SO firstly, I woke up on my own time. (plus point!) then slacked around till 10ish and made my way to NIDA to catch a bus to the Railway Sq. Met Silma, we walked all the way to Sydney Fish Market. The distance justified the good meal! seafood galore with fresh sashimi!! Yay! Then we walked it off by making our way to Darling Harbour, down to the bottom of the city and caught a bus to Bourke Street Bakery which sells positively the best chocolate cake ever! Flourless chocolate cake!!!!! Worth all the walking!
To top this all off, we caught another bus to Bondi to catch The Avengers!
This is where I go into my thoughts from the movie. Why I don't say "about" is because Im never in a good position to comment once ht ethnical aspects of the movie except to say, I liked it but I wouldn't wanna watch the whole movie again. Only the fighting bits were as usual, humorous, uplifting and triumphant.
BUT I don't wanna watch the front bit because normal storytelling required the movie to shows the problem/crisis in the story before the triumphant bit..obviously to make the triumph seem larger. It worked. Except that I couldn't stand the Avengers quarrelling like teenage delinquents.
Especially Iron Man and his huge ass hard cased ego.
In fact, my tendencies against such childishness is always to smack the person in the head. Likewise, I felt the need to smack Iron man in his unarmoured head. As my script analysis tutor would normally ask after we've read our scripts, " who is the who has the biggest journey" Id say..either Loki (the enemy who thought he'd win but obviously had to admit defeat) or Iron Man (Who was close to losing his ego and his life)
Im inclined to rate my preference of the individual Avengers (1 being the most fav) excluding Nick Fury cause he wasn't fighting much
1) The Hulk
2) Captain America
3) The Hawk
4) Black Widow
5) Thor
6) Iron Man
The irony is that both geniuses are at both ends of the spectrum. The Hulk in his normal human form, is as much genius as Iron Man. But while everyone is scared of The Hulk's rage, The human version of The Hulk actually has the most control over his anger and behaviour than Iron Man..whom shits ego every time he opens his mouth. Yes those are my words.
Out of all the Avengers, the Hulk was the one who had the most control over his emotions which is really ironic because the enemy was counting on him to explode and cause havoc. Which he eventually did but with the help of every other Avenger quarrelling with each other! hahahahaha
Captain America is obviously the All-American, has the All American look and obviously in my opinion, looked the best out of all. After all, it was a not so subtle way of propagandising American power and good American image hahahaha Yes I caught all that. Whats also ironic is that Captain America (apparently being frozen for years and revived in the future) was also one of the most level headed ones and obviously was made the commanding voice by the time the real fights occurred. Like a big brother to the bunch of Avenging monkeys :/ Shrugs
The Hawk was good for his shots. Akin to Legolas. And Legolas is exactly what Iron Man calls him at a point of time. he had good looks too.
Black Widow is just good to look at when she fights. :) She also literally knocked the senses back into the Hawk.
Thor... is a demi-god! lots power but not necessarily a smart one though. like a stereotypical college football player. Nuff said
Iron Man...a child genius. And will stay that way unless he grows up. Nuff said.
And just to give u a glimpse on how "moved" i was with the characters, I smacked my forehead a few times. like how I would with my students when they do stupid/silly things
Anyway, was taking the lift down and there were a bunch of children in there who had pressed every single button on the lift so that it stopped at every level! Trust me, I had the urge to use my pan like Thor!
I handed the pan to my friend for safekeeping before anyone got hurt.
While walking home, I bumped ion old man and his dog. Both of which Ive had the ill fate to meet before. This old man had previously shouted at me to go back to China. Of which I promptly (as i was moving further and further away) said, "okay" and proceeded on to listen to my indian music.
Anyway I bumped into him again and this time, I stayed out of his way but having he pan in my hand made me less scared and more confident in defending myself if shit hits the fan.
He apparently started circling away from me the moment we got closer to each other. I don't know if its meant to be an insult (i.e.: chinese are like dirty pests and disgusting to be a near to) or he realised what I had in my hands and how I could possibly use it to his disadvantage..but whatever it is, if he provoked me and got nearer, id have made him say hi to the base of my pan. And me being in a creative mood, imagined myself bringing the pan down on him like Thor with his hammer, then hurling the pan at him like Captain America with his shield and then retrieving it back like Thor with his hammer and magnetic hands.
Obviously all this humour would be better appreciated if you watch the movie.
Going back to the topic of Avengers, my favourite bits of it involve Hulk. Him Flipping Loki around like a fish, him throwing a 1 solid side punch at Thor when everyone least expected it (to make an obvious comedic point) and Hulk shouting in frustration at the seemingly dead Iron Man, only to wake him up like an alarm clock on steroids. Doesn't sound funny now but watch the movie and you'll get it.
Right! Im done with my lengthy post. Gonna sleep!
God Bless!
