Call me crazy, but I didn’t think Thor was half bad. In fact, I actually kind of enjoyed it. Maybe it’s the presence of some legit actors (Natalie Portman? What? I didnt know she was in this. Anthony Hopkins? For real? Stellan Skarsgård?). Maybe it’s because the hammer is just a really fun weapon, and it’s fun to watch Thor wield it when nobody else can. Or maybe it’s the fact that I like mythology in general, and it’s fun that Thor and Odin and Loki are not just comic book characters – they’re friggin mythological gods. Or maybe it’s that I’m actually starting to enjoy these super hero movies. What’s happening to me?!
