Thor News and Pics Thread: Impending Super Bowl Spot Edition

Old thread here

[Rock Sexton]

Oh totally. They even mention the Tesseract in it. I think Averngers is Loki + Red Skull and Hydra. Maybe even Justin Hammer?

God, could you imagine Loki strikes a deal with Hyrda. Hydra seeks the aid of Hammer to help put together an army and frees Abomination. Hydra also sets out to find the infinity gems (or maybe just one depending on if Loki already has most of them). Loki uses Hulk to distract the Avengers. In the credits, Thanos somehow gets wind that the gems are all found.

Would make my day.

Kooky stuff, avoiding most spoilers. And subscribing.

[Crimson King]

Man...I dislike this new post-closing system.

Anyway, the new batch of spoilers has me totally geeked, especially to see these superhuman feats I've been wishing for with Thor.

Volstagg picks up a car with one hand

[afan]

Volstagg picks up a car with one hand


Oooooo..that bit of info puts a scale to Thor's power level...Volstagg one hands a car, and yet the Warriors Three and Sif are beaten by Destroyer, but Thor once he regains his power defeats Destroyer!

Was there any mention if the Frost Giants do grow in size?

[Chewy]

They do not grow in size.

[Figs]

They do not grow in size.

Thanks for the response!

My favorite part with Volstagg:



VOLSTAGG
Lady Sif and the Warriors Three. Surely you’ve heard tales of Hogun
the Grim, Fandral the Dashing, and I, Volstagg the Svelte?

Selvig looks pointedly at Volstagg’s massive gut.

VOLSTAGG (CONT’D)
Well, perhaps I’ve put on a little more muscle since I was here last.

JANE
That would have been a thousand years ago? Northern Europe?

VOLSTAGG
Exactly! Those lovely herring people. They worshipped us!

heh We'll be going through alot of threads then. lol

[herolee10]

I'm still wondering though; assuming the spoilers are accurate; then

how does Thor get back to earth for the Avengers if he's stuck in Asgard by the end of his own film? They already have enough to deal with regarding reviving Capt, introducing the main villains, and getting them all together.

[Vartha]

Good question Hero.

[marvel_freshman]

how does Thor get back to earth for the Avengers if he's stuck in Asgard by the end of his own film? They already have enough to deal with regarding reviving Capt, introducing the main villains, and getting them all together.

To my understanding, this was an early draft. Because...The outline that I've yet to show anyone was said to be from the final script. And in it, Thor says he wants to come back to earth because we humans are brittle and need to here more from him.

But you never know where The Avengers will pick up from, whether it's on Asgard or earth.

[Chewy]

It's not an early draft. It may not be the *final* draft, but these revisions are dated in March and they started shooting in January. This is a mid-production version of the script.

[marvel_freshman]

Well, yeah just not final. It doesn't even have the writers' (who I've spoken with) credits on the first page like all script should have.

[Vartha]

Still even with the minor changes, I have no doubt we fans will be happy with the film.
I mean look at LotR, they had changes and adds up to the Delivery week!

[Chewy]

Well, yeah just not final. It doesn't even have the writers' (who I've spoken with) credits on the first page like all script should have.

Whoever leaked it probably didn't include the first page as it would have had their name printed on it

[marvel_freshman]

If that's the case, then the leaker would have to be Marvel's own. But you never know. I just like to point something interesting from the script, that's pointed out in the trailer.

When we see Thor fall to earth, in the trailer, Thor says Oh no, this is earth isn't it?. Making it seems like that is the first thing Thor says after landing on earth. But from reading that script, that cut scene actually takes place after Thor escapes the hospital, after getting hit again by Jane. You can see hes wearing hospital threads when he says it in the trailer.

Just thought I'd throw that out there.

[BigThor]

I was hoping Thor's second trailer was gonna be released today, they said the end of the month and it's Jan 28.

I guess it's going to premiere sometime next week, I really want to see what strength level Thor will have in the movie.

[Vartha]

Maybe Monday BT. That is the last day AND it's that much closer to the bowl.

[BigThor]

Maybe Monday BT. That is the last day AND it's that much closer to the bowl.

