The Official Thor News and Set Pics Thread

[BrollySupersj]

I was never doubtful before, but now it's 100% certain I'll never be.

Thor looks magnificent. :D

[OB12]

What's more is this costume is going to look all kinds of badass next to IM.

[Crimson King]

Why was the other thread closed? This pic came from Yahoo!, not some set leak.

Anyway, the costume is BONER JAMZ.

[Khemik@L]

It's just a model of Coipel's Thor. And the film Thor has obviously taken inspiration from that design.

That model isn't anything to do with the film.
Yea I'm not saying it is exactly the same design, but you can't deny that most of this design was used for this particular costume

[JP]

Wow, it really looks fantastic. It looks a bit rubbery, but I'm sure it'll look fine on film.

[ViciousValentin]

I was never doubtful before, but now it's 100% certain I'll never be.

Thor looks magnificent. :D
AMEN BROTHER
the Rest of the cast's costumes along with the destroyer are gonna make this movie crazy!!!!! Marvel is really flexing their muscles with these new movies, I'm not a big Chris Evans fan but I think they will go the ultimate route with Captain America, and Hugo Weaving as Red Skull is genious.......Marvel has brought joy to comic fans!!!!!!

[OB12]

It looks like the cape is a heavy cloth rather than leathery, which I like.

[Tissues]

Looks awesome. A little rubbery-- more so than I was expecting-- but still pretty sight for the eyes. Great thing to wake up to.

[marcvader]

Looks cool! Not a fan of the form fitting armor as its not natural looking and more rubbery. Works on paper but alas it can be "asgardian metal". None the less nice to see Thor in flesh and bone.

[MikeFrost]

Wow. Pretty cool.

I still prefer the sleeveless design tho.

[louiebling$]

Wheree the Hell is Corp... this is just so much.... I wake up and I go to slashfilm and what do I see..... ****ING THOR!11!! :awesome:

Its so perfect1!!:awesome::awesome::awesome::awesome:


:thor:

[rcazzy]

Posted this in the other threads to as it seemed right.

Brightened the chest area, seems kinda like armour. I like it though, he looks seriously tough. I assume they'll make the armour look more metallic.

Also, first time seeing this, I hear thunder outside. Perfect :D

Hahaha, a fellow Feedback fan, I see. :hehe:

Yeah, it definitely looks amazing. I can't wait to see it in action.

Yeah, I can see where some are coming from on the rubbery bit. but then to someone as powerful as Thor, metal would be like rubber. Depends on other things with how they sell it in action. Like the sounds it makes, seeing something scrape against it and having some small sparks fly, etc. That all can help sell it as well. I'm still really digging the look though I really wasn't worried about them getting it wrong. They've been pretty spot on with adapting the look of their characters. This gets a :up: from me.

[Green Ghost]

Chris really pulls of the look and even the long blonde hair doesn't look campy!
the design is awesome! the only problem like mentioned before, it looks a little to much like rubber. but maybe that chances when seeing it in motion...

[kedrell]

Wow. Pretty cool.

I still prefer the sleeveless design tho.

It's still very possible that we may yet see that in the movie as well.

[Mrpaul]

Awesome possum

Tell me about it. One thing I was worried about was a mullet.

[kedrell]

What makes you say that?


Well this is pretty clearly in Asgard. There's al sorts of room for possibilities of that sort to change once he comes to Earth. I have no inside info, if that's what you're asking. I just realize that there is easily the possibility for his sleeveless look to make an appearance.

[uchiha_itachi]

You know the more I look at it the more I think it can pass as some sort of Hi-tech metal. If that makes sense? lol

[donk70]

looks great. Marvel gets it right again!

[Vartha]

Looks alot like what we've seen in MUA2 if you ask me.

Hot damn. That's beautiful.

Thor looks perfect. Mjolnir looks perfect. The Destroyer looks perfect.

Can't wait to see Loki and Heimdall.

