I finally got round to seeing the culmination of the Marvel universe movies; and in 2D too (yes, I much prefer 2D)!
As to be expected from superhero movies, reality needs to be left at the door. And so is logical reasoning, even taking account of the assumptions made in the movie seem to be thrown out.
That said, The Avengers script is a lot less nonsensical, and does manage to tie the various other superhero movies together quite nicely. The first two thirds is fairly mundane; but as the main battle begins, so does the very impressive action sequences and very slick story telling. It didn't really need the mundane bits to help it stick; so hopefully future renditions just skip that lot.

Unfortunately for the comic fan like myself the mundane bits are really needed. Frankly as far as big budget action movies like this goes at least it's highly entertaining with the slight off-beat humour that is that hall-mark of Joss Wheadon.
