I have taken the whole week off! (Although today is Bank Holiday, so I'd have had the day off anyway.) Talk to me if you want. I am probably taking next week off, I think. Fingers crossed.
Just finished the first Captain America and the two things I can say is:
1) The people who are saying you need to see it to appreciate Winter Soldier are probably right.
2) Peggy is such a pale shadow of who she is on her show that I want to sake her and yell at her to stop gawping like the movie love interest she's being written as and be awesome instead. Thank goodness her boy crush got his ass frozen and spared us any more of it.
SO TRUE! Although in the case of Mad Max: Fury Road, that's the point. I don't mind it on occasion when a movie does it very well (I love Kill Bill, personally). But most of the time I'm like 'oh, look, they're doing fighting again . . . '
Every time we come across it, I start off going 'Oh yes, this is quite fun' and then remember how they COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY BUTCHER NORSE MYTHOLOGY and then get very cross. I think of you every time Thor comes up ; ) Whereas I just get cross because it's dull as dishwater and Thor is the worst.
Yeah, tbh that sounds... pretty amazing. Smoother than a fresh jar of Skippy *g*

I'd read it.
