Aether thor movie#

The villain is weak as usual with most MCU villains. Except for the finale but that was pretty much it.ģ. And throughout the film she again didn't have much to do.

She was in Asgard and didn't seem too surprised, she gave a tennis ball type look. Jane Foster didn't really have much to do in this film I felt. The humor I did like in this film but at times it does get a little silly especially the scene where Ian crushes the elves with a car and then him and Darcy make out and teleport, I thought that was kind of ridiculous.Ģ. This film reminds me of Lord of the Rings and it does remind me of Man of Steel too especially the scenes in Asgard are reminiscent of Krypton.ġ. The feel one of the things I love about these movies are how different they feel compared to other MCU films. The action is spectacular, I especially love the scenes where Thor is kicking ass.ģ. Asgard looks breathtaking and the scenes in it are awesome.

The visuals this movie looks nice and stylistically looks better than its predecessor which had annoying dutch angles. The rest of the cast is good too it would take me too long to explain all of them.Ģ. Tom Hiddleston honestly is just awesome as Loki, I'm not fanboying here he literally kicks ass as this character. Chris Hemsworth is again fantastic as Thor! He has proven yet again that he owns this role and I can't imagine another actor helming this role. Let me explained what I liked/disliked.ġ. The special effects are awesome, and there are some great action scenes and over all it is a good movie, it just doesn’t have the magic sparkle of the first.Thor: The Dark World was surprisingly really good, there are people out there saying its the weakest MCU film and I honestly disagree completely. The performances are all stellar, with Chris Hemsworth remaining true to the character of Thor, but Eccleston’s Malekith is not fully developed leaving him a less complex, two dimensional villain. The rhythm of the film, the flow of scenes, just wasn’t as smooth as the original film. The plot of Thor: The Dark World is good, but the execution is just a bit off. There are so many elements that go into making a film, and sometimes the tiniest thing can through off the overall experience. I do feel it lacked the graceful rhythm when compared to the first Thor movie and wonder what Taylors original cut would have looked like. The movie was not bad, in fact it was quite entertaining. To a certain extent, I agree with most critics. Critics mainly thought the performances, visual effects and action sequences were good, but that the villain was plain and lacked any complexity. Taylor has stated that he is dissatisfied with the film as Marvel altered his original vision in post-production. The movie was a commercial success, grossing over $644 million worldwide, but met with mixed reviews from critics. After Kenneth Branagh withdrew from directing the sequel, Game of Thrones alum Alan Taylor was hired. Thor: The Dark World premiered in 2013 and is the eighth film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and is part of Phase Two, taking place directly after Iron Man 3. A massive battle ensues that has the team jumping between worlds due the Convergences effects, but in the end, Thor is victorious. After a failed attempt to destroy Malekith and the Aether, the battle moves mainly to Earth, where the exact location to use the Aether and bring the darkness back is located. To save both Jane and Asgard, Thor betrays his father, and with the help of his friends and his mischievous adopted brother Loki (Tom Hiddleston), he escapes to Svartalheim, the home of the Dark Elves. The Dark Elves attack Asgard, having sensed the Aether in Jane. Thor (Chris Helmsworth) brings her to Asgard to try to save her life, which vexes Odin (Anthony Hopkins). Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), while investigating some strange occurrences in London, becomes exposed to the Aether. In the present, Asgardians believe that the Dark Elves and the Aether were all destroyed, but with the Convergence about to happen again, Malekith and his people awaken.

Bor banishes Malekith and hides the Aether some place no one will ever find it. The Convergence causes gravitational anomalies and portals to open up between the worlds. To accomplish this, the Aether must be used during a celestial event called “The Convergence”, where the nine realms come into alignment and the walls between the realms weaken.

Ages ago, Odin’s father, Bor, defeated the Dark Elves led by Malekith (Christopher Eccleston) who sought to bring eternal darkness back to the nine realms using a weapon called the Aether.
