Thor beard? Yes or No.

[spider-neil]

opinions please.

[Ace of Knaves]

I prefer the clean shaven look of the traditional Thor.

[Canis Sapiens]

Me too. And Thor's still young in this movie. Maybe on the sequels he'll grow a beard.

[chiefchirpa]

No, you're selling this movie to kids. And kids love younger looking protagonist.

BTW, current Thor is also clean shaven.

[Lobo]

I love the beard, but for his proper cinematic debut, I want a clean shaven Thor.

[Timstuff]

He should have 3 day fuzz going on because that'd look bad ass.

[Philly Phanboy]

At least a hint of a beard.

This will likely be promoted as more of a fantasy genre than your typical superhero flick so they should go with a more rugged look on the hero rather than clean cut. Please just say no to the Eragon look KB. :O

[TheCorpulent1]

I'd go for bearded Thor. A neat, trimmed beard, though. Bearded Thor is in every way superior to unbearded Thor. :oldrazz:

[spider-neil]

no beard.

[Vartha]

I'd say wait on the Beard even tho one of my all time favorite looks is Lord Thor. The beard to me says wisdom, and Thor may be a experienced warrior But I would wait on the beard. This is supposed to be his introduction and I'd go clean shavin' because of the chance this IS still the banishment story and he would be younger.

[afan]

Odin has the beard.

[TheCorpulent1]

Odin has a beard. Thor can have one, too. :oldrazz:

[afan]

Point is so many of the Thor pantheon have beards(our facial hair) a clean shaven Thor sets him apart.

[TheCorpulent1]

In my world, there's no such thing as a Norseman without a beard. That's one thing that's always bugged me about Thor.

[Vartha]

Well Marvel's Thor has always been LOOSELY based on myth even with Walt Simonson and JMS' runs being closely written in the same manner as the myths.
To ME like I said a Bearded Thor just tells me he has more wisdom in the 616 universe.

[Chewy]

Beard-less for Thor and Bearded for Avengers

[highguard]

The beardless Thor will work more for the movies and the target audience and that is also the most common look in the comics.

Again I defer to Jack Kirby's choices, over other greats such as Simonson, who gave him a beard........ for short periods of time.

[protocida]

No beard.

[Hyperstorm]

In my world, there's no such thing as a Norseman without a beard. That's one thing that's always bugged me about Thor.

Then it's a good thing Thor isn't a Norseman, he's an Asgardian.

[TheCorpulent1]

Semantics. :oldrazz:

[antmanx68]

I think it depends on how Chris looks in the costume, he may need a beard to toughen him up a bit.

A good artist could draw him cleanshaven and still intimidating, might be harder for a young, good looking dude to pull off.. I think that Hemsworth may need one, I hope its at least being considered.

[TheCorpulent1]

Hemsworth looks pretty tough in normal clothes to me. Once he's done bulking up for Thor, I imagine he'll look even tougher, too. I don't think the beard would do much other than age him a bit, so I doubt they'll give him one. Still, I can dream...

[RachelDawes]

I'd say wait on the Beard even tho one of my all time favorite looks is Lord Thor. The beard to me says wisdom, and Thor may be a experienced warrior But I would wait on the beard. This is supposed to be his introduction and I'd go clean shavin' because of the chance this IS still the banishment story and he would be younger.

So Thor grows a beard as his movies progress. I like this idea. It's a nice compromise. :up:

[Lobo]

Well, thanks to the Perfect getaway trailer, we know Chris can grow an awesome beard, so no worries there.

[Anubis]

Gotta have the beard. Thor just seems more Thor with a beard.

[Panthro]

Well Marvel's Thor has always been LOOSELY based on myth even with Walt Simonson and JMS' runs being closely written in the same manner as the myths.
To ME like I said a Bearded Thor just tells me he has more wisdom in the 616 universe.
Yeah, isn't the real/original Thor of the myths supposed to have red hair? Giving Thor blonde hair makes him look like a better dressed He-Man (whom he predates by about 20 years, to say nothing of a few hundred years).

I'd be cool with Thor having a beard. We need more bearded superheroes.

