5. What's Going On With Thor & Jane Foster?
Easily one of the lamest things in the entire MCU is the relationship development (or lack thereof) between Thor and Jane Foster. They basically kiss out of nowhere in the first film, and Natalie Portman doesn't appear in The Avengers - instead being moved to a safehouse off-screen - so Thor: The Dark World has a
lot of groundwork to lay if we're ever going to believe this romantic entanglement. We know from the trailers that Jane ends up going to Asgard, and is also kidnapped by Malekith the Accursed, so presumably it's going to be the whole "damsel in distress" shtick once more. Still, presumably the beginning of the movie will bring us up to speed on what place their relationship is at; were things put on hold when Thor had to deal with The Battle of New York and all the ensuing fallout with Loki, or are they now playing happy families? And do we really care
that much?
