the avengers

i love watching super hero movies.  they are very entertaining and most of the time (with the exception of the first hulk movie) the story lines are very well written.  


i have been looking forward to watching the avengers after i saw thor and captain america on dvd recently.  today, we went to intel's private screening of the avengers at the amc 20 in santa clara.  there was a pre-party before our movie played at 10 am.  there was an airbrush tattoo desk, a little corner to create your own super hero mask, draw your own comic strip, and a radio disney dj booth.  it was a nice event and very well attended.  the food wasn't free though, but we got to watch the movie for free so pwede na rin.  =)

the movie was great!  i really liked how they brought all the characters together.  we were a little hesitant to take michelle to the movie because we were not sure how she'd react to the fight scenes in the movie but since there was the pre-party that we thought she'd enjoy, we took her with us.  before the movie started, i told her that it was just a movie and it wasn't real...that the super heroes will be fighting with a lot of bad guys but the heroes will definitely win.  during the movie, she was a little scared in the beginning but later on she was watching and laughing at all the punchlines.  she said she really liked the movie and that it wasn't scary.  the avengers is approved by this 5 year old girl.


i must say, as much as i love the x-men, the avengers might be my favorite super hero movie.  i am already looking forward to the next one!


since we were in the south bay, we did not pass up the opportunity to eat at boiling crab again.   my dad liked it.  =D
