    One thing I noticed. Someone must have done something wrong lots of her flesh is covered up and the breast plate actually looks like it might be useful... someone really needs to learn how female armour classes work...

    This is 100% true, there are "Trailer Gurus" who exist entirely to make trailers for films they've not worked on. They may give it a cursory watch and get a gist of the plot, but more often one of their subordinates watches the "product" and they just oversee the "placement".
    It explains why films like the fast and the furious films can still look slightly appealing in the trailers when the films have suck to the utter low that have now reached.

    Urgh remember the rise of the silver surfer trailer? It was the whole film. The film itself was the trailler plus about 90mins of filler..

    Yup. Or the Simpsons movie, which had a 6 minute trailer which ruined the punchline of 2/3rds of the jokes.

    Spot on. I remember Pegg and Frost being interviewed about one of their films (Paul, I think) and saying they had absolutely no input whatsoever on trailers and advertising and were somewhat miffed that the trailers didn't really accurately portray their film.

    Until she gets her own film, yes. Seriously though I'm really looking forward to Thor 2 regardless of Sif screentime. Plus it looks like Frigga gets to be bad arse for a bit at least so yay.

    I laughed a lot at Jane slapping Loki, his reaction was priceless. Ah I can't wait to see this movie. The first was enjoyable, but really mediocre compared to most of the other Phase I films.

    I wouldn't call it mediocre personally, it was hamstrung by being 'god versus god in a vicious fight to the de..oh right gods' but it was entertaining and fun. Better than The Incredible Hulk anyway and roughly level with Captain America.
