I did notice that whenever Avengers 2 had an opportunity to make a smarmy or inane liberal point, it went for an explosion, beam shooting, punching, or Whedon banter instead. This made it a far better movie that it could have been if simply made on liberal autopilot.
Also, feel free to add Jeremy Renner to the short list of gays who take the right attitude to homosexuality-spend most of their screen time in the movie talking about the importance of family and other human connections as the only way any super-powered individuals can avoid going insane (i.e., exactly the opposite of the X-men ethos, and I'm very happy to see Disney take great pains to hermetically seal off that legacy in this movie, going far above and beyond any legal justifications to do so.)

He claims he wanted to focus on 'other things' but, at this point, it is obviously just a PR move on his part to try and save face.

Even at that it is normal for men to want to start families, so it's not even getting women to behave like men.Tags: None
