up movies. I get it that they introduced them all again but its like going to see the 3rd film of a trilogy without seeing the first two. I mean you gotta at least see iron man, thor and cap movies before avengers to appreciate it.

Imax 3D is the only way to see this movie. I hate going to moves with fakkits who aren't liking it or don't like any movie ever.

Damn...

1. We missed the IMAX show so I ended up having to watch it on a shytty regular digital 3D screen.

2. I was tired and fell asleep through most of it. My nephew kept offering me sour patch watermelon kids to stay awake. Didn't work.

The scenes that I did manage to catch were better this time around. But the cheesy lines still kept taking me out of the movie.

I know the The Dark Knight comparisons have been repeated ad nauseam now but it goes without saying that Christian Bale becomes Bruce Wayne and Batman. It's not Christian Bale up there. When I was watching The Avengers it was like watching Robert Downey Jr. and a few friends delivering ad libbed corny lines in costumes.

DARK KNIGHT RISES WILL BE GOAT.

The fukk is up with your girl? She must be one of those "older souls".


Females who don't follow comics always :krs: at superhero movies and ask tons of questions about who does what after the fact. It's tradition :yes:

Your girl sounds like a bore and how you gonna let someone else's reaction dictate how you feel about something?

Anyways, I saw it in 3d and my girl was :gladbron: the whole time even though she never messed with any other comic book movie before me. Half of it may have been her checking out Thor and Cap'n but :yeshrug:
