    Just saw it. Amaaaaazing movie. I haven't been this entertained in a theatre in years. I also saw it in D-Box seats. This would be the first time ever I would consider watching a movie a 2nd time in theatres. It was that good.

    They should make an exception and allow this movie to be in theaters for at least 6 months. None of that dollar cinema either.

    Awesome movie!

    They could add another hour of mindless battles and I would still watch it.

    No one cares about Hawkeye. Hell, nobody would care about Black Widow if she didn't look sexy.

    Hawkeye = just another guy aka police officer

    If you're not a SUPERhero , give all the screen time to the HULK.

    What? I love Hawkeye. Awesome character.

    Black Widow? Yeah, she should just get naked. Otherwise, she could GTFO.

    I also really like Hawkeye and don't like the way they had him in the movie. I guess Whedon's thoughts were the character was originally a villain, so this is one way of portraying that. He definitely should have been in more, however.

    I thought hawkeye was pretty awesome

    I was really skeptical of Scarlett as the widow but I did think she did ok. I still would have rather seen mila jovovich or Kate beckinsale

    Its that being adopted doesn't matter. The joke was used to rationalize something negative about the brother. Would it be different if Loki was his biological brother?

    Like I said, not really a big deal, I do think they went overboard in demanding an apology.

    Can we have Underworld Kate Beckinsale and Scarlett Johansson Black Widow together on screen?

    Yes, please.

    ROFL? Is this you? This is my neighborhood in Houston. They showed the dollar theatre off Westheimer and Synott (highway 6 area).

    The joke wasn't about Loki being adopted, it was about explaining how two guys who have the same DNA could be opposite ends of the good/evil spectrum. The answer was that they were not of the same DNA.

    Before I go through 40 pages looking for this, has anyone posted a video to the post credit scene?

    I don't get the outrage over the joke. As others have said, Thor was just backpedaling and reminding everyone that Loki's behavior didn't run in their family, because they're not of the same blood.

    My problem with what he said is that I watched him and his buddies kill probably that many Frost Giants in like five minutes in Thor. So he can teleport to his brother's home planet and start smashing people with an electric hammer, but when his brother starts stabbing people on Earth, it's a huge deal because he met a hot scientist in the last movie and he hasn't had a chance to tap that yet.

    Come on, Thor.

    I knew it was in Houston! I'm trying to figure out who the guy is, I feel like I've met him before.

    That was the point of the first Thor movie, to show how Thor grew as a person. During Avengers he even talks about how he used to lust for war but not anymore.
