'The Avengers' affirms, 'There is only 1 God'

“The Avengers” is one of the few movies that actually exceeds its hype (did the marketers purposefully hide how good this film is to build word of mouth later?) and is not only one of the most entertaining films of 2012 thus far, but may be the most enjoyable summer blockbuster I’ve seen in years.

Thoroughly enjoyed this movie.

Affirmed both the Stars and Stripes and one true God.

Saw it yesterday with the family and friends. Thought it was great. Lots of action, lots of laughs.

Glad. My teen son and his friends went to see it last night.

Here’s the pertinent line from the article and the movie:

“There’s only one God, ma’am,” Captain America responds, “and I’m pretty sure he doesn’t dress like that.”

Awesome, I can’t wait to see it. I’ve been told it’s hilarious.

The wife and I went to see this last night. I hate most movies, because they are just so stupid- nobody acts like real people. There was some of that in this one, but little enough that I was able to put it aside and enjoy the movie.
I highly recommend this one!
And imho, the Hulk has the best line in the movie- without saying a word!

I saw it last night. It was showing in four of the 16 theaters in the complex. All four were sold out. Best movie of the 2012 so far.

I think I know what you’re referring to! The Hulk was the best thing in the movie, and the entire thing was great.

I loved most the part where The Hulk slams the bad guy L against the floor 3 or 4 times like a rag doll! What a way to treat a demi-god...

:-)

Free Republic version of the title and first sentence:

'The Avenger's' affirm's, 'There is only 1 God'

“The Avenger's” i's one of the few movie's that actually exceed's it's hype (did the marketer's purposefully hide how good thi's film i's to build word of mouth later?)

I have never seen lines at our brand new local multiplex since it opened here in Wasilla, Alaska until yesterday for the matinee of Avengers.

I decided to buy the first ticket for the 3D matinee instead as the 2D looked sold out, my son and I had the best seats though we had to wait an hour.

It was an unusually good movie, the Hulk did indeed steal the show, Black Widow was a little on the plump side but still hot hot hot.

And the special effects were awesome, its a Josh Whedon movie, same as Serenity.

But I will nitpick one idea, having an aircraft carrier floating in the sky was stupid stupid stupid, too vulnerable and everything should have been anchored to the deck, looked cruelly cool though but still a stupid idea.

Iron Man should have brought a reserve of his battle suits and Captain America needs Dragon Skin or some better body armor, he isn’t bulletproof.

Thor seemed unusually weaker or more human.

And Marvel should have had a prequel movie of Hulk, he stole the show but he isn’t like what we have seen in years past.

In summary its a grand flic worthy of admission and a patriotic one, stay until the credits pass for a teaser.

I may go see it after all. Recently I’ve been watching a lot the DC’s Justice League and JLU and maybe that has softened me a little.

Other than Atlas II, there was nothing on the movie radar for the year.

I think the Alien prequel, “Prometheus” will be another blockbuster.

The belated US release of “Battleship” may turn out to be a turkey, it was sent overseas first because of bad reviews.

But The Dark Knight should be the biggest film for the year.

200.3 MILLION dollars in its opening weekend (estimated)...blew the doors off previous record-holder 'Harry Potter' (last one) by $30 million.

Damn.

The Incredible Hulk

It was okay. Some of it was a bit over the top in the graphics.

The "Avengers" was great. My sons (10 and 7) loved it. They can't stop talking about it.