[spider-neil]

It'll have to be a PM, bootleg images are banned. I forgot to save it beforehand :doh:

[kedrell]

It's easy enough to find on youtube.

[Scarecrow_King]

have they ever gone into detail about why or how Thor adopted the sleeves in the comics?

I was just wondering if we could get an explanation of how its made from the same Uru metal that Mjolnir's made from. even though to me the chain mail doesn't really look all that much like stone, like Uru is supposed to.

Nah, he just reappeared wearing that costume in Thor vol. 3. It's definitely not made of uru because he's gotten it torn up pretty good on numerous occasions since he started wearing it.

Costume designers and actors involved with the movie have talked about the helmet

[Anubis Raptor]

Yeah it should look something like this, IMO

[Sawyer]

I wonder when we'll get any news about the Thor animated series that Marvel will be releasing to tie-in with the movie...

[kedrell]

Hmm, not bad. I think though that I prefer the wings to be a bit further away from the face and more to the sides. Not sure why though, just a gut impression.

[Whiskey Tango]

Odin's beard, those are some snazzy duds!

Love the deep red on the cape. Muted colors? Hah! Eat it, Supes.

Looks damn good to me, it's just what I envisioned the Coipel suit looking like in real life. Can't wait for a full shot with helmet and Mjolnir. Chris looks badass too, lookit them guns!

Man o man, happy Friday.

It's got the plating, the cape, the discs, and it has just the right amount of modernization.

[SpiderByte]

My hype for Thor has gone to "Sounds cool, I guess" to "Freaking Awesome" in the past two days.

[SpiderByte]

Looking at that pic, I can't help but wonder how cool he will look WITH the helmet. He makes it look good without it.

I can't believe I'm looking at a live action Thor. That's insane.

I like it, the costume looks great so far.
I can't wait to see a full body shot.:thor:

[SpiderByte]

All doubt I had that the costume would look weird next to the other Avengers has evaporated. It's awesome, perfect, and I love it.

[Maximillian]

This makes it so much harder to wait for the trailer.

[SpiderByte]

The only thing that is weird (Not that I don't like it, it's just noticable) that whenever I look at the cape I think of a nice woolen blanket.

Just saying.

[Ace of Knaves]

There's gotta be some footage at comic con.

[Webhead2006]

great to finally see the suit on chris, cant wait to see what the helmet looks like and him holding the hammer soon hopefully.

yea thank god thor's cape doesnt look like that rubber shower curtain cape superman returns costume was. Speaking of supes next film i hope they go cloth cape like bb/tdk cape or how thor's cape looks.

[Captain America]

Agreed! :up: They really need to utilize the capes in the films, Batman Begins/TDK - he glides with it, Thor - He's Royalty, and superman should be something similar

I believe this is the first time where nobody has actually said they don't like a costume for a film before. There are some people who like it less than others, but nobody has actually said that they do not like it.

Best reaction to a costume on this forum yet.

[Captain America]

Best I've seen :up:

[Wolfman]

I'm sorry to be so negative, but after the shock of finding out that there is a picture of Thor released, and then staring at it for a while, slight dissapointment comes up...

[Scarecrow_King]

that's simply because there is nothing to not like.

I can't stop looking at it. the awesomeness cannot be described in words.

[Wolfman]

I'm really dissapointed that they went with the current costume. I don't like those scale mail sleeves and the plastic looking circle plates. They should have at least make them a bit scrached or something, maybe then they wouldn't look so plasticky. And I hate the carvings in the plates.

But I am happy about the red cape and Chris Hemsworth, he looks great as Thor. But damn it with those sleeves...

Looks like plastic right? right, but that's not how it'll look in the film, there'll be some touch-ups.

Dig the suit! Awesome. I'm surprised they kept the sleaves. But they look kind of rubbery don't they?

