Talking 'Avengers 2' With A Chitauri Warrior

As the doldrums (doldrums!) of August push ever onward, ever forward -- what are we in, the 70th day of this month now? -- it becomes more and more of a struggle to find something interesting to say about the movies.

Since I'm supposed to write about The Avengers 2 -- even though I have nothing to say about The Avengers 2 -- maybe this is a good time to check in with our old friend, Chitauri Warrior.

This morning, I was given orders to "write something about The Avengers."

Some people didn't like The Avengers. Alas, that's the way our planet works.
