So, apparently, Thor is good...?

That's 35 critics and a 95% fresh as of right now. Not expected at all. Is Thor the victim of terrible trailers? I was kind of expecting it to be a train wreck.

 

[Jay]

Trailing were pretty bad but yeah, critics are very favorable in regards of this movie thus far.

I may see it.

 

[ThatNickGuy]

I'm glad that critics were able to hammer out an agreement.

 

[Gusto]

Huh.

Well colour me intrigued.

 

[Jay]

Looks like tomorrow will be Thor's day.

 

[sixpackshaker]

I'd give my right eye to see this... -Odin.

 

[linglingface]

Too many movies to watch... @_@

 

[Jiarn]

Haven't all of Marvel Productions films done well on Rotten Tomatoes?

 

[Frank]

HA HA!

NOPE!

Punisher Warzone had the Marvel Studios (or the Knights variant) sticker on it.

Now, I liked it. It was an entertaining pile of trash.

 

[Jiarn]

I meant since they went "Independant".

[sixpackshaker]

A co-production of Marvel Studios.

 

[ThatNickGuy]

My butt's gonna be so Thor from watching this movie several times in a row.

 

[Cajungal]

Ahh, but can you do a pun with yggdrasil? C'mon, man, challenge thyself!

 

[Gusto]

O man I probably could but I wanna see where Nick takes it.

 

[figmentPez]

I'm approaching this with Midgard-ed optimism.

 

[ThatNickGuy]

Soon as ya tell me how to pronounce it? Challenge acccepted.

It's directed by Kenneth Branaugh.

 

[Cajungal]

"Ig-druh-sil?"

And so was that Frankenstein movie, which, while not terrible, still wasn't all that good either.

I actually liked his adaptation of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Now, if you were to bring up a weak Branagh film, I'd mention Love's Labour's Lost.

 

[Gryfter]

Man the print ads for Thor have been god-awful. You'd think they would've gone with something more dynamic than a Thor bust with a red filter on it. Glad to hear the movie is getting well reviewed though despite the poor marketing push.

 

[Chibibar]

Heh. We never believe in critics. My wife wants to see this movie the moment she saw the trailer cause it is THOR!!!!

 

[Covar]

I liked the trailers...

I'd bring up Wild Wild West, unless you only mean ones he directed.

Actors usually have very limited creative input into a movie other than their part.

 

[Jay]

Movie critics can suck my di

Oh wait, they like the movie?

Ohhh shiiii

 

[Gusto]

It'd still be cool if they sucked your dick though.

 

[Null]

Not for them.

 

[Biardo]

I saw it last night, and I really liked it
in fact I'm going to see it again this saturday

 

[Bowielee]

I have to say I loved it. Watch for the Hawkeye cameo, and as always stay for the clip after the credits.

 

[Math242]

I really liked it

Here, read this awesome review by one of my favorite movie reviewers AO Scott:

[Math242]

having read the review, i'm not surprised he's one of your favourite critics... at all

 

[sixpackshaker]

Now the mass market critics get to lambaste a comic book movie...

And the Rotten Tomatoes rating has dropped over 10%.
