I'm only nitpicking what the nitpickers will and have already nitpicked. This movie already has my money.

The bold part makes the rest of your post irrational.



The entire success of this movie hinges on whether or not Thor wears his helmet. Prepare yourself.

We're just repeating what negative nellies have said about the previous trailer and the Super Bowl spot. This is actually a public service. When the naysayers return and spout the same old criticisms, just give them a link back to these posts where we parroted all of their best (worst) lines. We said it already so they don't have to!

Bit o' little known Trivia:
Thor's Helmet is actually called Zeitgeist.

No, it depends on whether or not Thor is shown stronger than Hulk. The general audience must know the truth, or they won't enjoy the movie!

Correct. We should bring a checklist and count how often these points will be repeated.

A checklist is a great idea. It will remind the Nellies that we've heard it all before, ad nauseam. But we'd better not make it a drinking game because we would all end up with alcohol poisoning after the first few pages.

If a point and its reverse crop up in consecutive posts, we have to have an Iron Man longdrink. After we've stopped laughing.
