I had a similar thread awhile back but the pole is closed, so I decided to make a new one since the film is released.
What's your favorite fight scene in the film?
Definitely the FG battle for spectacle. The Thor-Loki battle was also good...

The Frost Giant battle was very good. I also like the destoryer battle though it was quite short.

The Frost Giant battle was great. Especially the way Thor ends it.
The Thor vs Loki battle was decent too. Very emotionally charged.
The Destroyer battle disappointed me though.

Frost Giant fight scene on Jontunhiem was definitely the best fight scene, with the Destroyer coming in a close 2nd.

So The Destroyer battle wasn't as "underwhelming" as most people are making it out to be?
Vartha

Well from a Fan stand point it IS underwhelming since Destroyer isn't as powerful as it is in the Comics. I thought it was pretty cool. The Frost Giants were alot better.
BigThor

Yeah, i was expecting The Destroyer to sling Thor all around that town.

i'd go with the thor/loki fight, it was a nice change to see two brothers fighting rather than the usual new hero vs new villian fights we've seen in recent superhero films :)

So, what makes the Thor and Loki fight come off as being weak? That is the impression that I am getting.

^ Alot of people like the Thor vs Loki fight, just not as much as the Frost Giant battle.
It's a bit of a toss up for me between Thor vs. The Frost Giants and Thor vs. Loki, but maybe that's just because I was rooting more for Thor at the end of the movie than I was at the beginning.
Also, I actually think I like Thor terrorizing the SHIELD Agents more than I do the Destroyer battle. The Destroyer battle had some cool effects, but it was very, very brief.
BigThor

All this talk about how brief the Destroyer fight was kinda makes me wanna see a rematch in Thor or 3, but I don't see how they could pull it off without it having a "been there done that" vibe.

I liked the Frost Giants fight. I loved how it started. "Run home little princess". Then Thor just smiles, takes that one out and says Next!

I don't think anyone is saying it's weak. It wasn't amazing, in terms of the actual fighting itself. But it was so emotionally charged and the fact it's two brothers who both love and hate each other going at it made it quite a powerful scene.
With lesser actors it wouldn't have been as good though. Hemsworth and Hiddleston really sold the brothers relationship.

I'd say the battle with the Frost Giants and with Loki.

Probably the Frost Giant battle. Thor absolutely kicks the **** out of them.

I finally saw Thor a few hours ago and I would have to say that the Frost Giant battle was my favorite fight scene.
I also liked the Destroyer fight a heck of alot more than most people did, because even though it was brief I still think it was pretty spectacular.
Vartha

Don't get me Wrong BT, I loved the Look of Destroyer, the Fight scene, the unique way he changed direction without moving were all GREAT I just think Destroyer should have been made a tad more indestructible.

I agree, although he was pretty unstoppable before Thor came and even after Sif stabbed it with the spear it managed to recover shrug it off pretty easily.
I would've loved to see it go toe to toe with Thor for awhile but I was pretty satisfied with what we got.

destroyer's fight with thor was underwhelming and dissaopinting mainly because the character had so much potential.
the part where the frost giants get owned when trying to steal the casket made me think like wow dstyr is scary...and of course dstryr owning warrior three further build the potential of the upcoming fight...but then again thor is too powerful and he is supposed to finish it quickly but thor could have toyed around with dstyr

Anything but the fight with the SHIELD agents.
Didn't those guys have any guns or Tasers?

The Frost Giant battle was easily the best action scene in the movie. All of the other fight scenes felt weak compared to it.

IMO every fight sequence was very well displayed and I enjoyed every one of them but by far The battle with the frost giants was the quintessential fight sequence .

05-07-2011, 09:36 PM
if thor could have just spinned the mjolnir and fought off the duplicates of loki just the way he did it with the frost giants, instead of just one push, that fight could have bin way better.
There should be a poll for the best scenes in general...

Showing what Thor can do against the FG's and their version of the Kracken, there is no reason why Thor shouldn't beat the ***** out of the Hulk in the Avengers.
I can't believe that word was truly censored. A word that the very moderator himself says, as does everyone else who is on these boards. Ah censorship.

Yeah that make sense, but we all know Thor isn't going to beat up Hulk in Avengers.
Marvel seems to enjoy having the Hulk as the guy who can kick everyone's asses.

I having a hard time deciding on which fight I like the best , because I liked the frost battle and loki vs thor fight for different reasons.
Frost Giant Battle was off the wall , it was nice seeing Thor Loki and the others fight along side each other was great . Not to mention the frost giants themselves were sick !!!! Laufey especially , he was unreal .
Loki vs Thor was a great emotional ending and its the turning point for them , loki isnt comming back from this . The phyiscal fight was good and the rage loki had was great , wish there was more of it .
So its a toss up between them , maybe when I see it the second time I will make a decision lol . maybe !! :yay:

1. frost giant was the best scene in the movie period,
2. then the thor loki battlewhich was short as well i was expecting more epicness because of the art they released for it
3. the Destroyer scene
4. the Shield scene
The action overall in the movie was a bit underwhelming but i can understand why it was like that since Brannagh isn't used to the action genre but he did what he could and he did a good job.
BigThor

Thor & Loki's fight might have seem short in length, but when they started fighting they actually FOUGHT.
There was no downtime unlike TIH and IM which spent time "hanging from a helicopter" & "flying into the atmosphere".

I agree ... when they started to fight they traded some serious blows , I loved it when loki split himself and was laughing .. I was like is this the same guy from the beginning of the movie ... man he went ape **** . loved it !!!

My favorite was the destroyer battle. Not because it was particulary long or visually exciting, but when thor got his hammer back i was SO freakin giddy. I wanted to stand and cheer. I really loved seeing him kick that things but after it so easily swatted him. Also, the 3d made the frost giant battle kinda hard to watch, but im seein it tomorrow in 2d so it should be better

i do agree with 3d being a hassle to watch fight scenes...it was kinda dark but the hammer spinning was priceless
the first thing i do when i buy this in blu-ray is watch the frost giant battle in high brightness

This is how I would rank the battles.
1. Thor vs Loki
2. Thor, Loki, Sif, and the Warriors Three vs The Frost Giants/the giant creature
3. Thor vs Shield agents
4. Thor, Sif, and the Warriors Three vs The Destroyer
5. Odin and his men vs The Frost Giants

It was also pretty awesome when Thor knocked Loki through the wall of the Observatory onto the Bifrost bridge.

All of the fights outside of the SHIELD agents fight were amazing. I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite. One thing about the Frost Giants fight though is it clearly shows he's a planet buster. The Destroyer fight has my favorite scene in the whole movie, him getting the hammer back, and then the Loki fight has a lot of emotional weight. So they're all great in their own ways. I'd pick the Giants fight if I had to though.

Yeah the Frost Giant battle definately showed Thor's power better than any other fight, although the fight with Loki was good as well and from what I hear their fight in The Avengers is even better.

What do I see there? Thats surprising.
Destroyer battle: 4 votes
Fight with shield agents: 5 votes
Although I enjoyed that simple brawl I think the Destroyer battle was far more impressive. It seems to suffer under the huge popularity of the Frost Giant battle.
Only my opinion.
