Comic Con Trailer Description

[Superman]

That was amazing!!!!! That is the Thor I've been hoping for. If Cap and GL is as good as this looks it's going to be a fun 2011.:woot::woot:

[roach]

its online

[Archrivals]

Yeah it's done...

[roach]

awesome

[Whiskey Tango]

There you go.

[roach]

its awesome

[blinkuldhc]

Does it count as a bootlegged video?

[roach]

i dont know...looks pretty legit to me...just need to see Thor fly and I am good with this flick

[Rock Sexton]

What is the green box Loki goes to grab?

[roach]

if I remember it looks like the casket of winters...or something named like that

[BrollySupersj]

The ending sold it for me. Seeing the Destroyer...I just...I can't even describe how awesome it was just standing there. The laser blast was freaking awesome.

[misjuevos]

can't wait to see thor fly and open a portal

[Rock Sexton]

if I remember it looks like the casket of winters...or something named like that

I think you're right ...........

http://marvel.com/universe/Casket_of_Ancient_Winters

[Archrivals]

What is the green box Loki goes to grab?

I was wondering that as well. I don't think it's the Cosmic Cube...

[Vartha]

www.**************s.com (http://www.**************s.com)
for how long tho? I'm not sure it's official yet or not.

[roach]

dammmit is every Marvel artifact going to be in this movie

for how long tho? I'm not sure it's official yet or not.

it looks pretty official...its not a comic con crowd vid

[Vartha]

if I remember it looks like the casket of winters...or something named like that
Casket of Ancient Winters, one of Walt's best stories IMO.

[roach]

I was wondering that as well. I don't think it's the Cosmic Cube...

Casket of Ancient Winters

[Spider-X]

oh....oh that's so freaking BEAUTIFUL!!!!

[Figs]

Did someone leak the trailer or pics? What's everyone talking about?

[Vartha]

it looks pretty official...its not a comic con crowd vid
What if it is stolen? I'm not to sure about any of the release of it yet.
Unless this IS official and paramount wanted the better one on-line but then the countdown code wouldn't be there

[Archrivals]

Casket of Ancient Winters

Thanks...

[roach]

Casket of Ancient Winters, one of Walt's best stories IMO.

I wonder if Odin has the Nega bands, Quantum Bands, Star Brand and the Ultimate Nullifier????

What if it is stolen? I'm not to sure about any of the release of it yet.
Unless this IS official and paramount wanted the better one on-line but then the countdown code wouldn't be there

I wouldnt put it here...if thats what you are asking...watch and be happy

I watched it without having to sign up

[Vartha]

I wouldnt put it here...if thats what you are asking...watch and be happy
Downloaded it from another place :D I was happy with the Live footage, still want EVERYONE to see it!

[FaT_tONle]

Did someone leak the trailer or pics? What's everyone talking about?

Yeah I just saw the five minute trailer a few minutes ago...

[Vartha]

GODS I want to make wallpapers but I'll wait for an ok!

[Slick]

That was so amazing. MAJOR NERDGASM:awesome:

[Matt Mortem]

HOLY ****ING ****!!!!!!!! Thor looks amazing. I have never been so excited to see a film in my life until now!!!!! WoweeWoooweewow!

[Figs]

That looks badass!!

Flash Gordon my ass lol

[misjuevos]

the part where thor jumps in the air reminds me of the trailer from clash of the titans when worthington jumps in the air.

[Figs]

the part where thor jumps in the air reminds me of the trailer from clash of the titans when worthington jumps in the air.

At least we won't have to worry about Thor saying "i'm a man!" throughout the movie though.:hehe:

That one quick scene of the frost giants was pretty cool. I think the smaller thing he punches might be a minion to the giants. That's just my guess.

[roach]

or the Frost Giants can change size

[S.A.A.D.]

That looks badass!!

Flash Gordon my ass lol

AGREED. Peoples. >.<

[Chewy]

But I really think Hemsworth gives a one-note performance in this trailer :o

[Figs]

or the Frost Giants can change size

Can they do that in the comics?

By the way, thanks Vartha for the link!

[Vartha]

That looks badass!!

Flash Gordon my ass lol
Fig man we keep telling ya make your OWN decisions lol

[roach]

Can they do that in the comics?

By the way, thanks Vartha for the link!

i dont know

[Figs]

Fig man we keep telling ya make your OWN decisions lol

???

I was never one of the ones who said it was going to be like Flash Gordon, i've always liked the pics they were releasing. That comment was towards all the people who were jumping to conclusions.

[Rock Sexton]

But I really think Hemsworth gives a one-note performance in this trailer :o

Marvel's gonna get what they paid for. I knew we'd never get an oscar-worthy performance out of him, just hoping the action and his stature sort of make up for it.

[misjuevos]

i just hope hemsworth doesnt choke on his accent like worthington did in clash, his accent was all over the place. i hope hemsworth being around all those brits has a good brit accent.

now time to find that captain america footage,lol

[Chewy]

Marvel's gonna get what they paid for. I knew we'd never get an oscar-worthy performance out of him, just hoping the action and his stature sort of make up for it.
I'm actually being sarcastic, as that was a complaint a writer for a movie site (slashfilm I think) levied against this traler. A completely ridiculous complaint, as this is a trailer

[Archrivals]

What if it is stolen? I'm not to sure about any of the release of it yet.
Unless this IS official and paramount wanted the better one on-line but then the countdown code wouldn't be there

Plus they have the revision & WIP info listed...

[Vartha]

???

I was never one of the ones who said it was going to be like Flash Gordon, i've always liked the pics they were releasing. That comment was towards all the people who were jumping to conclusions.
I just saying the haters are gonna naturally say crappy things and by the way it was Roach that posted the new link. I got it from another source earlier.

[Figs]

I just saying the haters are gonna naturally say crappy things and by the way it was Roach that posted the new link. I got it from another source earlier.

I understand, I never agreed with the Flash Gordon comments since I thought the armor looked fine compared to all the pics you guys were posting from the comics. :up:

Thanks for the link Roach.

[roach]

I just saying the haters are gonna naturally say crappy things and by the way it was Roach that posted the new link. I got it from another source earlier.

Et tu Vartha???

[Vartha]

now time to find that captain america footage,lol
hahaha way to early for that yet.

[roach]

and its gone

[misjuevos]

they were both shown so must be somewhere

[Vartha]

Et tu Vartha???
What? :D I jumped on it right off Roach. I had no idea at the time if it'd be online and I have friends in England wanting it.

[Superman]

Who was that green lizard looking guy in the trailer?:huh::huh:

[roach]

What? :D I jumped on it right off Roach. I had no idea at the time if it'd be online and I have friends in England wanting it.

no i was joking with ya when you said i posted the link:woot:

damn i should have downloaded it

Who was that green lizard looking guy in the trailer?:huh::huh:

maybe a troll

[Vartha]

Who was that green lizard looking guy in the trailer?:huh::huh:
I'm sure that was a Frost Giant

[ClintF]

Once you guys find a new site that still has the trailer up the right click on the page and select "View Page Source" to find the address for the embedded video of the trailer, it will end in .flv then copy the address then go here http://www.convertdirect.com and paste address and download vid. Hope that helps some of ya out

[roach]

for some reason the media player doesnt load for me anymore

[misjuevos]

i hope loki is the villain in avengers controlling hulk.

[roach]

hehehe just had to reset my safari

[calibud]

Asgard looks fantastic. And Destroyer looks great as well.

[Vartha]

so everyone has seen it a couple times now, what did you think. i think volstagg is small and unkempt looking. he kinda looks like a small ginger hagrid. loki looks ****ing amazing. he is my favorite, his helmet his clothes the actor all seem perfect.
I was HOPING Hogun would have a mace, and he DOES!
Volstagg is great looking IMO, I hope they get his Character right.
Fandral looks ALOT like Errol Flynn as he should.
LOVE Sif's armor
Seeing everything in detail now is fantastic!
Destroyer is frakin HUGE, I couldn't tell he was that tall in the live Feed.

[Vartha]

hehehe just had to reset my safari
heh I had this look of panic on you face. lol

[roach]

i was about to ragnarok my mac

[DarthSkywalker]

The more I watch it, the more I see flaws in it, which I guess is normal. Asgard looks really small, very corridor like. I know people don't like the Flash Gordon reference, but how they stage it feels like an 80s sci-fi film. The world feels empty and stage-like. A lot of shiny and weightless bits. The scene with Thor and Sif fighting reminds me of a back alley from Batman '89. As if only those fighting exist.

Ya, I hope there's something they could do in post-production to fix some of that. Again, would've preferred some non "stage" locales for some of this.

[misjuevos]

we still have a good amount of time before this is released so the visual effects will be vastly improved by release.

[rashad]

I wasn't blown away. But that's not to say I'm writing this film off this early.

[DarthSkywalker]

we still have a good amount of time before this is released so the visual effects will be vastly improved by release.

It doesn't really have much to do with visual effects though does it? Unless they are really good at CGI human beings and sets.

[misjuevos]

adjusting the lighting and grain can really change the way something looks.

[Vartha]

i was about to ragnarok my mac
hahaha

[meowth49]

Do you think Odin is dying or entering the Odinsleep due to being weakened by Thors actions?

[Vartha]

Hoping it's an Odin Sleep, but Kenneth did say he grabbed ideas from all the stories to make the first film. It's hard to say yet.

[roach]

have to admit there are some interesting comments there. lol

its AICN....you'er required to hate everything and mention genatalia

Do you think Odin is dying or entering the Odinsleep due to being weakened by Thors actions?

or weakened due to Loki's actions

[LadyVader]

My favorite thing about the trailer was Loki. I think Hiddleston looks great, he's got those big creepy eyes. Close second is Sif. But overall, the thing looks kinda cheap.

[misjuevos]

maybe that green stuff was something loki used to poison odin

[meowth49]

Hoping it's an Odin Sleep, but Kenneth did say he grabbed ideas from all the stories to make the first film. It's hard to say yet.

Yeah me too, I hope he doesnt die. But it seems once Thor comes back to Asgard after defeating Loki's forces he'll rush to Odins bedside and he'll awaken.

I'm really impressed with Hopkins as Odin, he's fragile, cold, emotional, scary, tearful, sad, all in a few seconds in the trailer. what a coupe!!

[Octoberist]

I saw it. Looks good.

we still have a good amount of time before this is released so the visual effects will be vastly improved by release.

That's why these pre-trailers shouldn't be leaked. While it's NICE there's just too many ignorant people out there who will judge without rhyme or reason.

[Gamma Burst]

That's why these pre-trailers shouldn't be leaked. While it's NICE there's just too many ignorant people out there who will judge without rhyme or reason.

