I totally saw them but didn't make the connection. I just thought, "Way to be DRAMATIC, Joss."
That's one spunky little girl you've raised. I'm gonna eat her.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Odin and his ravens: in the long shot when Thor and Loki are standing on the mountain, two ravens fly past. Odin keeping an eye on his boys.
Saw that, bounced a bit in my chair.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Saw and loved The Avengers. Although I would have liked some more character development for Hawkeye. And a little one-on-one between Captain America and Hawkeye would have been nice, if you know what I mean .
My favorite moment? Probably when Hulk and Thor got the power stance shot together -- and then Hulk sucker-punched Thor . Beautiful misdirection, and perfectly in character . Although it was nice to see a comic-book movie exhibit a sense of humor, just generally.

And Consuela, thanks for linking those vids. I heart Black Widow sooo much.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The creation of this movie was probably most pointedly made possible by the success of Iron Man, so I figured they had to keep going in that vein.

I wish they'd cast someone as Black Widow with better physicality, and also tightened up the continuity with the stuntwork. Why is ScarJo's the only stuntperson I explicitly noticed? Is the market that tight for female talent that it's harder to match her than *all* of the guys?
Part of me grumbles and thinks it's because BW's mettle is undervalued, but whatever. I shouldn't have noticed that. Again.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So apparently, Loki's use of the term "mewling quim" has offended some people. And also, "He's adopted" offended some people as well.
Then there is at least one person who thinks Captain America ‘tips’ Nick Fury because he’s black.
Spoilery. (Also, URL is spoilery for a phrase used in the film.)