There always will be at least some slight nitpick - I prefer without beard/chainmail, why didn´t they show the helmet, etc.-, but it´s overall too true to the comics to be an excuse for any significant outrage.

I don´t think there was much criticism towards the Iron Man armor as well.

[Anubis Raptor]

Chain mail arms are outstanding. Pays homage to Coipel's legendary design.

[SpiderByte]

The only real negative comments revolve around the plastic bits on the arms, but I can't find any comments anywhere that says they don't like it at all.

[Webhead2006]

yea i cant wait to see the suit in action.

[TheCorpulent1]

I think the arms look fine. We all talked about chainmail and stuff, but the truth is that the comic version never, ever looked like chainmail. We just couldn't figure out how they would convey that look without some kind of mail. But it turns out the costumers devised a way to match the comic version almost exactly, and I think it looks fine. They'll probably apply some lighting effects to make it look more metallic in post, too.

yea once everything is finished with lighting, and special effects in post and with sound effects and in motion it will probably look even better.

[MikeFrost]

I'd still like him to wear different outfits on the movie!

This one is my favourite and would be more appropriate for a Viking world. (Would probably be the one used if they went with that first script draft.)

http://www.comicsbulletin.com/news/images/0803/ThorAgesOfThunderCover.jpg


I think they could start him as this more modest outfit at the movie start and then move him to the Coippel one when he gets his ornate cerimonial costume (assuming they still have a similar scene like that on the movie).

[Captain America]

Great pic :up: like the sleeves on better though

[Rock Sexton]

Great pic :up: like the sleeves on better though

I'm wondering if the desire to give him sleeves was to keep him more in-line with the other heroes like Cap and Iron Man .... because those guys wear full suits.

I have a preference for the sleeveless drawings, but I fully approve of what they did for the film.

[Ace of Knaves]

No it is was because Coipel's design is bad ass and well liked. Personally it's my favourite Thor design.

And that Ages of Thunder design up there was set centuries ago, in past Ragnarock cycles. So it makes sense that it was design to look more old worldly.

I'm not denying that aspect of it .... I'm just saying it keeps him more uniformally in-line with the other heroes, perhaps easing the believability on screen when paired up with them. I mean it would be hard to look somewhat "tech" and sleeveless at the same time.

[SpiderByte]

http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii289/SpiderByte_photo/thor-chris-hemsworth-large.jpg

It's so sweet it just has to be posted again. The only possible problem I can think of is that the way the cape stands up won't look as good from other angles.

It's just beautiful.

I'm inclined to believe it was just because that's what Thor's wearing in the comics right now, myself. Marvel Studios seems keen on taking the comic versions of the characters and putting them on the screen as unchanged as possible. With Iron Man, they got Adi Granov, the same guy who was doing Iron Man's comics at the time, to design the movie costume. With Thor, it looks like they've had their costumers follow the guidelines of Coipel's comic design pretty closely.

But I agree, I personally prefer a sleeveless Thor. Why cover up the gun show, right? ;)

He wont be sleveless because while wearing the thick chest armor, if he went sleveless, it would make his arms look alot smaller.

You're kidding, right? There's gonna be enough shirtless/arm showing Thor in the movie. I mean, I'm like 3000% sure he doesn't get sent to Earth in his Thor suit.

Nope when I 1st seen it this morning I didn't even notice.. I still don't see it as "Rubber".

[TheCorpulent1]

Nope, Hemsworth is gigantic. He's like 6'4" and his arms, as of the Red Dawn filming (i.e. before he bulked up even more for Thor) looked about as wide as my head.

[Aesop Rocks]

If Hemsworth was American (which I thought he was for the longest time) and Alex SomethingIcanttype got Thor, Yeah, Hemsworth would have been a great Steve,

[TheCorpulent1]

I'm happy with Evans. I'll always wonder what Alex Skarsgaard would've been like as Thor, but Hemsworth/Evans/Downey Jr. look good as the big three Avengers in my head. Hemsworth is a couple inches taller than Evans and way taller than RDJ, so it'll be cool to see Thor towering over his mortal comrades. :hehe:

[Aesop Rocks]

Yeah, I'm happy with Evans too, it's just one of those things to think about.