Well said.:word:

[S.A.A.D.]

Reading those remarks on AICN about the Thor movie makes me honestly hate humanity more. Especially that one female poster?!

[Punk&ComicBooks]

Do you think Odin is dying or entering the Odinsleep due to being weakened by Thors actions?


I never really read Thor comics but I know more about the actual Norse mythology and I think Odinsleep is really just the time of winter where he eventually wakes up in the spring time so if Odinsleep isnt any different in the comics then he must be dying. Plus why would someone need to take his place if he was just sleeping?

[misjuevos]

i can't wait to see some magic and the thunder and lightning. its been raining hard here and all i can do is think of this movie. the thunder and lightning outside is epic, can't wait to see what they do with the effects of mjolnir.

[roach]

honestly i am calling fail on this whole thing...none of the characters were fleshed out fully. Yet another movie where the main characters are overwhelmed by Shield. Jus complete and utter failure.....

in the comics the Odinsleep was something he did periodicly to replenish his power and he'd leave a regent in his absence

[misjuevos]

someone mentioned it earlier i just noticed the rainbow bridge

[meowth49]

honestly i am calling fail on this whole thing...none of the characters were fleshed out fully. Yet another movie where the main characters are overwhelmed by Shield. Jus complete and utter failure.....

HA! overwhelmed by shield? I dont think so, theyre crapping their blue jumpsuits in this one

[Gamma Burst]

wow You came to this conclusion based on a few minutes of a trailer?

[roach]

wow You came to this conclusion based on a few minutes of a trailer?

I was being sarcastic:woot:

[misjuevos]

its funny the beginning is coulson saying how did you take out all me men, guess thor was overwhelmed by their weakness

[misjuevos]

yea some sarcasm is hard to pick up in text

[misjuevos]

anyone find the cap footage anywhere?

[roach]

its funny the beginning is coulson saying how did you take out all me men, guess thor was overwhelmed by their weakness

I was trying to be funny but I was mentioning overwhelming in the same way people complained that Shield took up too much time in IM2 from the main characters

[Gamma Burst]

I was being sarcastic:woot:

LOL.For a moment,I thought so,but it's hard to tell without the smileys!:woot:

[roach]

well someone should invent sarcasm font

[misjuevos]

maybe this would work

[roach]

maybe this would work

now you are just being sarcastic

[misjuevos]

so now we seen it lets speculate why. after a couple days of nothing nowhere why now. its obviously leaked by studio or else it would be on youtube instead of all these other sites. so i would think maybe the studio was reading some negative reviews and felt they need to stop it from spreading. so they figure the only ways it to show the GA the footage rather than let them read someone else's opinion on it. let them form their own opinion.

[roach]

actually most movie vids usually make it online a few days after comic con

[meowth49]

I loved the gratuitous Dr Pepper placement

[misjuevos]

i saw no dr pepper, was it in the lab?

[Stripesy Strip]

I hope the movie is good but I wasn't too impressed. The Warrior Three and Sif in particular were rather bad.

[meowth49]

also, whose the green guy?????

[meowth49]

i saw no dr pepper, was it in the lab?
theres a dr pepper vending machine outside the desert centre, when theyre carrying the little kids up to the truck

[Stripesy Strip]

What green guy? The guy with the eyes, Heimdall?

[Ajendo]

I havn't seen the trailer, only the screen caps and I'm already geeking out!

[meowth49]

What green guy? The guy with the eyes, Heimdall?
right after loki looks at that green box (cosmic cube?) a green head with red eyes rises up

[Stripesy Strip]

I've seen green eyes and it's Heimdall(guardian of the Rainbow Bridge).

[misjuevos]

I havn't seen the trailer, only the screen caps and I'm already geeking out!

watch it

[Chewy]

The Warrior Three and Sif in particular were rather bad.
In what way?

[meowth49]

I've seen green eyes and it's Heimdall(guardian of the Rainbow Bridge).

its at 3:39

[Chewy]

its at 3:39
He's blue. It's a frost giant

[misjuevos]

Lol What I meant was, I have the link to watch it, I was looking at the screen caps first. I'm so pumped it's ridiculous. But thanks for the link again.
ok, just makin sure everyone has a chance to see it, since we are now talking about it in detail

[Stripesy Strip]

its at 3:39

You know what I have no idea. He looks like snake being or something.

[Stripesy Strip]

In what way?

They don't look like the swashbucklers from the comics. For one thing they look rather young. Hogun especially is supposed to be the most badass warrior in the land. Hell the first sight of him, you melt. And here comes off like a young Jacky Chan. Completly out of character.

But I have faith in Stevensen. I think he can pull of the good heart jovial warrior.

[misjuevos]

the shield setup around mjolnir is strangely lacking a roof. obviously there will be a lightning bolt that comes down when thor is thor again. why did they build a testing facility without a roof. they are doing test on it, why would you just leave it out in the rain so to speak. when you run test you setup a controlled enviroment, not allow wind rain or anything to just fall on your experiment. also thor still has his strength or what.

[bullets]

I just watched the trailer at joblo.com and it exceeded my expectations . I'm amped for this movie.

[misjuevos]

he could be the frost giant

[psyonic]

But why keep it a secret?

[nogap87]

I just watched the trailer at joblo.com and it exceeded my expectations . I'm amped for this movie.


