    Thor: worth seeing, but not for $10 (matinee price, too!). If you do go, there is a little surprise after the credits roll. Oh, and I won't say who or when, but another new Avenger makes an appearance.

    Adding some additional thoughts on Thor, I it suffered from not enough, well, Thor. Only two scenes show him at full power. I had a similar complaint about the first Iron Man, but that movie was infinitely more entertaining. Better story, better villain, better action.

    Mrs. Coco and I just rented this. Great story ... even though we knew the ending, we were riveted.

    Highly recommended

    Saw "Meek's Cutoff." OK, hate Westerns but went with fiance who likes them. It's very slow. I guess it has nice scenery and Michelle Williams isn't too bad. All the nice things I can say.

    Another thing about Thor that has me insanely curious: I stayed through the credits and one thing I noticed was they gave special thanks to Ralph Macchio. I can't for the life of me figure out why they wanted to thank Daniel LaRusso, but I really want to know why.

    I don't rewatch movies often, but I rewatched 'Scott Pilgrim.'
    I love that movie.

    Better villain? Yikes. Did we ever see that differently.

    Overall, the first Iron Man was definitely better, but I thought Loki was the better character and the better performance by the actor than Iron Monger, though I liked both.

    The new Avenger isn't much of a secret if you follow such things. The name of the actor and the character have been on IMDB for months. That said, if I didn't know who that was, I'd be wondering what the hell he was doing in that scene and what the point was of him choosing that weapon.

    Bridesmaids.

    A lot of guys are probably gonna sleep on this movie, but that's a huuuuuge mistake. It was hilarious. Granted, I'll laugh at just about anything, but there was a line toward the end of the movie that had me in tears.

    You're sure that wasn't because weddings make you cry?

    I saw this on Friday and agree that it's incredibly funny. I would have had no interest, but it was running about a 90% on rottentomatoes and it absolutely lived up to that for me. The three scenes that stand out for me are the post-Brazilian food scene, the airplane one and the driving in the car numerous times past the cop one.
