Story was very entertaining.

CGI was flawless.

Script was funny and very well done.

Action was crazy good.

Only The Dark Knight comes close and while its story is superb as well as the Joker's character was unmatched, however its action is not as good and the solid comedic lines in Avengers is pure gold.

Best $45 I've spent on my family all year so far.

As a 'superhero' movie, I'd agree with you, but as a 'movie' in general I'd still give it to Dark Knight.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I agree!

Nah. Avengers was ridiculously stupid. Impressed as I was by the CGI and how well they put everything together. Most of the jokes fell flat and the 3D was so bad I'm swearing off of it forever. I liked the movie, don't get me wrong. But the heroes show no sign of pain and there is nothing relatable about these characters as put together in this movie. Individually they are more interesting.

The Dark Knight is still king.

This might have something to do with it having a mash-up of many Super-Heros.

It was awesome indeed but it doesn't quite beat Spider-Man 2 for me.

I very much agree with your consensus.

Still, I just saw the movie for the second time tonight, and really enjoyed it. Great movie, it's just a great time at the theater. ^_^

The Avengers is a travesty of a film and doesn't do justice to it's concept. A waste of time, hype and hope.

We won't get another film like it in concept for years because of how crap it was and how it will be remembered (by people who actually know if they are watching a good film or now) as a pice of crap, relative to what it could have been.

It's throw-away popcorn tosh, exactly what it wasn't supposed to be.

Yes everyone seems happy with it, except the core fans, who it was supposedly aimed at. That rot will run through and even the brainless movie going general public will eventually scumb to the thoughts of the intellectual core fans.

It happened with Pro Evo, it happened with FIFA, it will happen with this cross-over genre.

It made a fortune and Marvel were still trying to save money by ousting Edward Norton as Hulk, and unwilling to pay proper money to top end actors, says it all really.
