Following this logic, box office figures seem to suggest that many ANVGR patrons did not see any other movie ever
At least, that's the case if I understand your argument correctly. What the box office actually seems to suggest, however, is that many Avengers' patrons did not see the predecessor movies *in theaters*. Or didn't see the predessor movies more than once in theaters, as I have personally seen an unusually large number of people to do (although that is, of course, only anecdotal evidence.)
A collection of Avengers-related thoughts about the movies. May 07, 07:46
agreed on your point 3. Furthermore; 'why so serious' about this kiddiefare May 07, 07:53
You should probably go back and re-read points 1, 2, 4, and 5. :) {nm} May 07, 08:04
okay... tried again... head hurts... AAArgh... JMT Smash ! {nm} May 07, 08:50
The most important point was in the final line.{nm} May 07, 10:23
Luxurification? Infantalization? {nm} May 07, 08:28
I don't really agree with your points. May 07, 08:29
I believe Robert Downey Jr. sold some Avengers tickets. But isn't that a vivid exception? Edward Norton is a fine actor, but May 07, 08:47
RDOWN, in the same way JDEPP made the "Pirates..." franchise work, or HLEDG made BATM2 something very good into something... May 07, 09:31
I think your mixing some rotten apples in with your oranges. May 07, 09:58

What form of logic do you have in mind? Deductive, inductive, and even abductive appear to be out of the running.{nm} May 07, 11:20
The argument of it being Hackneyed is academic, and applies to everything. May 07, 11:34
The Audience is the correct answer. May 07, 12:17
The Audience is the only measuring stick you really have. May 07, 13:54
Don't worry. It's the blockbusters that pay the way for artistic films. May 07, 09:05
And if anyone fixates on artistic films, it's a guy named Bluto who lives at Delta House! {nm} May 07, 15:49
Relax. Not every film can be high-minded art like Caddyshack or Animal House. {nm} May 07, 09:32
Seems to me that you are like Judge Smails looking down on lowbrow entertainment like The Avengers. May 07, 10:37
Stripes, Caddyshack, and Animal House were great lowbrow entertainments, which is in some ways the best entertainment. {nm} May 07, 11:22
The gist of your argument (such that it is) when all is said and done comes to an internet meme. May 07, 11:47