[JackIvyGB]

I voted yes for the beard, but I had this idea. Thor starts out clean shaven. Shenanigans ensue, Thor is banished to earth. As Thor wanders earth, the beard sets in. Not a huge epic beard, just accumulating scruffiness. Something that grows over the days and looks cool in the final battle. Then, at the end of the movie, Fury invites Thor to meet with him. He walks in clean shaven and Fury makes a comment about how he liked the scruffy look.

Thoughts?

[Infinity9999x]

I'd go for bearded Thor. A neat, trimmed beard, though. Bearded Thor is in every way superior to unbearded Thor. :oldrazz:


100% agreed. When he has the beard he channels his inner Chuck Norris. Without the beard he channels his inner Backstreet Boy. I think you know which one is better.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Both would work perfectly, IMO. Maybe he'll have a scruffy look later on in the movie or something. :up:

[Agent 194]

to the question of a beard...I say thee NAY!

[Spider-Vader]

No beard for the first movie. Is there any pics of Thor with the beard in the classic outfit? I know he has on in the Ultimates & the whole thing looks lame.

[TheCorpulent1]

Hmm...cool cover. Is that some late Buscema work? John not Sal. Sure looks it. Even with Buscema's work I still say thee nay.

[Judson Caspian]

No beard. I want the Thor I remember from growing up. Besides, a beard makes him look old and tired. I don't want that from a friggin' god.

[TheCorpulent1]

Hmm...cool cover. Is that some late Buscema work? John not Sal. Sure looks it. Even with Buscema's work I still say thee nay.
Yeah, it's John Buscema's work. I miss the days when you could have both Thor and Hercules on the Avengers at the same time.

[Brian Braddock]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v71/thecorpulent1/Thor/276-16.jpg

Heh, remember that issue.

Isnt that the one where Hyde beats Jarvis to within an inch of his life and then knocks himself out by walking around a corner into Thor's chest? :hehe:

Seem to recall that is causes Thor to flinch slightly too (as he was having some power issues at the time)......................


Anyways, back to the thread proper - Brazilian or 70's bush?

hmmm......I say Brazilian, with an option for 70's bush in the sequels.

[THOR]

I also say NO to the beard for the first film. If they do it right and get a sequel greenlit, then perhaps Thor can sport the beard in the next film?

simonson's beard makes thor look hard, busema's beard makes thor look like wino

[Steve Holt]

stubble

[Ace of Knaves]

I think he should start off clean shaven. To emphasize his immaturity and youthfulness compared to the other Gods.

Then when he get's banished, and matures, he should get the beard.

Maybe I'm putting too much thought into it but I think that could be a good way to symbolize his change in attitude from a arrogant, immature, quick tempered youth. To a mature and noble man.

[TheCorpulent1]

simonson's beard makes thor look hard, busema's beard makes thor look like wino
Both of them are really thick. If movie-Thor has a beard, I'd want it to be close-cropped and neatly trimmed. I think shaggy beards age people a lot more than a clean, trimmed beard.

[Brian Braddock]

Not to mention making a person look like a Hobo.

A beard similiar to the one that Arnie rocked when he was in the prison at the beginning of 'The Running Man' would be awesome.

[Ace of Knaves]

You love that beard don't ya Bri :D

[Brian Braddock]

What can I say?

As I get older, it's looks more and more like a viable look. I may have to go that route soon too.

:D

[Ace of Knaves]

Nothing wrong with that, it is a very cool beard.

[Brian Braddock]

Almost as good as this one:-

The real question here is whether or not Sif should have a beard

That is, the question to end all questions.

[Vartha]

The real question here is whether or not Sif should have a beard
Sif is a fertility Goddess in myth...don't really think she uses "the PILL";)

[co2]

I always preferred the beard, as he seems more like a Viking.
Maybe when he arrives on Earth in m odern eera, he can shave.

[Tarnish]

Bestow upon the son of Odin the most manly of facepets!

Err.. that is, I prefer a beard on him.

Hey, worked for the King in 300

[Spidey-Quad]

I didn't like the beard back when Thor's face got scarred in the Simionson yarn of "brittle" Thor, but it did grow on me. But I had to vote NAY for the first movie I want a perfect Thor right down to the comics original costume, with the caveat they could make it slightly barberian looking by making the circles armour, etc.

