I gotta say, seeing Avengers a week after Hunger Games makes me wonder what Joss could have done with THAT franchise. Damn.
I haven't seen Avengers yet, but Cabin in the Woods gave me the same thought.

It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Frank, Enver was the cop on the left when Cap was giving orders to set a perimeter at 39th Street, etc .
My friend noticed Alexis' name in the credits. I'm generally aces with voices and such, but I had NO idea .

Well, there was voice FX, right, to make him sound like whatever creepy deathmongering thing he was, wasn't there?

Ha, nice.
Speaking of, can we talk about how awesome Black Widow was—well,in general, but also—in her first scene where she KICKED BACK FROM SOMEONE'S STOMACH ONTO THE FLOOR AND PROPELLED HERSELF BACK WITH HER HANDS?