[TheCorpulent1]

I'm glad I saw Sunshine. The movie itself may have crashed and burned in the third act, but Evans' performance in that movie is the main thing that convinced me he has a much bigger range than just the class clown.

[Aesop Rocks]

Actually Evans...saved Sunshine for me, the 3rd act that is. I literally don't see how people can't see "Steve Rogers on a spaceship"!!

Oh and, the town Thor goes to on Earth? Broxton

Will they keep 'the bearded' look?

I hope so, it looks good on him.

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, I like the beard. Not just because I like bearded Thor in general, but because it makes Hemsworth look like more of a warrior and less of a prettyboy. That's the problem with casting such good-looking leading men as big, fearsome brutes like Thor. ;)

[Rock Sexton]

Why is this movie not going to open until May 2011? Seems like an awful long time.

I'm loving how comic accurate Marvel is going with this movie. Destroyer looks 100% like his comic counter-part.

[Webhead2006]

totally its great marvel studios has the guts to go as accurate as possible with their characters. compared to some of the leased out marvel films(ie xmen costumes) and dc (superman returns costume)

[Chewy]

That guy from AICN who has seen the costumes who posted the (accurate) description a few weeks ago posted more...

His helmet does have wings
It looks literally EXACTLY like the helmet in the comicsAnd for those saying he doesn't look big enough
This is a close up pic, but trust me, Hemsworth is a big dude and he looks big in the costume. The dichotomy between him as Thor and the sufficiently reedy Hiddleston as Loki is spot on.And one more thing, as someone who's seen the costumes
I cannot ****ing believe anyone is *****ing about it because the arms arent ACTUAL chain mail. The whole costume is pretty much aesthetically perfect, as are the rest of the costumes in the film to their comic counterparts (or they are updated well within the realm of reason), and we ***** because the TEXTURES arent exact. I am one picky fella when it comes to my comic book films and I always demand a certain level of fidelity, but this is just an absurd level of throwing the baby out with the bathwater. I can tell you right now, if the lack of ACTUAL metal on an already incredibly physically limiting costume is going to be a deal breaker for you then the rest of the costumes arent going to convince you either, because there isnt any real metal on those either. The motif of the suits isn't going for any kind of ACTUAL viking realism but is very skewed into the realm of the comic book world it represents, almost sort of futuristic with an old world norse flair. They are fairly over the top compared to say, the "realism" of the X-Men wearing leather jumpsuits. If that's your fancy than all I have to say is, **** you. Those costumes have dated horribly, and I would give anything for something closer to the old school comic costumes, which Thor does very well. Then again, I guess I'm just a comic book fan like that. My suggestion, get over it, they are colorful and over the top and as accurate a representation of the source material as we were ever going to get.Ill be interested in seeing reactions to Loki now
Because if this is controversial I think that will be much more so. I thought his costume looked ****ing awesome, complete with big ass horns and all. But it def doesn't look metal, and it's shiny chrome gold, not the more muted gold that one might expect. And also because hte horns are so big the back of the helmet almost looks a little bike helmetish, it sticks out a bit to balance out the weight. I would like to think people would be reasonable enough to understand the logistics of that, you know, so the acttor can move without looking like an *******. Hiddleston looks rad though, with pale white skin and straight black hair. the warriors three
Keep in mind this is off the top of my head and I'm recalling from months back, and the costumes are fairly complex and detailed. I'll start off by saying their costumes are a little less traditional to their individual backgrounds than the comic. Where as Fandral was dressed straight up Errol FLynn, Hogun straight up Mongol, and Volstagg was....I dont really know what Volstagg was supposed to be. But their costumes are less traditional and more in the rubber future armor motif of the rest of the Asgardian crew. Their color schemes are dark blue for Hogun, whose armor has an almost samurai hint to it but there are no hanging cloths or leather like the comic. I didn't see a mongul helmet either as he had pulled back kind of samurai looking hair, nor does he have facial hair. A dark greenish blue (if I recall correctly, but it's some kind of blue hue) for Fandral, who also has a cape and long, not short, sleeves. His hair is blonde like the comic and he also has the classic swashbuckler facial hair. Volstagg is a taller Ray Stevenson complete with fake fat suit and long ginger hair and beard, he looks pretty awesome. His suit is a maroonish red and it looks a little more like armor than the other two. Sif has a bright red corset like top and long black hair. The costume is a bit less skimpy than I think it is usually in the comics, she has bare arms but her midriff is not exposed nor is any part of her leg.

