THOR: The Dark World

Not having the helmet doesn't bother me a bit.

Could construe that differently if we weren't mature folk around here.

Really enjoyed it. 8 out of 10
Look out for Croydon when somebody points at a map. Marvel is making this place world famous.

Sounds like another good one. I absolutely loved the first film so its good to hear this is at least as good as that one.

I think one of the head honchos from Marvel or Disney is from Croyden. Something like that.

Just got back. I rate it a 7/10

Was entertaining enough i guess, one of those movies where you say it was good for what it was.

The humour was quite good at a few parts but embarassing at others.

Malekith was forgettable. He was a character with a legacy but you asked why, he never seemed to live up to this badass the movie was telling you he was, he pretty much left everything to the henchmen.

The Aether power that was the maguffin of the movie and the convergance event was continually told in exposition, but it was a case of talking alot but saying little, pretty much saying the same thing but using different words and telling us once was enough.

This movie tried to be the most dramatic of the MCU ones and imo it didn't really work as well as they intended. If it was just the Asgard scenes it would've acomplished it's goal but the Earth subplots and humour right after got in the way.

Same can be said for the first movie but the Earth scenes in those had Thor and were done better than this.

Hemsworth was the highlight, he did good in the role. Portman phoned it in imo, she seemed to just go through the motions. I liked Levi as Fandrall.

Spoilers for my thoughts on some scenes.

Spoiler:

The mad scientist in his pants. No, just No!
Darcy and her Intern buddy were a distraction that brought boredom and held back the movie.
The B-Wing starfighters were good to show alien tech but Asgard going from swords and shields and horses to defence cannons and flying skiffs seemed at odds.
A number of scenes telegraphed things, you could easily see them coming. like Thor losing his hand, it was obvious a soon as Malekith started leeching Jane that he was fine and it was an illusion, same with Lokis death
Friggas death failed to impact on me since we didn't have a connection to her, if it was Odin or Sif it would've been much more powerful as they are more developed character in the series.
Captain Americas cameo was frankly silly and done just for "oh hey look its him" sake

9/10

 

[Ultron-7]

Seeing it tomorrow, was meant to go today but had work to finish. Looking forward to it and hopefully some hints at GOTG or Thanos etc. Bascially some cosmic marvel stuff.

Stay for the mid-credits.

Spoiler:

Though This collectors guy looked really silly imo, and i don't get how Sif and the other guy had this gem.

Please ignore my 9/10

I'm in the US and it hasn't been released yet.

I'm just a Marvel Fanboy practicing my score.

You may proceed with your optimism.

This can't be any worse than IM3, can it?

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

I though optimism was foreaken in these lands.

Nothing you say can change that DOFP trailer.

If Nova is giving this a 7 its at least a 8-9.

As long as Jane foster doesn't save the day should be good.
