Not as good as the first but still very entertaining.

leave the intentional humor to darcy, the unintentional to erik (no pants was great) and the sorta site gags, like where do i put my hammer

I did really like when

Spoiler: show

Loki took them out of Asgaard and he said "taadaa"

I have mixed feelings about it. Kinda suffers from the superman problem, but had some cool ways to handle it. The humor didn't bug me and felt on par with the first, but it is wildly uneven and sluggish at times. Even the effects range from amazing to television quality.

In the end it tries to be too much, despite the threadbare plot, when Thor and Loki should be the main attraction. It reaches Trekkie levels at times. The Dark Elves were cool though. Didn't have any problems following anything...

the Captain America bit was great!

It's a very weird movie. Should have been smaller but what can you do? We're on the death march to Avengers 2.

And Guardians of the Galaxy looks terrifying.

No, this movie need a lot more Thor and Loki and a lot less of EVERYTHING ELSE. Thor is practically a guest star. Can't give it a pass.

While I enjoyed it you're right it should be called Thor 2: Loki Owns this Movie

Hiddleson really has been great in all three so far

It was so frustrating. Felt like I was sitting through hours of Odin Makes Stupid Decisions and Wacky Scientists Try To Look Busy while Thor was offscreen punching bad guys and Loki was hanging out in a cell.

Ah yes, the Batman syndrome.

Sort of, but instead of the villain stealing the movie, the starring role is divvied up between spectacle and too many other characters. He's barely around during any of the major points of the movie. I figure its like Superman. They dont know what to do with him.

I saw this today and I really don't know what to think about it.

I agree with mcparry about that one scene being totally xenia warrior princess though.

it wasn't what I expected in a way but I'm not sure it was good either.

i just don't know i guess.

hmm thor 2 opened with a nice 86 million dollar weekend is already at 327 million. very respectful

I didnt care much for the first one, but im looking forward to see this one on Imax.

i think i liked this better than any of the other solo avengers movies

i thought malaketh n the elves were really cool, but loki is just light years ahead of any marvel character on the big screen right now.. everything he does n says is fuckin great

yea, the cap part had me losin it

She has that look that kinda makes you think she'll do anything on a first date. I saw this last night. I thought it was awesome. I think over time, when this whole marvel phases is over. People will look back on the individual films and see that the thor movies were the best ones.

I think the first Thor movie had a bunch of problems, but what worked well really worked well. I don't know.

Watching this today, I think.

this will probably have to wait until netflix or dvds for me. I've enjoyed all the solo avengers movies. There are parts of each I felt worked great, and other parts that didn't, but everything has been fun to watch. Ironman I is the only one I thought was excellent.

Nobody's mentioned the after credits scene?

I really think Guardians of the Galaxy is going to be Marvel's first bomb.
