It was a teaser trailer. Just shows her using some fancy device to put the uniform on.

Can't even find it now.

So Marvel is really putting the work in to destroy the theory that the 3rd movie in a series is always the worst, huh?

That Ragnarok trailer. Damn. Looks sooooooooooo good! Talking Hulk! Cate Blanchett is freakin' glorious as Hela! There's just so much stuff here I'm lovin'!

Thor 3: doing justice to the series that thor 2 tried hard to destroy

Ned
Flash

Justin Hammer
The Mandarin
Baron Zemo

Jarvis as well, until Agent Carter introduced the actual Jarvis. Went from being a copy of Alfred Pennyworth in the comics to an AI with no visual representation who eventually became the freaking Vision.

I actually really enjoy TDW

But seriously, how do people like The First Avenger more than The Dark World?

Me personally, Thor 2 is on par with Iron Man 3 as being the worst Marvel movie. Iron Man is my favorite, but the 3rd movie was awful, and that is how I felt Thor 2 was. It was just dark and didn't feel like a good Marvel movie. Phase 2 was definitely weaker than 1, but 3 is looking to be far better, much like how Cars 3 proved to be the sequel the original needed and put 2 to shame

Easily. Dark World was boring. It seemed that everyone except maybe Chris Hemsworth and Christopher Eccleston were phoning it in. The story was uninspired, even if it was based on previous Thor material. (I don't know if it was, I'm not a Thor fan.) The First Avenger on the other hand had energetic and enthusiastic acting, a great story, and it set up both the hero and his sidekick for major stories in the sequels. Granted, Cap has a rich and voluminous fiction to mine, but I never was a Cap fan either, and I knew nothing of the Winter Soldier before I saw the 2nd film. So I guess as a general moviegoer I liked First Avenger much more than Dark World, mainly due to it being an origin story. Maybe if I was a die hard Marvel fan or Avengers fan, I might look at it differently.

I like the movie but Thor:The Dark World has 2 major things that bother me:
- The use of Malekith and Dark Elves weren't used in their full potential.
-The way,Odin speech ,dismisses the idea of Asgardian Gods.In two different ocasions on the movie he bring ups this point,that the people were not mythical,it was just the way that the people in Midar perceived them.It was like MCU was afraid of using the word "Magic" before Doctor Strange.

Cable revealed.

Cable looks freakin' amazing!

Needs more shoulder pads.

He does talk in the comics so this is going to finally be the most comic accurate Hulk seen on screen to date.

Didn't Captain America Civil War already disprove that? Iron Man 3 is a solid film, CA:CW is stronger, but it's not a bad wrap up to a trilogy either. I don't get the hate towards it at all.


I'll take CA:TFA over T:DW any day, it's action finale is great at least.

I can't speak for anyone else, but for me it was 1 word: Mandarin. The character was trashed on-screen almost as bad as Shockwave and Megatron were in DoTM. The scene where Tony's house is destroyed is pretty cool, though.

Aw. I thought the Mandarin was a cleaver ruse in IM3. Especially after the one-shot when Slattery is told the REAL Mandarin does not take his name being used lightly!

That was a let down on a few levels, I admit. I just didn't let it ruin the whole film for me cause I felt everything else worked.

Iron Man 3 and Thor: The Dark World felt like real disappointments to me. Iron man is my favorite, yet I really dislike that film. It felt all wrong and it did nothing for me. Thor was the same way. Captain America was the highlight of phase 2 for me, best film of them all from that phase

IM3's biggest problem was the change in directors. It clearly felt different.

I still enjoyed it though. Mandarin was fun, though if you haven't seen the one-shot then I can understand why people would be upset with the "twist" on The Mandarin.

Where would one find this "one-shot"?

Should be on Youtube, unless it's been taken down. Otherwise, Thor The Dark World's Blu-Ray/Dvd will have it.

Anyone watched The Defenders yet?

I started it this morning, but only made it about halfway through the first episode before I had to turn it off and get back to real life. I can't really make an opinion any yet, so far it's only reintroduced us to the characters.

With this new job, and family and whatnot, I should finish it in about 3 months.

Binged Defenders and gotta say, it utterly enjoyed it. Matt is likeable again, Jessica and Luke are great, Misty and Claire are awesome. I love Foggy and Karen. Colleen is a bit whiny and Danny is Danny.

Sigourney Weaver acts her heart out and is amazing. Love her.

So yeah, while a little predictable, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
