I saw it on Friday... loved it. Great humor thrown in with the action scenes (one in particular still has me chuckling when I remember it!).

Oh yeah, great eye candy too.............

I love it when an action movie has humor thrown in. I'm looking forward to this!

When I read the thread title I thought "I wonder who played Steed?"

Oops. Wrong Avengers.

Loved it...the Hulk was my favorite. Why hasn't Mark Ruffalo been the Hulk all along? He was perfect as Bruce Banner!

Saw it, and it was good.

Though the movie was damn near ruined by the mother letting her two spawn talk constantly and loudly throughout the entire damn movie.

Not to mention the person who let their phone make noises for a good few minutes despite half the people in the theater yelling very audibly at them.

Seriously, do people have no movie theater etiquette these days?

The humor was awesome - very Whedonesque! Loved the movie.

I remember (a) clapping at the end (b) turning to the BF and saying, "this is what happens when a fanboy directs a movie....you get BRILLIANCE!" (c) being pleasantly surprised at how good it was (d) being particularly sad about one particular death, I am still hurt.

We didn't get the second post credit scene and I am sad. When people started leaving before the credits I thought.. "how many marvel movies have these guys seen?"

A solid 9/10.

Weirdly I haven't seen any ads for this like I have for Think Like a Man, What to Expect. I was very "meh" about it (not really into comics/superheros), then I realized that Joss Whedon is involved.....basically a guarantee that I will check it out. Plus it seems like it's getting good reviews.

I enjoyed it enough, but it seemed so long!

Screw the teaser... I liked the second extra they showed!

Excellent movie! I wasn't even peeved to have to wait in line for an hour and a half!

My BF is the UBER nerd boy about this movie. He's been watching the trailers for MONTHS now so his geekometer readings were off the charts that night. Luckily I was anticipating it as well so it was a fun night out for me too. We did it up in IMAX 3D which was awesome. We got to see the new Hobbit trailer too, which only makes me wait anxiously for December!

We're already anticipating the next one, though I'm sure many more viewings of this are in our future.

I loved how the continuity flowed from the prior movies. The characters seemed intact and Ruffalo was a marked improvement on the former Hulks (I'm an old school Hulk fan, I've loved it since the Farigno days as a kid).

I was also impressed Loki laid down such language, basically calling BlackWidow the C word! (in context) Though I'm fairly sure I was the only one who got it. My BF was like why did you gasp at that?!

I really liked it!

The only downside was the couple next to me. They snuck in a huge bag of loud wrappered food and ate constantly through the whole movie along with leaving their phones on and taking calls. They got thrown out halfway through, thank goodness. The floor was littered with their wrappers, too. Pigs.

I really want to see it! Mostly for the eye candy... But also because I've heard it's good!

I might "take" my little brother to see it. AKA, I'm going to drag him along so I have a reason to see it, because I don't like seeing movies by myself.

It's good even without the candy. I enjoyed the storyline.

Sadly, only The Hulk is shirtless in this flick.

I'm waiting for it to come on iTunes. I have loved Mark since Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. How is Scarlett in the movie?

Scarlett is suprisingly awesome. I didn't think I'd like her, but she was so good, especially in her scenes with the Hulk.