That guy from AICN who has seen the costumes who posted the (accurate) description a few weeks ago posted more...

Thanks for sharing that,mate!;up:

Chewy=:awesome:

[Webhead2006]

nice chewy.

[Vartha]

man I can't wait for movie props from this.

[Chewy]

So to summarize from his paragraphs of descriptions:

Thor - obviously we've all seen it, except for the helmet, which apparently looks exactly like the comic helmet
Loki - green and shiny chrome gold; helmet with horns- it sticks out a bit in the back to balance it so Hiddleston can practically wear it; straight black hair
Sif - bright red corset for a top; bare arms; entirely covered midriff and legs
Fandral - dark greenish-blue color scheme; cape and long sleeves; blonde hair and swashbuckler facial hair
Hogun - samurai-inspired with a dark blue color scheme; no helmet or hanging cloths/leather; no facial hair, samurai-looking hair
Volstagg - maroonish-red color scheme; fake fat suit and long ginger hair/beard; "looks a little more like armor than the other two"

[Gamma Burst]

From the above description,I'm now very curious to see how Hogun!

[JP]

:awesome:

[Khemik@L]

Anybody else believe we will see something else for Thor next week?

[roach]

My god, this week has been epic for superhero stuff.

Batman 3 gets a release date.
The Iron Man 2 after credits scene featuring Mjolnir is leaked.
The Destroyer is leaked.
We get the first shot of Hemsworth in costume as Thor.

This week is the Week of Legends!

wait until we see Cap in costume, Red Skull in costume, GL in costume, Bucky in costume, Loki revealed.....

[roach]

Anybody else believe we will see something else for Thor next week?

maybe a shot of Odin or Loki

[Aesop Rocks]

We might get a few more things before SDCC.

[Gamma Burst]

It would be fantastic if we could get an shot of Odin over the coming weeks.

[Sebastos]

Anybody else believe we will see something else for Thor next week?

Hope so.

[roach]

We might get a few more things before SDCC.

i'd be disappointed if they didnt have a sizzle reel at SDCC...too bad I will be in school:csad:

[Aesop Rocks]

Roach, it's almost a given that Thor will have something at SDCC.

[echostation]

You guys will be proud of the helmet... i mean seriously it will instill not only a level of joy but a massive level of pride in being such a huge thor fan... it'll come shortly but I'm not sure when..

[roach]

You know that and I know that but sometimes the film makers dont

[roach]

the minute i heard that Braunaugh-whatever was directing this I had no worries

[jpbijos]

I can't wait to see loki, and a full pic of thor!
I think this will be the movie that sticks closest to the comics.

[Gamma Goliath]

What is this destroyer I keep hearing about? I'm no huge thor buff. And what's the mjolnir like?

[Anubis Raptor]

What is this destroyer I keep hearing about? I'm no huge thor buff. And what's the mjolnir like?

The only pics we have of Mjolnir and Destroyer are bootleg and those are a no-no. If you like I will PM them to you. Otherwise, they look spectacular.

[Webhead2006]

yea both look 616 marvel accurate.

