Chris Hemsworth is Thor

[Antonello Blueberry]

Never mind the fact that one is physically possible and the other isn't.

'cause you meet lots of metal guys at the gym, don't you?

 

[Brian Braddock]

I tend not to go to gyms to meet metal guys, Antonio.

One of your hobbies?

 

[spider-neil]

Never mind the fact that one is physically possible and the other isn't.

I think it is possible to achieve such a physique but not without... 'help'*






*steriods

 

[Antonello Blueberry]

No, we have metal guys clubs here in Rome and I go there.
I stopped going to the gym years ago, I can't stand the horrible music they usually have on.

 

[RockSP]

I can't wait to hear Hemsworth's Thor voice. Hopefully he can pull off sounding like a god.

And what does a god sound like, exactly?

 

[Canis Sapiens]

It sounds like this:

I thought Hemsworth was great in the small role he was given in Star Trek. He definitely made that opening scene emotionally powerful, while still coming off as a strong character. That whole scene kind of makes me pine for a new Star Trek series set aboard the Kelvin in the original, unaltered universe. Oh well.

Back on topic, given the small amount of work I've seen him in, I think Hemsworth will be excellent as Thor. My only thought is about how well he'll mesh with RDJ, Jackson and Norton (if he's in it, is that guaranteed?), as well as whoever is cast as Captain America in the Avengers movie. I would hate to see a character who is a god be overshadowed because of the performances and star status of the other characters and their respective actors.

 

[DocHoliday]

He'll have his work cut out for him, in that department. Those guys have strong personalities. I think he's up to the challenge, but is Zak Penn?

 

[Brian Braddock]

I think a more pertinant question would be 'are they all ready for the challenge of Zak Penn'?

 

[Mad Ones]

And what does a god sound like, exactly?

Well, he should have a regal, deep, and forceful voice, that makes him distinct, but not too silly sounding.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Eat his vitamins? Don't you mean steroids?

No, I hear if you up your daily vitamin C intake to 5000%, you can gain 100lbs of lean muscle in a week!

how anyone could perfer this;the character in the first pitcure looks like he eats steroids for breakfast, lunch and dinner, the latter pitcure looks lean, athletic and healthy.
I'd rather thor looked like picture 2 than picture one.

Colossus is supposed to be the X-Men's muscle. People like Cyclops are the ones supposed to look "lean" and "athletic". The team muscle(Thing, Sasquatch, Strong Guy, Ares, etc) are usually huge, often steroid-huge. Every depiction I've ever seen of Warpath is bigger than Cassaday's drawing of Petey and on what planet is Warpath bigger than Colossus?

Never mind the fact that one is physically possible and the other isn't.

I think it is possible to achieve such a physique but not without... 'help'*

*steriods

Yeah, the pic I quoted of Colossus is pretty ridiculous, but I've seen him drawn VERY muscular, but in a way that's actually attainable. Most of the people in the world who are that big, aren't actors so I'd never have expected Cudmore to be quite that big.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

On topic: I'm not too worried about Chris' physique for Thor. He's already pretty big and Thor doesn't really require you to have much definition. He'll be ok

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Thor's pretty defined in the comics. This ain't Superman, who's just naturally big but doesn't get a ton of exercise because nothing can provide it for him. This is a dude who started out naturally big and fought things at or above his level in Asgard for his millennia-long life.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Thor's always had that big ex-football player look to me. Not like Cyclops who looks like a Calvin Klein model.

 

[WillardNation]

Yeah, I would say a God would have quite a bit of definition.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Haha, is that a requirement for a god? Cuz I can think of many out of shape gods.

 

[Khemik@L]

Haha, is that a requirement for a god? Cuz I can think of many out of shape gods.

you mean like Odin? Hehe

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Volstaag is even worse

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Odin's just old. He was in damned good shape when he was younger. Volstagg, too. Can't blame a guy for loving his mead.

 

[NEXUS 6]

Hemsworth has until January to bulk up. Not that he really needs to bulk up that much. I mean, he is a god, so steroid huge muscles aren't necessary to swing a hammer around, killing giants. The fact that, once again, HE IS A GOD, makes me suspend disbelief a tad. I am behind Hemsworth and his muscles all the way.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

He's a very visceral god, though. Magical strength isn't as effective an explanation for him as it might be for a god whose entire culture isn't built around war.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Odin's just old. He was in damned good shape when he was younger. Volstagg, too. Can't blame a guy for loving his mead.

How much mead has Volstaag had?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Given that he's almost as old as Odin, a lot.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

He needs to get on that Fandral anorexia diet

 

[broblacksteel]

lets not leave room for errors here...

THOR should be ripped and huge!!! He is the muscle of the avengers and a frickin god!!!

Here me out, i and many others should be disappointed if Chris doesn't get to Hugh Jackmans size or bigger.

In the next 3 yrs we will get a Hercules movie, a Conan Move and maybe a He-Man movie. (we dont want our thor being the smallest of these characters on screen in the future.. right?)

Lets have our thor at least look like he hit the 300 diet plus 10lbs. I dont think im asking for too much eh?
