The Avengers is the first movie I have seen that has seen a totally packed second weekend like this. People were in line for tickets after the tickets were sold out. One person said they were hoping that some people would leave because they either could not find a seat or were sick. Hype and word of mouth pushed the movie to what it was second week. First week for that matter. I told everyone that it was one of the best movies I have ever seen, because of the experience. If my experience was great I do not care if there was a mediocre camera man, or if there was not enough metaphors or shadows, or color , or editing in the movie. If Epic Movie made me laugh the whole time along with the whole theater I would have said that was great as well. In fact I saw The Three Stooges the other day. It was a horrible movie, but the whole theater was laughing at something so it made it fun. Plus they did a good job for a Stooges movie, but it was just not my thing. Some guy was in the back laughing his ass off at every last scene! What I am saying is that The Avengers gave you that experience.
I hated The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship the first time I saw it. But since the whole theater clapped and loved it I decided to see it again. Now it is one of my top ten of all time.
I would give both TDK and The Avengers a 9.5/10. Although to be truth full if I was a reviewer I would have given The Avengers a 10/10.

I have seen pretty much every major blockbuster movie worth watching in the theatre since Jurassic Park.

I have never seen an audience as rambunctious, giddy, and engaged as they were during The Avengers. I couldn't hear large portions of dialogue because the audience was laughing, clapping, and cheering so loudly. And I didn't even see it opening day since I was out of town for the weekend. This was a Sunday night crowd who obviously weren't huge comic book fans.

That's a testament to just how enjoyable this movie is to watch.
