I never really knew much about Thor until the movies came out. I was actually pretty surprised/pleased that he was portrayed as the actual Thor: God of Thunder, and not just some guy with his hammer.

But I would agree with the quality, I think it's probably the best standalone Marvel movie outside of Ironman.

I found Adventures in Babysitting in the cheap DVD bin at superstore a while back, had to buy it and show the kids. They loved it more than I did the first time I saw it.

As for the final speech, I thought it was kind of cool, perhaps it will set up a deeper bond between Thor and Loki in future movies. It has a sort of Batman and Joker type feel to the movie relationship, like they need each other.
The way I understood the end scene between Loki (as Odin) and Thor was that Odin gave Thor his blessing to go to earth and be with Portman. This gets Thor back on earth to do Avengers 2 and with him out of the way Loki can put his plan to become king into action. But maybe I understood that completely wrong.

So there was a second after credits scene? Another one after The Collector scene?

This movie is what Thor 1 should have been. Surprised I enjoyed it as much as I did seeing how Thor 1, Iron Man 2, Iron Man 3, Captain America, Xmen First Class, and Amazing Spider-man have all been busts for me.

Yeah, but it was just [spoiler]Thor returning to earth and kissing his wifey.[/quote]. Kind of a waste.