Yeah hopefully Monday, I don't want to wait all they way until the Superbowl T.V. spot.

[Gamma Burst]

Hopefully it will be released on monday!

[BigThor]

I'm trying hard to convince this guy in "The Avengers News and Speculation" thread that Thor is creating strong winds in the trailer's scene when that car hits the Destroyer.

[Rock Sexton]

I'm trying hard to convince this guy in "The Avengers News and Speculation" thread that Thor is creating strong winds in the trailer's scene when that car hits the Destroyer.

Sorry dude. I doubt Thor summons a tornado to attack the Destroyer right in the middle of the town. It would destroy it. Possibility of him creating wind? Sure. Yet when I heard about Volstag's feat of strength, that scene with the car immediately came to mind.

[steintym]

Back to 1K limit??? ... ugh

Can't wait to see some of these spoilers in action. Some of the action scenes are going to be unbelievable.

[MikeFrost]

I read it. Awesome script.

Also, Vartha, seems I was right. It's "These are not mere virtues to which we must aspire."

[Vartha]

Actually it was wrong I HAD, "Is not mere virtues" I just don't HEAR both "these are" in the SDCC footage. It's probably due to the laptop speakers that I don't hear it right.

[Vartha]

Back to 1K limit??? ... ugh

MAN I cannot WAIT to see the up coming trailers even MORE now. lol
What's in the script just makes me that much more excited for the movie and not just the action scenes. lol
Thor Fans will NOT be disappointed, everything seems to be spot on. :thor:

[MikeFrost]

Actually it was wrong I HAD, "Is not mere virtues" I just don't HEAR both "these are" in the SDCC footage. It's probably due to the laptop speakers that I don't hear it right.

Probably because Hopkins ad libbed there and actually said "These not mere virtues". It's an Old English way of speaking.

[Vartha]

I wouldn't doubt it Mike. There's a few spots I noticed some slight ad lib's or changes.

[MikeFrost]

Aye, it's for the better anyway. Really stoked for this movie, I liked the way they handled everything in the script.

One thing tho: I find the humour in some scenes a bit excessive, specially the action ones. In the end it all matters on the way they are delivered so I'm not one to judge yet.

[TheCorpulent1]

Probably because Hopkins ad libbed there and actually said "These not mere virtues". It's an Old English way of speaking.
I thought he said "these are not mere virtues" but his accent kind of swallowed the "are" into little more than a tiny pause between "these" and "not."

Now that I think about it, I kind of don't want to see any new ones. Mainly because you know they're going to show even more action, and I'm tried of seeing most of the action scenes in the trailers.


For those who have read the script(not sure if you have Vartha)about how many action scenes are there throughout the film?

[Chewy]

4 big scenes. There's other little bursts of action scattered throughout, too.

[Figs]

Nice! Sounds like a good amount.

[TheCorpulent1]

Pretty standard for big action movies. I'm sure we'll see a lot of other cool bits and pieces throughout the movie, too.

[thjan]

I thought he said "these are not mere virtues"

Yep, that is what I hear too.

[lixdexia]

just noticed another cameo in the script i don't think anyone has mentioned jasper sitwell gets a mention, hopefully someone calls him by name and it won't just be on his badge or something

[Chewy]

Yeah, he doesn't just get a mention though, he's pretty important in the scene he appears in.

Adriana Baraza talks Thor: (run through Google translate)
The artist will next appear in "The toadies", inspired by a popular television series in Colombia, and the movie "Thor, "directed by Kenneth Branagh and starring Anthony Hopkins and Natalie Portman.

(In "Thor") I have a small role, which has only two scenes," she said modestly. "But I was very happy to be part of this movie. It gave me the opportunity to see what you do, no matter how small it is, try to do what it is, something very important, great. "

I'd be shocked if she wasn't playing the part of Isabela the diner owner, a character who we saw a casting call for way back, appears in only two scenes, and speaks Spanish.

[MikeFrost]

It's probably that role, yea.

[Vartha]

Now that I think about it, I kind of don't want to see any new ones. Mainly because you know they're going to show even more action, and I'm tried of seeing most of the action scenes in the trailers.


