We both agreed this was a great family film but intended ...

Enjoy Thor: Ragnarok Like It’s Meant to Be Seen

When we moved last year I went through and upgraded all of our televisions. One of the big things I treated myself to was a 55-inch 4k television. It was a serious upgrade from the 36-inch tube television we had been watching. A HUGE upgrade. Instantly I could tell the difference. The picture was much larger and it was crisp! It was as if I was having a movie theater experience in our own living room! Now, when new movies come out, we only watch them in our family room. Today, Thor: Ragnarok ...
