Went to see it twice. First time was brilliant, even though it was an experience marred by noisy moviegoers. Second was in 3D and with quieter people, making it a better experience. Watched it again over Christmas on DVD, and it still is one of the best movies I've seen this year.

Why doesn't Oscar voters take this in to consideration when thinking about best picture? When you leave the cinema absolutely smiling like you did with Avengers that should count for something.

Yeah, you won't see something like Raiders of the Lost Ark nominated for best picture anymore.
I still don't think Avengers should have been nominated, but it was one of the most enjoyable movies of 2012.
Think of the idiots you encounter daily, then realize they too have access to IMDB.

Yes, if in the past they could nominate films like "Star Wars", "Raiders Of The Lost Ark", and all 3 "LOTR" films, then they should've made room for "The Avengers" in this year's Best Picture nominees. What a waste not to recognize such a thoroughly and unbashedly entertaining movie like this. -

It was a lot of fun.
As much fun as Dredd or Django Unchained? No, but still fun.
Long live the new flesh.

What I meant was that those two phrases were what I was thinking either while I was watching the movies or immediately afterward.
During Avengers, what I was thinking was, "Wow, I can't believe he's pulling this off!"
Much more fun and original than the other films.
Not as much blood, though, which seems to be what those two films have in common.

Django - Way too long, way too self-important.
That is so true and add the fact that is was a tedious three hours at the cinema. Not many enjoyed the experience of Django.

The Lord of the Rings still rules, but this is up there.
The Avengers is a little better than The Matrix, because its absurdities are fun, while some of the stupid things in The Matrix are fun and good, but human beings as batteries kept purely for their electrical production is just stupid. -

I was older than 6 but Jurassic Park was a blast to watch at the cinema. Are you going to the 3D IMAX re-release of it this year?

The Lord of the Rings was good but hardly thrilling. It was epic but in a massive bulky way.

Both times I saw this the cinema was pretty empty (lunchtime opening day and then the following saturday), so it wasnt really as much of an experience as it sounds like some of you had.
For me, the first time I saw TDK wins by a mile. It was my first time seeing a feature film in 70mm IMAX, and it was just mesmerising.
You think Im not serious just because I carry a rabbit?
