Finally finished listening, now that I've seen the movie (in 3D! yay). I, too, enjoyed it tremendously. Never saw Captain America or any of the Hulk movies, but I thought Mark Ruffalo's performance was pretty incredible. It's also hard to imagine that Chris Evans was once the poor man's Freddie Prinze, Jr. However, I'm surprised they resurrected the Black Widow, considering that she was murdered and dismembered in her movie.
I do disagree with John re: Agent Colson; that scene had me fighting back tears. His vintage cards got all ruined! Now they're worth, like, nothing! No, but really, while I didn't necessarily buy into the fact that it made such a huge impact on the heroes, his "sacrifice" definitely got me choked up.