What I really want is for this movie to be successful and rock.

doesn't caveat mean 'let him beware'? I don't understand the context in which you've used the word.

[TheCorpulent1]

In the context, it's just a qualification. Its meaning has expanded a lot over the years.

[Spider-Vader]

If they use something similar to the classic costume. Then no beard ever. The beard looks stupid as hell with that costume IMO.

[Philly Phanboy]

If they use something similar to the classic costume. Then no beard ever. The beard looks stupid as hell with that costume IMO.

You also have to keep in mind what the actual actor would look like with a beard though.

Do a quick google of all the Hemsworth pics with and without facial hair and see if you still think he should go without a beard. I'd post comparison pics but I'm too lazy today. :o

[ironman29758]

I think beard! It shows widsom and asgardians are basicly viking gods/norsemens. Thor without a beard look like a girl with a flat chest imo

[Aztec]

I'd like to see him with a beard, but the reality is Hemsworth is a good looking young man and they are going to want to show off his pretty little face. He WILL be beardless. It's all about marketing.

[Colossal Spoons]

I think he should appear both bearded and unbearded in the movie :up:

[General Fury]

For Certain

I think he should appear both bearded and unbearded in the movie :up:

how would they do that? (in your opinion)

I prefer the clean shaven look of the traditional Thor.
agreed.

[Colossal Spoons]

Time is nothing for Asgardians. He could have a beard one day and be shaved a century later. The movie could just take place over a long period of time.

[General Fury]

Time is nothing for Asgardians. He could have a beard one day and be shaved a century later. The movie could just take place over a long period of time.

so do you think he should age in the film? or like he's just changing his look?

[TheCorpulent1]

Boils down to basically the same thing, doesn it? Thor in, say, 1000 BC would look pretty much the same as Thor in AD 1000.

[General Fury]

Boils down to basically the same thing, doesn it? Thor in, say, 1000 BC would look pretty much the same as Thor in AD 1000.

True.

[Colossal Spoons]

Just changing his look. Thor will be 30-something forever :D

[TheCorpulent1]

20-something for the movie. ;)

[Colossal Spoons]

Ah yes lol

[General Fury]

20-something for the movie. ;)

yup yup:boba:

[Sawyer]

Beard.

Why? Because Thor is a man. :D

[Wally West]

I voted no beard, but it really wouldn't bother me one way or the other.

I think someone should start a Cape/no cape, and a helmet/no helmet thread as well.

[Raiden]

I voted for beard, but I think a little fuzz should be good enough. Full beard would make him look too old.

[Jamie Madrox]

I prefer the clean shaven look for Thor. I wouldn't mind a five 0'clock shadow though.

[Lightning Strykez!]

I can go either way on this issue. I'd say give him a clean lip but a goatee. OR...a serious 5 o'clock shadow would be fine. But not just a beard...and certainly not 100% shaven either.

[General Fury]

I can go either way on this issue. I'd say give him a clean lip but a goatee. OR...a serious 5 o'clock shadow would be fine. But not just a beard...and certainly not 100% shaven either.

that's what i bet they'll do.

[Hypestyle]

As much as i appreciate the bearded Thor, there's no way in Hel that the filmmakers will give him that in the movie.. at best, he'll have some minor stubble..

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, I don't think anybody's seriously expecting them to give Thor a beard for the movie. His "classic" look is clean-shaven (even if that look is totally inferior to his bearded one :oldrazz:).

[Brian Braddock]

Yeah - Marvel wouldnt want to put off all those teenage girls from a buying ticket just to see Hemsworth by having Thor wear an icky old mans beard.


:D

[DayMan207]

Let's go no beard for now. If he has one, its not the end of the world.

[Son of Coul]

Since they're going for a "younger", more immature Thor in his solo film, no beard. Then belt it out in The Avengers to hold his own against more mature/older-looking members and general badass-ity.

[TheCorpulent1]

See, I'd go the opposite way. The beard makes Thor look more like a viking badass, so I say use it if his movie is going to feature him in Asgard a lot. But when he's with the Avengers, he's meant to project a clean-cut protector of the innocent image, so no beard there.

[Son of Coul]

Ah, good point. I guess it'd work either way, but at some point he's gotta rock the beard.