Ditto. As of now, Thor is my #1 most anticipated superhero flick for 2011. GL is 2nd and Cap is last. Though I hope they all turn out great.

[misjuevos]

yea looking at that picture of the frost giant its him.

[Stripesy Strip]

Maybe Thanos is green in the movie.

But it seems like these beings advancing (probably Thor releasing them by mistake?) have the same hat/haircut as the green guy. They could be demons or beings from Hela's domain or dark elves. Although they don't look like Malekith. The dark creature could be Hela(Mistress of Hel).

[Stripesy Strip]

But if it's the actor Feore, it would be funny as he would have a similar look to his character from Chronicles of Riddick. Hell I recognise him because it's the same hat. lol

[misjuevos]

im guessing its the leader of the frost giants. the main frost giant. they show thor and the others walking in a cold valley. they must meet the leader of the frost giants. i know loki is the leader, but the main frost giant. the one who leads the attacks so as to not reveal loki is in charge

[meowth49]

He's blue. It's a frost giant

Yeah probably, looks like hes in the entrance to Asgard, probably why Heimdall is getting fired up

[misjuevos]

it is funny that odin banishes thor with his own hammer. also you can see space from asgard it looks cool

[bholliday]

Wow, I had high expectations and this met them. The footage still has many filters and effects to be added, so atmosphere is something that can be further enhanced.

Asgard looked AMAZING.

Anywho, does anybody have a download link to the trailer before all the sites start getting smashed by marvel?

B

[nightwing06]

Looks a little slow paced but the fight/battle sequences should be quite good.I like the look of Asgard.

[protoctista]

I'm not a die-hard Thor fan, so I say this as an outsider;

That trailer looks absolutely, epically, mind-blowingly... awful. I cannot believe how bad that looks considering I was excited about the film beforehand.

Now, before you jump in. I'm not saying this just to trash or to troll or to be contrarian or whatever people call it when someone says something negative, I'm saying this because I watched the trailer with 5 other people who were not die-hard Thor fans, but who love comic book movies, and they all thought the movie looked appalling. Like, really really bad.

This is why I'm saying all this:
Does anyone else think that this film will have zero appeal to a movie-going audience outside of its fanbase?


Because, as a MASSIVE fan of comic books and comic book movies (I'm posting on this forum.... go figure), but not a Thor fan, having seen that trailer, I can now say that I have zero interest in that movie AT ALL. It looks like Fantastic Four 2.

[misjuevos]

i can't wait to see some lightning and thunderstorms

actually the general audience will watch anything. also this is not the trailer, just footage for comic con. im assuming the actual trailer will have thor and lightning bolts and magic and such. so this footage was for the comicbook fans who wanted to see footage and get an idea of how thor is going. the finished product will be much more polished and has a long time till release,so i wouldnt worry just yet. wait till an actual trailer.

[arman200]

If that's Feore, he could be Ymir, in which case It looks like they mixed the comic version of ymir with the movie alien of the same name:

I say wait awhile longer. There are several people who went the opposite direction, from not liking what they saw in the pics and loving the Trailer.
To ME being an artist, I love it. I love how they've combined the different Thor's and related Marvel Myth that goes with him. I understand what you're saying protoctista. Still tho it is hard to please everyone all the time lol. Wanting to like it is something I can't MAKE you do. I hope you stick around and see it anyway.

What ever happened to Joesph Gatt? He was hired late in the game and he never really said what for.

[Rac]

With the inclusion of the Infinity gauntlet, I'm starting to think Colm Feore's mysterious role is Thanos .. he has stated that it took 5 hours to apply his make-up.

http://www.**************.com/images/users/gallerypictures/14551L.JPG

http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/2/27967/649960-thanos_representing_super.jpg
But why make him green and not to look like anything like Thanos? I'm betting it's a Skrull.

[protoctista]

Believe me, I really DO want to like it. And I guess I'll wait a while longer and give it another chance; but it's hard to see how it can come back from that in my estimation. Obviously I'll be binging on humble pie if I turn out to be wrong.

like the above person mentioned. this is just a thrown together for comic-con. it's not the official trailer. most of the film is still in post production for the effects. wait until christmas for the real trailer.
good movies have appeal. look at avatar. people were saying way before it was released that it would be a letdown and not make back it's budget. look how that turned out. a lot of people know of thor....maybe not marvel's version but whats been passed down from legend. i would worry more about the green lantern film. blade is more well known to the general movie going audience then him and blade is only a third tier character in the marvel universe while GL is a top dog at DC. thor will be fine. a healthy domestic gross for it would be around $280-$300m....and it will make that.

[R_Hythlodeus]

OMG OMG OMG absolutely fantastic trailer!
My only complain is the delivery of the "you're an old fool" line
But this is a very minor complain. The trailer is just....
awesome

Like I said Hang around, see if it does change.

[Clown-Assasin]

I think it would be easier for me to lift Mjolnir from that plinth than to try and pry my jaw from the floor. AMAZING

hahaha great way to put CA hahaha

[J.Howlett]

Very interesting trailer. As always, I'll wait until the finished film but one thing that did catch my eye is Rene Russo. Either I missed this announcement or I just forgot. Either way, it's wonderful to see her in a film again. And she looks gorgeous.

There's some gravitas to this trailer but the look of the costumes look completely 80's fantasy style.

And as always, it's always great to have a little Portman in your film.

YES she's Frigga in Thor.

