like loki obviously sort of steals the show as a character but
hemsworth is such a great thor
Agreed. The cast was fantastic, as well. Not a single weak link. Who would have thought the guy who played Punisher in War Zone would be an excellent Volstagg? Jamie Alexander's Sif was another brilliant addition. I hope she gets more screen time in the sequel.
Portman is a fine actress, and also the Jane Foster in the movie is pretty different from her comics counterpart as far as I recall
for example in the comics, she's a paramedic, not an astrophysicist. those are two very different jobs that require very different personalities
I guess what I'm saying is that the writers made a completely new character that didn't already have a template for how she would fit into a Thor story like a paramedic Jane Foster would have

Should have cut out Portman's character and just had the bromance with Stellan Skaarrsgaaard

It happens sometimes. Betty Ross was unrecognizable in Millar's Ultimates, though Thor's Foster is closer to her 616 counter-part than that Ross. It didn't bother me. They got a great actress for the part and the character is an interesting take on Jane Foster.
don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it was necessarily a bad move making her an astrophysicist. I'm just saying that since it is a completely new take on the character, there's no way for anyone to tell how well it works with the other parts of the story until its there on the screen. It's hit-or-miss because it's new
the scene of him trying to lift his hammer, then the news of his father "dying" and all of that are plenty to make us believe that he's changed his ways
it's just that even before those things happen, we're totally on his side just like we were with tony stark
the second he smiles we love him

She was an unexpected joy to watch. Prior to seeing the film I heard many people and critics hate the character, yet I found her gorgeous, funny and relatable.

it's depressing but not as confusingly dumb as I thought
i still can't stand the guy
man asgard looks so cool in this movie
Every time Thor spins the hammer
instaboner
When he does that thing on Jotunheim where he spins it and sprays ice shards from the ground at the giants
hhaauh

i mean natalie portman is a good actress, so it's either we blame the writing or she just phoned it in
both are reasonable to think
woo thor

they are complaining in D&D about the fact that Cap wears a mask
one dude is even wondering why he wears a costume
I mean, really?
it's right there in his name
You don't see Captain Crunch hocking cereal in a polo and a pair of chinos.
Hint: it's me
how do I know a trainwreck happens unless I see it?

the parts of earth are an obvious flaw in thor as a movie
but at the same time i could watch a whole movie of thor just hanging out with jane foster and getting drunk with the old dude
But it was missing a good half an hour or so of character development.
Thor just inexplicably changed from a jerk to a patient, understanding nice guy overnight.
it really would have fixed so much about the plot
it's just that even before those things happen, we're totally on his side just like we were with tony stark

"We don't have horses, just dogs, cats, birds..."
"Then give me one of those large enough to ride."
I thought I was the only guy who saw that movie!

but I swear, that is all I can think when I see her on screen
