THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till release

Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

I did as well when I saw it...absolutely fantastic.
 
Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

I'm not too familiar with Thor, but that looked pretty damn good.
 
Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

Everything in the Comic-con piece looked great, except for Thor. The actor didn't seem to have the weight and presence that Thor needs.

Although, he had so few lines in the trailer that it would be silly to judge it already. It does seem a bit shady that he isn't shown all that much in the trailer. It is a movie about Thor right?
 
Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

I've watched it now several times and just think it's awesome. As I thought Kenneth Brannagh seems to understand the character and the universe he's in very well. Chris Hemsworth looks excellent and seems to be modeled after the Ultimates version of the character. I thought Hemsworth has a great presence as Thor but to each their own I suppose. I suppose those creatures are Frost Giants that I assume Loki tricked his half brother into releasing in some battle that opens the movie but that's just a guess on my part. Interested to see if the Captain America trailer will be able to match or top this. Agent Caulson is becoming a favorite character of mine.

I have to admit, I've had my doubts, but that looks pretty spectacular. Love to see Agent Coulson is getting time! :lol: And so stoked to learn that Colm Feore is in the film! Canada represents! :D
 
Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

Colm Feore is indeed awesome. Basically good at every role he plays. I think Loki looks sinister in a subtle way and am interested in seeing how his arc plays out in this film. l
 
Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

Colm is also the nicest, most gracious guy on the planet. Super cool dude.

Re: a scene in the Thor trailer:

Those SHIELD agents would have run like hell if they faced an army tank. Instead, they faced the Destroyer and tried to talk the metal monster into surrendering. Can you say intelligence failure?
 
Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

I'm going to spoil the ending now. Thor defeats the Destroyer, moves to New York, joins the Avengers and learns to love pizza.

Clearly they've never seen THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL.

(But it looks like Branagh has!)
 
Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

So Greg, are you going to be writing the novel for this one too?
 
Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

Oh that would be awesome. I've already been thinking about the novelizations for "Thor", "Captain America: First Avenger" , "X-Men:First Class", and "Green Lantern".

I would gladly write the novelizations of any or all of the above! Not to mention GHOST RIDER 2.

At the moment, however, my phone is not ringing . . . .
 
Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

Haha y'know Greg for as quickly as you post here sometime, when DO you find time to write novels? LOL I kid, I kid. Cool to have ya here.

Y'know what IS kind of interesting, in the teaser trailer, I'm hearing a hint of Ramin Djwadi's style of soundtrack in there. Think Marvel hired him for Thor? I really loved his Iron Man soundtrack and was kind of disappointed it wasn't in Iron Man 2.

Although that line at the end with Coulson, "Is it one of Stark's?" "How should I know, guy never tells me anything." kind of cracked me up. That's what I love about a shared movie-verse, you can have little tidbits like that. Just makes it feel like these movies, as great as they are, are only a small part of the whole story.

Hey, I need to procrastinate somehow . . . :)
 
Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

i really can't wait for may next year...

hope the Cap teaser thingy leaks too!
 
Re: THOR-starts shooting Jan2010: Updates, Rumors & Casting till relea

I read something that said to expect a "Captain America: First Avenger" trailer by the end of the year. I'm sure the Cap comic con teaser will leak eventually...although the panel description of it stated it was short since they basically have been shooting for a couple of weeks.
