Thor (2011)

How appropriate was it that I chose Thursday (Thor’s Day) to check out the thunder god’s addition to the Marvel take over. It was a moderately large crowd which contained I would assume 50% curious fans who loved Iron Man, 40% geeks who love anything comic book, and 10% Thor fans that know more about him than “that dude who is a god”.
