Thor wasn't as good as people say but it sure wasn't as bad as that review says.

People are retarded. AO Scott did not give Thor a bad review. He said the marketing push that Marvel is doing with their films is bad, not the film itself. Sheesh!

That's exactly what he's trying to say. Problem is, the way he chose to say it makes him sound like a total wanker. Which I'm sure he is.

But Thor was utterly 'meh'. So I have to agree with the cock.

Thor had too many things going for it to be meh. The sheer epicness of Asgard right out of Kirby and Simonson, the all-around great cast (minus Jar-Jar Dennings), the humor (give me a horse!), the special effects (the Destroyer turning around layer by layer)... Yes, the story could have used another 20 to 30 minutes, I wasn't too impressed with Volstagg, Kat Dennings didn't add anything to the movie, and I'm really fucking tired of S.H.I.E.L.D...
But that still leaves me with a 8.5 out of 10.

But back to Green Lantern:

First review.

Green lantern joins "Makeminemilk"-campaign :

Rupert Grint, Ryan Reynolds join 'milk' campaign

Rupert Grint and Ryan Reynolds have become the latest celebrities to sign up to front the 'make mine milk' campaign.
The two actors have been unveiled as the new faces, and will appear with the iconic 'milk moustache' on posters and thousands of buses across the UK from today.
The Harry Potter and Green Lantern stars follow celebrities including Usher, the cast of The A-Team, Pixie Lott, The Wanted, Tess Daly, Jenson Bunton and Elle Macpherson in fronting the campaign


"I come from a big family and my mum always made sure we had lots of milk to drink as kids. It's low in fat, refreshing and good for you, and really tasty too," Grint said. "Nowadays I still have milk with cereal for breakfast and always try to pick up a milky cappuccino when I'm on set or on a photo shoot - it's important to get your daily dose of milk."

The 22-year-old also completed the challenge of drinking a pint of low-fat milk as fast as he could - doing so in a respectable 20 seconds.

Created by the Milk Marketing Forum, the campaign aims to "revive the nation's love" for milk.

Grint will appear in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part Two, which opens July 15, while Reynolds stars in The Green Lantern, which opens June 17.

I like the "White Magic" tagline on the Grint pic.

Direct quote...."This movie is not distinctively bad, it is axiomatically bad."

And the axiom in question was the marketing campaign.
