The Avengers

The Avengers: Not as good the second time around (but still awesome)!

This could potentially be attributed to the positive aspects and setting of the first viewing--in the theater, at an appropriate time of night, and surrounded by my family and obvious Whedon fans (they were the people who laughed in all of the appropriate places, then continued to giggle from the pure elation of experiencing Whedon's first stab at big-budget film directing [at least since Serenity back in 2005]).

This time, I: watched the movie alone (and was therefore the only Whedon fan in the vicinity), started at 12:30am (oops), couldn't marvel at enough of the surprises from the first viewing, and had way too many external distractions.

That cast, though. Witty, intelligent, talented, and gorgeous, down to the last member (looking at you, grown-up Chrissy from Growing Pains).
