Saw it at midnight in IMAX 3D, only cost me 4 bucks so I thought I'd see it in 3D. The 3D was terrible and honestly takes away from what is a rather entertaining movie. The whole time I was like "fuck I should have just seen this in IMAX, the 3D is ruining the experience for me". So, pretty good action movie with a really quick pace. If you try to get TO into it you'll probably find yourself going "but wtf?", so don't it's a goddamn Marvel Comic Book movie.
Do not see thor in 3d!

I normally don't go see things in 3d, like I said it only cost me like 4 bucks so I thought I'd give it another shot. I'm pretty over it though, unless it's animated because Toy Story 3 was amazing in 3d imo.

Agreed. They can take that shiny cheap looking plastic they are putting on electronics now with it.

I have seen some good and some bad. Avatar was brilliant in 3D, so was Legend of the Guardians.

Agreed with Avatar... well not brilliant, but just that it made it better. The actual movie wasn't very good, but at least the visuals and 3D all worked quite well.

I don't watch anything in 3D. 3D movies are a joke & will cause long term problems with your eyesight. I'm actually surprised 3D displays are selling as well as they are. Many of those people will be in for a big surprise in a couple years.

I didn't like the 3D with Thor much because the glasses make the films darker. It doesn't seem like they take this into account much with regard to turning up the brightness, so it just feels like I'm watching a movie with sunglasses on the entire time. It also doesn't help that I already wear glasses, so the 3D glasses fit rather awkwardly around them.
I didn't notice any beneficial 3D scenes in Thor though. I've mentioned it before, but the best example of 3D that I've seen in the theater was actually a little demo reel for RealD 3D with this ball that floated "off" of the screen and out toward you. Most 3D only seems like a pop-up book to me... things are only slightly off-set compared to the stuff in the background, and they don't always use it to reflect movement between the background and the foreground (the foreground being the area created by the 3D effect).
They also really need to stop trying to use 3D to make it look like something is coming right at you. I believe the latest Resident Evil: Afterlife movie did this with the fight scene in the shower room (the axe being thrown), and the problem with it is that you aren't fully immersed because of being able to easily see the edges of the screen. In that way, the object is usually cut off before it looks like it will actually reach you.

IMO:
I don't think it was a cube, it was just a small segment of captured energy from Odin, i.e. lightning.

You're most likely wrong. They put in teasers to the next Marvel movie coming out, which iirc is Captain America, no?
