Dept. of Do I Need A New Fandom?

So. The Avengers.

Tomorrow is my first day back from vacation, and I know the week is going to be a bear (not as much of a bear as it would have been, had certain folk at work gone above and beyond to make sure I get paid this Friday despite forgetting to put in my time card when I got back from Canada, which is another story). I plan to celebrate

The fact that she was palpably terrified of the Hulk rounded out her character,

Oh absolutely; I was also incredibly impressed with how Johansson played weariness and outright (and quite reasonable) fear when she got Cap to throw her onto the Chitauri vehicle. It made me respect her; any agent/superhero/good guy who isn't afraid of bad craziness like that is going to go off half-cocked and get themselves killed, and Agent Romanova (I insist on using the proper Russian last-name nomenclature) knows that perfectly well. It's why she's one hell of an agent-assassin.

I like your points about how Whedon and the production team brought the Hulk to the screen - and I like the way you made them. As always, you write with gorgeous, evocative phraseology, when you say things like a primal force of chaos, more terrible than the gods, and perfectly capable of pounding said gods against the floor until they get the point. and ...Also quite fond of the way the Hulk moved: gorilla-like and lightning fast despite his size

Glad to hear you're another member of the repeat-watch club!

I will not be writing Avengers fic. Repeat, I will not be writing Avengers fic. Nope. Probably not.

Aw, thanks! Seems we have a lot of the same reactions to the movie.
