“The Avengers” is a rare movie that has a conservative message. The bad guy, Loki screams “Freedom is slavery,” politicians are made to look bad, and a businessman saves the day.

William Fox: I often delete comments from people just looking to plug their own content. In this case, though, I’m deferring to the camp/novelty value of leaving your comments and your link in place. Cheers.

Reading Mr. Fox’s comments leaves me wondering if i have landed on the wrong planet. Besides that, I was able to relax and take my kids to the Avengers -because- i read Mr. Graydanus’ positive review.I so completely loved it and thank him for the thumbs up.

Adauctus, guess guys like us can still get into action adventure and not be afraid to have a conversation about it with our kids! Evil is real , it’s in front of our face, and we need to confront it while we know it beckons us as well… but our sheild, our strength, our comfort, and our brilliance come from the one born in Bethlehem. The One Holy Catholic Apostolic Church is the ultimate ‘A team’! God bless.
