The Avengers is just, good. It's like a perfect execution at being a superhero team up movie. There are more cool moments in it than I'd remembered, but mostly my impression on rewatch is that it just nails what it was setting out to do.

i think one could plausibly call it a Vietnam War Episode in the same way that Annihilation was a Vietnam War Movie or Star Wars was a WW2 movie, in terms of drawing on tropes and themes associated with Vietnam War media?

A couple of thoughts about Loki: It's kind of a shame that Jonathan Majors' casting as Kang in the next Antman had already been announced.
