what if it's a vision by heimdal? Or something?

Think about it. If we are getting into the mythology, and prophecies, what if it's a vision the vanir have or heimdal have

[Thor Odinson]

It could be so many things, in fact. A vision, an illusion made by Loki...

Yes, this has been one of the theories I have regarded to be most likely

[Thor Odinson]

Any other theories?

That makes sense if he's just going to be Angry warrior who might butt heads with Thor.

Lol the old 'Marketing is terrible' line. It's funny how the people talking and complaining about the marketing for movies are the people who matter the least in marketing terms. They're already talking about the film, they're going to see it regardless. So who cares? :P

[Scarecrow_King]

Marvel movies need close to no marketing now, anyways. If people see just one commercial or poster to tell them when the movie is in theaters, they will be there.

[Wolvieboy17]

Movies like Guardians of the Galaxy and Antman are the ones that need more marketing. I mean, I sure the Thor Trailer before Wolverine last night... Everyone cheered at the Marvel Logo and then even louder at the first shot of Thor then brought the house down with Loki... Their marketing is doing it's job perfectly.

[Scarecrow_King]

Even Ant-Man has the combination of Edgar Wright and Marvel. If The World's End does as well as Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, I don't think it will be hard to get people to see Ant-Man.

Guardians will probably be a harder sell. But after seeing the footage at Comic Con, I 100% think people will want to see it if they're shown anything that was even close to as good as what Marvel showed there.

Sounds awesome, I always wondered if they were going to go deeper into the Asgardians mythology.

Actually Thor is physically stronger than Odin, just nowhere near as powerful.

We were not talking about Odin, BigThor, but about the gods who, in myth and comics, are know to have the greatest physical strength.
Those would be Thor, Magnir and Vidar.

Edgar Wright is popular among a smaller cult following. He's not a mainstream director who headlines the movies he makes.

[Joeyjojo72]

I was sort of hoping that they would delve into Thor's parentage, ie the fact(?) that Frigga is his stepmother and Gaia (sp?) is his real momma. Maybe during a conversation between Frigga and Jane they could briefly mention it: "there's a reason why Thor has such a strong connection to your planet..."

Also, why no Balder?

Yes. If this movie is to dive into the mythology, and we know Surtur probably follows, maybe there will be prophecies, or visions by Heimdal. Perhaps it's a vision. Of an event that leads to other events.

That's a good one.

I hope Loki escapes in T:TDW and releases Surtur in the next

I wonder if the fangirls would still defend him if he did that. LOL.

They still love him after leading an alien invasion so he can get away with anything in their eyes.

Yes I think so lol. Btw found this

Ok. That seems likely. They edited the big "Noooo!" moment with the footage shown at SDCC. I am not totally against something like this happening. It could be interesting and dramatic. Plus it would quiet the "MARVEL films are no stakes kid films" detractors some. I can go either way really. I like flights of fancy adventure with my superheros. I like big serious dramatic takes on my superheros. I'm lucky that I get both kinds of films now.

I thought there was a lot at stake in IM3. It was certainly darker but mixed with fun and light hearted moments

I would like for Loki to be totally absent in the next movie..Not that I dislike him, its just time for Thor to shine on his own without always having to call for help.......

[Mightyally]

Bubububut that would mean no Tom.....

[MrMaooz]

[Wontkins]

Good. The less Tom the better. So sick and tired of hearing about how brilliant that Hiddleston is. Overrated.

Seriously though. Reading about this movie on the internet is a nightmare because no matter where you go, Loki always takes over the discussion. There are so many other interesting aspects of this film that gets overlooked because all people talk about is Tom Hiddleston. I've heard barely any discussion about Tyr, I've heard hardly any discussion about Malekith and his motives, I've heard almost nothing about Algrim/Kurse, every time I go anywhere on the internet that is discussing Thor, its all about Loki.

I really hope he's not in the next one, but then again if he wasn't all the internet would be talking about would be his absence...

[Thor Odinson]

LOL. You'll anger them...
