I'm having the same problem. Except that there is a 2D showing, but its only once a week.

I've already missed last weeks, so need to wait until Friday to see it!!

Truth be told, I found it better in 3D than in 2D. The space effects when in 3D make the movie unreal. Not all of the 3D version was actually in 3D, there were some scenes that I found the glasses to be redundant and others where they obviously were needed. The movie was great.

If I had the choice to watch it a 3rd time in 2D or 3D I would go for 3D all the way, its one of those movies where it actually works and is not used "for the sake of it".

I refuse to pay almost the same price as a blu-ray, to watch a film that wasn't shot in 3D, at the cinema. Anyone who claims they can't tell the difference in terms of picture quality, between 2D and these post-production 3D converted films, needs their eyesight testing. The conversion process vastly reduces the picture quality.

Since my last post, my local Cineworld have expanded the number of screens showing Thor in 2D, whilst reducing the number of 3D showings. Which is a good thing.

Caught the late preview last night. First understand that I've been looking forward to a worthwhile Thor movie since I was in Jr. High, and I'm now 61. That said -

HEMSWORTH!! IS!!! THOR!!!!!

This is one of the comic stories that could have gone dreadfully wrong, but it didn't. Chris Hemsworth nails Thor to the wall and the rest of the cast keeps up. Now all I can think of is what an epic battle they could make out of Thor vs. Hulk :)

Bring on Cap!!

well. The movie was pretty bad tbh. I dont know, I did expect something different. Was annoying most of the time. And in the very end, what the hell, wasnt iron man supposed to be on this sequel too?

No he wasn't, although they drop some hints, I think at the end of Iron Man 2, Stark was still a bit reluctant, it was all Fury's game all along, and we'll see Thor and Stark clash in the Avengers probably

I finally got round to watching it (in 2D), I don't think it was one of Marvel's best. But it was still a decent film.

The cup scene was great. We also had a huge laugh over the huuble telescope for some reason.

Anyone know why they threw Hawkeye in?

Because Hawkeye is an integral part of the Avengers, and he's in the Avengers movie for next year, it's all part of Marvels in-universe mythos dealio they are doing for all the movies leading up to the Avengers.

I don't remember Iron Man ever being mentioned as being in this film?

He's a given ;)

For those looking, Hawkeye was the guy with a bow in the crane gondola while Thor was fighting off SHIELD agents.

I didn't pick up on that.. but that's a great catch.

The cube was

in a scene after the credits...

.

As far as the movie?

I enjoyed it.

The Art of Thor movie companion book features images of the artifacts from Odin's vault -- which plays a major role in the Marvel Studios' film -- and may offer hints of the ever expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe.

759846878.jpg

Confirmed:

Eternal Flame (top, left) - Mystical flame that cannot be extinguished. It was stolen from Surtur by Odin, Vili, and Ve Borson at the dawn of time so that Surtur could not light his sword and bring about Ragnarok.

Infinity Gauntlet (right) - The Infinity Gauntlet was designed to hold six of the 'soul gems', better known as the Infinity Gems. When used in combination their already impressive powers made the wearer nearly invincible.

Warlock's Eye (bottom, center) - A powerful, mystical weapon used unsuccessfully against Odin, Thor and the Warriors Three during an invasion of Asgard.

Twilight Sword (not pictured) - Created by Surtur using the energy of the exploding home galaxy of the Korbinites, it was intended to set the universe afire. Later used as a power source by Loki & Morgan Le Fay.

Casket of Ancient Winters (not pictured) - Can reproduce the overwhelming frigidity of Niffleheim. It contains the fury of a thousand killing winters.

Rumored:

Orb of Agamotto (top, left center) - A scrying crystal ball used by Doctor Strange for clairvoyance. It has been known to open gateways between dimensions

Tablet of Life & Time (top, right center) - On the tablet was a biochemical formula for a serum, the so-called Lifeline Formula, which could rejuvenate, heal and grant its user the chance to reach the full evolutionary potential of its race turning the user into an immortal near omnipotent being.

      draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics.
