Avengers Coming; 48 Year Old Nerding Out!

Oh boy oh boy oh boy. It just occurred to me how pumped I am about being ONE DAY AWAY FROM THE OPENING OF THE AVENGERS? I'm 'bout to "es-plode." Like a balloon full of happy . 

I mean, just look at that picture up there. I read a review that says the movie is just...like...that. It's an action ravioli, overstuffed to the popping point. Old characters, new characters, a romance for the HULK? Not just one city trashed, but something like five, on different continents? That it's like a James Bond  movie where everybody is James Bond, only in a cape? HOLY PANTS! And look up there in the corner, in the back. That's Vision, man. I don't wanna nerd out totally here, but for kids raised in the 1970's, Marvel was it. You don't know. And with all these movies coming out this summer, one after an another, it's that twelve year old's dream. All those comic boos scattered all over the rumpus room table, THEY'RE GONNA COME TO LIFE? And Vision, as well?

Next to Silver Surfer, this guy is, in my opinion,  the coolest Marvel character (though he's in the running with Iron Fist and Swamp Thing for baddest of the ass. ) (Also Doctor Strange.) (Who is also gonna get his own movie) (Omigawd.)  Vision: stoic, wise, big old red face, otherwordly and yet quite popular with the ladies. The best. AND HE'S IN THE NEW MOVIE? *Squeel.*

Yes I know there's apparently a lot more Hawkeye, who really does what, exactly? He's got some arrows and a gun. He's barely making it out of the poster up there. And that bland drip who helped ruined the Godzilla movie with his occasional "I'm From Brooklyn" accent and stupid useless face is in as Quicksliver, the same character who stole last year's X-Men, only not nearly as good. So...eeew.

Still, look how cool Vision is up there, hovering over the melee like Green Super Jesus. Even his cape is cool, flapping nonchalantly. I'm already loading up on the Raisenettes in my pants. 141 minutes with The Avengers and Joss Whedon putting snappy sarcastic words in their mouth? GIMMIE.

I will see you fifth row, center. I'll be wearing a cape and levitating a foot above my chair.

P.S: Something for the ladies? How about this:
