Comic Con Trailer Description

[Rock Sexton]

how else woudl you do asgard if not for sets unless you wanted it half CGI/half set which i think they did

They filmed at a studio the entire time for that. I would've preferred something more along the lines of LOTR and their use of locales.

Wow, some of your complaints are a little odd. I mean, you just hate all of New Mexico?

Who said anyone hates all of New Mexico? From what little they showed, it lacks a little sizzle movie-wise.

 

[Rock Sexton]

I thought Asgard looked phenomenal. Those shots with the camera panning around, showing us Asgard in all its splendor, were really well done. I liked little touches like the two moons in one scene. Definitely tells us that this is an otherworldly place.

Ya that part is fine. I'm referring to where the Frost Giants were .... as well as in the palace. I've seen a few others mention it, but it feels "confined" to me.

 

[spider-neil]

my favorite bit is when thor tries to life the hammer and can't. I wondered what would happen if thor was no longer worthy. its cool that thor would go on a rampage and then out of the blue he would be no longer able to lift mjolnir, that is so much cooler than greasy emo hair (SM3) or dirty spandex (Superman 3) to depict a hero turned bad.

 

[S.A.A.D.]

I thought that the Frost Giants looked disappointing too. The lion sound for Thor was noteworthy,but bad too,he's not a lion.

Eh, it's just a lot of desert. Maybe I'm used to it because of Breaking Bad. Then again, if the Earth settings were really impressive, it'd detract from the wonder of Asgard a bit.

The CC trailer is very cool. I am now more hyped for Thor than Green Lantern.

 

[S.A.A.D.]

Eh, that's okay, as I don't think I've ever agreed with a single opinion you've expressed on the boards. It's got to the point where you hating the look of something is almost the final seal of approval that confirms it'll be worth watching.

But yeah, as Corp says, it might seem like a generic zombie tale at first, but it really becomes very much it's own beast as it progresses, and the TV medium is the perfect format to adapt that kind of story. And AMC is where it's at in TV Land these days.

If it is true that me and you have never agreed on anything,then perhaps the time will come where the both of us will.

Eh, fair enough, I guess. I didn't get that feeling, but I suppose I can see how one would. Still, every building's gotta have hallways. The throne room looks magnificent and sprawling, and I'm assuming we'll see more of that than the hallways of the palace.

I just don't want Asgard relegated to one panning CGI shot of the entire kingdom and then be locked up in Odin's throne or the Frost Giants den. Knowing the budget limitations, the threat of this is a real possibility. I guess that's what I mean by cramped.

I've always been more hyped for Thor than Green Lantern.

 

[misjuevos]

I like how they show the cosmos I hope they get the 9 realms down and shown

 

[BigSams50]

Just saw the trailer and i must say, it gave me goosebumps. Cant wait for Thor!!!

 

[Avengers-Report]

I've always been more hyped for Thor than Green Lantern.

Not me. There is just something about GL that makes him special But in reality, the Thor trailer blew GL away. Can't argue that one.

Don't get me wrong; GL is a great hero, but I've always been more interested in Thor (and cap for that matter).

I'm still rooting for Green Lantern but yeah, Thor's trailer destroys it.

I can't say too much because it's too early. The color correction was not there nor was the CGi but that's not the fault of the crew. So far, everything looks good but the Earth scene looks so small. Isolated. Maybe there's a lot more to it.

I definitely did not look as promising as Thor. However, I truly believe Marvel Studios puts more effort into preparing their footage for Comic-Con and maybe we just haven't seen anything good from Green Lantern yet.

 

[Octoberist]

My theory is that, at one time, WB and DC were going to release a whole lot more footage, but the CGI wasn't ready especially with the Green Lantern suit.

I think people can excuse bad CGI on certain things, like pre-renders of Oa or the constructs, but the suit is the selling point. Also, I think they're still tweaking the design (as evident with the tweaking of the mask for the GL Banner at the Warner Bros booth at Comic Con).

But again, they could have more scenes with Ryan as Hal sans costume.

 

[Project862006]

difference is Thor finished filming in May and had from May till Comic Con which was July to get a trailer and CGI Ready

GL is still filming

I still think it's ridiculous that there isn't a physical suit, that it's all mocap. I hope they know what they're doing.

Anyway I've decided to give the Thor trailer a 7.5 out of 10. I would probably go 8 if it had finished sfx.

 

[knowsbleed]

The gods from Clash of the Titans looked much more impressive/commanding than what I've seen of the Thor trailer.

Thor looks... underwhelming. It's setting up too much for The Avengers. Why can't it be a standalone movie without the crutches of being a prequel to The Avengers? That's just predictable.

 

[ElMariachi]

I thought that the trailer/footage was awesome.

-Chris Hemsworth looks like a great Thor and seems like he will give the character (who is notoriously boring) some life. I am sure the ladies will love him and the dudes will be wowed by the beatdowns he lays on people.

-The action looked pretty top notch from what I saw. The fight between Thor and Loki looked great, as did Thor taking out a whole room of guys. Fighting with the hammer will translate well and was something I wasn't sure of.

-Odin was good. Didn't hear too much from Loki but I think he looked good. Especially liked it when Odin put him in his place.

-Volstagg, Sif, Heimdall, Fandral, Hogun looked good. Wish Hogun had the stache' though. Not understanding the criticism of Heimdals eyes. I didn't even notice it until the nitpickers brought it up.

-Asgard looked great from what I saw, although it was on a small computer screen and not in great definition.

-I like Coulson. Never understood why some have a problem with him in these movies. I hope his interrogation of Thor is his only long speech. Thought he was great leading up to the Destroyer. The Destroyer was great!

-Portman/Dennings--no real suprises here.




This movie is already attracting alot of haters. But that shouldn't suprise me anymore that it's apparent that people have taken a blood oaths to D.C./Nolan in a similar fashion as those barbarians did for Sauroman in Two Towers. I just hope the fanboys on here don't build this movie up to such insane, lofty expectations like they did Iron Man 2 (which was great). This movie looks like a great superhero movie and something that should be very entertaining. If you want an Oscar movie---buzz off and go watch Frost/Nixon for christsakes. It's a sad day when people can't be entertained or excited for an action/summer blockbuster without Academy Award ambitions. You know there is a problem when people are holding Transformers to the same standards as actual dramas without CGI.

Liam Neeson was the only thing that was commanding in those trailers. No other actor made a dent... clearly Hopkins was just as good as Neeson in that trailer. But I do have problems with the trailer. Seems very hit and miss. They are gonna nail certain aspects, and they are going to come up well short in others. I had some lukewarm feelings after watching it many times over.

Where's the mythology? It looks much more futuristic than mythological.

 

[Chewy]

That's how Marvel's Thor has always looked
