Norwich tomorrow, Wednesday. Come if you're in the area. I am still very happy about A Mayse-Bikhl.
In the meantime—
Allowing for the fact that it makes a blended crack pretzel of Norse mythology, Kenneth Branagh's Thor (2011) is a surprisingly enjoyable movie. Its major fault is how quickly all the pieces spin by, the feeling that there should be more of it—which I suppose is going to be The Avengers (2012), but I would happily have watched Chris Hemsworth culture-shock his way around New Mexico for another half-hour, or Tom Hiddleston do pretty much anything. ( Well, I guess that's worth a look. ) The fact that I am talking about seeing the sequel at all is more than I expected. My summer blockbuster of choice this year is still, I think, Captain America—which I need to write up—but I avoided this one in theaters because I knew Marvel Comics wasn't the Poetic Edda, and it is possible I made a mistake. Either that, or I'm under somebody's malign influence. It's a chaotic system.
I hope I can get some sleep.
