Well, if they're still tweaking it to this day, I'm not surprised. I just hope they're not fussing and fidgeting over details too much. Like I said before, that tends to lead to a less interesting finished product in art more often than not.

yea, when an artist keeps seeing flaws and chainging them when the flaws or something is really small, it tends to destory the work theyre tryign to perfect

I was just thinking last night that they're keeping his damn helmet as hidden as Two-Face was... why? Even when I didn't know anything about Thor, I still knew what his helmet looked like.
Anyway... this movie is really starting to look good. Until recently I wasn't too impressed with Hemsworth, but that hammer shot really makes you think "The Mighty Thor" :up:

At this point, I'm really hoping we dont get any sign of the helmet until the movie is actually out. I want to see just how far the out of control rage over the lack of helmet pics will go.

True, but they seem to post pictures that specifically are made to not show if he even HAS one at all.

I wonder if Thor will get an EW cover after SDCC... if GL got one before, I'd imagine another superhero might get one after. That would be cool to show the helmet.

I think we've got a good chance of seeing it at Comic-Con, personally. They're almost certainly going to release more footage and/or a trailer, after all.

Plenty of people care about it, judging from the fact that after literally every new pic, someone on here will inevitably mention Thor's lack of a helmet.
SpiderByte
07-22-2010, 06:36 PM
I bet the trailer at SDCC will have him putting it on in the trailer at the end, al la the Mark V from Iron Man 2's trailer.
TheCorpulent1
07-22-2010, 06:37 PM
I don't know, I don't think the production/marketing people really think the fact that they haven't shown him with a helmet so far is that big a deal. I don't see them devoting a major moment in the trailer to it.

It'll probably end with Thor in the full outfit, throwing Mjolnir and shouting some badass line.
The helmet is as iconic as the hammer. It's understandable that people want to see it.
GoblinWhirlwind
07-22-2010, 06:57 PM
Originally I figured he might wear the helmet strictly during battle, like the Spartans, but in the SDCC art, he's fighting Loki with no helmet.
It makes sense now though, if they keep changing the helmet's design for some stupid reason. They wouldn't want to show an outdated one.
Spider-Vader
07-22-2010, 07:04 PM
Marvel's really building up Thor. The displays at CC, game teaser, Thor being in MvC3... All probably leading up to the trailer this weekend. :D
SpiderByte
07-22-2010, 07:11 PM
They're grooming him to make him look good to the GA...and doing it very damn well, mind you. IDrawDeadPeople proves that quite well. If someone who doesn't really care for Thor thinks it's cool, then this movie will be as epic as Iron Man.
GoblinWhirlwind
07-22-2010, 07:15 PM

Yep.
This film is looking great, and in a way that even the GA will like it. An epic, legendary battle, with myth and story behind it, almost always makes for a great film, not counting Clash of the Titans.

I've heard that the ending for Inception was surprising, so a few nights ago I dreamed that I was watching Inception and it ended with Leo being eaten by a shark. All I could think was "Sooo predictable. :whatever:"
I haven't seen the movie yet so don't tell me if my dream was correct.

to be honest I couldn't care less about cap but I've been a thor fan since I was little. to me thor is second only to spidey for marvel characters.
I think that is a big reason why I'm concerned there will be no helmet for thor but couldn't care less if there are no little wings on cap.
I will watch cap at the movies though :)

Better yet some one should sneak the helmet under the seat that Hemsworth will have....... the first person that asks a Helmet related question will que him to reach down... pick it up....put it on and just smile....

It's official: Branagh is perfect for this film, Hemsworth is the perfect Thor.
This movie could not physically possibly get any more epic. It would cause our heads to burst open with the win.

I never liked the tip, TBH. The helmet is pointed enough, IMO. Any more and conehead jokes would start. I am loving the look of those helmets. Just a quick question tho, does Odin's helmet here look like a different one than the one he's wearing in that throneroom pic? There it looks like a golden version of Galactus's helmet.
I think it was just the angle and the fact that the helmet was obscured because it was set against the equally gold doors behind Odin's throne. If you look closely, you can see that they're probably the same helmet.

I dunno. Thor's helmet seems a little off compared to the aesthetic of the suit. They went their way to make the Asgardians look like as alien as possible without loosing the shape of Kirby's drawings, but the helmet seems too litteral. Not that it normally would be a bad thing, but given the artistic choices that they've made it seems a bit...well...off, as I said. Then again it's just a picture of the helmet on display behind glass so we'll have to see actual footage of Chris Hemsworth with the helmet to get a real sense of it. But in the meantime, I don't really like it. Not that it's a biggie or anything but it feels weird to me.
Dark Sentinel
07-23-2010, 06:26 PM
i like it a lot. if the filmmakers are going for an alien look for the Asgardians then this works very well IMO. i think it was John Howe (renowned Tolkien artist, conceptual designer for LOTR films and a personal friend of mine) who said that design never stands still, so it makes sense for Thor's helmet to have a classic feel to it and a modern design at the same time you know?

Good point. I was thinking that they do look a bit over styled. In a way it makes for an argument for the design of the fan made helmet that was shown on the Jonathan Ross show when Idris Elba was on promoting his Luther tv series. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXd3TLug7rI#t=4m25s

Just curious because my gf and I went for the first time last year. Just wondering if you might have been there.
Well I know a couple people that go to I think the Northern Faire. Cally's got so many tho lol Hard to keep track. There's one called the Valhalla Faire. A bear was in the Dumpsters when one of the Knights was taking his trash out lol probably one of the only times he would have REALLY needed the Armour :D

huh Ren Faire, cool, I'm doin an RPG plot on another site takes place at a Ren Faire
I've been trying to build the Bristol faire as a virtual Faire, even tried to make Asgard but many computers crash trying to view the actual model over a Jpeg.

All of the helmets look fantastic. I can't believe they nailed Loki's horns.

Yeah I was a little worried when someone said Loki's helmet resembled a Bike Helmet. Not anymore tho.

I was amazed at the people who were indifferent to the helmet of thor, imagine a movie without those works of art adorning the heads of thor, loki and odin.
power to the sans helmet haters!!! :awesome:
