Well, Marvel has already successfully established the more outrageous "otherworldly" elements with the Avengers stuff. It wasn't hard for me to go with it. I'm an unabashed lover of this film. My fave of the three. Admittedly Marvel did pull a huge bait and switch with the Manderin. But didn't bother me because im not much of a comic fanboy/purist.
