How did a bunch of laser shooting alien space sharks do less damage to Manhattan than a few guys from Afghanistan?

Fair enough.
Still waiting to see it so no spoilers please, but do they have a villain who actually fights in person in this one, or is it just Loki bossing around a bunch of faceless robots while he sits in a chair and chews scenery?

I thought it was ok. Below Ironman, but above any of the other movies. Essentially, I want to be Robert Downey jr.

Tony Stark is gay. Robert Downey jr is where the action is.

I would be OK with being gay if it meant I got to be Tony Stark.
An incredibly silly/stupid movie, but one I enjoyed quite a bit nonetheless.
If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

Iron Man is Marvel's Batman, honestly I'm not sure if I'd rather be Bruce Wayne or Tony Stark...Bruce Wayne's a ninja, but Tony Stark is a physicist. Tough call.

Loki gets involved.
It was a damn fun movie.

Bruce Wayne is an idiot.

FACT: The Dark Knight was a much better movie than this.

Bruce Wayne wastes his money inefficiently fighting crime. Tony Stark gives us WORLD PEACE, ****er.

Even better.
Just to clarify, the Jews did 9/11.
Wow. What did the few guys from Afghanistan do in Manhattan? Serve some bad shawarma? Drive someone from JFK to the Park Plaza via Great Neck?
There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.
My parents did 9/11. September 11 was their anniversary date. They are not Jewish.

Technically they were from Saudi Arabia and Yemen.

Well, the wife and I will go see it just as soon as she gets a decent reservoir of pumped milk for the wee man. I was kinda puzzled to hear that the villain would be Loki again, because a lot of the fun of superhero movies is watching hero and villain throw cheesy lines at each other along with the missiles, lasers and chunks of masonry. That, and it's just easier to get into it when the villain has a face to punch--as in the (non-terrible) Hulk movie where he rips the cop car in half and repeatedly smashes Tim Roth's chops with the halves. That was just fun to watch. But Loki, apart from being more of a slinking schemer type, isn't really convincing as a physical combatant. The way he minces around with that cane, he always reminded me of Jim Carrey playing the Riddler. Anyway, I'll go see what Whedon did with him.

It was a very fun movie. Every so often, you'd forget it was a Whedon movie, but then a bit of unmistakable Whedonesque dialogue or theme would pop up. The new Dr. Banner was very good, and Loki gearing up for his big "Enough!" speech in front of the Hulk was pretty god damned funny.
Shawarma.

I didn't actually know it was a Whedon movie going in, but as soon as I saw him credited everything made sense.
I thought it was pretty average - disappointing really...
Now The Raid kicked all kinds of ass - not that you Yanks are ever likely to see it...
"History is a lie that has been honed like a weapon by people who have suppressed the truth. Centuries from now, your own history will also be suppressed."
I thought the movie delivered nicely.
Mark Ruffalo was a great choice as David Banner.
The little cliques and infighting within the good-guys side of things is perfect Whedon fodder.
Plus, Tony Stark has ditched his Audi and is now driving an Acura, which should make it easier for Asher to pick his new car.
