It's set a bit after the events in The Avengers and it was pretty good, but personally I liked the first Thor better. I think the plot was a bit slow since the movie mainly focused on humour and action. It also seemed a bit cheap because there was a lot of stuff to do with dark matter, portals and black holes and at times these portals were just conveniently used for our heroes to escape or whatever. The actors are still great and the visual effects were simply amazing, so it was definitely a good film but I reckon they could have done a lot more with it.
And I saw it at this cool drive-in theatre in Blacktown. It's pretty cool because they make it all retro, with a diner and everything! And each car space has a hump at the end for you to hoist up your car on an angle so the screen looks better. It was pretty good quality (the sound comes from a radio station) except that it started raining halfway in and that was a bit bothersome. But yes, definitely worth a try, and it's only $20 per car!
Also, my brother bought me this card game called Top Trumps Disney Pixar. There are other themes for it, for example he also bought Top Trumps Simpsons and Plop Trumps, a version specifically on different animals'...fecal matters... (ew).
But yeah I really like the Disney Pixar version. The Top Trumps idea is basically they get a theme and they have all these stats on it. So for Disney Pixar they have stuff like Size and Strength, Hero Rating, etc. and the Simpsons one has IQ, Prone to Mayhem, etc. while the Plop Trumps has stuff like Smell and Yuck Factor. It's pretty cool because you get to compare stats between players and all that and I'm even thinking of getting the Disney Classics version so I can have all the princesses and heroes hehe.
And speaking of games, there's another card game called Oz Fluxx which is my favourite game so far!
It's similar to Top Trumps in that the original idea is Fluxx, and there are a lot of variants on it with different themes, like Pirate Fluxx, Star Fluxx, etc. The Oz Fluxx has a Wizard of Oz theme and since I love the Wizard of Oz, I really love this theme. And the artwork is really fantastic too!
But the reason it's my favourite game is because it's so chaotic and unique. The rules and goals of the game are always changing (hence the flux) so much so that at any one point in time there's probably a 0% chance that you can say for sure whether you are winning or losing. You absolutely can't keep tabs on what's going on and, to add to the chaos, new players can join at ANY TIME during the game. It's so chaotic that sometimes you put a card down and you don't even realise that you've won!
I also just got my wisdom tooth removed today!
I was quite nervous going in but it was all nice and dandy, no major issues except there wasn't much space so the dental specialist had to keep dividing the tooth up. I think normally they divide it in four pieces, but here they divided it into about 6 or 8.
Since it was only one tooth I just had local anaesthetic, not general so I didn't go crazy and high haha! But I did have problems drinking afterwards since stuff kept dribbling out of the right side of my mouth and I looked so silly since half my mouth was drooping!
And now the anaesthetic's wearing off so it's getting a bit sore but I suppose not that bad...
Anyway, more updates to come!
Until next time and happy holidays!
