I didn't recognize Jeff Bridges at all. When I saw his name in the first bit of end credits I thought "He was in it? Who was he???" And was later surprised to find he was Obadiah. And I didn't recognize Stan Lee - but later when I read through IMDB's trivia I found out who he was and just laughed.

Heh, I did recognize Bridges when I saw him... I wanted to yell, "Who's the Big Lebowski now" in the movie theatre, somewhere near the end, but I controlled myself...

It's one of the better superhero movies around.

Maybe they overmilked the joke, but the first time that robot let rip with the fire extinguisher, I thought I was gonna die.

Downey's delivery totally made those scenes.

Ah, but did you spot Captain America's shield on Stark's workbench?

And you stayed for the post-credits bit, right?

No, and yes. :-)

As someone who reads the Ultimates version of Avengers (and I can totally explain that if you don't read that version) the end bit absolutely made my week.
Sadly I am a young whippersnapper and did not recognize the theme song at all, I did spot Stan though.

The end bit was the cool cherry on top of a cool cake with cool icing.

Glad you liked it too. A friend was Special Effects Supervisor, so we had to see it. luckily, I'd been hooked, since Iain showed me the trailer.

Downey makes it work.

And, oh, I love your icon. What does the sound of one raccon clapping sound like?