[Ace of Knaves]

The Destroyer looks like it has literally been ripped from the pages. It's awesome.

I wonder who uses it? Or if it is just controlled by Loki?

[echostation]

again, wait till you see the Helmet... it really displays what they mean by a future tech look and all these damn complaints of his chainmail looking rubbery will vanish...

[Raiden]

again, wait till you see the Helmet... it really displays what they mean by a future tech look and all these damn complaints of his chainmail looking rubbery will vanish...

You already saw it? I'm jealous. :o

[SpiderByte]

echo, have you seen it?

[Ace of Knaves]

I don't think he means that. He probably means wait til you see Thor in his full awesomeness. Like in an actual promo shot/poster, rather than just a still from the set.

[Whiskey Tango]

again, wait till you see the Helmet... it really displays what they mean by a future tech look and all these damn complaints of his chainmail looking rubbery will vanish...

echo, you've seen the helmet? Is it more like the classic helm (http://www.disabledonline.com/images/uploads/THSSHELM_f.jpg) or the King Thor (http://www.justmusing.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/Thor_Helmet.jpg) one?

I'd prefer the latter, myself.

edit: Damn, I'm slow. Nvm.

[Ace of Knaves]

Yea i'd prefer the latter one too. Looks more like a proper helm, with the wings blended into it. Not just a lid with wings stuck on.

[Nathan]

Definitely King Thor. It would fit perfectly with his current movie design.

[kedrell]

I like the classic shape better but think the wings design and color should be more like the king version.

[Anubis Raptor]

Yeah the King Thor is really cool.

[kedrell]

Just pull the king version's wings back away from the face a bit and more to the sides and it would be golden.

[Savage]

I'm actually looking forward to seeing Coipel's design (http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b290/Phatjesus/thor001.jpg) with the bridge of the nose covered.

[Vartha]

PERSONALLY I preffer the Lord Thor Helmet, but, seeing as Odin is still alive I think Coipel's Helmet would look better.
http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c331/Vartha1/Thor/Mjolnir/100_4984a.jpg

[kedrell]

Well they're obviously not doing the tunic like Copiel's so other things might be different as well.

[SpiderByte]

The armor heavily reflects the tunic, though.

[Vartha]

Surcoat, not a tunic.

[Webhead2006]

it will probably be classic looking/what ever copiel's helmet looks like since we are pretty much copiel's costume for the film.

[SpiderByte]

Marvel Studios is 3-0 for characters being similar to their comic book appearance.

Scratch that, it's 5-0. Forgot War Machine and Widow. Fury doesn't count because his Ultimate appearance was BASED off of Sam Jackson to begin with.

[Whiskey Tango]

I'm actually looking forward to seeing Coipel's design (http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b290/Phatjesus/thor001.jpg) with the bridge of the nose covered.

Ah, I didn't even think about this one.

[Gamma Goliath]

So who's the destroyer?

[Vartha]

Ah, I didn't even think about this one.
Yeah Coipel's design is a cross between the Kirby Classic and Lord Thor.
I like it because the point of the helmet is more tapered to the point over a Spike on the Bowl look.

[Webhead2006]

the destroyer from what i read on wiki is an enchanted suit of armor. in which loki uses it for his schemes and has it fight thor from time to time. just think of him as a big metal musclemen/henchmen.

[Vartha]

So who's the destroyer?

Destroyer is indistructable Armor Odin made, the is occupied by someone's Soul.
I have Wallpapers up of Destroyer in the Wallpaper section

[Blade X]

Could the upcoming THOR:THE MIGHTY AVENGER comic book be partially or loosely based off of the movie version of Thor? Herfe's a link to the article http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=25792

[TheCorpulent1]

It might be, but I doubt it. It seems to just be the all-ages Thor comic, like the Marvel Adventures comics and such.

[Whiskey Tango]

This may or may not have already been posted. You never can tell with bees.

Needless to say, herein there be possible spoilers!

