He's the what in The First Avenger? Holy crap. I mean, a beard and a wig and weird prosthetics tend to hide a guy, but still, I never would have thought that was the son of Thror.

I hate Blackbolt SO much.

It's easy to ignore the "royal" part and focus on the "family," there. That might be my own affection for Thor and his supporting cast in general, and the charisma of the actual performers in the films, though.

You can when you're made of orange rocks!

And also to drop a mountain on NYC and commit genocide, but hey, who's counting those?

I would disagree that it's more dramatic - the real world is full of terrifying drama, for instance - but I know its just kind of short hand, and plays off of myths and fairytales and stuff.

Oh he is, he's the ever-lovin' blue-eyed Thing, beloved by dint of his sheer personality and being part of Marvel's first family, but he still needs to wear a huge trenchcoat and fedora when going out in public, lest he alarms some less enlightened folks.

Just to clarify, when I said "all the tickets," I meant ALL the tickets.

No, he can fly and has super-strength and stuff too. He's not just more boring than Black Canary, he's much, much more powerful than her. And super dull. Did I mention how bland he is and what terrible decisions he makes?

You give me two hours of Lockjaw 'porting around the universe, dragging Ben Grimm to trouble spots, and I will buy all the tickets.

"Royal Family." Like, I know that the last nine months or so have proven that democracy doesn't work, but I honestly do not fucking care about royal families.

He's the only character with any presence or charisma.

Wow, that alien culture on the moon looks so generic and boring. Not even a single forehead alien to break up the dull colors and dull expressions.

We watched Millenium religiously in college entirely because of Henriksen, and we used to alternate doing his voice and quoting the show all the time.

"It's my gift.

No Fucking Way. I mean, obviously, Time Bandits. But you also have to mention Quest of the Delta Knights. And Time After Time, of course. And Penny Dreadful. And… I could keep going. I'll shut up now. I know you got this, Will.

Aw, man, that makes me happy. I dig on David Warner so much.

Yeah, it's weird, because he's in plenty of R rated films, but I had trouble imagining him swearing.

It's those kind of reactions that keep me coming back to these articles, even when I'm not as well versed in a particular actor's ouevre as I should be.
