Thor: The Dark World

Short: Hysterical movie I laughed for hours over some of the sequences - yes they were meant to be funny, quite a bit of sci-fi violence, with added elements of dark humor I seemed to be the only one to catch in the theater.  Good flick.

Long: A better movie than the first one and I thought that one was pretty good, however everyone was relaxed this time and had fun with the genre and movie direction.  When you hit the funny part, well it is darn hard to forget that comedy which is why I am still laughing.

Loki comes into his own and does a great job, in many ways actually the best part of the film.  Thor is type cast to saying "No" a great deal or grunting - and just how tiny is our damsel in distress?  It is reminiscent of John Wayne having to walk in a trench or the damsel on a boardwalk so they could have both their faces in the same frame!  Over all Loki was by far the best.

Plot is typical, everybody wants to rule the world, to quote Jung.  No surprise there, utter failure is no surprise either.  However should you stay through the credits - your brain will be tweaked when you realize that all is as it seems that you just watched!  Some future movie has a great deal to explain to make up for the mind games stuffed in the credits!

So I did it!  Not a single spoiler's alert!

Yeah, I will probably end of owning it, it is quirky enough to watch a few times over ...
