Another lovely reaction! Kenneth Branagh and I are the same age, and I can just tell, from this film, that the Thor comics impacted him in more-or-less the same way they impacted me. The film zeroes in on Thor's humbling (an idea first broached in 1968), which I think is one of the most compelling arcs in Thor's story. (In the comics, his humbling took a decade. Odin took Thor's memory too, and he lived on Earth as Donald Blake, a surgeon with a bad leg, before he found the hammer again on a vacation in Norway.) I think casting Chris Hemsworth in this role was a stroke of genius, because you need someone who can handle the heroics, the obnoxious ego, the pathos, *and* the comedy. In Norse mythology, Sif (the lady warrior) is actually the wife of Thor (and she is famous for her long, golden hair, which Loki cuts off as a prank). I think there are hints in this film that Sif wishes Thor were not in love with Jane, but she is such a good friend to him that she doesn't try to interfere with the romance. The three warriors -- Fandrell, Vostagg, and Hogun -- are also in the comics. But in the comics, they are often accompanied by Baldur (in Norse mythology, the god of plants and growing things), who is Thor's best friend.

You: "Well, if he can't lift it no one can," I chuckle. " What if you put something under it..." I laugh.

I forgot how neat and fun the first round of Marvel movies were, watching this 14- 15 year old movie felt neat and makes me want to watch it.
