I'd see Avengers, but I still haven't seen Thor or Captain America yet... I mean how can I justify renting 'em when I have so many FREE movies to watch, y'know? But I'm mighty tempted to just skip ahead and see Avengers because why not.

EDIT: Oh, and as a note, Season 2 of Young Justice starts up tomorrow morning! Check the TRAILER: Lobo, Blue Beetle, Wonder Girl, Bumblebee, Adam Strange... gonna be good!

I heard Young Justice was really good. I'm planning to start watching it pretty soon. I loved Teen Titans (Aside from the annoying anime segments), and this looks similar but without the annoying anime segments!

Not at all like Teen Titans, sorry. It's more in line with Gargoyles and The Spectacular Spider-Man (Greg Weisman's prior series). Very serious, a lot of focus on the politics and overarching storyline and the psychologies of the characters.

I mean, the B-plot in one episode was just the Justice League sitting around discussing what new heroes they should admit! Like, ten minutes of that. Glorious.

Didn't watch Gargoyles or Spectacular Spider-Man. But my favorite Titans episodes were the whole Slade/Terra plotline, which was dead serious. So I'm liking the series comment!

As much as I want to see Avengers as soon as it opens, I've gotten to the point where I don't really like watching movies when the theater is packed. I'll most likely see it Monday afternoon after it opens when the theater is maybe 1/4 of the way full.

Man, I haven't been to a full theater in a long time, come to think of it. Last movie I saw in theaters was The Grey. Went with my best friend, and I think there was about 4 other people in the entire audience.
Awesome movie, though.

Yeah, I really liked the Grey too.

Cool, I love Young Justice I like the fact that it has an over-arching story line but the episodes give enough substance to be interesting also.

Heh, got your pm, Griff. I'm not worried.

Had a Classic Tournament today in Austin MN that was a lot of fun. However, it was not held at a gaming store so I didn't get my normal toy/gaming browsing/shopping in, so I headed to Toys R Us on the way home.

Was kind of looking for the new Avengers Movie Gravity feed but my only TRU didn't have it. Scored a nice Handful of Heros pack when a Gladiator Hulk caught my eye. Also had a Red Hulk figure that I will paint up for my C3G figure and a pretty nice Sabertooth figure. A Cyclopes, Magneto, & Spiderman round out the better figures in pack.

I then decided to hit up the local Target to see if they had the Avengers Gravity feed and hit pay dirt. It was located right up front by the baseball/magic cards section near the register. Ended up with a Loki, Heimdall, Agent Coulson, & Skull Infiltrator figure. Took a quick walk through the regular toy section too and a super sweet World War Hulk 3 3/4" action figure has hanging on the front row so I snatched it up too.

Use to do a lot of toy hunting but have not done much in quite a while now because it has been easier to just order what I want on line. So getting out in a B&M store and getting a nice score was nice. Here is a pic of my haul, it is not a very good/clear pic but you get the idea.

[johnny139]

Wow, you hit paydirt with that Loki - on eBay it sells for $30 minimum.

Not the Heimdall figure I am planning to use for my design but you'll definitely want to have a figure for him.
