Well Hello There

Alright......so

After speaking with my Muse earlier today, and reading his blog post about the adventure he had trying to come down and visit me this past weekend, I have decided to start my own Blog for multiple purposes.

A) I can vent about all the shit that is annoying me
B) I can inform people about upcoming plans in Thor's World
C) I can post current projects that I am working on that pertain to the Circle and tangents of said Circle

So...that being said, Welcome to Thor's Blog, or a means of informing the masses of the conquests, victories and successes of the God of Thunder.

By the way, before people start raging (If anyone even reads this blog besides the people I am going to be designing it for) I know that I am not really Thor, which isn't to say that I don't wish I was. I am actually a simple man, however I have been deemed the Thor for my group of friends, dispensing rage and justice to where it needs to be dispensed. I will try to update this blog roughly once every week, probably on a Wednesday while I have nothing better to do in my rock History class. I can promise people at least one angry rant a blog, so the rage will be plentiful.

Now that formalities are out of the way, the only real update I have for this week is that I had my two first college exams today, Calculus made me cry, but Anthropology was a joke. With only an American Literature exam next week, I am pretty sure I am going to have a nice relaxing time from here on out, that is until my next set of exams.

Anyway, time for my first angry rant.....and it's targeted at....*drum roll*

DISNEY!!!!!!!

Alright, First I can say that I actually enjoy the things that Disney produced. That is of course, if you are referring to the Golden Age of Disney in the 90's, the time of my childhood. I remember weekdays after school, coming home, eating a Nutrigrain Bar, and sitting down in front of one of my favorite Disney movies, such as Aladin and Hercules, but it seemed like towards the end of the 90's, Disney was losing it's magic. Maybe because the company was quickly losing track of it's values, or maybe it was because I realized that crushing human skulls with my bar hands was a much better application of my free time than watching stories about a spoiled rotten dog who hooks up with a dirty tramp (HAHA Disney, I cee wut u did thar)

But now it seems like Disney has fallen quite far from the pedestal it once sat upon. What I once viewed as an entertaining company who produced quality work, now has become a little troll living in a mountain by himself obsessing over the one little slice of happiness it has left, maybe in the form of a ring...

NO...BAD THOR....WE SHALL NOT SULLY THE LORD OF THE RINGS BY COMPARING GOLLUM TO DISNEY....That's too good for them anyway, or giving them too much credit. Take your pick.

The company truly has fallen from grace. You know your time has passed when instead of making money based off of quality works of creativity that gave my childhood hope and happiness, and I'm sure other children as well, your two biggest cash cows as a company are the daughter of a washed up, one-hit-wonder country music artist who looks like a horse, and a band consisting of three brothers who produce the quality of music you would expect from a J-Pop band from Germany (Here's looking at you Tokyo Hotel). Lately, all the company can claim is producing a continuous amount of shit on the Disney channel, and buying out one of my last sources of hope and happiness in the world, Marvel.

That's right folks, the same company that produces Miley Cyrus shit and a new Disney channel movie every week where Zach Efron attempts to rally his school behind him to win the homecoming game for some obscure reason now controls the rights to all of my favorite comics. So...here are the coming changes we can expect in our favorite Marvel comics: no bad guy is ever going to die again, even the unnamed henchmen from page 7 panel 4 (you know which one I am talking about), all of the heroes will be toned down to be as child friendly and PC as Disney thinks they should be, and most of the plots will consist of the bad guys stealing all the cupcakes from the blind orphans in the upscale orphanage (poverty doesn't exist in Disney's eyes), and only Thor and his spectacular completely PC group of token minority friends are able to get them back.
All in all, say goodbye to everything that was awesome about Marvel.

I hope Disney, as a whole, swallows a knife. Once they do, I will launch the corporate headquarters into the sun so that we may be free of their taint forever.

*phew*

Not bad for my first rant if I do say so myself. Anyway folks, duty calls. I have to go defend the Halls of Valhalla (or go do American Literature homework and write the next chapter of the CiA, take your pick).

Take Care
