My daughter and I went to see it today for the first time. We additionally watched Captain America last night for the first time as well. I pretty much hated the Captain America movie (although I did like the guy who played him) but I loved the Avengers. We're Capt America felt forced and too quick I thought the pacing of The Avengers was good. I loved Hulk and Stark/Ironman.

I get the complaints but have to be honest - we really enjoyed it.

The Directors Of CAPTAIN AMERICA 2 Are... (Yes, That's Plural)
Ain't It Cool News: The best in movie, TV, DVD, and comic book news.

It looks as if Marvel Studios has made its choice, and it's the Russo brothers, Anthony and Joe, who are best known for their film work helming YOU, ME & DUPREE and as the executive producers and directors of NBC's COMMUNITY.

The Hollywood Reporter says the Russos outlasted such competition for the gig as George Nolfi and F. Gary Gray, and it sounds like Joe Johnston was never in the discussion to return to the director's chair after his strong effort with the first film.

Hmmm... quite the interesting choice, but then again, when hasn't Marvel made some different choices when it comes to who's directing their films?

Forget all of this let's see an X-Men vs Avengers flick based on the recent comic arc that is going on now. You can have Joss Whedon and the guy who sucked at the Xen flicks do it and it will aim straight for the middle.

The film was a good summer film. Niff said with that. I had fun and thought it was worth the matinee admission I paid. I am a sucker for these films and lets me geek out a little bit.

Like the enthusiasm. And which guy who sucked? Singer with the first two or The Rat who was brought in last minute and(I think) did a decent job. But yeah, all the Xmen flicks suck hard. OOOfa Wolverine:Origins is Tron:Legacy bad. Maybe it's the : ????

Anyone else feel that if Christopher Nolan cured cancer that jd would bitch that it's not that great because he didn't cure AIDS too?

But Nolan would never cure Cancer...that would be a happy ending and the man could never wallow in the sense of self importance and the sadness/depression cancer brings. He would cure...I dunno...mono, just to superimpose cancer over it with a spinning top showing how random death dealing diseases are...

Don't you find it refreshing to have a director in Hollywood who doesn't always go for the happy ending?
