I watched it tonight. I liked it
Haven't seen it yet.. But is the film worth collecting either Version of HT's Thor from this film.
Just got back .... liked it a lot.
"Humor" wasn't as overboard as I was fearing....well-paced, great production. Really opened up the "world" from the last one instead of just repeating it. Cast really helps continue to sell this, especially Hemsworth. All n' all, well worth seeing....
My only nit (easily ignored by getting up and leaving at the end on my next viewing)...was the mid-credit tease. No spoiling here, just....ugh. The whole tone of it felt "off"....almost campy compared to what we've seen from MS so far. Just looked tacky....
But that didn't detract from THOR Dark World....not at all.
I just think that the GOTG footage was TOO different tonally from the Thor/current MCU universe that some people just aren't sure how to take it (yet). Especially those people who have no idea what the **** GOTG is (which at this point is the vast majority), let alone that it's on it's way.
and looked like B-Wing starfighters
I liked the Viking designs on the Asgard ships and the Tele Tubbies did have cool B wing fighters.
The only part I did not like was the first after credit scene...the costumes, makeup, and set just looked awful. Very cheesy compared to the rest of the movie, it looked like they put that scene together in 5 minutes.

Alot of cool norse scenery, they fleshed Asgard out pretty well, carvings, statues, everything had a great vibe to it.
Maybe in the next movie Thor will inherit his Grandfather's batle armor, loved the look of the older Asgardians had going on at the beginning.
A different director led that segment. TDW director agrees with us

Absolutely loved Borr's helmet!
..though, I can understand people not liking it for Thor.
All the girls gasped at shirtless Thor Imax size.
I went in with low expectations. I knew the 66% rotten tomatoes score. Was aware of the tonal inconsistency claims. I have to say it didn't matter; I really liked this movie. Considerably more than the first one. This gave me a sense of the realm if Asgard that I didn't get from the first. I finally understood that Asgard was a futuristic place with an olde world aesthetic. I like that. It's not written in stone that all space faring races need sleek lines and such. It also made sense considering how long the asgardoans live. Tradition feels important. I felt Thor was a much more like able character than the first
Time around. He was much more demensional and also Hemsworth is finally comfortable inhabiting the character this third go round.
Hiddelston is great. And I like what the movie does to further the relationships.
The dark Elves are a bit pointless. Although I did enjoy that they seemed strong in combat and actually posed a threat. However I wasnt really to scared of malekith.
The gotg tie in might have been tonally different but I really enjoyed Benicios performance. I thought it was a great tease and heightens my excitement for gotg. Which was the point
Seeing captain America in there was a very marvel thing to do. Fun.
Also loved the last scene after the credits. I'm curious to see how Thor will fit in to the earth world
There was a 50 or so year old woman sitting next to my friend who made comments like "Oh my God" and "Yummy, yummy" during that scene. She was loud and annoying before the movie started and at other times during the film, but that part was the worst.