For those who have read the script(not sure if you have Vartha)about how many action scenes are there throughout the film?
Yes I did last night, like Chewy says there's four big scenes and a few little ones that can EASILY be used without spoiling or even using up the entire movie.

[Chewy]

Yeah, unless they show Loki doing some crazy ****, they're definitely saving the best for the movie itself

[Vartha]

INDEED Chewy.

[BigThor]

I sure hope Heimdall get's a fight scene

[lixdexia]

he kinda does

[Gamma Burst]

he kinda does

Nice to know!

[Vartha]

heh a couple funny parts too. :D

[Gamma Burst]

So, about the 2nd trailer, everyone's bet is on monday? :)

[Figs]

Damn it! Now you got me curious as to what kind of crazy **** Loki pulls off. Don't tell me though. :woot:

[darkslayer101]

maybe the superbowl showcases the second trailer and it official releases some day after superbowl....

[flickchick85]

I wouldn't call what Heimdall gets a "fight scene" but it's a pretty cool scene for him regardless.

I really liked the script. There were a few aspects I didn't care for (as someone else mentioned, the humor seems a bit forced/excessive at points), but overall, it definitely exceeded my expectations. It did leave me wondering how the hell they're gonna pull off a few of these scenes with their budget, but hey, that just gives me something to look forward to in May. :up:

[Chewy]

Comedy is one of the things most often ad-libbed on set as actors work together with the crew to see what works and what doesn't

[flickchick85]

I agree, which is why I'm not too worried about them making it work (especially in Kat Dennings' case with Darcy's stuff, since she has a history in comedy).

[WildcatNC]

I know you can only tell so much from what's written on the page, but how do the fights in this compare to those in Iron Man 1/2 and TIH?

[flickchick85]

Hmmm...I think it's a little early to say since some of the fights are less "grounded in reality" than IM and TIH and use magic/magical weapons, so they'll be relying on a lot more CGI and imagination. But I will say there are two major ones that contain a great deal of straight-forward combat which could be potentially great.

I'd have to agree with this Flickchick as well. The Script doesn't go into GREAT detail from what we've heard from the rumors of those who've had a sneak peek of the film, the Script is not as detailed as some of those rumors.
Even still, with what IS in the script you can tell the fight scenes will be alittle better....there are more people INVOLVED in them. :D

[BigThor]

Wow, they're better on paper than even TIH's fight scenes? Niceeee

Cool, super powers & magic plus fluid and well excecuted straight forward combat = EPIC :up:

[Vartha]

Like I said BT without reading the script and spoiling things for you there isn't another way to explain the fights other than that.
TIH had it's moments but the "abundance" of Characters fighting and doing their "thing" during them in Thor to ME tops TIH.

[BigThor]

Great, I can't wait to see those scenes unfold on the big screen.

I really really hope the 2nd trailer comes out tomorrow.

[Vartha]

cross your fingers it's either tomorrow or this week. We might not see it til midnight friday/saturday.

[Kirmit]

Wow, they're better on paper than even TIH's fight scenes? Niceeee

Keep it mind though on paper TIH's fights were alot bigger with more action than what we got in the end.

[Vartha]

Well Kirmit from spoilers from those who've seen a screening of the rough cut, there are things not IN the script that ARE on the film.

To me between the two I'm a very happy man. lol

[bossman550]

how is hawkeyes cameo

[bossman550]

Are we allowed to ask 4 someone to email us the scripts?????????????????? if so..........

Really, I didn't know that :(

I hope that means that their are things IN the film regarding action sequences that are NOT in the script :word:.

If Vartha's happy then that is a very good sign for the rest of us Thor fans.

[R_Hythlodeus]

Are we allowed to ask 4 someone to email us the scripts?????????????????? if so..........
a very good question that I too ask.

[Excelsior.]

I wouldn't trust the screenplays words as the ultimate dictator on how it will end up on screen. Ken is the dictator. Does he have the ability to bring to life the scenes described? Will he transcend the words? Will he underwhelm for various reasons?

