Yes, I just saw the movie again. What?
Oh, I totally plan to see it this weekend, which will be my 5th time.
Here, have more of my money, Joss.

The books weren't that great, so I'd say no.
I'm sort of with Matt on Coulson. I was a little surprised at how popular he was in fandom because he...didn't really do much in the pre-Avengers movies at all. He was a connecting thread, but so was Nick Fury. Sure, he was a likable character, but he basically went around delivering messages to people. He is a little cooler in the Marvel shorts, though. I like him and all, but I do find the fandom love somewhat bewildering.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why did he pull a Figwit? Because he was surrounded by madness and the superhuman, and he just seemed to be totally chill and in control and neither impressed nor amused by the shenanigans going on around him.
Fury had to get emotional for his job, because it required leading and convincing. Coulson was just...chill and effective. I'm sure TV Tropes has a term for it--Laidback Human Badass or something also not catchy.

Did you see the DVD extras? Like the one on Thor?

I'm assuming those are the Marvel shorts. Or are there more?

Yes, those are the Marvel shorts I was referring to.

The plot is a little average, but the effects and the look of the movie are beautiful.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
That's probably why Fury felt the need to be a manipulative bastard with the bloody trading cards: to get an emotional hook in Rogers. Thor's hook was already there; this is his brother. Banner didn't go all in for Coulson's sake; it's not clear when he even found out Coulson was murdered. Rogers and probably Fury had written Banner out of the plan. Banner went all in because Tony believed in him. Ah, the Power of Friendship(tm).
Yes, this. Though Thor also interacted with him quite a bit in his own movie. "Son of Coul".
