Avengers marked my return to the MCU for the first time in the theatre since The Incredible Hulk. No way was I missing this. To paraphrase Elaine Benes “I watched a lot crap to get to this point”. Short story: loved it. I felt like a kid again. Whatever you may think of Phase One, when our heroes meet up, it felt earned. The groundwork had been laid and this was the payoff. Tony and Cap’s first meeting, Tony and Thor tussling amongst the trees. That tracking shot. All produced a euphoric high sitting in the theatre. It’s not a perfect film but it was one of the best film experiences. See you on the other side!
