Quote: I thought the Asgardians looked good, and all were fun and well defined for the size/importance of their roles. Heimdall certainly looked imposing, as any good guardsman should. I liked Thor's helmet for the one scene it showed up in. My one complaint is that the woman who played Sif is very attractive, but the way they designed her look she seemed more like she was there to play sports than be the goddess of war. She was just a little too practical looking with her simple, tightly pulled-back hair, which certainly makes sense but "practicality" wasn't the watchword for any of the other godly designs. She needed a little more "oomph".Heh heh...take note Hollywood. Visionary demands more boob. Mmmhehemheh. You are correct though. I bet 10-1 you could design a better Sif costume. Didn't the Destroyer look awesomely awesome though? Quote: Perhaps in any sequel they will play up her relationship with Thor and pull back on the kid-sister vibe they gave her this time out.I was so wanting them to "pan to Sif frowning" when Thor finally kissed Jane. Didn't happen. Was bummed. Quote: Quote: The post-credits sequence offers a direct lead-in to the Avengers movie, reveals that Loki might be behind the formation of the team, and sets up a potential tie-in from the Captain America movie too. Another "Oh my!" ending.Quote: I liked that one, and I think the addition of Loki to it put a lot more meat on the bone than the Fury-centric ones of the past.Yeah, the only thing that would have made it more "oh-my" would have been an appearance by Janet Van-Dyne. We live in hope. Quote: Overall, however, I really enjoyed the film myself even if I found it a bit ramshackle in construction. I've read that Branagh sent a letter to the award-winning actress who apparently played the owner of the New Mexico diner, apologizing for her role being cut out of the film completely.I wonder who she is.
