Catch Marvel’s Thor: The Dark World

Do you what has been keeping me excited recently? Well if you are a Marvel's fan, just watched Iron Man 3 as well (and also got stuck to that catchy Blue Da Ba Dee by Eiffel 65), been crazy about Avengers, bought their DVD and also kept on watching the final post credits scene involving shawarma....then you must be a super Marvel' fan like me!

Let us also not forget there was another ending scene in Avengers which has bearing on my blog post today. Shall I do a short recap: We see the leader of the Chitauri alien force explaining the failure of their attack on Earth (led by Loki) to a mysterious alien, who turns and smiles at the idea of dealing with The Avengers would be “courting death itself.” This alien is none other than Thanos and most likely to be the villain for this year’s Thor 2. 

So to go deeper into the story, Loki and Thor return to Asgard in the Thor sequel and because of this ultimate bad ass, Loki and Thor have to work together to stop Thanos from getting the Infinity Gauntlet (what is it about these people and all their dwarf type tools!). So is Thor 2 what this Avengers trailer has promised? Let us have a quick look at the trailer first


Unfortunately the trailer does not seem to give much away does it? But it has such a ominous score that simply draws you into the story - telling you that YOU JUST HAVE TO WATCH THIS MOVIE! Thats all out, the way things are looking at right now, I seriously feel that this movie would be a bigger hit compared to both Iron Man 3 (which disappointed by the way) as well as The Avengers.

So what else excites me to catch this movie?

1) Check out Loki. He likes like an old man (ah pek in local speak) in the movie, but there is a growing group of supporters who seem to prefer Loki to Thor. Who needs the 'Hem'some brothers when you got Tom Hiddleston. Hes not the typical run of the mill kind of guy, but he oozes that kind of special charm that will sure get your hearts fluttering...do believe me just check out this pic...


Well ok I cheated a bit by taking that photo from 10 Sexiest Photos of Tom Hiddleston: For Those Who Prefer Thor's Younger Brother http://hotinkreviews.blogspot.sg/2012/06/10-sexiest-photos-of-tom-hiddleston-for.html trust me on this Loki will soon be the next big star

2) For the guys do not be disappointed because the second reason that excites me to catch this movie is none other than...wait for it....Natalie Portman! She is almost the same age as me and she is such a super hottie. I know you guys are still sore that she married ballet dancer Benjamin Millepied and even gave birth to a son (Aleph Portman-Millepied). The couple plan to relocate to Paris when Millepied's new job starts in fall 2014 and Portman has also indicated that she would like to become a French citizen when they move. So why should we catch Thor 2? Because we love to see Natalie Portman and secondly we never know when she may decide to be a full time housewife and stop acting.

“If you had Thor’s Mjölner for a day, what would you do with it?”

Well lets first ask ourselves what Thor's hammer can do. Other than thinking that I may have a major problem even lifting it without yet wielding it, it sure is a good accessory to have if you are planning to join the opposition (local joke here). Nevertheless, I think what our country needs is not only more underground space but also a better transport system so I say lets take the hammer out and get to digging and building (sorry more local jokes!).

Before I sign off, I really have to say that this is seriously a show worth watching. The ratings and box office sales are going to hit the roof and I can only say if you cant watch it early, better late than never....heres signing off....

The Avengers by Marvel

If you have been watching some super hero or Marvel related movies recently, and at the end of the movie you see Samuel L Jackson appear out of nowhere, with a pirate eye patch to boot, your eyes are not playing tricks on you. For one thing, you might be surprised that Samuel L Jackson actually plays Nick Fury, and he is one of the key characters in The Avengers. I recall I was watching Iron Man, Thor and Captain America and at the end of the movie, I did see this eye patch guy appear. If you were observant, you would have noticed Iron Man or his human form Tony Stark, appear in Captain America too. Why you see all this is that these movies serve as a prelude of some sorts to The Avengers movie which will be shown soon. While there are other superheros such as The Incredible Hulk, Hawkeye and Black Widow who appear in the Avengers movie, I did not really see the pirate guy appear elsewhere though. Anyway enough about Samuel and let me show and tell you more about this movie. Why not check out the trailer first?



The Avengers is brought to you by Marvel Studios and features the superheros I have mentioned earlier. From what I understand, some new enemy or threat is going to emerge and this is what brings Nick Fury, who is the Director of the international peacekeeping agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D., to source for heros to fight for the good of mankind. Needless to say "The Avengers” is based on the Marvel comic book series “The Avengers,” first published in 1963. I have yet to read this series but anything with a gang of cool crime fighting dudes is worth my attention. 

So you are going to ask me who is your favourite Avengers superhero and why. I have to say that this is a tough choice, especially with Scarlett Johansson in the movie. While Samuel Jackson is one of my all time favourite actors, if I am to choose a superhero, I would say Iron Man. This is because he does not have any super powers of his own but with good technology he creates for himself a power suit and uses it to do good. I am not sure if Pepper Potts is in the Avengers but I guess I will only get to find out when I watch this movie.

With so much super hero action, I strongly recommend that you guys catch this movie. Needless to say, I am sure that there will be many Avenger toys released together with the movie!
