I've been wanting to do a mini Thor Marathon for quite some time and having watched Thor yesterday, that brings me to The Avengers. Now when I originally watched Thor and then Avengers on DVD, the time in between was huge. Even though it was a "loose sequel" to Thor, it never played like one. But with Thor fresh in my memory and watching Avengers today, it definitely played much better. Kind of an odd thing to say about this movie given the fact that I already rated it 5 Stars. But I actually liked watching this one even more the second time around. Seriously man, Hulk makes this movie what it is. I DEMAND that he get another shot at a stand alone movie. They finally got it right and the demand is out there to make it happen.

A couple of things that I don't think I ever caught the first time around was the Point Break joke, which I thought was hilarious. One thing that I do remember was Nick Fury's Galaga joke. What I didn't catch was the button on the scene when the Agent goes back to playing said game on the monitor. I must have looked away for a split second because I don't remember that scene at all. Very funny. Still amazed that the studio was able to pull this movie off without a hitch given the amount of star wattage here. That's a lot of egos that want top billing. But they all played great together in the same sandbox. Hope Avengers II is more of the same times 100.
