I wasn't even aware there were actually people practicing this religion. I mean,I know metal bands/fans use the imagery,and as someone part Norweigian I enjoyed the stuff at Epcot,but I didn't realise anyone still believed it was true. Why didn't anyone take offense to the comic version of Thor,or did they,and I just didn't hear about it?

BTW if anyone here practices this religion,I'm not bashing you,I'm just curious.

Count me in the minority who love The Incredible Hulk as well.

I saw Thor in 2D since I knew 3D wouldn't be worth the migraine.

I enjoyed it, but didn't find it nearly as different from other superhero flicks as it's being praised for. Sure, it had a fine story to tell, but I still felt like I had seen this movie many times before.

The transitions between Earth and Asgard were really difficult. I understand these two settings are supposed to be vastly different, but they're so different that I felt like two separate movies were going on. The absurd costumes didn't help matters.

I don't know. I want to say I really like it, but there's too much about it that feels choppy. I'm also wondering if knowing it takes place in the same universe as Iron Man, Iron Man 2 and Incredible Hulk made it harder to buy.

Not to be a party pooper. Maybe I'm just weary of superhero flicks. Hemsworth was born for the role and the rest of the cast was a lot of fun to watch. I appreciated Thor's story arc even if I felt the rest was kind of clunky. I am looking forward to seeing the character return in The Avengers.

I loved Thor. It was entertaining from beginning to end. My favorite character though was Heimdel. Yes he is played by a black guy but he was the most intense looking scary character in the movie. And Heimdel watches everything... even things you do in private.


Edit

Also don't see this in 3d it was a a waste of money. 2d would have been superior
