I wouldn't mind seeing this for Natalie Portman. She's probably my second favorite modern actress. I don't think I need to tell you who the first is lol. I thought the first movie was pretty good, but nothing special.

Blake's blog just reminded me that I saw Thor: The Dark World in the campus theater on Thursday, and unlike the first Thor, which was my least favorite of the Marvel movies pre-Avengers, it was awesome.
The humor worked for me much more often than not, the action looked good, although I can never get rid of my production-educated brain constantly going "green screen, green screen, CGI ... that's real, though ... oooh, is that a matte painting?" particularly in a certain escape scene.
Also, Loki is deliciously evil and gets a lot of great one-liners, as does the science assistant woman and her intern. There's even kind of a subplot involving scientist guy that heads the team and was possessed in The Avengers running around in his underwear a lot.
The flick doesn't take itself too seriously and is just a grand ol' time at the movies.
Having said that, I couldn't give you a plot synopsis other than dark elves/energy and Family Ties/romance were involved
Shut your brain off and go watch it, say I.
I was going to say something else, but forgot.