[R_Hythlodeus]

a little Portman
:hehe::hehe::hehe:

[xwolverine2]

seeing the trailer... the action looks pretty bland...

but everything else about the movie looks fantastic! from the cast, acting, and the dark tone of it all.

[Suzanne78]

I'm not a big THOR fan either. I've only just started the 2007 arc. My excitement for the project was based solely on Kenneth Branagh's involvement and the really brilliant casting decisions Marvel made.

Also, Chris Hemsworth is attractive, so that was a plus.

I just watched the trailer and the freakin' thing looked awesome! I mean... mind-blowing awesome. There was something retro-looking about the sets and the way the costumes looked, but somehow, it works for me here. I didn't ever get pulled out of the action or the footage itself. I didn't think it was cheesy looking. But I did think it worked perfectly with the whole look and approach Marvel was going for.

I can't wait for it now!

[misjuevos]

just wait till they cut a trailer with mjolnir shooting lightning and thor conjuring a storm or opening a portal or flying. wait till they show some magic. right now they just showed the characters and locations. the real trailer will have the effects. the only effects here was the cg asgard and destroyer armor.

[Darkness Falls]

*Faints due to the high levels of badassery* :D may seems soo far away :(

How cool does that slo-mo shot of Hemsworth in the rain @3:09 looks awesome. Hell his whole break-in to the complex looks awesome.

Thanks! I think seeing Renee Russo in a movie after so long, looking like she just stepped right out of Major League got my inner nostalgic 80's/90's fangirl squeeing. I had no idea she was in this project.

Branagh's looking at Kirby's Thor for the background, right? I'm really looking for the best/most recommended Thor arcs at the moment. Just finisehd Brubaker's Cap series, so definitely looking for more reading.

But all in all... this just looked epic. F'n epic!!

Kenneth used SEVERAL ideas from several story lines. the more I watch the more I see.
My personal THREE runs are Ages of Thunder (adaptaions of ACTUAL myth), Blood Oath, And the entire Reginning arc up to now.

[ultimatefan]

To each their own, but I have no idea how anyone can say the movie looks bad from that trailer. Of course a lot of FX are unfinished and stuff, but the story looks incredible, and I´m by no means a big Thor fanboy. The banishment of a fallen God who has brought war and destruction to his kingdom. forsaken by his father, betrayed by his brother, thrown down to learn humility and prove his worth, the commanding, majestic voice and presence of Anthony Hopkins, the badass Chris Hemsworth, the wonders of Asgard... Seriously I dunno what´s the deal with some people.

[Iron_Stark]

With the inclusion of the Infinity gauntlet, I'm starting to think Colm Feore's mysterious role is Thanos .. he has stated that it took 5 hours to apply his make-up.

On a serious note, this trailer looked Bad Ass! :awesome:

Bad Ass

looks aright, to be honest
kinda has a ridick vibe tho.

times like these I wonder what zack snyder would have done.

[venom892]

Now I'm not the biggest Thor fan but My god was that Tralier epic in scope.This movie is going to be great and might beat Iron Man in quality.

[luke1234]

Yeah I dont know a whole lot about Thor but this looks like it'll be a form of classic storytelling, perfect for Kenneth's style. Destroyer scene was awesome. Now Im psyched.

[Blackman]

I have never read a thor comic in my life, but that looks awesome

Even if the action is bland it seems like it'll be fun with good dialouge

[samsnee]

I thought Chris looked good, but Hopkins was definitely cheesy sounding. The costumes were also a little hokey but what can you expect from Asgard. It shouldn't look like Lord of the Rings.

[misjuevos]

action may seem bland now but they havent added in the effects yet for everything. dont forget what mjolnir can do and also the magic that you don't see yet due to post production going on right now

[bapi]

Ohh, that CC trailer doesn't look very interesting. I don't know why but it really reminds me the Golden Compass. But I don't see anythings interesting there... Well, in the basic those Marvel movies they all look same. IM 1 & 2, TIH, now Thor... I really do not see any difference between them.

After watching the trailer a number of times late last night there are only two things that bug me in the trailer. I don't like the cliche and cheesy scream he does after he tries to lift the hammer and that line, "Oh no, is this Earth?"

Other than those two things I loved the rest of it.

Is it me or do the colors on the Rainbow Bridge move along it?

Ya that "Oh no this is Earth" line was awful. :hehe:

[Abraham]

I liked that line... then again I also like the "mistletoe can be deadly if you eat it" line from BR, and some guy has that as his sig around here so who knows... that guy doesn't seem to understand what is being said in that scene and based on that sig has the emotional maturity and interpersonal skills of an 11 year old but what yea gonna do. Agree to disagree.

Footage looks godadamn brilliant though.

[ultimatefan]

"oh no this is Earth" is okay, if I were from a world of wonders like Asgard I´d think the same thing.

[Clown-Assasin]

The best thing about the leak is that once is on the net its gone forever, you never get it back. Its like a hydra, cut off one head, two grow in its place. So what Marvel have to do is either release it in glorious quicktime HD sooner than planned or release something that will make the internet forget the trailer until the official one is released.
*bring bring*
Hello internets? This is Marvel, how bout a leak of that costume test footage of Cap? *holds reciever* I know the suit looks different now but they don't know that. Look give em this and we'll blitz em with the trailer and proper images in a month and a half.*lifts hand* I'm sorry Internets I can't understand you over the drooling.

