Tonight we went to see Thor: The Dark World.
Just to start out…”Shirtless Thor Alert”, [I almost said ‘for the ladies’, but that wouldn’t be fair to any guys who that would target] there it’s out of the way, just in case a few of you needed a little push in the ‘seeing it’ direction.
The movie was epic, as expected, 90 percent took place on Asgard, as this was a Thor movie, and the balance took place in London. The supporting cast was great again, he didn’t spend as much time with his “band of merry mates” as in the first movie, but they did have some awesome fight scenes. The most memorable things is when they each threatened Loki, loyal and funny.
Odin was strong and Queen Frigga, wow! She had a fight scene that made you look at her a little differently and the only reference that comes to mind, which happened while I was watching, the fight scene in Star Wars: The Clone Wars between Yoda and Count Dooku, do you remember? Ah..mazing!
You knew that Natalie Portman was going to be back as Thor’s, love interest, Jane. Rounding out her band of merry mates, Darcy and Eric Selvig, although we saw a bit more of him than we probably wanted to, quite literally, you’ll know what I mean when you see it, brave man! Jane had a very pivotal role in this storyline, still ran around like a crazy person, but she got a few slaps in, oh! You could see how they really felt about each other, sigh.
Loki was in rare form, up to his tricks, as much as he could be locked in a dungeon, you almost had a moment of sympathy for him and then, just like that, it was gone. No surprise there, right? Related to Loki…what? A surprise appearance by an Avenger! (Not a spoiler alert, because I’m not telling who or when), but a great scene!
The villain, just plain bad, sacrificing his people so he could survive, bad juju, but not to worry…enough said.
Don’t blink or you’ll miss Stan Lee, hint…nut house, that’s all.
And lastly, please, please, please don’t forget to stay through the credits to see a sneak scene for the next movie, so important!

Good review. 🙂 I just reviewed this one too but I went on about the shirtless scene a bit too much maybe. Lol! I had a lot of fun with this film – thought it was better than the first one.

Awesome! I’m about to check your review! I’m not sure if I liked this one better, I might have to watch it again, but couldn’t Eric have at least worn boxers? 🙂

Hehe – Yeah – I didn’t give much thought to THAT nude scene. Boxers would have been good! 🙂
