Thor vs donald blake?????

[bossman550]

What do guys think....... first of all should Donald Blake be in Thor or Avengers
second...... Should Thor and donald blake be played by same person????? If not who should play dr. Blake.

[Raiden]

Yes, same actor.

[bossman550]

yo think that would work one being small and criple and one being big and buff

[Carlo Comicus]

I don't thnik there's possibility for an other actor to play Don Blake role.

I would prefer two seperate actors to show Thor as a powerful Godlike creature wheras Blake should be very human like.

excellent: as you can see, both Thor and Blake share the same face, the only difference is the length of Thors hair

[Spider-Fan83]

I could almost see, Jesse Spencer, passing as a shorter, skinnier version of Hemsworth
(though he is a little older)

[bossman550]

excellent: as you can see, both Thor and Blake share the same face, the only difference is the length of Thors hair

but blake is small and weak.

[RockSP]

Different actor. Don't really want them to do the whole Superman thing.

"Oh you look just like Thor except you don't have long hair, and you walk with a limp. Can't possibly be the same guy."

[Doomed Hero Rising]

I want two different actors. It adds a change to the whole "secret identity" thing ya know?

[FaT_tONle]

If they go same actor it's a Clark Kent ripoff... do we really need a 6'3 ripped guy trying to act like a 5'9 crippled, frail human being. You want them to body double and CGI the whole thing throughtout the film? If they are faithful they'll use someone different... even if it's cheezy.

[Spider-Vader]

Same actor. It'd seem too Hulk like for Thor to be big & heroic, while Blake is weak & scrawny.

[TheComicbookKid]

If Marvel had the money, I say Benjamin Button it.

They might just have him crash as Thor and in the final Battle, he survives by inhabiting another person's body. We just see a comatose person's eye open.

In the Avengers, we have the person claiming to be a God, but no one believes him.

[Katsuro]

They should use the same actor. It shouldn't be hard to make the difference between Thor and Blake apparent. Use camera tricks to make him look smaller, obviously he'll have shorter hair, and if the actor does his job right, he'll seem like a completely different person, and yet still be enough of the same person for the audience to believe it. You gotta keep the audience invested in the character, and it's a bit tougher to do when he switches actors back and forth.

I mean, we can assume the movie will spend a decent amount of time with Thor as Blake, so I dont think they'll want some other actor playing their lead role for a large portion of the film.

[Vartha]

Well in the first draft while Thor's been banished to earth all Odin does is strip Thor of his godly powers and immortality and he doesn't hide the fact he calls himself Thor, nobody believes he IS a god which is the only HINT of Ulty Thor we see.
I can't say what happens in the future as to why Blake is involved. Haven't seen ANY of the newer Rewrites.

[MilkmanDan]

"Oh you look just like Thor except you don't have long hair, and you walk with a limp. Can't possibly be the same guy."

Personally I don't really want Thor to have a "secret identity". I was never particularly fond of his alter egos. If Blake needs to be in the movie, and I'm not sure he does, this is how I've previously suggested they handle it:

Have two different stories.One being the actual Asgard story and in the other Blake is being haunted by stange visions and dreams of his former life to the point where his friends and collegues think he's losing his mind. And finally he feels compelled to travel to a small Norwegian village and wander off in to the wilderness where he finds a cave. There he digs through the rubble with his bare hands until he finally -exhausted and with bloody hands- finds Mjolnir. And when he touches the hammer there's a bringht light and we see the final flashback from Asgard where he's being send to Earth to learn humility and to protect the people of Midgard. When we return to the cave Blake has turned into Thor and he now remembers everything.

In the seguel I'd like to see him be Thor full time, kind of like he was in the Ultimates, and interact with his old friends who don't know what to think of him now that he has come back with super-powers and claims to be an ancient being from mythology.

If that was the way they did the Blake/Thor connection, I think it would work best with just one actor. Especially since I'd love to see Thor hanging out with people from Blake's life, and for that to really work Thor can't really be a completely different person. He'd have to still be recognizable as the Donald Blake they knew. And I think that would be more entertaining than the secret identity thing, which has been done numerous times with numerous other characters.

[TheCorpulent1]

Different actors for Blake and Thor. Hemsworth should bulk up a bit and someone shorter and smaller should play Blake. Thor's more Captain Marvel/Billy Batson than Superman/Clark Kent. There's an actual physical transformation that takes place when he switches back and forth--one's a human body, the other's a god's body.