Agreed, the scream was a little silly, especially with the funky voice filter they put on it. Also not a fan of the lion's roar they play while Thor is shoving nurses and doctors away in the hospital.

But I liked the "this is Earth!" line. He's immediately disgusted as soon as he realizes it, which is exactly how a fallen god would regard being stuck on Earth.

The rainbow bridge does look like it's got colors shifting along it all the time. Kind of reminds me of the nulls on ReBoot. :D

I didn´t have a problem with that either. Sure his accent is kinda thick, but if you´re gonna be rigid about it he shouldn´t even be speaking English for starters.

Awesome. Glad to see it they officially put it online! Marvel is doing the right thing and it's a great idea.

check again, the trailer so far is not officially released, that's why I removed all links and pics

[ultimatefan]

After seeing the trailer a few times, my only grip is it feels at times like it´s trying too hard to be "fancy", like, overusing "cool" angles, camera pans and slow-mo, which is not an uncommon aspect of Brnagh´s filmmaking. Of course it could be just the fact that these are intentionally selected crucial moments of the storyline and the overall movie may be not as "in your face".

[Son of Coul]

It's not the comment, it's how it was delivered.
I think it's being played as a quick joke in the scene. For some reason the trailer just deadpanned it though. I chuckled.

[dark_b]

again forcing the Avengers guy from IM2?i mean isnt it enough already?

trailer is decent. of course a lot of effects are still missing that will be finished end of this yer for the official trailer.

about the final fight. i wonde something. will it be inside or outside? because a fight between loki and thor inside could be a problem. i mean not for Marvel. they are cheap. but outside it would be bigger and more epic. if its inside its because marvel doesnt want to spend money.

[ultimatefan]

Marvel really wants to do this set up Avengers kinda thing, so I guess we have to deal with it.

[TheCorpulent1]

The movie has a pretty respectable budget. Iron Man and Iron Man 2 certainly didn't look cheap to me, and they're pushing Thor just as hard as they did those movies, so I'm sure they spent a decent amount. If the final fight is inside, I imagine it'll be in the throne room, which is appropriate.

I also have no problem with Coulson being a part of this movie. Marvel Studios' movies are connected, just like the comics share a universe and characters. Get over it.

[Son of Coul]

Coulson looks like an integral part of the story, hardly shoehorned in.

[The Sage]

again forcing the Avengers guy from IM2?i mean isnt it enough already?



Going by the footage, looks like SHIELD is more naturally integrated as part of the story instead of feeling forced in like IM2.

[TheCorpulent1]

Coulson looks like an integral part of the story, hardly shoehorned in.
Yeah, this looks like the first movie he'll actually play a significant part in, as opposed to his bit parts in the Iron Man films.

[dark_b]

i am also afraid that Hopkins next to Hemsworth could be a problem. in the trailer you can see that Hopkins is one of the best actors on this planet. maybe it will make Hemsworth look bad compared to him?

[Doctor Jones]

I have no problem with Coulson and SHIELD. By circumstances and how Marvel is set up cinematically, it makes sense SHIELD would be on this stuff. Doesn't feel forced at all. They're doing a good job at that. And **** what people say about Fury appearing in IM2. I mean at first people were excited to see him there, now they complain about him being there. He had only three scenes, and they all made sense. Tony was still apart of it.

[Chewy]

Of course it's possible. It's also possible Hemsworth could surprise a lot of people and prove he's an actor worth paying attention to. It's all conjecture at this point

[Doctor Jones]

i am also afraid that Hopkins next to Hemsworth could be a problem. in the trailer you can see that Hopkins is one of the best actors on this planet. maybe it will make Hemsworth look bad compared to him?

Well, he is the king of Asgard and Hemsworth plays his son. I mean a son always looks bad compared to the father right? The father is suppose to talk down a son if trouble happens and such.

[mclay18]

i am also afraid that Hopkins next to Hemsworth could be a problem. in the trailer you can see that Hopkins is one of the best actors on this planet. maybe it will make Hemsworth look bad compared to him?

Well, Hopkins being in The Wolfman didn't exactly raise its profile. It was underwhelming, to say the least.

I'm a bit mixed on this trailer. It looks like it's trying to have its cake and eat it too, and there seems to be a lot of story crammed in. But this CC footage looks far more promising than the one we saw for Iron Man 2.

[Whiskey Tango]

I like Coulson.

[Kevin Roegele]

It would be ridiculous to say at this point it won't be a good film - but it's not a good trailer.

[TheCorpulent1]

I thought it was quite a good trailer. Also, it's technically not a trailer at all, it was a 5-minute sneak peek for Comic-Con attendees. They'll probably cut it up and edit together a few parts plus some new material for the actual trailers going out to the general public.
I have no problem with Coulson and SHIELD. By circumstances and how Marvel is set up cinematically, it makes sense SHIELD would be on this stuff. Doesn't feel forced at all.

People complain about Fury in Iron Man 2? I didn't even know. I was rather satisfied with his inclusion. The first movie had Fury's earliest overtures to Tony, simply asking him to join SHIELD. Tony refuses, so in the second movie he steps up his game and actually helps Tony with a problem he knows he's having, providing the incentive for Tony to join. It made sense to me.