[Vartha]

Really, I didn't know that :(

If Vartha's happythen that is a very good sign for the rest of us Thor fans.
In a way what Nuffsaid just related, you can't go COMPLETELY by what in the script. It works both ways, there can be things IN the script that don't show up in the film, and there can be action scenes that might not have been added at the time this script was written.

I've seen it spelled Odinn too, It'd be interesting to see why they've had to add "Marvel's" to it.

I believe Real said something about sizes, but, I'm wanting to see the warriors Three, Sif and Jane made too.

Does anyone have an idea what "device" it is next to Thors left arm?

[eeffos]

This question goes out to Vartha or to any of the other lucky script reviewers. Were their any examples of Thor using superhuman strength other than when he had his hammer. My fear is they are going to give the impression that the hammer is all that Thor has going for him.
I've waited so long for this movie, I'm just praying that they get Thor right (he's pretty awesome without the hammer too).
A simple yes or no will do....you don't need to reveal any spoilers.
Many thanks for already sharing what you already have!

Yeah, that's something I also don't understand. :yay:
Nevertheless, the Hasbro figure looks good.
Especially because of the price that is a lot more affordable than the Hot Toys figure.
Unfortunately, I can probably not resist and have to buy them both. :woot:

I want the Hot Toys soooo badly. It's a beautiful piece! Like you said tho the price is outrageous lol and with that kind of thing I hope YOU can get one over there. My Cousin is there, he retired from the Army and stayed there close to the base.

[Vartha]

Looking more closely at the pic, it looks like you put that lightning piece into that part by his left Arm.

[JDym]

Why would anyone be bothered about it?

It's an action/story device that's been done over and over again. Just a little cheesy. i don't think odin had to be three or four words away from making Thor king in order to push the drama of the Frost Giant invasion

[MikeFrost]

Well, he didn't had to but it's a way to get that exposition done quickly. I agree that it's been done tons of times but it's one trophe that actually works and doesn't seem retarded.

I mean, it's not a deus ex machina or a plothole...

[Vartha]

Yeah it just doesn't bother me. To ME it's just a quick simple way to introduce everyone involved in the movie and show those movie goers not familiar with Thor and the rest of the Asgardians.

[Gamma Burst]

Well, he didn't had to but it's a way to get that exposition done quickly. I agree that it's been done tons of times but it's one trophe that actually works and doesn't seem retarded.

I mean, it's not a deus ex machina or a plothole...

Agreed.

[TheCorpulent1]

It's an action/story device that's been done over and over again. Just a little cheesy. i don't think odin had to be three or four words away from making Thor king in order to push the drama of the Frost Giant invasion
Kind of makes Odin come off like a really bad judge of character, but I don't mind it.

[Chewy]

No, Frost Giants show up to steal the casket of Ancient Winters when Odin is a few words from naming Thor king. Doesn't really have anything to do with Odin's judgement of character.

[TheCorpulent1]

And Thor dispatches them with his "nuclear" lightning blast, indicating that he lacks the humility and self-control to be a just ruler and leading to his banishment. So Odin was going to name him king without noticing this ever-so-slightly monumental character flaw.

I agree, tho Corpy doesn't want to be spoiled lol it's rough telling him about it without giving away to much. lol

[Mexxecutioner]

Looking more closely at the pic, it looks like you put that lightning piece into that part by his left Arm.

Yeah I think you are right. Some kind of crazy "lightning weapon" :woot:.
I hope pictures of the other 10" figures come up as soon as possible.

[Gunga Diner]

No, Frost Giants show up to steal the casket of Ancient Winters when Odin is a few words from naming Thor king. Doesn't really have anything to do with Odin's judgement of character.
More importantly, when Thor's position as King is stolen from him just as he's about to get it, that adds a lot of drama and makes his story a little more interesting.

[Chewy]

True, true. But it's not like his other son doesn't have his own massive character issues to deal with. Odin doesn't exactly have much to work with.

[Vartha]

Fair enough. I thought Loki was supposed to be a model child in the movie up until he learns that he's actually a runt giant, though.

[JDym]

was i intending to stir up the pot just a weeee bit for the spoilerific crowd in light of the lack of new images/trailers? maybe :yay:

even still, i'm by no means a great writer or anything, but i'm annoyed at the trope

[Vartha]

True, true. But it's not like his other son doesn't have his own massive character issues to deal with. Odin doesn't exactly have much to work with.
hahaha Right?

