Amazing cameos in “The Avengers”
Okay, so maybe they don’t count as “cameos,” but I was stoked to see Ashley “Chrissy Seaver” Johnson as Waitress and James “Jim Walsh” Eckhouse as Senator Boynton in The Avengers, which I finally saw today. (Sigh, how the mighty have fallen.) Kudos for still getting work!
Other observations:
- How on earth did Mark Ruffalo and Chris Hemsworth get billing over Scarlett Johansson?
- I could not believe that Cobie Smulders had such a huge role in this. This is huge!
- Please somebody explain to me how Chris Evans can be both the Human Torch AND Captain America in the Marvel world…
- I could not believe that Loki (Tom Hiddleston) was F. Scott Fitzgerald in Midnight in Paris. Didn’t realize he was English!
Very entertaining film. I highly enjoyed Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner, RDJ was obviously fantastic, Gwyneth Paltrow’s bare legs seemed oddly out of place, and I appreciated the schawarma reference. Good job, Joss Whedon. Already excited for the sequel.
