THOR: THE DARK WORLD!



SO....

Unless you've been living under a rock you may have noticed that Thor 2 was released. I mean how could you have not noticed, it's all anyone talking about!

Everywhere i look there is a Thor reference!

It all start a few weeks ago when the film was released. My friend and i were on our way to the theatre. It's 1 minute until our train and we our hurriedly walking down the the tube platform when i notice it.


It's only a massive Thor poster I see. But no time to marvel over it's greatness as our train has just arrived and were already slightly late. We get on the train and take a seat and who else could be sitting opposite us then some really loud, talkative, overexcited teenage boys, who seem to be extremely animated in there conversation and what else could they be talking about than the one the only THOR: THE DARK WORLD. Yep that right. Now I wasn't eavesdropping as it was kind of hard to ignore people when they are speaking REALLY LOUDLY! I'm sure the whole carriage was listening. Now here's me thinking this is all some weird coincidence but NO. The play we were seeing takes place in leicester square and it just so happens that a certain premiere for a certain hollywood blockbuster was happening here also! I know right what are the chances?!

This all happening was definitely enough to make me want to go and see the film but no apparently the universe thought i wasn't get the message. Over the next few weeks all anyone was talking about was Thor. The film was all over social media.

Youtube stars and radio 1 dj's dan and phil at the premiere.

Dan is a massive fan of Tom Hiddleston who plays Loki in the film.


Lots of other people have also taken to social media to express there views about the film and all i have heard is positive reviews usually ending in go see the film! It was a few days ago when i was on my way home that of course i see another poster and it has led me to the conclusion that I NEED TO SEE THIS FILM. So yep, it's on my to do list and i can't wait to see it!
