Not an avengers fan, but I admit I was pretty annoyed with all the movie-verse X-Men fans who suddenly claimed they LOVED X-Men and were huge fans and blah blah blah when they didn't know a damn thing about any of the characters. Fandom has evolved since then and now people are pretty good about clarifying movie-verse vs comics-verse, which calms the irrational rage reaction. I've got no problem if you admit you're a movie-verse fan, what bugs me is when people claim to be a (for example) Wolverine mega fan and in lurrrrve with him yet know absolutely nothing but what happened in the movies.
