The God of Thunder has an Australian accent

... well, that was a very silly movie.

I was dubious from the start, despite the excellent visuals, as brash, arrogant, overconfident characters are a definite turn off for me.

But then Jane and Darcy turned up. Especially Darcy. Hee.

I feel Loki was in need of a spanking and a time-out - no, not in the kinkmeme sense. Nasty piece of work.

Clint! Hi, Clint! (He and Thor will be bros, yes?)

Chris Hemsworth has grown up nicely (hi, Chris's chest) but I would have considerable trouble taking him seriously even if he weren't playing a out-of-place god. Same thing with Jesse Spencer and Ryan Kwanten. I will always associate them with soap operas and teenybopper magazine covers.

And Thor has an Aussie accent? Really?

I haven't seen the movie, but had to comment anyway as you're one of the tiny minority I've seen who haven't fallen in love with Loki.

Unless you're double bluffing about the spanking thing *g*

Well, I promise you're not missing much. And no double bluff, I think they'd have to rewrite most of the movie before I could like Loki.

I felt some sympathy for him at first - he was feeling underappreciated and overshadowed by Thor and then he found out a Big Shocking Secret about his heritage. But there are ways to deal with such things that do not involve lying to, deceiving, manipulating, injuring and trying to kill those who love and trust him. Also, it seemed like he was just looking for an excuse to do it all anyway.

Lovely character. Why is he a favourite?!
