Men with long hair, and Natalie Portman

I'm more excited about this than I am about Iron Man 3, and not just because of the presence of Natalie Portman. The first Thor was wildly uneven, but it had a sense of fun about how people might deal with a superhero from another world in their midst. This installment appears to be more about evoking mythology from the comics and the rivalry between Thor and Tom Hiddleston's Loki, yet I choose to be optimistic. Here's my review (which needed a proofreader) of Kenneth Branagh's Thor.
