F###ing.
Gravity.
The only people that movie should have legitimately thrilled are those who've never seen the (literally) hundreds of space films it borrows from. Zero originality in the story. Visuals are the only treat, but for people who know and love sci-fi, it gets stale, and fast.
And I don't care what people say anymore, I didn't like the Avengers. Had okay entertainment value upon first viewing, but such a stupid story, cheesy lines left right and center, a poor flimsy villain character that wasn't intimidating (and was already a villain prior to it!), generic and easily killed aliens, half the movie spent on a stupid ####ing invisible floating craft that ultimately fails anyways. Too many little hat tips to fanboys and not enough quality writing. More overrated than Avatar, because somehow many people actually loved it and weren't honest enough to see through to all the crap.
I have a feeling Cap 2 will follow in the same footsteps. They're promising it will be Marvel's best so far.. sure. CGI already looks bad in it, and the villain does not look menacing at all. But even IF it stinks, people will probably still fool themselves into thinking it was awesome anyways out of their love for the hero. But we'll see..
