Avengers mini review (take 2)

(Lets try this again. Curse you lj cuts! Sorry about that guys.)

Just got home from the press screening for the Avengers and I am full of feelings. So many feelings I need to share them with other people. I can't go into detail, but I can give you guys an idea of what to expect from the film without giving away any plot points.




First off, I saw it in 3-D, which was okay. Mostly it just made me squint and blurred some things, but it did make Chris Evans' ass look amazing. That thing practically bounced off the screen and into my face. But to me that doesn't really make up for over two hours of squinting.

Second, these are some of the thoughts I had in relation to the fans:

Tony fans: As expected, Tony has the best lines in the movie. In addition to Stark Tower and all of its bling, we get to see the newest suit, the mark 7, which is sorely needed by that point because damn Tony is rough on those suits. 

Steve fans: Somewhere between 616 Steve and Ultimates Steve. Sweet as apple pie, tough as nails, and a bit of a boy scout with a stick up his butt.

Steve/Tony fans: There is a lot of friction between these two. Wasn't sure whether they were going to fight or fuck, they were right in each other's faces. Tony does at one point call Steve a Capsicle.

Tony/Pepper fans: These two don't get much time together, but their scenes are great. Tony is looking to get some and Pepper has little denim booty shorts (fan service ahoy!).

Loki fans: There is so much material to work with here. Lots of Loki scenes, which makes sense since he is the Big Bad. Can't say too much without giving anything away, but prepare to squee.

Thor: We always see scenes in fanfiction where people make earth references Thor doesn't get. Thor makes an Asgardian reference that no one gets, LOL.

Thor/Loki fans: Wonderful scenes with these two. Much family angst and later some Loki bondage with a nod towards the myths (you will know it when you see it). I foresee much kinky Loki fanfiction soon.

Thor/Jane fans: Not much to go on here. Thor seems more worried about Loki (which is good for us slash fans, mwuahaha).

Clint fans: Don't be fooled by how little they have shown him in previews, it's because any more would have spoiled the movie. Very bad ass.

Natasha Fans: Very tricky secret agent spy stuff here.

Clint/Natasha fans: Lots of intimacy between these two and hints of their backstory.

Bruce fans: Rejoice, for the Hulk has finally been done right. Hulk has some of the best fights scenes in the film.

Tony/Bruce fans: If you weren't a fan of this pairing before, you will be. They are science buddies, it's adorable. I predict a spike in this pairing's popularity.

Coulson fans: You will flip flop between laughing and sobbing so much the people next to you in the theater will think you are bipolar.

Nick Fury fans: Damn. Just...damn. You're never quite sure if he's a good guy or bad guy, but he is always badass doing it.

Lastly, be sure to watch the credits for a hint of the next movie's big villain.

Bruce and Tony had a great dynamic. They seem like they should never be left unsupervised in the lab together, because they will make a nuclear powered microwave big enough to make a 2 tons of popcorn at a time.