[TheCorpulent1]

That would be great but, again, I'm not getting my hopes up.

[Brian Braddock]

Hemsworth looks good clean shaven:-

http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b64/SUPERBENITEZ/zz-2.jpg

But, here's some proof that Hemsworth can rock the facial fuzz and still look cool:-

http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b64/SUPERBENITEZ/hemsworth.jpg

Now, imagine that and the hair together;

Along with a big, ol' hammer...................

[Octoberist]

You could give him a light beard but nothign too thick.

[Steel Thunder]

To be(ard) or not to be(ard)...

TO BEARD!

[Mad Ones]

Maybe in different parts of the movie we could see him with different amounts of facial hair. Bearded before he gets banished or whatever happens, and than after that clean shaven/light stubble.

[CWP]

Beard please. Like this would be nice:
http://comicsmedia.ign.com/comics/image/article/740/740818/ultimate-alliance-costume-parade-20061020035200699-000.jpg

[TheWatcher]

1st-stubble
2nd-beard
avengers-goatee like above

[TheCorpulent1]

I don't think Thor should ever have a goatee, personally. Full and manly beard or no beard at all.

[Sebastos]

No beard, maybe in the sequel yes. But the first isn't even out yet so we'll see.

[Cdnmouse]

I would say Yes To the Beard. Makes him look more "Norse" and kicka$$ ish

[Young Superman]

I love the beard, but for his proper cinematic debut, I want a clean shaven Thor.
Agreed

[Artanis]

I think Thor should have his bearded look in the Avengers, and a slightly bearded look toward the end of his first film. The fuzz just looks fantastic on him, imo, but I won't be disappointed or anything if they opt to have him clean shaven throughout. I'm just pleased and eager that we're getting a Thor movie! :D

[Brian Braddock]

Just to give everyone a bit of a visual as to how the hair and beard would look:-

http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b64/SUPERBENITEZ/23beard1.jpg


:D

[Artanis]

And looking at that, I really can't help but wonder why not a lot of us girls like long hair and facial fuzz :[

Why can't they see how handsome it makes a man look? (provided he can pull it off - otherwise, it's just gonna look like bum fluff on their face XD)

[Canis Sapiens]

Just to give everyone a bit of a visual as to how the hair and beard would look:-

The Mighty Jesus? :hehe:

[TheCorpulent1]

That's certainly a mighty beard.

[Webhead2006]

i wouldnt mind seeing a beard for thor, though probably something smaller/shorter and not so bushy like that above picture.

[Aeltri]

So Thor grows a beard as his movies progress. I like this idea. It's a nice compromise. :up:

Indeed, it ties the modern re-imagining of Nordic mythology with it's more traditional roots in Viking culture.

[Gmanofsteel]

Not a fan of the beard but it depends on which look they go with.

[Triad]

I prefer the beard, but admit that the film-makers will probably not go that route. Most likely a stubbly Indiana Jones-ish one, if any at all.

[Webhead2006]

i wouldnt mind a small beard, trimmed and looks nice, i doubt they would ever go bushy type of beard.

[BigSams50]

^ Yea thats what i was thinking

[Webhead2006]

what about looks like these:

Ugh, totally unfit for a Norse god. They need manlier facial hair than that, especially since Thor is blonde. His beard wouldn't contrast as well with his skin as those guys', so it would look even thinner.

[RachelDawes]

He could have a beard in Asgard and shave it off when he comes to Earth because some human tells him the long hair and beard combo makes him look like a bum. :hehe:

"There are two kinds of people in this world that go around beardless — boys and women — and I am neither one." -Greek saying

He needs to have the beard at some point, either in his own movie or in Avengers.

[craigdbfan]

Beardless. They have to start him out without a beard.

Never been a huge fan of the beard anyway. I could do without it for future films as well.

[Paroxysm]

Beard!

[Aeltri]

Just pick one from the chart :dry::

Thor without a beard is like Wolverine without a beard.

[SpiderByte]

He'd look to old with the beard. Maybe in the second film, but not the first.

[SpiderByte]

http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b362/aimelek/beardtypes1.jpg

Imagine Thor with the Super Mario one.

"Itsa me, Thunder God!"

