I have not seen The Avengers. I have plans to see it next weekend (although there are apparently child-care issues to be resolved). I don't want to hear about it until then.
I hear it's wonderful, and it was only post-release that I heard that Joss Whedon was behind it. I don't even know who's in it. That's how out of touch I am.
Hopefully, it'll be good enough to wash that abomination with Sean Connery and Uma Thurman out of my mind. Did they get a good actress for Emma Peal?
(Seriously, my mind is reeling with the possibility of Avengers/Avengers crossover fan fiction. Perhaps opening with Steed and Peel getting sent to investigate a situation and on their way are passed by a flying Iron Man....)
Now the only question is, your place or mine? (^_^)
This week, at least, the 2D showing in Ithaca are 1:50, 3:40, 6:50, 8:40, and 10:00. I'm not sure which showing would be best for you.
Next weekend (including the 12th), the web says... it's not showing. The only movie listed for next week is Dark Shadows. I assume that's an incomplete listing.
