Thor: The Dark World

[ericadawn16]

So, what better day to watch Thor than Thorsday, right?

It was AWESOME. I had some fears that I would end up hating it especially with VERY heightened expectations but I LOVED it. Everyone was almost perfect and I feel like this was the Thor movie I wanted all along. I will have more coherent thoughts at a later date and a proper review.

For now...

SPOILERS

Skywalker Sound reuses sounds which I find amusing but in this case, I had to giggle. You're reusing sounds from Star Wars: The Phantom Menace for a Natalie Portman movie, really?
lol

My mom hates Darcy. I like her but I don't understand how she is still an intern after 2-3 years. We've decided she should have been upgraded to Jane's unpaid assistant.

Tom Hiddleston's Loki is almost completely based off Kid!Loki because this movie really used the "Everyone thinks I'm a monster. I have to play with it. It's kind of my super power." card but he and Thor were both able to use it to their advantage and their last scene properly together? DAMN!

My Mom: After he died, I kept waiting for him to show up again...I thought it would be sooner.

I was also giggling at the irony/karma/etc. of dying so similar to how you killed Coulson...

If Loki was impersonating Odin, does that mean he killed Odin?

Jotunheim monster is on the loose in London!

Me: Is that going to be a future SHIELD show?
My Mom: Or Primeval.

Make it a crossover and that's the most awesome thing EVER!

My theory is that Loki put Odin in the cells under another appearence. :)

Saw the movie last week. Loved it too. Pity Frigga had to die. She didn't go down like a punk though. She would have smote Malekith dead if it hadn't been for Kurse.

So tell me, how do they handle the "magic" stuff? Because I really liked how in the first Thor movie, they basically gave scientific explanations for everything with Clarke's Second Law and everything.

Just saw the movie today, it was awesome! Somebody who follows the comics told me that Loki tricked Odin into going into Odinsleep.

Most things are explained, like Jane tells the Midgard explanations for things that happen on Asgard.

However, Loki remains unexplained because if science and magic are the same...wouldn't he be like the Tony Stark of Asgard?

LOLOL, the Tony Stark of Asgard. I love that.

I really want to see a fic, where Tony, Bruce, and Jane all corner Thor and badger him with science questions. And he'd be all like "Dude I don't know, I'm just a warrior, you should ask my brother."

Loki Doki Doki

OMG, I NOTICED THAT TOO.

Odin is sleeping and Loki holds the throne. :]

Jotunheim monster is on the loose in London!


Loki should keep him as a pet and call him George.

***

"Your birthright was to die," is Odin's version of my mother's, "You ruined my life." Ouch. Actually Odin, I'd like to point out that Jotunheim is still Loki's birthright...considering he committed patricide and is now the only living heir to that world's throne. also, i WONDER IF Odin IS TELLING LOKI THE TRUTH ABOUT HOW HE WAS FOUND. Odin has lied about everything else to Loki, why not the reason he was in the temple? Not the be thrown away, but for protection? Was Loki placed into the temple for protection or was he a sacrifice to the Gods of Jotunheim for victory against the Aesir?

In other news, I wonder how true Loki's show of emotion was with Frigga's death. I would like to believe that it truly upset him, but I really don't know if that was just a scene he was playing out for Thor's benefit. Maybe he thought Frigga wouldn't come to any harm, or maybe her death was part of the play. I don't know.

I do think, as you said long ago, that Loki is still working with Thanos to assemble the Infinity Gauntlet. And by working with I mean one day betray...

Now I'm waiting for Sigyn to show up in one of these Thor movies and I hope she gets a better story arch than her original one in the comics.

I hope they didn't kill Odin. Ow. We don't need more angst. (Or we do I haven't decided.)
