I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Good for him!

Really, is there a better place for a 15 y.o. boy to find girls to kiss than at a Quinceanera?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Going to see Avengers again in an hour.

I didn't see the The Incredible Hulk. Which actor played Banner, and why did they get a different guy for Avengers? I like Buffalo. Not sure I want to see a different Bruce Banner now.

Edward Norton. And he had another commitment. But I think he talked Ruffalo into taking the part.

Our wings are not tired.

Go, Emmett!

Bobby went to pick up our Avengers tickets since for some reason I couldn't get them on-line which is my usual method. Assigned seats! A first for me. Granted I rarely go to the movies anymore because I prefer to wait and watch at home with all the amenities.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Not having been a 15 yo boy, I'm not sure, but that is def. a target rich environment!

Not sure I want to see a different Bruce Banner now.

Edward Norton was really good (unsurprisingly).

Thrive to spite them

I'm glad Norton couldn't do it, I don't like him. I didn't really know who Ruffalo was, but I just added a bunch stuff he'd been in on Netflix/

Not sure I want to see a different Bruce Banner now.

Yeah, I didn't see the Hulk movie, and I don't really feel inclined to now, because Ruffalo just nailed it.

Wow, reading my news headlines shows Avengers crossing over $1 Billion in 19 days time.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, I kind of want to watch the other two movies to compare, but...like you said, Ruffalo nailed it.

Or as this reads to me, "Joss has serious Hollywood leverage now."