[dark_b]

It would be ridiculous to say at this point it won't be a good film - but it's not a good trailer.you are aware that this is a comic con trailer months after they ended filming and 1 year before the movie comes out?:yay:

[OB12]

Just saw the footage, though I need to see it again on a bigger screen since I watched in on my phone. I really do think this movie is going to be awesome. Hopkins is owning the role of Odin, Hemsworth looks fierce as Thor, and Hiddleston is looking very sneaky and diabolical. The footage looks like the tone is going to fit in very well with the already established IM an TIH movies. The Destroyer looks freakin badass, I just can't wait to see some flight and some lightning strikes.

[breyfogle_rules]

Just saw the trailer. I liked it. The warriors three all walking side by side in slow motion with their cloaks billowing in wind looks incredibly stupid, as do Heimdal's RIDICULOUS cateye contact lenses or whatever. I'm pumped for the movie, don't get me wrong, but Heimdall looks completely queer with those lenses. Maybe it will work on screen. We'll see.

[Son of Coul]

Well, Hopkins being in The Wolfman didn't exactly raise its profile. It was underwhelming, to say the least.
Hopkins could have been in The Love Guru and it wouldn't have hurt his profile, it's not like he's some kind of up-and-comer. He's pretty much done building an image/rep/profile.

Yup, everyone was excited that they were linking up the characters just like in the comics and loved that scene at the end of the first Iron Man then when it came down to it, they started *****ing. As you said, his scenes were minimal and they made sense with the story.

Well, Hopkins being in The Wolfman didn't exactly raise its profile. It was underwhelming, to say the least.

What makes you think that??

Odin banishes Thor to Earth, he tries to redeem himself and get back his power while Loki takes over Asgard. Someone(most likely Loki)sends out the Destroyer armor to cause havok and Thor must stop both the Destroyer and Loki. They have some SHIELD stuff thrown in as well but I don't think it will be too much.

[Son of Coul]

It also seems that the Warriors 3 and Sif somehow end up on Earth in the trailer.

[TheCorpulent1]

Just saw the trailer. I liked it. The warriors three all walking side by side in slow motion with their cloaks billowing in wind looks incredibly stupid, as do Heimdal's RIDICULOUS cateye contact lenses or whatever.

They did look a bit Armageddon-ish. I liked the shot where Sif turns and smiles one of the most mischievous smiles I've ever seen, though. Then again, I could watch Jaimie Alexander do virtually anything and enjoy it. ;)

[jrd550]

I must admit, I am slightly let down by this footage - it just feels like all of the Marvel films look the same - I know these are all building up to the avengers, but do they all have to feel like the same movie?

[Optimus_Prime_]

I'm afraid Thor will spend too much time out of costume. Seriously, I thought a lot of the trailer looked awesome, but I don't want to watch a movie about The Mortal Thor, he should be the Mighty Thor. It seems like their adapting the original Stan Lee story about Thor learning humility, and combining it with the Ultimates 2 arc where he is captured by SHIELD and suspected of treason. While I like both stories, Ultimates managed to use it as a substory within an action packed storyline. I don't want to spend 1 whole hour watching Thor run around like Peter Parker did in SM2.

[TheCorpulent1]

Reminder again to everybody: Screen caps are considered just as bootlegged as the trailer itself. Don't post them here.

[Project862006]

sorry i thought since a big sites like trailer addict/AICN/Slash Film/etc. had it up i thought it was official

[TheCorpulent1]

Nope, Marvel's still asking to take it down.

[Keyser Soze]

I enjoyed the Thor trailer, but I actually think that the trailer for The Walking Dead the day before trumped it and (no pun intended) stole it's thunder a bit, for me at least. But the Thor footage kicked the ass of the Green Lantern footage.

[TheCorpulent1]

I'm appreciating them separately. I agree, The Walking Dead looks better overall than Thor to me, but they're two very different animals and I'm predisposed to liking the character-driven, long-term stuff like TWD more than an action movie in the first place. Still, for what it is, the Thor footage looked fantastic to me. :up:

[Grillz]

Wow, just saw the trailer (nice & clear), and it is much better than I saw from some "other" sources. Looks like it's shaping up to be a nice movie.

[ultimatefan]

It would be ridiculous to say at this point it won't be a good film - but it's not a good trailer.

Except it´s not really a trailer. It´s just footage that was assembled together for the Comic Con. The movie barely finished shooting.

It´s clearly back and forth, but the stuff on Earth is what will make Thor a more relatable character, a powerful being that has to learn about vulnerability and humiility to prove he´s worthy of his power

[S.A.A.D.]

The premise for The Walking Dead sounds straight up generic and the trailer for it is underwhelming,it looks like a straight to dvd release too. Imo,there are better looking zombie movies,way better.

[Optimus_Prime_]

BTW - I can't be the only one who noticed...the SHIELD compound is the shape of the Ultimate Nullifier from Fantastic Four.

Not a movie, a TV series. On AMC. With Frank Darabont heading it up. And the premise is basically "what happens to these people after your typical zombie movie?"

Whoops. I still don't feel the premise,oh well. I'm surprised he worked on A Nightmare On Elm Street 3:The Dream Warriors.

[TheCorpulent1]

To each his own. It looks great to me, but I'm a big fan of the comic series.

[Avengers-Report]

What shape was the Shield Base in?

[Optimus_Prime_]

What shape was the Shield Base in?
The Ultimate Nullifier. A device Uatu gave Reed Richards to call Galactus' bluff. It destroys both the user and the target. I've since taken a screencap of the base, and if it's coincidental it's a pretty spectacular one.

