Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
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.
Especially since they're fine with Iron Man speaking through an unmoving mouth slot when they're not showing RDJ's face. And there weren't any moving parts visible, so it looked like that bad CGI where they make pets talk.
There were enough questionable choices in this film that I think Joss should take a couple years off before doing anything else.

Just me, or was anybody else thinking that between Dr Cho's technology and the Tahiti protocol, that Pietro would be back ? Not very Jossian of me, I know. But I'm still only half convinced.

Totally agree!
About the whitefont discussion, this article has some insight. It's worth a read, as Joss is pretty upfront about his frustrations with the studio.
Huh, so Marvel wanted to axe the dreams. I thought the dreams kind of slowed things down.
I liked the dreams, they were actual character development, rather than just smashing things.
Truth time: The movie has been out for 5 days, and I'm already weary of people bitching about how much it sucked, and the people who loved it being all defensive and passive aggressive. Not that I'm against people expressing their opinions or anything! And I haven't even read that many reaction posts. At least things on B.org seem calm and civil. Tumblr right now is being an unbearable echo chamber clusters of various camps yelling about how their opinions are the only valid ones and everyone else can go suck an egg.
I worked all weekend and got woken up several times at night for work-related reasons on both Saturday and Sunday, so I'm sleep deprived and seriously cranky, which is probably not helping.
As a palette cleanser, I offer you this hilarious write-up from a dude over at AV Club, who voluntarily sat through the 28 hr MCU marathon leading to AoU. It made me laugh like a hyena: [link]
