I have to admit. I am a super hero geek and I have seen all the super hero movies and each one has a place in my heart. Even the really HORRIBLE HULK movies... just their place is MUCH smaller.. lol
Now let's chat about THOR! (SPOILER ALERT)
Erica and I LOVED IT. You could tell they definitely had a much bigger budget for the film this time around.
Also out of all the "Avenger" movies I would say Loki is my favorite character. Yes of course I still love Captain America and he is an ULTRA BAD ASS, but in terms of the movies and the acting I am always excited to see Loki on screen. Tom Hiddleston does an amazing job of being a slimeball, but loveable at the same time haha.
As far as the movie goes I was entertained the entire time. I feel like Marvel does a great job at adding the right amount of comedy to these types of movies. Seeing Erik Selvig running around naked was hilarious and Asgard looked more bad ass than the first time.
But if you are reading this it is because you already have seen the movie so I want to jump to the few points I wanted to chat about.
Death of Frigga (Thor's Mom)
I was absolutely shocked by this. I did not expect to see her die and to be honest, it got to me a little bit. She was a bad ass and if it wasn't for Malekith's bodyguard I am pretty sure she would have beat him up really good and survived. But this brought out a side of Loki I wanted to see. He is the God of Mischief and will always do whatever he feels like doing. But to see that he really cared for his mother when he learned of her death was a very impactful scene for me.
The Black Hole Grenades
Don't have much to say other than that looked like an EXTREMELY painful way to die..
Loki & Thor's Deception
I knew it was their plan all along... but I DID NOT expect to see Thor's hand cut off. I was like... ewwwwwww how is he going to use his hammer? haha
Malekith's arrival on Earth
Did anyone else notice how graceful his ship landed on every other planet but for some reason on Earth they decided to destroy the surrounding area? Were they having an "End of the Light, Start of the Darkness" party on their way there?
MaleKith's Face
When Malekith recieved his face incineration did anyone else think? "Damn, how many times is Christopher Eccleston going to have his face burned off in a movie? (G.I. JOE) haha
What did you all think about THOR Nation?
