Anyone making a spoiler-free case for The Avengers? The poster has done its part, now I need the pitch.

Caoimhe, i have added a boost too. Would be interesting to see how it sits beside the other choices.

The Avengers is one I am weighing up. I would like to see this in the six with a few very different choices around it.

Oisin, i am following this thread for exactly that reason. Happy to hear a few different opinions.

For anyone considering The Avengers: This would be a good change of pace from the things currently at the top of my list.
