Loki threatned Jane because he wanted to angry Thor into fighting him. As long as his brother is angry, Loki is satisfied. And nearly enslaving the entire human race is enough to get Thor royaly pissed off.

 

[BigThor]

Loki views humans as insects, and believes in his advantage due to the Tesseract and his army. He wouldn't miss time capturing Jane in order to taunt his brother when invading Earth and threatning innocents lives already gets the necessary rise out of Thor.

Basically, she's insignificant to Loki.

At best, I expect a ''Where's Jane?'' from Thor, and a ''she's safe'' from Fury.

At best.

Yep and that would be enough for me.

 

[Rock Sexton]

I agree, but alot of people seem to be obsessed with her for some reason.

The obsession over this issue is freakin' unhealthy. My God. We're about to witness one of those most kick-ass, if not THE most kickass CBM in history and guys like AB are whining about this Jane issue.

Some seriously need a time-out until the premiere. Back away, get some fresh air ..... stop worrying about every frickin' little detail of this film.

 

[Matt Mortem]

Assuming Thor meets with Selvig it should be taken for granted they will talk about Jane.

This. With Selvig and Thor in the movie there will be some reference to Jane. I'm almost certain of it.

 

[Poni_Boy]

Well we do have some information. Portman is contractually obligated to continue with the franchise and we know that Hiddleston is too. So if Loki is in another Thor film (which they really should be giving him a break) then I can only assume he's there to be menacing.

I'm going off the fact that during their fight in the Thor movie, Loki threatens to go after Jane right in Thor's face. Who's to say he won't make good on that threat? He certainly seems scorned. I personally think Portman's talent was completely wasted in Thor and her character was dumbed down to nothing. I get the whole "star-crossed lovers" thing, but boy was it pulled off bad. If she's still on for this franchise, then she definitely needs to be reinvigorated. Her being under threat from Loki (not necessarily kidnapped) would be a good way for me to want to care about her and also care about Thor saving her. I can already see a scenario where Loki could make Thor choose between Sif and Jane through some big scheme he hatches. That would actually be pretty cool.

Yep, be we all know how Marvel is with their contractual obligations. If keeping Portman doesn't fit into their needs/wants then they won't. I highly doubt she cares about continuing her role of Jane unless the studio really wants her.

And, yes, he did threaten Thor with that line but now we have a whole new (and intricate) story in The Avengers. There's no telling if Loki's was an empty threat to piss Thor off, something he plans to make due on at a later time or if now his grudge has extended to all of humanity and Jane is insignificant. Hell, we don't even know who's side Loki's is on at the end of Avengers. Till we know all that we don't know if Jane is even a piece of the future puzzle that is Thor 2.

I felt it succeeded at what it was mean to be, but it could definately be expanded upon in THOR II if Marvel really wants to that route.

Yep. Exactly. They were smitten with each other. Nothing more than that was presented in Thor. IF Marvel chooses to expand on their story they can. If they choose not to for whatever reason, they can as well and it won't take away from what was originally presented. It was Thor's first crush, not ultimate and undying love. At this point it can go either way.

Just wait .... you're about to get lectured on the unspoken ways of "love" ... LOL .... trust me, it's coming.

Would make the most sense.

 

[mara]

Yep and that would be enough for me.

That little nod would be enough for me as well.....

 

[Splat]

I wonder if we'll get any kind of backstory on the origin of the cube. Like if the Asgardians made it or if they got it from some other race like they did with the Casket from the frost giants.

Odin stole it! lol jk

I've wondered the same, be it in CA all we got was a "Jewel of Odins vault" and an "unlimited power" in the after credit scene.

Yep, whenever Jane gets brought up my eyes go "O_O" and it's not because she wasn't important in THOR it's just that she's not important to THIS film.

This is "The Avengers not THOR 2", so Loki being the villain in this film is enough to cement Thor's importance to the plot.

 

[Mysteryman]

Like I've said before, hoping for a random abduction to lead into another movie when we don't even know A) how Tho/Loki's relationship will be at the end of this film and B) if Portman even plans to return, makes no sense. There isn't enough information to even begin to guess what would benefit Thor 2's plot, much less how Jane Foster would fit into it. Not only is Jane the weakest link of the bunch when it comes to Marvel's significant others, but she's also the only one with a pinch hitter

Well the only Pinch hitter we have seen on screen anyway .
Given Tony's Prolific Romantic History ,
There are quite a few possibilties to replace Pepper .
And for Cap, there is always Sharon Carter, waiting in the wings .

I couldn't agree more. There's going to be so much going on in this epic flick, I couldn't care less if Jane is in this. Would it be cool? Sure. Would a mention be nice? Sure. Are there other ways to build tension and get Thor's full attention? Hell yeah (like his brother trying to capture/kill millions of innocents).

Have these been posted yet? Marvel Latino made some mini character trailers..nothing new though

[SpideyFan866]

I think the oerfect way to include all of the heroes's significant others is that after the battle/war is over, have Coulson walk up to the team and have him tell them they have their (Thor, Hulk, Tony, and maybe Cap) girlfirends on the phone for them.

They can then have their girls yell at them for the dangerous things they did in the midst of battle and complaining about how worried they were.

 

[protocida]

The Tesseract is ''the fire of the Gods''.

This is "The Avengers not THOR 2", so Loki being the villain in this film is enough to cement Thor's importance to the plot.

And yet preserving continuity between the movies is important, part of their success. I'm grateful for it. t: So who knows what direction we will go, I'm looking forward to it all. More Thor please! lol

 

[protocida]

Yeah, they air those ''mini-trailers'' all the time on DisneyXD Brazil. Especially when the cartoon is on.

 

[terry78]

Does Jane even know he's back on Earth in this flick yet? It would be nice if we get like one cameo or whatever at the end of her finding out or something.

 

[Still A ThorFan]

I'm glad this is coming out next month over seas first. By May 5th there will be a good copy online I can watch, thus avoiding watching the movie with annoying people and over paying for a movie ticket.

 

[Whiskey Tango]

It's weird how every time Alexei can't find anyone to agree with him Bobby shows up and does just that. Convenient is the word that comes to mind.

They're going to preserve continuity. It's not even a question (minus TIH which we know Feige hates). They're saving the heavier interpersonal relationships for the individual sequels ...... as they should .... why would they want to rob themselves of material? The Avengers is like some world threatening, motley crue summer camp for these guys .... odd comparison, but that's what it is.

[jonathancrane]

I'd rather they keep the role of the love interests minimum.

Hmmmm .....
