    In case the film is crap?

    Nah. This is the Facebook age innit? And you surely need to hit a few websites in response to the inevitable adverts.

    Way too long, IMHO.

    Saved only by the CGI and the fact that it didn't take itself too seriously; some nice comic moments by R.D.Jr.

    7/10 for me.

    I don't know why people bother going to cinemas nowadays.

    In order to recreate the experience from within the comfort of your own home, simply scatter popcorn liberally over your floor, turn off your lights but leave an annoyingly bright sidelight on to the left of the TV, start shouting on your mobile phone while walking over the popcorn, have an old neighbour walk in front of the TV droning "Ice cream, pigeons, wildebeest wings, badger droppings" and start deep tonguing your nearest canine on the furthest sofa from the TV.

    When travelling by air MF usually hides in the cargo compartment to save a few dollars.

    I've decided to watch the Avengers. Just bought a ticket which at $21 I thought was steep. A coke and popcorn another $12!!

    Just got into the actual screen. The chairs are freaking unreal. Each one is like a BA business class flight. A table, glass table. Waiter service for drinks and popcorn!! And a menu! A full menu including healthy stuff!

    Oh. And WIFi.

    Wow.

    I seen the remake/prequel of the thing last year in the states, could have done with it.

    Mind you I did buy a large drink which was basically a bucket with a straw, thought "this is coming back with me" so stuffed a couple of t shirts in it and stuck it in my case.

    Sounds ike a reason to avoid the cinema to me - too many disturbances already.

    I hope you enjoyed the film?