Apparently someone got their hands on a draft of Thor and has revealed the potential opening. Of course scripts and drafts are changed all the time, so there is a chance this will not be the actual scene, but if you are still interested in reading it click on the button below.

Thanks to Iceman815 for the heads up!

Thor: Opening Scene

The film opens up in the best possible way; the introduction of the Nine Realms by a 'booming voice' against a black screen. Embossed words describing each of the worlds begin to appear as the camera opens on the first.

The three Norse spirits Verðandi (present), Urðr (fate) and Skuld (future) narrate the creation of the realms and how the different manner of creatures in them came to be. First, the camera flies over Muspelheim followed by Hel and Niffleheim. The first character introduced Ymir, the first of the Frost Giants and his family in the realm of Jotunheim. You then pass over the realm of the dwarves, Svartalfheim, and the elves, Nidavellir. The camera flows through Midgard (Earth) and we see man exulting Odin in his temple. Finally, the camera pans through Bifrost, the Rainbow Bridge, to the the Hall of Asgard, which is filled with the Aesir. You see a glimpse of the Einherjar guard and winged Valkyries overhead, in what could only be Valhalla. Odin and Gaea are introduced while they are

. . . umm, conceiving a child. That child turns out to be Thor. Movie title appears.

The scene darkens and ends, when it opens again we are in 'present day' (centuries after the last scene). We find ourselves on the Asgardian border, where Thor (now an adult), his adoptive brother Loki, Fandral, Hogun, Volstagg and Balder (who is actually an older character, as apposed to the comics) are riding thunderously on their horses. They have been tasked on a mission to find Ivaldi, the Dwarf king of Svartalfheim. As they ride to the passageway between realms, we see a giant forge and three blacksmiths at work. They are creating the mighty Mjolnir, to present to Thor upon his arrival...

In addition to the previously reported scene filmed at local nightspot, Cheeks, look for a scene at a beauty shop, complete with villains and explosions. Much of the shooting, however, is taking place near Galisteo.

Not sure what to expect really!

[Aesop Rocks]

I Google Earth'd "Cheeks", place is small as ****.

Oh and, I kind of want Thor to have that new found "humanity" to stop him from killing Loki in the final battle. I picture Loki saying "finish it, I deserve this...". And Thor being how he's been in practically every time he's ever fought Loki says "Nope, no way bro".

[Doctor Jones]

Whoever posted that pic, I hope he got his ass banned.

[Aesop Rocks]

[louiebling$]

Yea uhh what's up Doc? what pic?

It was a bootleg pic of the after credits sequence in IM2.

Oh, eh, it was bound to happen. It was....inevitable.:oldrazz:

[Anubis Raptor]

Maybe he didn't know. He had like 28 posts so he was a noob. Its usually new comers who post huge bootleg pics.

Green Lantern has so much more news, pics, and info than Thor and both movies come out the same year. Thats a shame.

No one got banned. He posted a spoiler image from IM2, but removed it after enough people told him.

Are all of you referring to me? I did in fact post a picture the day the 1st video of the end credits was released. But I took it off as soon as someone said I could be banned.

[Vartha]

Spideyfan there have been MANY fans that have posted the images, EVEN some long time posters had to be told the images (Mjolnir and Destroyer) were bootleg and not to post.

Not to worry.

[misjuevos]

this pic makes me even more mad about x-men costumes. marvel studios would have made some great costumes for the x-men, too bad. hope fox studios is watching.

[SpiderByte]

Fox should just give all the rights they have back to Marvel. The only Fox superhero film I've actually really liked is Fantastic Four (the first one).

[Vartha]

We'll have to wait and see misjuevos.
Ultimates seemed to have been to ME modeled after the X-Men Movie costumes. They had the same feel. I didn't mind too much the look for the X-men in the movie, but leave it to the X-men not all the rest of the COMIC book characters.