[RaZaTrOn]

Definatly different people. Just with a bit of a similar look. Because at the end of the day they are different people/god.
I think it's best represented in the new Thor comic.

[TheCorpulent1]

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the whole humility aspect. Blake was meant to instill humility in Thor, so he sort of needs to be frail and weaker than average. Turning a god into a human and wiping his memory only works to instill humility if he faces adversity as that human. If Thor gets turned into a human who looks as buff and handsome as his godly self, he doesn't really learn anything.

[Vartha]

Corp the way it was written in the first draft it plays out very well and he does learn humility. YOU didn't want to know what was going on my friend. :D

[FlawlessVictory]

Hemsworth could try pulling the same stunt Bale did for The Machinist. :woot:

[Canis Sapiens]

Call me crazy, but I still don't think Don Blake is in this movie. It's a gut feeling.

[Chewy]

Yeah, I think word that he has been added to the end of the script is accurate - I highly doubt he has been added to the bulk of the script.

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, if he is in it, he ought to be played be a separate actor. Just say no to 'roided-out Blake.

[chiefchirpa]

Different actor.

Donald Blake - Branagh? Hehe, that would be inexpensive.

[TheCorpulent1]

I could see it working.

[Project862006]

Donald Blake muut of really let himself go then LOL

[Raiden]

Thor and Blake aren't as different as Banner and Hulk, so I don't see the need to cast two actors for these two roles. With the right makeup and movie magic, Thor can look like Blake, and vise versa.

[Keyser Soze]

I say different actors. Donald Blake should look like a total waif, someone in the mold of Daniel Faraday from Lost.

[Project862006]

should cast Jesse Spencer(House ) for Donald Blake

http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/1121/drchase.jpg

looks enough like hemsworth

and he plays a doctor on house so there you go lol

[Spider-ManHero12]

Edit - nvm

[Spider-ManHero12]

I could see it working. So could I. :up:

[RockSP]

looks enough like hemsworth

Does Blake really need to look like Thor, though?

[Project862006]

said hemsworth not Thor lol they could resemblance each other a little bit

[TheCorpulent1]

Genius! Someone get Jeremy Davies on the phone. :D

Nope. In the comics, Odin modeled Blake on a real human being named Keith Kincaid, so Blake would look like that human, not Thor. Blake may have only just become a fully separate personality in the current volume of the comics, but Blake and Thor have always been totally separate bodies, at least.

[RockSP]

Didn't know that.

I don't really see the point of casting an actor for Blake who looks a lot like the actor for Thor. If they are doing the whole Blake/Thor secret id thing it would seem to me Blake should look very different.

[TheCorpulent1]

If Blake is just tacked on at the end to show how Thor winds up on present-day Earth, it doesn't really matter who they cast. That's why I wouldn't even mind Branagh himself playing the role. Barring that, just cast any young actor of average height with an average build, give him a cane and some hair dye if necessary, and shoot his 5 minutes of screentime over a day. Simple. I just don't think Thor and Blake should be played by the same actor because that's not true to the characters.

[bossman550]

7-5 in favor of two actors

[Bren]

Different actors, please. (but would prefer no Blake anyway...).

[bossman550]

^ y

[supraman]

they should have different actors. like someone else mentioned It would be to much like superman....hey look I put on glasses everyones a dumbass and cant recognize me.

edit: i joined this forum in 2004 and only have 53 post lol

[MilkmanDan]

they should have different actors. like someone else mentioned It would be to much like superman....hey look I put on glasses everyones a dumbass and cant recognize me.That's assuming he goes back and forth between Thor and Blake. It may not be a "secret identity" story. It might be more like the Ultimate version and Donald Blake simply finds the hammer, turns into Thor and stays that way. That's the option I'd prefer. We've seen heroes struggle to hide their identities for ages now. And, IMO, it's been done with more interesting alter egos than Dr Blake. I'd rather see him interact with Jane Foster and his old friends who don't know what to think of this new bizarre version of the man they love. I think that would make a better sub-plot than having Donald Blake sneak away all the time to change his identity like pretty much every other superhero.

[TheCorpulent1]

The less Ultimate influence, the better. I love the element of a god being bound to a frail human as penance for his arrogance, and you need two physically different actors for that. So I'm hoping for separate actors.

[Spider-Fan83]

I was just thinking, you know who could be a good Blake...
Casey Affleck

[TheCorpulent1]

That could be cool. Kind of a big name for what would likely be a really small part, though.

[bossman550]

^ true.

