The character in the after-credits scene? Voiced by Seth Green.
Who was the real power? The Captain? or Tenille?

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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's great.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Thor 2 was a cavalcade of idiocy that no one owned up to. It made me hiss and spit. And, as noted, it doesn't have an RDJ. Hemsworth showed zero charisma, did one cute thing.
I liked Lee Pace! It certainly feels like the season of Pace, what with Hobbits and Halt and Catch Fire and this. He was suitably angry and threatening for me.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I thought Thor 2 was a lot of fun. Not as good as the first one, but still enjoyable.
Then again, I like Iron Man 2 better than most folks (though it's not great like the original.) Haven't seen 3 yet.
The two Hulks are at the bottom of my list, though i'd still give the Norton Hulk a 3/5.

Thor 2 should have been subtitled "Thor and Loki re awesome together, and Frigga kicks ass."
I own Iron Man 2, and I fast forward through the birthday party. I love the particle accelerator parts. "We're back in hardware mode!"

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I loved Iron Man 3 and The Incredible Hulk isn't bad, just mediocre in comparison to all the others.
He was suitably angry and threatening for me.
Me too.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I did not see Hobbitts 2: Electric Boogaloo, so maybe my assessment would be different, but I just don't see him as a bad guy...much less a super-world-killing monster.
I thought he did a good job as Thranduil, bringing some depth to his character's expectations of Legolas, grudge against the dwarves, etc. He can do a good cold antagonist that's hiding seething anger under a noble facade. Thuggish bruiser, not so much.
I think there was a similar error of approach for Michael Rooker's character. He did a great backwoods psycho on The Walking Dead, but playing Yondu as Redneck Smurf felt really out of place.
