I enjoyed Marvel's other films a lot but Avengers lands above them all. The one critique of a few of those films was the action. "Why didn't Iron Man and the Monger have a longer fight?" or "Thor vs The Destroyer should have lasted longer." No one is going to say anything like that with Avengers. Wave after wave of incredible action done superbly. The action beats are interwoven with each other perfectly. Following the epic Helicarrier stuff with that whole finale was like having incredible sex, sipping an energy drink and then going back to have even better sex. That's the cinematic version of total happiness and satisfaction.

Let's not get in to the Batman "debate" again because, frankly, that elevates that trilogy to a higher level by even mentioning it with Marvel's best. Things like Avengers are above such things.
I believe that it is because Marvel set up Avengers from the start and did so delivering some instant classics all on their own. Avengers then combined the greatness of what we've already seen but added a more epic film. Avengers IS be the greatest adventure film of all-time. No other franchise got individual solo films to develop a film's characters. They had the budget and the right guy in place and he made it all work. Most everyone is saying that Marvel's The Avengers redefines the word epic and that's why even the WB is rushing to copy them. -

The next Avengers will see the complete Tony Stark and I can't wait to see that. Nothing was easy about phase one and we all agree that the entire thing was masterfully crafted but phase two is already lining up as better.

Will Disney and thus Marvel be effected in the future from making films as great as this one?
Media industry ripples from Comcast-TWC merger
The media industry is busy evaluating the impact of a Comcast-Time Warner Cable merger even if the DOJ clips the size of the deal a bit.
A key word for content providers today is leverage. A larger Comcast (CMCSA), (broadband and Pay-TV) would give it additional clout in negotiating retransmission contracts with networks (CBS, FOXA, AMCX, DISCA, SNI) and studios (DIS, TWX, LGF, SNE, DWA, VIAB) for home video sales.
The relationship between streaming firms and Comcast could get more complicated. Though studios rake in money from Netflix, if Comcast ever decides to charge its massive base of broadband subscribers on a usage basis - both Netflix (NFLX) and Hulu are in harm's way.
Companies with future ambitions in the online TV area (think Sony) might see additional pressures from a larger Comcast. In theory, the media giant could launch a similar national service. -

Look at this ASM2 quote
Every time someone gets into spandex, the movie gets in trouble. The action sequences that typically let other Marvel movies to soar drag this one down to earth.
Please keep Garfield's Spidey away from the MCU. Why drag it down? -

You question us? You question HIM? He, who put the scepter in your hand, who gave you ancient knowledge and new purpose when you were cast out, defeated?
