So basically, you're shown to be wrong, and have no answer for it. Got it.
nah, you jsut have a poor grasp of context, so you interpret that as me being wrong? got it.
here, I'm tired of this:
I could have basically made my comment about any superhero Movie--I could have said, All I see is a bunch of X-Men being tossed around and breaking shit, with no one ever really dying or any real consequences...so why the fuck should I care about these people?
(the same, and far, far worse situation with these deplorable transformers flicks, or course.)
My
point (which isn't exclusively tied to the specifics--you seem to have a very limited understanding of concepts), is that there are
no stakes for the characters.
This is what makes any particularl film completely un-compelling. Look up "stakes," and spend as much time in film and story theory as I have and get back to me...
That being said, I never said anything about The Avengers not being fun and entertaining. I said the action is good--but it certainly isn't compelling. These guys are invulnerable. They always will be.
....what's the point? It's a fun jaunt for two hours, but nothing to remember when you're done. It certainly doesn't challenge you in any way. (not that it has to....but why should it be considered any worse or better than the next superhero flick that shoves invulnerable anti-humans in your face?)