[Raiden]

I really don't see the point of casting two actors for the dual role of Thor/Blake, because I want the same actor who not only play the meaty part of the Mighty Thor, but also the quieter scenes of Blake where he can get most of the acting chops in. Perhaps there will be some similarities with Clark/Superman, but since it's a film there will be some modification to the character anyway. I trust Branagh to do the right thing for this issue.

[TheCorpulent1]

Ideally, the movie would feature a well-rounded Thor first and foremost, so Hemsworth would have more than enough to work his acting chops on in that role. Blake doesn't really need to have a huge presence; he's basically just Thor's reason for hanging around Earth and empathizing with humans.

[alexdunn]

I think they should have the same actor, but put Blake in a wheelchair to seperate to two moreso, rather than just a cane.

[bossman550]

well this forum will b closed. cuz donald blake unfortantly (i kno thats spelt wrong) will not be in thor movie

[TheCorpulent1]

According to...?

[Canis Sapiens]

Kevin Feige himself, in that UGO article that was taken down:

Q: Is Donald Blake going to be in the story and is he still going to be handicapped?

Feige: No.

[[A]]

Yup, read about it this morning. Blake is not gonna be in it.

[alexdunn]

Doesn't mean he won't be in the Avengers. Thor will take place completely in Asgard. But Averngers will be on Earth...which means Blake.

[Chewy]

Thor will take place completely in Asgard.
No it won't

[alexdunn]

No it won't

Oh...:csad:

[TheCorpulent1]

Hmm, no Blake after all. Assuming Feige wasn't being sly and referring to the handicapped question, anyway. I'm not gonna miss him or anything, but I'm kind of curious how they're gonna bridge the Thor and Avengers movies together if Thor doesn't wind up in his human form in the present at the end of his own movie.

[FaT_tONle]

I don't know what substitue we are getting for Blake... is there anything else from the comics that would work? I am sure they have something, but this is rather suprising.

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, Thor was put in the form of Siegfried and Siegmund from the Nibelung Saga before he was banished as Blake. Maybe they're going to bring him to Earth in the distant past as one of those earlier forms. Or they could use Jake Olson or Eric Masterson.

[protocida]

Maybe Odin banishes Thor to Earth in his God form, but with amnesia?

[TheCorpulent1]

Not a great way to learn humility, I would think...

[protocida]

Maybe they use the Ultimate version, where his powers come from the hammer? He is send here without it, and becomes mortal?

[TheCorpulent1]

I very, very, very much hope not.

[Canis Sapiens]

Maybe he is sent here with all his memories, but none of his powers. Then people think he's a crazy dude claiming he's the God of Thunder and put him in an Asylum or something that incapacitates him for a while. Then comes that part on the summary of the plot: "Once here, Thor learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth."

But of course, I've been wrong before...

[TheCorpulent1]

Geez, people are really intent on painting Thor as a crazy person. I guess that wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, but I wouldn't particularly want to see it.

[Canis Sapiens]

I'm not saying that's what I'd like to see, but "he-must-be-crazy" powerless Thor would kind of make sense to me if they're making an amalgam of 616 and Ultimate Thor (as they did with Iron Man and Hulk). People doubting Thor's sanity is a big part of the Ultimate version, and since we won't have Blake...

[Anubis]

Eh, I think it could work. Just as long as we don't have to sit though a lot of Thor whining about how his All-Father could forsake him.

[Canis Sapiens]

If they preserve the way Thor reacts to things just as it was in the 1st draft, he won't be a whiner. :oldrazz: He handles it all with a lot of bravery and dignity.Like, to show that he doesn't depend solely on his powers to be a true god.

[TheCorpulent1]

What Ultimate elements were in Hulk and Iron Man? Iron Man especially seemed all 616-eriffic to me. :)

[Anubis]

The Super Soldier Program was fit into the Incredible Hulk. What Banner was working on was a way to make a modern day Super Soldier, but he didn't know that at the time.

[Canis Sapiens]

What Ultimate elements were in Hulk and Iron Man? Iron Man especially seemed all 616-eriffic to me. :)

In Hulk, the fact that Hulk himself was a side effect of Banner trying to emulate Cap's super soldier serum. That scene with Bruce falling from the helicopter, too.

In Iron Man, apart from Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, the fact that everybody knows Stark is Iron Man right from the start. They even hint at 616 when the Shield guy wants Tony to tell the press Iron Man is his body guard.

Not exactly amalgam, I see, but you can spot some bits of the Ultimate-verse here and there...