[spider-neil]

no beard. there have been over 600 hundred issues of thor and I'd esitmate thor has appeared in a beard in less than 50 of those issues.
that like having daredevil appear in his movie in the yellow and black outfit.

[screams]

No beard. To me he is not Thor with it.

[Webhead2006]

they will probably end up with no beard for now.

[marcvader]

Nay to beard in first Thor, yay to it appearing later.

[BigSams50]

No beard....maybe a soul patch

[TheCorpulent1]

I would probably break something if I ever saw Thor with a soul patch.

[Hound55]

imagine thor with the super mario one.

"itsa me, thunder god!"
golden!!!

[Hound55]

That chart is missing "Unkempt hobo", which leaves me feeling disappointed and, frankly, unrepresented...

[Ace of Knaves]

It also doesn't appear to have a Leonidas beard either. Disappointing indeed.

[TheCorpulent1]

I thought Leonidas had the "Short Boxed Beard."

[BigSams50]

I would probably break something if I ever saw Thor with a soul patch.
:lmao::lmao::lmao:

[SpiderByte]

Thor without a beard is like Wolverine without a beard.

Wolverine doesn't exactly have a 'beard'.

[TheCorpulent1]

He pretty much does in his most recent movie. I think there's about an inch and a half of his chin that isn't covered in hair.

But yeah, he's supposed to have really enormous mutton chops, not a full beard.

[Diamondhead]

Thor is a young God of only 500 years old so
it's definitly no! no! no!:cmad::cmad::cmad:

[Diamondhead]

Seriously how old is Thor anyway?
I remembered having this discussion with on of my childhood friend
and he told me since Thor was reborn in the middle age he has to be around 500 years old.

[Brian Braddock]

I havent a clue to be honest, sorry dude. Maybe some folk on here who know a bit more about Thor will be able to help.

What I do know is that I was looking through some classic Buscema Thor stories recently and quite honestly, call me crazy if you want, but I think I saw a little Hemsworth in JB's Thor face.

[TheCorpulent1]

Thor is at least over 1,000 years old. He met the Eternals 1,000 years ago. Anything earlier than that becomes a bit confusing because of the Ragnarok cycles and the fact that time is said to pass differently in Asgard.

[Brian Braddock]

I wonder if he has trouble recalling the name of someone he met 1,000 years ago?

I mean, I have trouble recalling the name of someone I met yesterday ffs.

[Diamondhead]

Thor is at least over 1,000 years old. He met the Eternals 1,000 years ago. Anything earlier than that becomes a bit confusing because of the Ragnarok cycles and the fact that time is said to pass differently in Asgard.
yeah but didn't he passed through a time portal or something ?

[Agent 194]

to a beard.....I say thee NAY. And you can guess what I think about even a little Shakespearean type language.

[Brian Braddock]

Yea verilly?

[TheCorpulent1]

yeah but didn't he passed through a time portal or something ?
No, he left Asgard via the rainbow bridge. You're probably thinking of the time Thor found himself in the middle of the Trojan War. He followed Loki into a system of underground caves, lost his memory, and stumbled out into ancient Troy. Those caves may or may not have taken him into the past as well as to the physical location of Troy, but the issue's not 100% clear on it. For all we know, Thor might have just gone to Troy in the time of the Trojan War and be over 3,000 years old.

[Agent 194]

Ah Brian. You're funny. Khan said to McCoy...."I like a brave man". I like a man with a sense of humor.

[irapogi]

depends on how it looks on the actor. im fine either way.

[Stripesy Strip]

A good compromise would be giving him a beard until he turns into Donald Blake. The mix of the two identities would have him borrow a bit of the two to form a new Thor, less barbarian.

[TheCorpulent1]

That's a good idea. Although Don Blake isn't in the film, according to Kevin Feige.

[Webhead2006]

should be interesting to see how his looks will be.

[Chris Wallace]

Beard.

[Captain America]

Beard i say

[Webhead2006]

well he is likely going to be beardless for the film.

[Captain America]

well he is likely going to be beardless for the film.

I'm hopin' at least he'll have scruff.. Kinda like Aragorn

[Ratcrawler]

Yeah, the beard was my favorite thing about Ultimate Thor. I never cared for the Fabio look. It's too pretty boy and not badass viking god enough. I'd be happy to see him in both looks though.

