Thor 2

I watched it. Spoilers may be below, but I'll cut them as best I can!

So I didn't know anything about the movie going into it. I saw the first one, I saw Avengers - but yeah I followed along great and I thought it was a fine movie. Good times!

I have to say, I had a bit of a surreal experience though. There are many scenes that take place here in London, so I was watching with the hometown crowd, lol. I've never had that before. I've never watched a movie in a city that was actually part of a movie. So when all the little nods to London happened, everyone laughed and got the in-joke (like, yeah, every Londoner has done THAT lol), and I don't think you'd get that same sort of reaction from audiences in other cities. I was glad to have experienced that.

Okay so, what was the deal with themid-credit scene? I thought maybe it was a joke and I was watching an old episode of Doctor Who or something. The set and props looked very cheap, the pink painted lady was very green lady from Star Trek - even the frame rate looked like I was watching on a PAL tv or something. I'm pretty sure the Aether was just a black box with red tape on it. I did a bit of research and read that a different director shot it and it was included against the film director's wishes. But nothing ever seems to mention the lack of quality in this scene. I'm sure I didn't imagine it....

If anyone here watches it and notices this too, let me know that I'm not crazy, please.
