I've been sort of bad about keeping up with the current releases on purpose (ugh Avengers vs. X-Men, how did people think you were a good idea) but that's no excuse not to read older issues. Especially since I usually like the Bronze Age comics better than many modern ones. >__>

Asdfghjkl I know that feel; I have a bazillion fics in mind I want to write but never get around to. And many of them are for my Bingo table, too. :c And then there is this comm's Big Bang challenge, which I may or may not still sign up for...

Clearly this was the only thing missing in The Avengers. If there had been meta I probably wouldn't have found some of the action sequences a bit too long and tedious. |Db But yeah, I think the best "deep" movies are those that actually rely on a story and a bit of action instead of having lots of characters moodily gazing into the mirror and having freaky dream sequences while expecting the audience to sit, nod and marvel at the genius of it all. I make do with the morning robe I wear staying up to 4 AM browsing the internet.

I rewatched the first season over Winter break with a friend who was visiting from abroad, might be time to do so again... It's just a really good series, and since it's pretty long rewatching only makes it easier to discern certain themes and developments that I don't think you'd necessarily catch if you watch the episodes as they air.

I was going to write a Steve/Tony fic set i AA!verse for the avengers_bang, but I had to drop out because of school. I've read two fics since with the same basic premise, but neither who does it much like I had envisioned, so I might still write it some day... I've also always wanted to write some meta posts on that series, but I'm never sure where to start. Which is probably the reason I don't write more meta texts overall.

Would you mind if I add you as a friend? I've quite enjoyed this conversation. :3
