It’s hard to get a really exciting synopsis, which is why I never get too excited or dismayed when reading one. That said, the official synopsis for Thor: The Dark World has dropped and zzzzzzzzzzz.

Marvel’s “Thor: The Dark World” continues the big-screen adventures of Thor, the Mighty Avenger, as he battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself. In the aftermath of Marvel’s “Thor” and “Marvel’s The Avengers,” Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos…but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.

We’ll be able to see if the film is a bit more exciting when it gets released in just over a years time.
