I want to talk about the fact that I do not understand Loki’s plan at the beginning of the movie. I might also consistently like men with long blonde hair and arms the size of my face but I’m going to go with the reasons I listed a moment ago.īUT THIS ISN’T WHAT I WANT TO TALK ABOUT! I think that is one of the big reasons that I like that particular movie so much. That’s the sort of thing every college graduate goes through. He has a little bit of an existential crisis after his 1st trip the the Jotunheim. Thor grows up during the movie from being a “greedy, cruel, boy” to someone who understands the real burden of being a king. (Here’s my friend and I Cosplaying really well as Loki and Thor at the 1st Salt Lake ComicCon… wait, that’s a lie.) That if you do the math (which I’ll grant that I didn’t) Thor, Loki, and friends would be around the age of college students (based on lilfespan and the fact that Loki was a baby during the war with the Frost Giants which happened during the 900s AD). It is worthwhile to note that one of the themes of the film is growing up. In a way the movie really represents, or at least reminds me of, that turn in my life. We had both long since left childhood behind but we were really entering adulthood.

Suddenly even she was leaving me for the strange and terrifying world of real adulthood. (Here’s us Cosplaying as Loki and Thor, even if my costume is kind of terrible, at the 1st Salt Lake City ComicCon)Īt the time she was one of the last friends I had from my childhood and teen years who was still single. You see, my best friend took me to see Thor with her on the day that she told me she was engaged. The real reason is that it is an important film in my own personal narrative. However, I do not believe that is the real reason. It is certainly more character driven than most of the other movies. I usually say that I like it the best because it was very intelligently done. I started with Captain America and have made my way through Iron Man 2 so the next one is Thor.Ģ) Thor is my favorite of the Avengers movies so of course I am going to watch it at any point that I have an excuse to. I think that I have explained my love for that particular movie as well as all the other Avengers films often enough that there is no reason for me to explain myself.ġ) I have been watching my way through all of the Avengers films for the last week. I am currently rewatching the movie Thor.