Tho Loki didn't even KNOW what he was until the Jotunheim "visit" and he still had that jealous streak. Makes me wonder why Odin never told him in the first place. I like the way the way they did that part of "adopting" Loki over the comic version.

It may have been intentional by Loki. Not that it happened mid-sentence, but that it happened mid-ceremony. He knew that it would enrage Thor and he could convince him to go to Jotunheim.

[Vartha]

He was to a point but like Kenneth said there's still that sibling rivalry

well Thor is the older brother, so the throne would go to him first anyway, correct?

Also, it may be a good idea to make a script discussion/super-spoiler thread so that those who don't want the spoilers don't have to stumble upon them in this thread.

that is a very good point.

and i agree about the separate thread, though can we face any trouble discussing this stuff openly?

saying this reminds me strangely of a funny bit from Arrested Development:

Lucille 2: Buster, do you remember when we were kissing last night?
Buster: It was a wild, wild ride. But is this something we can do? Is this something society will allow?

[TheCorpulent1]

No trouble, but there is a divide between those who wish to be completely spoiled by the script leak and those who don't mind a few spoilers in the course of normal discussion. A separate thread specifically to discuss the script would probably be the most considerate option for your fellow posters.

[Vartha]

heh not if there's more changes to the script not to mention not EVERYTHING is Spoiled in the scripts.

[Vartha]

ok Script thread's up!

Well, actually we start the movie with Odin being doubtful of Thor's capability of making a good king. It's because he's near Odin Sleep that he is rushed into making him king - he needs someone to take over for when he's sleeping.

So actually, what really starts all this plot forward is Odin's impending sleepy fate :cwink:

[BigThor]

^^^ True

[WildcatNC]

Kind of makes Odin come off like a really bad judge of character, but I don't mind it.

MOST parents are poor judges of their children's character. Always erring on the optimistic side.

[Chewy]

Between sneaking off to get his beach time in and making guest appearances on other television series -- he can be seen next on the February 17th episode of CSI titled "Targets of Obsession" -- Dallas is carefully wading through feature film offers. This summer, movie goers around the world will see him bring to life the popular comic book character Fandral of The Warriors Three in Marvel Studios' cinematic adaptation Thor. The role of Fandral wasn't always his, though; it was originally awarded to Stuart Townsend who parted with the production for unknown reasons days before the camera were set to role. Dallas wasn't just at the right place at the right time to step into the character's boots; he impressed the filmmakers so much during his audition the role was offered to him almost immediately.

"I came on to the project quite late in the game, 4 days to be exact. I had just arrived into LA from London were I was shooting a drama with Nick Frost. I got a call from the casting directors on THOR [Tamara Notcutt and Randi Hiller] asking if I would come and meet with heads of Marvel Studios Kevin Feige and Louis D'Esposito and Director Ken Branagh. Thirty minutes after the meeting, I was offered the role and they told me to get back down to the studio as soon as possible. This was a Thursday evening and I started shooting Monday morning!

"So that whole weekend was about costume fittings, meeting the other actors, discussions with Ken and stunt calls to learn one of the biggest fight sequences in the movie. It was certainly a baptism by fire!" With hardly any time to prep for part before the cameras began to role, Joshua was facing another slight problem: getting to known the other two members of the inseparable Warriors Three, Ray Stevenson (Volstagg) and Tadanobu Asano (Hogun). "Because I came on to the picture late we had no time to bond before starting to shoot, so we had to create that chemistry instantly. It wasn't hard. Both Ray and Tad are such great guys and actors. There might have been a few... late night parties after that first week... just to deepen the bond. But I'm not saying anything."

On a production this large, literally hundreds of key players are swarming the sets throughout the day performing every task from lighting changes to catering to fixing last minute wardrobe malfunctions. But even through all the commotion, Marvel staffers kept their presence known and lent a hand to the actors bring the beloved comic characters to life. "Co-Producer Craig Kyle was on set with us everyday, these stories and characters are so close to him. He was totally invaluable to us on set. He knows the comics -- and not just THOR but all Marvel comics backwards and forwards. [He's] a connoisseur. We could go to him if we wanted to know more history of the characters or maybe how they would respond in a certain situation.

