It is a truth universally acknowledged (um, in our house anyway), that I know little to nothing about comic book stuff and Joe knows, well, everything. We saw Thor last and I had some follow up questions regarding Thor, The Avengers, and the previews for X-Men: First Class. And I thought HEY! Maybe other people have the same questions! Or maybe they want to laugh at how little I know about comics. Win win win!
Anyway, read on and be educated:
1. The Cosmic Cube
Jennie: So, what was that thing at the end of the credits?
Joe: The Cosmic Cube. It’s basically a source of unlimited power, I’m not sure how it works, and the Red Skull is always after it.
2. Where my bitches at?
Jennie: I was expecting an Avengery person to be in Thor but I didn't remember that Jeremy Renner was an Avenger.
Joe: Yeah, I didn't want to tell you because I didn't want to spoil it.
Jennie: And he's...The Green Arrow?
Joe: No, Hawkeye. The Green Arrow is DC, Hawkeye is like Marvel's answer to The Green Arrow.
Jennie: Oh. I get all the Green people mixed up. Hornet, Lantern, Arrow, IT'S CONFUSING.
Joe: Haha.
Jennie: OK, so the Avengers are Captain America, Iron Man, Hulk, Hawkeye but not Hawkeye from MASH, Captain America...
Joe: You said Captain America already.
Jennie: Oh...um, who are the rest?
Joe: You forgot Thor.
Jennie: Ha, oh yeah, duh. Are there any girl Avengers?
Joe: Well, there's Black Widow.
Jennie: UGH. Scarlett Johanssen.
Joe: Yeah. There's also The Wasp and Scarlet Witch. Scarlet Witch is Magneto's daughter.
Jennie: But they don't get their own movies.
Joe: Well...probably not.
Jennie: THAT'S BULLSHIT.
Joe: I agree.
Jennie: So what you're telling me is that the most high profile female Avenger right now is played by Scarlett Johanssen. Who cannot act.
Joe: I know, it's unfortunate.
Jennie: But she looks really good in the outfit, so I suppose that's all that matters.
