Hello, Tailor! may be my new favorite blog.
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. 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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Except she's wrong about ankle length leather coats.

I can see her point. Imagine David Hasselhof wearing one of those things as Nick Fury.

David Hasselhoff wishes he had enough traction in my brain to erase Spike, not to mention my own two coats.

You fall into the "cool enough to pull it off" category. Spike hasn't in a very long time.

ita_!, much like how you're the only person I give a pass to for dressing up like The Crow (in fact, I encourage that, and want photos, dammit), you are also one of the only people I consider "cool enough" to pull off the long leather coat look. And trust me, I've seen many, many Goths try.
(The take-away here, in case anyone was wondering, is that ita_! is COOL.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I hope there is a blooper reel for the Avengers, and I hope it contains a shot of Loki getting that staff caught in his giant horns. This is based on a throwaway comment by Hiddleston that may or may not reflect anything that actually happened.

One thing I noticed in the theatre is that Bruce doesn't wear a belt. I was mystified at first, but wow, it makes sense. Maybe. A bit of logic that he'd not bother with a belt when he might be ripping it off later. But then they didn't bother explaining the magical expanding pants that only disappear when he's normal sized, when it makes the least sense for clothes to disappear. He should be lying in rubble in overstretched pants.
Still, the lack of belt tickles me and seems right.
I also absolutely loved Natasha's absolute fear of the Hulk, when Bruce "tests" her and she pulls the gun on him. Not only a cool shot, but just the reality of this is a scary dude, and Nat doesn't take that for granted.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I found the fact that she was pointing the gun directly at the camera incredibly distracting and awkward, especially in 3D but also in 2D.

Juliebird, I got a big kick out of Banner's magical stretchy/disappearing pants. Also out of the way his upper body grew so much larger than his lower body did.
