Thor: The Dark World Thoughts

Hello internet universe!!!!!! So I finally was able to watch Thor: The Dark World last night and let me just say, I HAVE NO WORDS!!! It was soooo good! Much better than the first. First I'm probs going to talk about random shit before actually going into my review of the movie.

Okay so I went to see the movie with two of my friends but they were both girls and the only reason they went was to see Chris Hemsworth which was pretty annoying... I mean he's super mega hot but I can't stand when people go to movies just to ogle the actor/actress. It's really obnoxious. I mean I was there to see the actual plot of the movie while they were giggling in their seats... Anyways, so about a quarter of the way into the movie, the projector broke and I was literally about to kill someone! Ugh. I hate when the projectors break. Long story short, we ended up getting free passes and were allowed to go to a different showing of Thor which had only gotten about half an hour into it so we had to re-watch a little bit of what we already saw but positives, I was able to see Thor! If I hadn't seen it yesterday, I would have been really pissed. Sorry if that was rambly...

From here on, there will probs be spoilers so I'd go to the last paragraph if you haven't seen Thor yet!!!

Like I said, I loved the movie. The acting was fantastic, the plot was crazy good and there was a Captain America cameo!!!! (For those who don't know, I LOVE Cap). There was just the right amount of humor in the movie mixed in with drama and sadness. And Loki was beyond incredible. I love Tom Hiddleston soooooo much! When Loki turned on Thor and chopped his hand off, the first thing I thought was "sucks to suck Thor". My second thought was that Thor's hand will probably grow back and Loki attacked him just to get close to the elves so he could kill them! I didn't even think of the fact that Loki was creating an illusion. I also seriously teared up when Loki "died". I couldn't believe what happened although I thought as far as deaths go, that was a pretty incredible one. I was so happy when I realized he was alive and I laughed at him outthinking everyone and becoming king in the end.

The Captain America cameo was hilarious. I know it was only for like 5 seconds but seriously it made me so happy to see Chris Evans. The little speech he made about loyalty and trust was hilarious coming out of Chris Evans's mouth in Tom Hiddleston's voice.

Now for the things I didn't like or in other words, Jane Foster. I seriously can't stand her character and Natalie Portman and Chris Hemsworth seriously have no chemistry. The scene when they first saw each other was awful. It was really awkward when I know it was supposed to be romantic. The whole story wouldn't have happened either if Jane hadn't been so curious and touched the ether. Thank god Loki didn't die or else Jane would have been the cause for both Loki and Thor's mom's deaths!

Also, the ending was kind of weird and not really in Thor's character. Why would he be so selfish and leave Asgard when they need him the most to be with Jane? Will he age as a human on Earth? Is he going to stay with Jane until she dies and then return to Asgard? Will he loose his powers? Is he giving up being a god? I have so many questions and no answers! Thor just left Asgard with no heir. I mean they thought Loki was dead and Thor's dad was pretty old himself so no one would be able to take the crown.... I feel like Thor is not normally that selfish...

Anyways, so overall I'd give the movie about 4.5/5 stars. I loved it a lot and I would definitely see it again. If you haven't seen it yet, definitely check it out although I'd say if you haven't seen the first Thor, you might be a tiny bit confused. Love you all.
