miiiiild spoilers? like, nothing specific, but more the character arcs/theme of the movies
(Anonymous) 2012-07-16 12:13 am (UTC)(link)Thor is more fantasy, while Captain America is typical action movie fare.
Where both stories shine, is in the characters and their relationships.
Captain America is a goody two-shoes who goes through rough times but who is incorruptible. The whole movie is about him triumphing against evil and making friends who accept him. AND WAR AGAINST THE NAZIS RAWR.
Thor is arrogant, but kindhearted. He does not realize that his actions have consequences for the people he cares about, and the whole movies is about him learning humility and true inner strength (as opposed to beating the crap out of everything to solve issues).
Thor focuses more on Thor's family and Thor's relationship with the love interest.
So it depends on what kind of escapism is more your thing. :P
I personally loved Captain America and found Thor numbingly predictable, but I enjoyed both and don't regret watching either.
What really ruined Thor for me, was the scenery. The buildings in Asgard were so obviously impossible in real life, that I could never forget that I was watching a movie with fake background.
It was easier for me to suspend my disbelief for Captain America, because it took place in Earth.
