‘Thor: The Dark World’
The Marvel Comics god returns to face off against vicious dark elves. Chris Hemsworth really kills in this role, and with that we get a fun, exciting action movie that’s a nice balance of comedy and mythic violence. Also included is the Marvel One-Shot “All Hall the King,” with Ben Kingsley returning as The Mandarin from “Iron Man 3.” Sir Ben is the same boozy awesomeness, and the short does a lot to move forward his story, but I’ll say no more so as not to spoil. (DVD, $29.99; Blu-ray, $32.99; Blu-ray 3-D/Blu-ray/DVD combo, $39.99)
