We still don't know who the enemy is (my money on Skrulls), I don't believe it's Loki I already ship Natasha/Loki Steve has a gun, all is right with the world Don't like how they just attached Hulk at the end - is he in the film for just 3 seconds?
It's not because it's predictable that I can't react with disbelief.
But really, what I expressed surprise at was that Hawkeye took priority. To be honest, I was thinking that about Black Widow as well. But explaining that would be more complicated, and also since I actually saw Iron Man 2 I had more advance warning that she'd be in there.
To be fair, unlike Hawkeye being shoehorned into one scene of Thor, I thought Natasha's role in IM2 was quite well done and a great nod to how she originally appeared in the books, only simplifying her role down to make her just an agent of SHIELD.

It's her role as the only female part of an iconic superhero team that I can't really conceive of as not being jarring.
