At the risk of coming across as a complete bitch, have you considered that perhaps you're the problem? Not exactly the same situation, but one of my best friends once heavily implied that I talked too much about my novel (we're both writers and many of our mutual friends are as well) and that it was kind of annoying. At the time I was *very* offended, for a few reasons that I won't elaborate on, but after a while I realized that she was right. I did talk an awful lot about my novel/characters, and although it was just because I was really obsessed with it, I can see how my friend found it annoying. Putting myself in her shoes, I would have been annoyed too. It was pretty much all I talked about. And that was in a group full of writers, where talking about our projects is the norm! It's even more annoying when the person's talking about something you have ABSOLUTELY NO interest in. I've been in your friend's shoes, too, and as well-meaning as you are, having someone you used to have good conversations with start talking to you NONSTOP about something you have little to no interest in is really. Fucking. Annoying. Like, I wouldn't ditch someone as a friend over it, so I agree your friend would be overreacting if she stopped talking to you altogether. But, all this to say, I strongly recommend you have a straight-up conversation with her about why she's upset, and this may very well be exactly the problem. I understand that you're excited about Avengers and you need to talk about it - believe me, I totally get it! But that's your problem, not your friend's problem. Out of respect for her, you should talk about things that interest BOTH of you when you're with her, and just talk about Avengers when you're with your other friends.