"We also had a couple of days when Walt Simonson was with us on set. He said to me "You look perfect and you sound perfect...You're Fandral!" That's all I needed! He drew me an amazing picture of Fandral that's framed in my office along with the kick ass poster of THOR Olly Moss designed."

Dallas didn't just rely on the guidance of others to help him embody the dashing warrior; he took it upon himself to create a live-action interpretation of the character that was largely inspired by the great Errol Flynn. "I certainly used Errol flynn and the comics. The whole character of Fandral in the comics was inspired around Errol Flynn. I think I watched all his movies, "Captain Blood and The Sea Hawk," "The Adventures of Robin Hood" and "The Charge of the Light Brigade" in particular. Flynn had this reputation as a dashing Lothario and party animal -- much like Fandral -- and Flynn was a master at sword fights so I wanted to capture a bit of [his] finesse and pace, not only in Fandrals character but also in his fighting style. And with all that finesse in his sword play, I also wanted Fandral to be more brutal and ferocious. He is a warrior after all."

The Warriors Three -- Fandral, Volstagg and Hogun -- are known for offering a relaxed and many times humorous presence in the comics as well as being the fiercest fighters in Asgard. This tone definitely translates to the film, but Joshua wants to remind fans that "comedic relief" isn't their primary purpose. "They are warriors first and foremost. I think that's where we all started and then let the characters individual personalities mix together. I still haven't seen a final cut so anything can happen, but there was definitely a lot of charm with the Warriors Three in the script and I think they have a lot charisma as characters. Especially once the story brings us to Earth.

"Then it becomes about these Asgardian Gods coming to contemporary Earth and looking completely out of context. It's great! This is an epic story. So there is a lot to get into and many characters to meet along the way. We're starting at the very origins of Thor and his family and The Warriors Three are right by his side, forever loyal. What drew me in is that [this is] a movie that already has a huge fan base. To be part of a project that already has an audience that is so excited about the material before it even comes out, is a very intoxicating thing. Also, Fandral's not a bad guy to live with for 5 1/2 months." When asked to pick only three words to describe his portrayal of Fandral, Joshua keep it clear and concise: "Philandering, devoted, warrior."

...

Though Thor fans didn't get to see much of Dallas' Fandral in the first trailer which was released last year, pretty soon there will be plenty of promotional material and new footage showcasing his mustached visage. Not only that, but a few lucky fans may even get to take special Thor keepsake home. "Check this out: I was just sent a hundred trading cards of Fandral to sign that will be placed randomly in packs of THOR trading cards from UPPER DECK. How cool is THAT! I get to play a superhero, get an action figure and have trading cards. My boyhood dreams are coming true!"

[BigThor]

That's a great interview by Josh Dallas, I was blown away by the few times I've seen him in the Thor trailer and movie stills.

It sounds like he perfected the character of Fandral and I hope they show his superhuman quickness & agility during his fight scenes.

[BigThor]

Oh it's a BIG yes eeffos, tho not while he's mortal. He does keep his fighting skills as you've seen in the Trailer.

GREAT NEWS, Idk how I managed to not see this earlier:thor:.

Here are some points from the article you guys who collect Hot Toys might be interested in -

Unlike most previous Hot Toys releases, they are trying to release the Thor figure around the same time when the movie launches.
Odin (Anthony Hopkins) is planned to be the next figure in line
.They may consider doing different versions of Thor, but will wait to see how well this first one sells.
They say It's very unlikely that they will do a civilian version of Thor.

Great! Thank you very much!
I would love to have different versions of Thor.
But I really think they should have included an alternative head on this figure.
Some angry "fighting" face.
Looking forward to how Odin will look like.

Concerning the interview with the Fandral actor I especially like the part where he talks about being a warrior first in the movie. I care more about fighting scenes than jokes. :woot:

I hope the teaser trailer from Superbowl will come up the next days. I am really excited!

Think he might have let the cat out of the bag. He has said several times that he's NOT in Thor.

