Saw The Avengers tonight with the lovely [livejournal.com profile] pushdragon, and we enjoyed it very much. The script was a thing of joy :-)

But I have a quibble, that isn't worth a spoiler cut because every American super/monster movie made since 1930 has had a fight scene in New York, so of course this one does, too.

And I do not believe that in this day and age, when New Yorkers see things exploding in the sky, their response would be to stand there and gape. Rick Rescorla had a bigger impact than that, oh film-makers!

This, and one other thing, and a few pacing issues aside – it's terrific!

Haven't seen the film yet, though kid said it was pretty cool, but I saw your title and wanted to ask, "Are you sure?" :D

Well, not most Americans in politics, obviously, or most of the Supreme Court, but I have my faith in the wo/man on the street!
