It's...not been great. Action is well choreographed but it's not exactly subtle. We get it, America is S.H.I.E.L.D. and as such needs the big guns to destroy the terrorists, 2nd Amendment etc.


Yeah, I got the feeling it was that kind of movie. Stretching a point very thin there, I feel. He's not the greatest of the team. I'm a Tony Stark man.

Iron Man is definitely the most fleshed out and compelling of the whole team.

It's a shame Marvel Studios don't have the rights to Spiderman, that would be excellent. Problem is then, the person to sub out would be Captain America and that's never going to happen.

Sometimes I wonder how these people get employed. Even in my industry, the incompetence of sales account managers is unbelievable. It's flunking your way up the ladder.


the only thing they would accomplish would be to set fire to the panel, and shut down all power to the site.....

we had a sales manger, (when i worked for a equipment manufacturer) figured out our costs of sales were way to high (which was true). his solution get rid of all the salesmen. the company was bankrupt in 2 years. he btw, shares the name of a very dear friend of our lady galla.
