One of my favourite films of 2012 (if not my absolute favourite) and in the 8 months since its release I've watched it more times than is probably healthy for anyone. In fact, I am incredibly surprised that this is the first time I've watched it since the challenge began.
Although, this probably wasn't the best time to watch, I'd been back in London half an evening, 1am was fast approaching and I still had to unpack, repack and get some sleep before heading to Southampton at 8am. Of course, I didn't want to do anything but set up my snazzy new Blu Ray player (thanks Santa!) and the only way to test out my wiring skills would be to put a disc in the machine. Obviously.
There is no part of this film that I do not love. It combines all the things I adore; Joss Whedon, superheroes, handsome boys and action scenes that make sense. That doesn't mean I'm not still really annoyed about the whole blade removal debacle.
I find Avengers inherently enjoyable. Joss has written a script that combines pre-established characters and new faces without letting anyone fade into the background. There are lines that, no matter how many times I watch the movie, make me smile.