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, if Thor gets such tiny Ultimate elements, I wouldn't really mind. The vast majority of what I saw in the Hulk and Iron Man movies was true to the 616 versions, which is part of why I enjoyed them so much. :up:

[Canis Sapiens]

Yeah, I really, really think (and hope) Thor's gonna be mostly 616 too. :up:

People involved in the movie are always talking about Simonson and Kirby as main influences (although that writer talked about the Ultimates vol. 2's final battle last week).

But reading some forums and stuff I noticed that people doubting Thor's godly nature (and maybe his sanity, until he displays his powers) is an ultimate concept that the majority of fans accepted.

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, people doubted his godly nature in the 616 universe too, but it wasn't taken to the extremes that the Ultimate universe took it to. You know, Thor was never actually locked up in a mental institution or anything in the 616-verse.

[Anubis]

Most people in the 616 didn't believe he was a God either.

[RockSP]

But reading some forums and stuff I noticed that people doubting Thor's godly nature (and maybe his sanity, until he displays his powers) is an ultimate concept that the majority of fans accepted.

That occured in the mainstream universe as well, back in the day.

Oh, I didn't know about that. :o I've quitted comics in the beginning of the 90s (apart from some Vertigo titles) and just got back to reading Marvel and Thor like 2 years ago, with the JMS run, so I must have missed a lot. I stand corrected!:woot:

[Anubis]

I don't think people didn't really start to believe him until he moved Asgard over Manhattan and started interfering in mortal affairs.

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, it wasn't the subject of an arc or anything, it was just in the background a few times over the decades. People would occasionally comment that they don't really think Thor is the real Thor and the Handbooks stated that the majority of the Marvel universe's population doesn't believe Thor is a god.

[Canis Sapiens]

But only in the Ultimate-verse he was locked up in a mental institution, is that right?

That must be the source of all my confusion. Damn, maybe I should be locked up in a mental institution.

[Anubis]

In the Ultimate Universe he was a male nurse who who suffered from severe depression and got locked up in a crazy house. Then one day he started saying he was Thor and suddenly had the power to back that claim up.

Then Loki showed up and started screwing with reality, making it seem like his brother really was just some crazy nurse who stole his super scientist brother's special belt and hammer.

Yeah, I remember that, and that's where I see a parallel that could be explored in the movie. See, in the 1st draft, a powerless Thor becomes a slave in viking times Earth Since we know that, after the changes in the script, he will probably learn his humility lesson in modern times, I think being locked up without his powers and believed crazy is a tough lesson of humility, as tough as becoming a slave - but of course, they can't make Thor a slave in modern times

[TheCorpulent1]

I guess that could be cool. The thing I like about Blake is the Blake/Thor dynamic and how their personalities complement and contrast each other's, but that would be a bit too involved to get into in a movie that should ideally be about Thor kicking ass. Crazy guy in a mental institution as a metaphor for powerlessness works pretty well in a more simplistic fashion.

[Canis Sapiens]

Yeah, I think it would work for a movie. But God only knows if they'll take that route.

[Canis Sapiens]

Now that I think of it, I see that The Ultimate-verse idea I was referring to was Thor learning his humility lesson by being locked up as a crazy person, and not people doubting his godly nature. It's all clear to me now. :oldrazz:

[bossman550]

yesss my forum remains!!! sorry were were we

[NewAvenger4]

NO DONALD BLAKE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thank you that is all.

[theSpectre69]

I agree totally! No Donald Blake ever! He is not needed whatsoever. Thor is the god of thunder and not a Captain Marvel knockoff with an alter ego.

[Dr. StrÅngË]

same guy

[Vartha]

Same guy as in WHO? Blake isn't Thor and Thor isn't Blake tho they do share the same space. They AREN'T the same guy.

[Anubis]

The guys that said no Don Blake ever is the same guy.

[Superhero 101]

I am completely confused :csad:

[bossman550]

^ read first post

[Judson Caspian]

NO DONALD BLAKE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thank you that is all.
No Bruce Banner!!! No Walter Kovacs!!! No Peter Parker!!! No Bruce Wayne!!!

Just leave.

[Canis Sapiens]

It's kind of different. Blake is not a secret identity ala Bruce Wayne, Peter Parker or Clark Kent. He's note even an alter ego, ala Bruce Banner. He's a totally different person, whose main purpose, IMO, is to serve as a weakness to an all-powerful god and being a down-to-earth, more relatable character for the audience. You don't learn more about Thor by watching Blake's life.