But the question is, can Hemsworth pull off a rockin' beard?

[Webhead2006]

well i would like to see a beard too but they likely want the clean shaven look for the first film.

[Spider-Fan83]

But the question is, can Hemsworth pull off a rockin' beard?

he pulled off the look he had in, A Perfect Getaway, pretty good

[Timstuff]

Glad to see that the majority of Hypsters want a bearded Thor. Vikings with beards are far more bad ass, and as someone of Nordic descent I am proud to wear one myself. :up:

[TheCorpulent1]

I'm surprised they gave him a beard for the film, given that he's been beardless for the majority of his comics. But I'm happy. I much prefer Thor with a beard.

[DocHoliday]

Yeah I like the idea of him having a beard. I can grow a beard, just not an epic viking beard.

[Vartha]

I have Scandinavian in me and Can't grow a full beard, it's all patchy, BUT I do grow a killer German goatee when it's long.

[Timstuff]

My beard is a little patchy so I can't grow it out too much without it looking stupid. I can make it look a lot denser by shaving it into shape, though, which makes the edges of it look a lot more definied. I can't grow a big viking or Santa Claus beard, but I don't think I'd want one anyway.

LOL, look at us... Here's a board for the Thor movie and here we are talking about our own beards. :D

[TheCorpulent1]

I can't grow a beard at all. It just looks like weedy stubble if I don't shave. And it sucks because I'd totally grow a beard if I could. :csad:

[NickNitro]

As much I am liking the beard and see that he has in fact grown one a bit for the movie Id have to say no as well, at least not for his movie. I agree that having the beard for the Avengers movie would work but I just would like to see him without one for Thor.

[Webhead2006]

yea i too was wondering which way they were going to go with the film. So its interesting to see they went with beard. Or maybe we could have it both. Start of film bearless but when he is on earth has beard.

[Son of Coul]

Looking at the first few pages is cool, 'cuz everyone's like "ahh they wanna get teenage girls and kids to see it so there's no way there'll be a beard, but I wish..." then one day- BAM! Hemsworth reveals the beard in all its beardy glory! Marvel Studios continues to surprise with its fan-support. Little things like this and the Invaders and the suitcase armor and "HULK SMASH!" are just the cool things that we don't expect them to do and accept that but they do it anyway and shows they give a **** beyond pleasing just the GA, and hell- even critics.

[Webhead2006]

totally its great.

[Captain America]

Hell yes I say - He needs to have sort of a Scandinavian look to him, not all young and perfect

[Deaths Head II]

I always loved bearded Thor. I was always meh on beardless Thor.

[Bad Superman]

For the first movie? No. For sequels? Yes.

[TikkiEXX]

i love Bearded Thor. glad theyre going with it for the movie.

[Webhead2006]

well they could very well have shaved and beard in the film.

[hugekent]

For the first movie? No. For sequels? Yes.
I voted yes but I'd actually prefer this.

If anything at least scruffy. Thor looks a lot cooler with a beard IMO.

Maybe his beard will gradually grow through the first movie... :D

Hemsworth confirmed the beard a couple of weeks ago at his brother's movie's premiere

[Webhead2006]

yea chewy, and he looks good in a beard, for me i dont really matter for either. And like i said he could be shaved and beard in the film.

[Anubis Raptor]

Yeah bearded Thor looks pretty cool. But beardless Thor is nice as well.
But I wonder if Thor's beard will be shaped up or shaggy and wild looking.

[Webhead2006]

well its probably just as we saw chris at his brother's film premeire.

[TomPiltoff]

I think Thor looks like a wuss.

If you're gonna give him a beard, give him a big badass viking beard, not some neatly trimmed male model junk. Same deal with his chest. Thor oughta be disgustingly hairy and manly, not clean shaven.

A goatee is worse than no beard at all. Yet another way Ultimate Thor fails. :oldrazz:

Are you reading the Ultimate Thor mini by John Hickman?It's great and might change your opinion about this version of the god of thunder.:word:

[TheCorpulent1]

Nope. I'm buying enough Thor stuff as it is. The Mighty Avenger's version was instantly likable and fun, so he's filling my quota for alternate universe Thors pretty well.
