This was mainly a set up episode. I believe heads will start rolling in the next episode.:word:

Yeah, Alan Taylor nailed GoT. I think he'll nail the vibe of Asgard and the surrounding realms.

Even if it takes a few episodes to get going, the war of 5 kings is coming. I think Thor is going to be in good hands, Plus Kenneth Branagh is staying on as a producer.

Agreed. We'll have an even better picture of his work on GoT later on. He'll be directing three more episodes of this season (the next, 8 and 10); also he's a co-producer of this show now.:word:

Btw, i've found one interview with him, where there's a mention about Thor 2.

Game Of Thrones Season 2 director Alan Taylor interview exclusive

by James Hoare

Game Of Thrones and Thor 2 director Alan Taylor on Season 2, diverging storylines, fearing the fanbase and changing the source material


Director and, as of Season 2, co-executive producer Alan Taylor, may be no stranger to HBO’s exacting standards – having helmed episodes of everything from Sex And The City and The Sopranos, to Mad Men and Broadwalk Empire – but in Game Of Thrones, he’s come up against a set of challenges unique to the groundbreaking fantasy series.
“There’s the war, and there was some expanding the worlds that was set up in the first season – there was an appetite to see it get bigger,” explained Taylor at the launch party for Game Of Thrones The Complete First Season, “so there’s more and more countries and farther afield.
“I guess the biggest challenge narratively, which is a part of that, is the stories we set up in the first season are diverging for now, they’re getting further apart and each one is taking on more stature, so it’s getting harder and harder to keep track of them all – one unit’s in Iceland, one unit’s in Croatia, and we didn’t have a whole lot of money.
“The challenge with any of this fantasy work is achieving the epic and also making it connect emotionally,” Taylor continues, “and doing it for less money than your average blockbuster – it doubles the challenge. I’m amazed by what we were able to pull off.”
“Achieving the epic and making it connect emotionally” could well apply to Alan Taylor’s next big directorial gig as the HBO stalwart is only working on one episode of Season 3 in order to concentrate on Thor 2, following up not only Kenneth Branagh’s first film, but Joss Whedon’s Avengers Assemble in which Chris Hemsworth’s thunder god co-stars.
It’s not just the vast world he’s helped bring to the screen that’ll prep him for Thor 2, but the built-in fanbase the production team have had to wrestle with.


“We’re all right to be terrified of the fanbase,” Taylor admits, “because they can be your biggest supporter and they can be your worst enemy depending on whether they give you the stamp of approval.”

A major factor in that is the changes made from book to film, which have been relatively few so far – at least compared to The Walking Dead and True Blood – but Taylor reveals that the demands of episodic television are forcing executive producers David Benioff and DB Weiss to be less than faithful with the source material, George RR Martin’s five-book (to date!) A Song Of Ice And Fire, in making Game Of Thrones Season 2.
“David and Dan have been cutting out quite a lot of material in the book to narrow it down to its essence, and creating material too and actually making more of some characters, but yes,” he says, agreeing that it’s a necessity for television to be flexible with the material that inspired it.
“Cutting between the worlds is one of the trickiest things for us and we’re still learning how to do it,” Taylor continues, “whether to group the storylines together or separate them and cut between them.
“As a director, you get to focus on the overall view of it and you have to see how it fits into the overall context and this year I was more involved in the overall context – so yeah, you have to keep one eye on that, there’s a tendency to forget that and just concentrate on the movie you’re making.”
Game Of Thrones Season 2 begins April 2 on Sky Atlantic HD.

I don't necessarily know about Villains but I kinda hope Thor 2 becomes more of an adventure film than an overt character piece.

Maybe Loki enlists Maliketh to capture Jane Austin and Thor has to search the 9 realms for her or something...or better yet someone steals the infinity gauntlet (which could lead to Avengers 2) and Thor takes a crew on a journey through the 9 realms

really just flesh out the Marvel Universe and give it some depth I think would be very cool

MarvelKnight
04-04-2012, 10:52 AM
I think you mean Jane Foster..Jane Austen was an author. lol.

The Infinity Gauntlet should be saved for Thanos, which, imho, will be for Avengers 3. I suppose I wouldn't mind that for Thor 2, but that is a lot of time for the Infinity Gauntlet to be on the lam and whatnot.

I think I heard mention that Thor 2 will have more to do with some of the other realms so you may get a little of your adventure type film though.

I did mean Foster lol....


I don't know too much about Thanos but it would be kind of neat if we could use Thor 2 as a device to get the IG out into the open (like the ring in LOTR) so that Thanos can get it at the beginning of A2.

Like Thor chooses to destroy the Gunatlet with his Hammer at the end of the movie, but it just shatters so they hide the pieces all around the 9 realms....but between the end of T2 and the beginning of A2 Thanos has completely rebuilt the Gauntlet or is searching for the final piece (which happens to be hidden in Earth or with SHIELD or what not and that is the first half of the movie, protecting that piece and the 2nd half is trying to stop Thanos

idk sounds like a good movie to me. A) I don't remember enough about Thanos/Gauntlet to know if this is possible (can the Gauntlet even be broken or seperated like that?) B) I'm sure it will never happen

MarvelKnight
04-04-2012, 03:35 PM
Well the Gauntlet has individual Infinity Gems, but I'd assume anything with the Gauntlet though would have a full compliment of Gems already with it.

