While I appreciate the performers and aspects of X-Men, there are parts of it that bugged the ever-living crap out of me - like not using the actual, original X-Men (Havoc and Darwin? Angel as a chick? Really, guys?). There's too much built into the X-Men movie franchise to try and start it as a new franchise, no matter how often Marvel retcons its books. Way, way more hyped than it deserves.

Thor, on the other hand, isn't a wildly beloved character, by and large, and it managed to make a less-known character relate-able, lay out an origination story, and build on a broad-ranging arc while managing to stand on its own.