Side kick? Its NOT Black Widow huh? Looks like she might be a full fledged Avenger so Fury needs another one.

Thats kind of what its looking like. Widow and Hawkeye both will probably be Avengers.

Why else would Fury need another hot right hand woman? We also know they wanted a female Avengers member or two. Since Pym's not in it i'm not sure we'll see Wasp either. Who else would it be?

BW was wearing a Shield uniform? That has nothing to do with whether she might be an Avenger when it comes out though.

I'm speculating based off of SLJ saying he was testing with some new possible female sidekicks (for Avengers).

It COULD just be another female right hand agent. Just sounds funny to me. Who else is going to be the female Avenger if not BW? She makes the most sense the way they are setting things up.

I could totally see Fury wanting her and Clint in the Avengers to help "manage" them and report back to him. Not to mention help train then to work as a team.

I'm just speculating regardless.

Yeah I'm not totall disagreeing with you, I'd just prefer Black Widow as a shield agent than an Avengers member.

I also noticed that Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man are the only Avengers being promoted as such (not even Hulk).

I have noticed the Thor/Cap/Iron Man promotion as well. Its looking more and more like Hulk might be an adversary. Why not promote him with the team if not right? They have said there would be more Avenger members but maybe they wont join till later on in the movie, even the end.

[TheCorpulent1]

Maria Hill?
That was my first thought. A bit ironic, since the comics' version of Hill was appointed Fury's successor specifically because she wasn't part of his inner circle, but that's not really a big deal for the movies.

Could also be Sharon Carter or the Contessa, I guess. They used the Contessa for that Hasselhoff movie, right?

[lixdexia]

i'm hoping it's carol danvers, especially if they're going to use aliens as the baddies

[steintym]

I also thought Maria Hill when I heard the news about a new sidekick.

[TheCorpulent1]

Ugh, f*** Ms. Marvel. Can't stand her.

[Chewy]

Since they're talking to only dark haired actresses and the role is a member of SHIELD, it's pretty likely to be Hill

Well the International Thor poster was better than the U.S. Thor poster. I'm hoping we get one just a bit better.

[TheCorpulent1]

I liked the US poster much more than the international one. Thor looked enigmatic and bold on the US poster. On the international one he looks a bit awkward, like the camera caught him at a funny angle.

I absolutely agree with you. The US poster is much better. I think the combination between the grey colour and the red cape is amazing.

I`m a big fan of simple and plain posters. I don`t like the ones were every actor is on and it looks like a coloring book for kids with all the different colours and stuff.

I want to see the FRONT of his costume tho. Our poster's from the side barely showing his costume. Almost like showing off Thor's cape. lol

[steintym]

The Cap poster definitely caught my attention more than the Thor poster originally did. Hopefully, we get a more impressvie Thor poster. Maybe this weekend too?

So...Will the SB spot be online somewhere?

[Sebastos]

Most likely youtube if anything.

I hope so, because I work from 7pm-midnight sunday.:(

www.hulu.com/adzone is supposed to have all of the ads from the Superbowl. Says it's supposed to be in real-time, too.

[Vartha]

I'll have to wait then because of work. :(

I'm totally gonna be checking that all day at work, myself. :)

heh this reminds me of the live feed of the Thor footage and you missed it. lol

[TheCorpulent1]

Yes, sometimes I am actually required to work at work. It's terribly unfair. :argh:

[steintym]

I've already got the DVR set to record. We're having a Super Bowl party so there's a good chance I'll miss at least some of the TV spots. Plus, it will be nice to rewatch without a full house.

[TheCorpulent1]

I just hope Hulu keeps the ads up for a long time once they're posted. I know I'm gonna want to watch the Thor and Captain America ads quite a few times.

I haven't gotten one of those HD boxes for my VCR/DVD player. The DVD is player only and the VHS part doesn't see the HD signal. :(

True, but Thor's trailer sure caught my attention:thor:

So do we expect Smulders to show up too when SLJ films his scene in a few weeks?

[Superhero 101]

I think the reason the Cap poster is better is because it doesn't have that typical blue background which every superhero poster seems to have
