Truth be told I look forward to the new Marvel Studios films more than most things that I enjoy these days. As an almost lifelong comic book fan, and a Marvel one, its been great to watch these characters fleshed out and entertaining the masses in the most bombastic of ways. The latest one is “Thor: Love and Thunder” which opens today in theaters everywhere and we’ve discussed this film before with trailer and promotional poster narratives. The curious can check those posts out by clicking HERE. As is my usual practice, I’ve included some updated artwork, the premise and casting along with some additional art. Are you ready for “Thor: Love and Thunder”?

PiercingMetal Thoughts: It’s without question that I am excited about this film and especially after all the stops that were pulled out during “Doctor Strange in The Multiverse of Madness”. Can we hope for similar cameos like that film or alternate variants of these characters? Who knows. I wish that I could see it today or in the early times on the weekend but I’ve a loaded schedule for the next few days and it might be Monday the earliest if I go. Some friends went last night and I only asked them to tell me how many bonus scenes there were. I was told there are two so you can bide your need to visit the loo once the film ends. The trailers for this one find me thinking this will be a worthy installment to an already amazing universe of characters. Closing up I wonder what you all think. Are you seeing this one early? Chime in down below and as always please no spoilers if you choose to comment. See you next time, please keep safe out there.
