Does anyone know if there's a good reason to see Thor 2 in 3D? I don't care for it in general, but the way the showtimes line up for me on Saturday, it's basically the same price at the same time for either one.
Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
The film site I write for occasionally now has its own Facebook page:
Lots of "likes" much appreciated!
Consider it Liked!
THOR!
So, the reason to see it in 3D is the Winter Soldier preview in front of it. The reason not to see it is everything else, because I still think 3D is ugh.
There could have been more Thor. Also, I think there is a thing now like the (whatever it is?) HBO boobs-in-20-minutes rule, because the Hems took his shirt off almost immediately. (But then was dressed for the rest of the movie.)
ANYWAY. I liked it, and will be happy to see it again next weekend. Two spoilery things: the Chris Evans cameo was excellent, and I knew the Loki death thing was a fake-out, because I was on tumblr last night, and it was not on fire.
I am not a Thor person so I thought the movie was just okay. I found very few of the intended humorous parts to be actually humorous.
I am not a HUGE Loki fan but I really dug Loki in this movie. A lot if the best parts of the movie were Loki related.
The movie could have been 20-30 minutes shorter and been better. The scenes after the credits made me really irritated for some reason - especially the first one.
I was the only person in my theater (I think) who laughed out loud at the woman on the train rubbing up on Thor.
That amused me.
Also I totally didn't realize that one guy was Zachary Levi.
AND. I did not know Eccleston was in the fucking movie.
Also, good thing I don't know the London tube, because the directions given were ALL WRONG, and you know that would have pulled me out of the movie.