[Nathan]

Well, to be fair, Granov's Extremis design and Coipel's updated Thor costume, look a lot more practical and as such are much easier to translate to the big screen, without looking outragous.

With the X-Men, you've got a group of individuals who all wear different costumes and some of them would just look ridiculous in live action.

http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/640/xmenposter.jpg (http://img248.imageshack.us/i/xmenposter.jpg/)

[Vartha]

no doubt Nathan, I'm just saying keep one look to one group of heroes.
I'm sure Marvel would do something different with X-Men in a movie.
The Ultimates seems to copy those movies, almost because of the popular look of a sucessful hero film to sell a different comic of Avengers.

I'm SURE Marvel even back then was looking to sell Avengers as a film and trying different approaches. We long time Thor fans just didn't agree with that approach.

[louiebling$]

Xmen's current costumes would translate well to the big screen

[Nathan]

What do they look like?

[Spideyfan93]

Spideyfan there have been MANY fans that have posted the images, EVEN some long time posters had to be told the images (Mjolnir and Destroyer) were bootleg and not to post.

Not to worry.

I'm pretty sure I was the first one to do so but thanks for telling lol.

I loved the X-Men movies especially the first 2. The Fantastic Four HAS to be back to Marvel but neither will for years and years.

I could imagine a FF movie with Marvel Studios to be amazing! And Galactus would be brought to justice.

I want to see Loki so bad it's not funny anymore. Comic Con is the best bet.:awesome:

[louiebling$]

What do they look like?

I think it would translate well also. Most recent designs of comic book characters would translate well to the silver screen.

[Maximillian]

http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l197/Phoenix_042/154_X_MEN__SECOND_COMING_1_VARIANT_.jpg
These suits look way more appealing than all black jump suits. They're part of the reason why I hate the X-Men movies.

[RetroNaz]

I love the suits. I wish we could just start all over with the X-Men franchise and get it right.

As good as Hugh Jackman is, I still wanted to see Wolverine in full mask and outfit.

And Cyclops as a non pussy leader.

Anyways, sorry...getting a bit off track here!

[hugekent]

I'd love to see that Emma Frost costume on the big screen, as long as it's not on Ali Larter.

[Aesop Rocks]

I'd love to talk about Thor some. :yay:

[RetroNaz]

LOL sorry Aesop.

Here's the next character I'm dying to see...

http://screenrant.com/wp-content/uploads/thor-loki.jpg

[Aesop Rocks]

Not a fan of SUPER huge horns, but I love the design.

Anything like this is too big:
http://i40.tinypic.com/v5iw6u.jpg

[RetroNaz]

I think it depends...I remember reading in the very first draft that the horns were quite large/long.

[Still A ThorFan]

Man, Thor is just going to crush all the marvel movies that came before in terms of quality, story, and tone. Just think about it, they got the translation from comic to live action right, he has about 4 major villians he might go up against, (Destroyer, Loki, Skurge maybe, and some Frost Giants) and the cast is the most talented Marvel ever had.

[Whiskey Tango]

Yeah, they could get a ton of mileage out of Thor if he takes off as a franchise, Not only does he have a really cool rogue's gallery, his supporting cast is pretty deep as well. Plus Earth and Asgard and all of the Nine worlds to set stories in. Pretty diverse.

[Vartha]

I know a few people on facebook not into the comics, but, know about the characters of Thor and can't wait for the movie.
They aren't just guys either. Thor has so many different characters the please alot of different tastes.

[Aesop Rocks]

Yeah I agree. My friend KNOWS who Thor is and the basic idea of "A guy with a hammer that's awesome", and he's totally excited to see the movie.

Guessing we'll get some interviews tomorrow then.

[Webhead2006]

yea right now for me i see the characters ghost rider and probably daredevil and maybe fantastic four being the first leased out guys going back to marvel/disney. Then over xmen and spider-man. Now yea i definately want to see what marvel studios could do with all the characters back in house and all that.