It would be fun to see Uatu in Thor's sequels. Kirby and Lee did a ton of cosmic stuff with Thor.

[TheCorpulent1]

Ha, yeah, I guess it does have a similar shape. I wonder if that was intentional or just a coincidence...

[cryptic name]

The premise for The Walking Dead sounds straight up generic and the trailer for it is underwhelming,it looks like a straight to dvd release too. Imo,there are better looking zombie movies,way better.

it's a tv show. and given both the source material and the fact that it's an amc series, it will be one of the absolute best things on television.

[S.A.A.D.]

Meh,tv is dead to me,very dead. It will only get worse as time flies by.

[TheCorpulent1]

TV's getting a lot better to me, provided you're watching cable. The networks are pretty much dead.

[Optimus_Prime_]

Ha, yeah, I guess it does have a similar shape. I wonder if that was intentional or just a coincidence...
I wanna say intentional...but why would you even bother when you could've just used the actual device as they did with the Infinite Gauntlet

[Rock Sexton]

TV's getting a lot better to me, provided you're watching cable. The networks are pretty much dead.

Only thing I'll watch on network TV is football and The Family Guy. Cable is obviously a notch above, but it is INFESTED with obnoxious reality programming.

[TheCorpulent1]

I still like some of NBC and ABC's sitcoms, and Fox has some decent dramas. That's about all. USA, TNT, and AMC are the big names in TV for me at this point.

[misjuevos]

The faciltiy is also missing a roof. Obviously it's so When Thor picks up mjolnir the lightning will strike down. But if your shield and running test on something why wouldn't it be in a controlled enviroment. They just leave it out in the open. Just something I found funny. Also just wait till they add the effects for mjolnir or Thor flying or you see magic then you will change your mind. Still have a ways to go till a real trailer is cut.

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, I thought that was weird too. I figured maybe they left the roof off for a crane to come down and try to excavate Mjolnir or something.

[Pauluz]

Does anybody know what song it is that starts playing when we see the close-up of Thor in the chair?

[KangConquers]

I still haven't decided on the trailer; I can see both sides of the argument...and I'm not sure either side is right.

It looks entertaining, but parts of it look a little cheap. The Frost Giants (if that's what those are) are an incredible disappointment. Maybe I expected more than I should have.

[misjuevos]

I think they would have tried a crane or a forklift or something before settin up shop. Like in iron man 2 they found it and probably tried everthing to get it back to shield but couldn't lift it. So then they set up shop to run test. they put a couple levels but no roof,lol

Just wait till they add the effect for mjolnir or there is magic or Thor flying. The movie comes out next year. Trailer was just comic con footage to show the characters and locations. Also to give an idea of what they are doing with Thor.

[Carmine Falcone]

I'm a complete and utter Thor layman, but the trailer made the movie look rather entertaining. Okay, it wasn't very well put together, but regardless of that I find the whole mystical thing about it very appealing. I hope it'll be good.

[Keyser Soze]

The premise for The Walking Dead sounds straight up generic and the trailer for it is underwhelming,it looks like a straight to dvd release too. Imo,there are better looking zombie movies,way better.

Eh, that's okay, as I don't think I've ever agreed with a single opinion you've expressed on the boards. It's got to the point where you hating the look of something is almost the final seal of approval that confirms it'll be worth watching. :oldrazz:

But yeah, as Corp says, it might seem like a generic zombie tale at first, but it really becomes very much it's own beast as it progresses, and the TV medium is the perfect format to adapt that kind of story. And AMC is where it's at in TV Land these days.

I still haven't decided on the trailer; I can see both sides of the argument...and I'm not sure either side is right.

It looks entertaining, but parts of it look a little cheap. The Frost Giants (if that's what those are) are an incredible disappointment. Maybe I expected more than I should have.

I've watched it probably 15 times since last night. I'm still excited for it, but my criticisms/concerns for some areas have grown a little bit.

Here's what I really liked:

1. Thors physique
2. The Warriors Three
3. Odin and his speech
4. Coulson's quip about Stark
5. Loki (still think he's going to steal the show)
6. The Destroyer
7. Heimdall

Here's what I'm not liking at the moment:

1. Natalie Portman .... she's extremely one note
2. Asgard .... too much reliance on sets, some looked like a P-Diddy video
3. Scene with Thor, Loki, Sif, Warriors Three all walking .... cheesy Reservoir Dogs knock off
4. Frost Giants .... not what I expected at all, come off looking a little cheap too
5. New Mexico location for the Earth portion of the film
6. Kat Dennings ..... playing her typical quipping self and it's annoying

Again it's early ..... we're still about 10 months away from the film's release with a lot of post-production work to be done. I am very interested to see how the fight/action scenes turn out as that is not exactly Branaugh's specialty. We're also going to need to see far more lightening and magic effects.

Wow, some of your complaints are a little odd. I mean, you just hate all of New Mexico? :huh:

Kirkman himself was like, "Since it's a zombie movie that never ends, adapting it into a movie would kind of make no sense..."

how else woudl you do asgard if not for sets unless you wanted it half CGI/half set which i think they did

Excellent trailer. I especially liked the robot at the end. My confidence in this movie is much higher now.

I thought Asgard looked phenomenal. Those shots with the camera panning around, showing us Asgard in all its splendor, were really well done. I liked little touches like the two moons in one scene. Definitely tells us that this is an otherworldly place.
