Notes: Yes, a very popular song which despite repeated vidding I still love. All I could think of was Tony and Pepper when I first heard this, so why not - this vid is selfishly motivated. I love these two together, it is probably my favourite het pairing in the MCU. Temptation not to fill it with lots of showy, shiny Iron Man action and keep the focus on them, I think I didn't do too bad.

Oh lord, The Incredible Hulk is awful and the only reason I watched it once is because it's part of the MCU. Tony's cameo is good but the rest is pretty terrible. I'll be giving it another watch though because I just bought it on blu-ray (it was only $8 and the completist in me wanted to own all of the MCU movies), but I just barely made it through the first time, so who knows.

I've always mostly watched Joss' stuff as well, Firefly's the only show I didn't bother with (but I saw Serenity at the movies with a friend), so when I heard he was doing it I just knew I had to check it out. Ended up totally loving TA (of course) and then going back and watching the rest of them. WS got me really obsessed though, I saw it five times at the movies (equalling my record with The Avengers), I just can't get enough of it.

With superhero movies I tend to stick with the big ones; MCU, Batman, Superman. I watched the original Spiderman trilogy but haven't bothered with the new one, I just cbf. I gave up on X-Men after the first Wolverine movie because it was absolute shit and I heard First Class treated the non-white male characters crappily, so I also cbf with that series now. I know the MCU isn't exactly a bastion of diversity, but I was never able to connect as much to X-Men because there's just so many of them, and only a few get much focus, so I'll pass. I heard DOFP was amazing but I'll download it, I don't feel like giving money to a movie directed by the grossness that is Singer.

Yay for a Natasha vid, she's my favourite character. I'll have to keep an eye out for that vid once you make it. ;)

New Spiderman was extremely boring. I can see why some like the focus on relationship between Peter and err... Emma Stone (can't remember the character name ). I won't bother with others. Unfortunately I was pretty bored by the new Batman and Superman. Henry Cavill looked the part but I didn't think they brought anything new to the party. Days of Future past was the first Xmen film I saw at the cinema - the others I've only ever seen on the TV and I never know who's who so don't care that much.

I only managed to see Winter Soldier once at the cinema due to real life etc. But I must confess it was outstanding. MCU don't seem to be afraid to upset the apple cart and they really did with that one. It's on preorder so I will watch many times once I get my hands on it.

I'm hoping that there will be more Natasha in Avengers 2 - I really wish they'd let Joss do the Black Widow film because that would be all kinds of awesome and we may get to see what happened in Budapest.

Oops, late reply.

I'm personally over seeing women get fridged in movies, so I knew Gwen's death was coming and figured why bother watching it when I know it's going to happen, and it's only going to piss me off. That and I heard the first one wasn't that great, and I had TA to keep me occupied at the time. I love TDK but TDKR totally falls apart on closer inspection, so I haven't bothered to watch that again. I did *like* MoS, but I didn't love it, and tbh I don't hold high hopes for BvS in the slightest.

WS was weird for me, because I only kinda liked it the first time I saw it. It was so intense and even though I love Bucky now, when he was trying to kill everyone I was thinking in my head "Will someone please take this dude out, omg" because he just kept coming after my faves. XD The other viewings I knew what would happen so I was able to enjoy it a lot more, but yeah, the first time I wasn't quite sure how I felt about it. I buy all MCU movies, but for this one I'm hoping they have a Bucky cover for the blu-ray, like they had for Loki with TDW because I'll buy that one no matter what it costs.

I'm kinda worried about Natasha's screentime in TA2 with SJ's pregnancy. I know Joss has said nothing will be changed and she'll still play a big part, but I'll believe it when I see it. Fingers crossed her role is awesome and not diminished because of SJ's pregnancy.
