Thor is the mighty god of thunder; he is the prince in his realm Asgard and as he is about to be proclaimed king, when frost giants interrupt by breaching into Asgard and trying to steal. Thor arrogance sends him in a revenge rage and uses the wormhole to go to the frost giants' realm to attack. His father is outraged that the truce has been broken and Thor gets exiled from Asgard to Earth where he finds it hard to live without his powers.

He eventually falls in love with a scientist called Jodie Foster and hears of the trouble his brother is causing in Asgard as he has become the new king of Asgard due to their fathers sudden illness.

Thor becomes more motivated to find a way to get his powers back, along with powers come Thor's mighty hammer. But when Loki discovers Thor has reabsorbed his powers he starts to act irrationally and sends a war machine from Asgard to Earth to destroy Thor and anything else in its path, will Thor find a way to stop Loki.

Watchmen (2009)

Credit

Watchmen is set in 1985, where superheroes exist and wars between nations leave the city in a dark lifestyle. It starts with the death of Edward Blake who is beaten up in his house and then thrown of out his window after a brutal battle.

One of his colleagues Rorschach discovers that Blake is the Comedian and comes to the theory that someone is trying to take out the Watchmen. he tries to warn the other retired Watchmen before its too late.

I personally believe that the trailers made the film seem more epic than it is. Also the length of the film drags on, as the storyline contains lots of dialogue.

Iron-Man 2 was immediately announced production by Marvel, after the success of Iron-Man in May 2008, being the second part of a trilogy. The plot starts with the world finding out that Iron-Man is Tony Stark. The news hits Russia where Ivan Vanko hears Iron-Man's true identity after the death of his father and starts to build his own arc reactor.

It is then followed by the government trying to force Stark Industries to hand over his technology to them, Tony Stark refuses by proving that competitors that are trying to copy this technology are decades behind.

The palladium core in the arc reactor that powers his armour and keeps him alive is slowly poisoning his blood. Stark starts to become reckless and reacts without thinking as he fails to find a replacement to keep him alive, and choosing to not tell anyone about his condition makes life harder for him.

Vanko attacks Stark during a formula one race, using his own reactor which powers whip like energy weapons, Stark defeats Vanko and learns his origins and also that Vanko is the son of his father's old arc project, although Vanko is captured, is it over?
