Saturdie

That weekends lend me little time and space to myself is no secret and that is exactly what Saturday had planned for me.

Right, new movie in town that too a superhero movie and I've been mentioning for a while especially after Batman vs superman how I'm done with crappy superhero movies, which is why I made no talks about watching the new Thor Ragnorak..and here's where this gets hilarious; the fact that a 'superhero' movie has just released and that I've been calmer than the Dead Sea about watching it was thought of as a some sort of marital examination wherein a spouse keeps quiet about what they want and the other half is supposed to conjure out of thin air those expectations and that is exactly what happened, for today morning I was exuberantly informed about how two tickets for new Thor had been booked.
I protested, said I wasn't interested in superhero movies, that I'm done with marvel and the likes, but the more I protested the more elaborate did the schemes become.
From online booking of popcorns and drinks to dinner reservations and the like and I was left wondering what part of 'I'm not interested' had been misinterpreted or even misunderstood?

Well all in good jest because let me tell you one thing, that this Thor movie was absolutely the best thing to come out of Marvel.
Yessir, far better than any of their movies and The last couple weeks I've fallen back into loving watching films in theatres, for that was my one true love but I had started losing it after a streak of bad movies, but the discovery of an IMAX near my house coupled with a string of fabulous movies has made me realise that this was the one thing I absolutely lived for.

Right, Thor Ragnorak is well made in all aspects. It's hilarious with a tight script, great music, excellent acting, great character balance, sets, affects and a complete newness.
I thought it'd be the same old drum being beaten to death, but pleasantly surprised how different and fresh it was constructed.
There was this weird sense of old school video games to it and the director played on to that and it was executed flawlessly. Did I mention it was seriously funny. (Oxymoron in case you were looking for it) The kind of movie that's a fun watch where you can immerse with no knowledge of anything from this universe and yet have a great time. There wasn't a single dull moment and its 3D was superb as well.

I think I'm glad I watched it and there's Hulk in it too and for some reason he's morphed into Shrek for me and I can't seem to shake it off.
Funny!

But here's thing, how did thee guess I'll be watching it? Hmm, haha. Well..

that's today, let's see tomorrow.
