Thor
May 6th, Go to any decent theater
Hey, it's the next big action movie for the Summer Thor
It starts May 6th and I couldn't be more thrilled for it to come out. Marvel is building a impressive contuinity unlike DC in movie form. This action packed epic might be the Summer's best movie with huge fights, action and silly old Loki scheming something.
Go to any decent theater