I think they can make Thor a more relatable and vulnerable character without needing to go all the Billy Batson route. So, I don't think Don Blake is necessary in this movie.

[DavidTyler]

I'd really like for Donald Blake to be in the film... even if he's just used at the beginning until Thor regains his memory of who he actually is.

As to the question of whether it should be two different actors or just the one... I'm leaning toward one but I'm flexible on it.

[Canis Sapiens]

Don't even worry... Kevin Feige himself said Blake's not in the movie.

Blake is Thor's humanity given life, basically. So you do learn more about Thor by watching Blake. He's also not a weakness so long as they leave the 60-second rule off the hammer, which I think would be a good idea anyway.

[Canis Sapiens]

Oh, I always hated that 60 second rule!:cmad:

[TheCorpulent1]

I think every Thor fan did. Only Thor writers seemed to like it.

[Timstuff]

I'd say use the same actor. As has been said before, using two different actors would be too Hulk-ish, and Hemsworth isn't big enough to make the transition look that dramatic anyway. If he was some 6' 9" body builder then there'd certainly be a noticeable difference, but Hemsworth is more of the strong looking athlete type. If the only way to make fans happy is to have Blake be a scrawny twig compared to Thor, then I'd say it's probably better to not even bother having him in the movie. However, if Thor has no plain clothes disguise whatsoever, it might be difficult to avoid silly antics every time there's not an action scene going on. He could use the Donald Blake name as his alias when he's in regular clothes and not doing his superhero schtick, just as a little nod.

[TheCorpulent1]

Sigurd Jarlson, yo.

[Timstuff]

Well then there you go. We don't need Donald Blake. :p

[Canis Sapiens]

Neither does Thor. :hehe:

[AnorexicBatman]

Despite not actually reading many Thor comics I think some sort of middle ground can be reached. What if Thor was just one guy and was trapped in the body of frail middle aged man. No alternate personality. Just a prison... made of flesh...

Like the last scene of the movie could be Thor being banished to earth and he wakes up in the body of a patient who was clinically dead (coma). The patient being... Dr. Donald Blake. Let's say the original Blake was an ******* and this everyone treats Thor as such

But if Blake is not in the movie. What the hell is Jane Foster doing there?

[spider-neil]

probably not the thread for it but the ultimate thor was confusing, they made out his (thor) power was in his costume and indeed when they gave his costume to someone else the new prson displayed lightning powers, but this makes no sense if thor is really a god and his power resides within himself.

I could see them simply having Thor himself fall in love with Jane and she consequently teaches him about the better points of humanity. No Blake needed.

[RockSP]

So what happened to that whole "The Movie Takes Place in Asgard/Ancient Times" thing? If Foster is there...

[TheCorpulent1]

Rewrites, yo.

[bossman550]

i like the idea of thor wearing normal clothes(when not in action) and using Blake as alias

[Canis Sapiens]

It's hard enough to buy the concept of Supes disguising himself behind a pair of glasses and nobody noticing it... let alone a huge long haired blond guy with nordic features, speaking in Shakespearean English, who happens to disappear every time Thor is around...:oldrazz:

Thing is, in my opinion, Thor doesn't need any secret identity.

[AnorexicBatman]

Nah! I still want to see Arnold S. transform into House M.D. and vice versa :hehe:

[Canis Sapiens]

On a second thought, I'd pay good money to see that! :woot:

[AnorexicBatman]

Hmm...

TONIGHT ON HOUSE

Alison Cameron: Blake! This patient appears to be showing signs of liver failure. His skin tone has become pale. There is immense hammeroge in the left chest cavity. Your diagnosis?

Blake: Verily. Tis appears to be the vile trickery of my evil half-brother Loki! I shall get some herbs! This mortal has naught long to live

Alison: :confused: Excuse me?

Blake: I ... er... <to patient with heavy snark> Well, that's what happens when you too much unprotected sex. I think <medical terminology >

<Patient gets all better>

Eric Foreman: Blake is a medical GOD...

Jane Foster: :lmao: Ya... a god... right :lmao:

[bubbadoom]

Since they have always clearly been two different people in the comics, I vote for two different actors in the movie - and that's IF Blake is even in the movie, which I do not feel is necessary [there were LONG stretches of the comic when he was Thor ALL the time]. Of course, with the casting news of Jane Foster, one would assume Blake is not far behind.

I agree with the above observation that Thor has always been a Captain Marvel clone, not a Super Man one, so keep it that way!