Either way Luke Goss would be a great edition to the cast!! Good Call whoever suggested him! (Malekith!!!!!)
http://i.imgur.com/5xZej.jpg
BigThor, I like the middle one but I would guess that they'd go with the first one. It seems closer in feel, to the design of frost giants in the first movie. Probably a bit cheaper to produce than a guy constantly surrounded by flames on his head.

BigThor
04-14-2012, 08:27 PM
^ I'd be okay with that, that design is still a pretty cool take on Surtur even without the flaming head.

Luke Goss as Malekith and Tricia Helfer as Hela would be awesome, but Amanda Seyfried is probably my top choice for Amora.

Aeltri
04-16-2012, 08:19 PM
Let's see, they both are elven princes with a grudge against humanity. Their look is vaguely similar...let's cast the same guy from HB2. That would be a monumentally bad idea because despite the few things they do have in common Malekith is a completely different character from Nuada. The more and more I look at casting suggestions the more Benedict Cumberbatch seems like the best choice. There were rumors a while back of him being considered for a role in an upcoming Marvel film. Dr. Strange isn't due to come out any time soon so everything points to Thor 2.

Thinking of Enchantress and Executioner for the sequel is giving me goosebumps.

Thinking of Odin/Thor/Loki vs Surtur in part 3= i can't explain the feeling.

Surtur should be the main villain in part 3, but he should be introduced in the sequel. It will make the wait for part 3 very painful.

^ Once again, I agree with you :word:

I like Enchantress & Executioner for Thor 2. Surtur definitely makes the most sense for Thor 3 IMO, if for some reason it's the final movie then it needs a big (literally and metaphorically) villain.

I love the idea of Thor/Odin/Loki vs. Surtur in the third movie.

There's no real imperative for Marvel to use villains that are exclusive to the Thor comics, which is why I think that, based on an easter egg from Thor and the ending/events of The Avengers, there's a strong possibility of Thanos having some part to play in Thor 2, even if he's just 'pulling strings' again.

Take for example Loki and Hela, since he's her father Loki's obviously older but you couldn't tell by looking at them.

Loki is gonna have a bit more to do then just be in the background. After trying to rule earth and failing, Odin will deal with him and Others from the galaxy will be after him.

To me Loki was the main reason why Thor was so good. I hope hes a major player. Maybe not the only source of trouble but definitely more then a background player. Hes the Best villain the Marvel film universe has right now, and one of the most popular in terms of audience awareness thanks to Avnegers.

I like Enchantress & Executioner for the sequel, with Loki around (locked up, maybe he has information that Thor needs so there's some scenes with the 2). Then, have Surtur somehow released in Thor 3 with him waging war against all the realms (a major threat that unites all of Asgard, good and bad, against this common threat...of course, Loki would try to seize control of the situation and maybe end up being the actual big baddie w/ a glorious final battle between the 2 brothers).

05-24-2012, 06:59 PM
Well, with the way IM's casting is going, I wouldn't be surprised if there is another main villain besides malekith added to thor.(though we still don't know if it is official yet...).

Loki may still have a 'big part' but I still think it will be more indirect of an influence for the most part.

maybe they take a cue from EMH and it was malekith with amora as sort of his handler going after the casket. as a part of loki's grand plan

Obviously the end game would be different, but that possibility(of melekith and amora) is open now more than ever.

I agree, Enchantress and Skurge could be Malekith's "cohorts" while he would be the actual "main villain".
Skurge can be a very 1 dimensional villain if done wrong, the more I think of it, I'm not sure if I want him to appear in Thor 2.
A duo, consisting of Amora and Malekith, on the other hand, would be new (can't remember them pairing up in the comics) and could go in so many directions...

Skurge is Amora's sidekick/bodyguard. Hell, he doesn't even need lines. If Enchantress is in the film, Skurge is, too. They go together like Peaches 'n' Cream.

Skurge is around to protect Amora from physical threats and show us just how much of a seductress she can be.

I'm starting to warm up to the idea of Mads actually *being* Skurge, after all --- they may have a slightly different take on Skurge that makes him more than a musclehead bodyguard. I'd still say the most *likely* candidate for someone of Mads' look and persona is still Malekith, but who knows.

I think you're typecasting her based on her being Sarah from Chuck; I see no reason why she can't play a seductive villain. She's incredibly sexy. I actually think Alice Eve looks more like Ms. Marvel and Yvonne like Enchantress, but that's just me.

Well, I think Disney has been good thus far, in letting Marvel do what they do. Where there's a will, there's a way.

I wonder if all the villains we're gonna see in Thor films will always be of Asgardian origin (Loki, Destroyer, Malekith, Kurse, Enchantress, Executioner, Surtur etc.).

That would mean we'll never see the likes of Absorbing Man, Wrecker/Wrecking Crew, Mister Hyde and many other classic Thor foes.

Well, note that by "Asgardian origin" what you are really saying is "not-Earth origin." Of the ones you mention, only Loki, the Destroyer, the Enchantress, and the Executioner are Asgardian. Malekith and Kurse are from Svartalfheim, and Surtur is from Muspelheim.

The otherworldly Thor villains are just generally more interesting, IMO.

Some Thor stories definded Muspelheim and Svartalfheim as some kind of "sub-dimensions" of the Asgard dimension.

Which means that there are three definitions of Asgard: a plane of existence ("dimension", includes all the nine worlds), a continent and a city.
