That is what I think. Loki is a trickster and illusionist.

It would be a interesting twist for the audience to think Loki betrayed Thor only to find out he didn't.

No listing yet but Thor"s first movie was 150 Million, so I would guess close to 200 Million...

[marcvader]

Really doubt it could be under $150 mil by much if at all.

Maybe that's the "what will you sacrifice" thing. He either sacrifices part of himself, or something, to save Jane. However, that route would lead to a bad series of events? And Loki knows it would get him killed. Where as perhaps the right thing to do would be the sacrifice of Jane (which would still end up with Thor killing Loki).

Maybe then, we get more of the trickster Loki...where he pushes Malekith into killing Jane. SO not only does he get the outcome that is desired, Jane's sacrifice, which according to...visions, I guess, is the right thing. But this sacrifice, in thor's eyes, were caused by Malekith, leaving Loki in the clear.

This one was different. It appeared to have Malaketh(sp?) in the center.

I'm at work and can't upload images but here's a link to where I found it.

It's most likely fake but figured I'll see if you guys can tell.

It´s made by a fan. That Looki pose is from TA I think.

[T"Challa]

I actually wouldnt mind seeing Thor get his hand chopped off for real. It's not like it will stay that way, Odin can fix that by snapping his fingers. But a moment like that would show a level of raw brutality not seen thus far in the MCU and would legitimately shock audiences. And i think it would be the moment that shows Loki as truly beyond any sort of redemption

Beyond fake.

From Hemsworth, about handgate:

“Is that the footage they showed? I haven’t seen it yet. I’m trying to get hold of it somehow. I wish I could have been there. I can’t say too much more about it. But I will tell you that’s not the worst thing that he has to worry about along the way.” But, with a winking tone, Hemsworth sounded like a viking soul as far as making the best of the situation. ”Maybe I will have to learn to use the hammer with the left hand, you know? Or I was thinking of maybe just attaching it. I could ram it straight down into the stump. That would be very Game of Thrones in approach.”

And the Avengers game that was in development gets cancelled.

As long as i get a Marvel vs Capcom 4 I could less about all the other subpar comic book video games out there. Capcom and the companty that makes the Batman games are the only companies that make quality comic games.

The Captain America video game is actually pretty good. The developer of that game (Next Level Games) developed my favorite game on the Wii which is Punch-Out!! They also developed Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon and the Mario Strikers games.

Well I just had one of the major scenes from the Comic Con footage spoiled for me by CBM

[Thor Odinson]

I don't know if it's been posted, but here's a confirmation about Kronans being in the movie:

Thor: The Dark World co-writer Christopher Yost revealed to Marvel.com that the stone-like creature, who was taunted by Thor before being smashed to bits, in the Comic-Con footage is actually one of the Kronans. This is the alien race that claims to be from Saturn and are also Thor's first enemies in his Journey Into Mystery #83 origins story.

[Mightyally]

Thx for that. Will be fun to see him smash em in the movie. 3 months and 4 days left for me. That´s not so bad

Kind of a weak creature if you ask me. I mean rock people? I guess the CGI costs were being allocated in other places.

[Thor Odinson]

I don't see the problem. It's a nice nod to Thor's comic history and is potentially cool looking. Also, i don't think one creature will kill the CGI budget.

[Wolvieboy17]

What's wrong with rock people? For a guy with 'rock' in his username, you certainly seem pessimistic :P

LOL.
It should feel like the Thing done right (but much bigger and menacing).

[Wolvieboy17]

I'm just picturing Thor destroying stuff in The Neverending Story... and I like it!

[BigThor]

I'm actually excited that races as "out there" as the Kronans are being used, those guys are no slouches either they're pretty strong. With that bit of information being released I can't wait to see what other races make up the "marauder" army.

I'd like to see some Badoon troops and maybe even a few Rock Trolls, a few actual giants or monstrous creatures would be nice as well.
