MS could be glad to get her as Enchantress or Danvers

 

[terry78]

Gunning for Enchantress personally. She looks a little soft for Danvers.

 

[BoredGuy]

Definitely interesting that she refers to Feige as Kevin, they must've talked at some point
Haven't seen much of her acting though so I have no opinion

She's okay at screaming.

There, I said something positive about her acting.

That's about the only thing I can think of though. Everything else about her was pretty forgettable.

Hmm... I wasn't particularly impressed with her in INTO DARKNESS but... Okay, I could maybe see her as Enchantress or Hela.

 

[Mike Murdock]

She would have to have a radically different personality from Into Darkness to pull off Hela. I could see her as Amora if I had to.

 

[Dark Raven]

I don't know that she really suits Enchantress. Sure, she's attractive, but is she alluring enough to be Amora? And does she really have the acting chops for that role? She is a bit short too at 5'4". At least get someone who is 5'8" at the minimum.

 

[TeeKay]

I think she was good in Into Darkness.

 

[JtheDreamer]

I couldn't keep my eyes off her in "She's Out of My League". I'm not really a blonde guy, but she does it for me. That accent too!

Does anyone else kinda wish this didn't have a direct tie in to the build up to IW? That's not to say that the outcome shouldn't affect where Thor is at in his life come IW but... I sort of wish looking back, that the Infinity Stone macguffin wasn't the basis for TDW's plot. If they could have started out someplace else, I think the rest of the story to flow out would have possibly been more to my liking. Like I always say, the idea of Thor going from realm to realm, fighting marauders, leading Asgard's Armies and The Warriors Three and acting as an emissary of Odin... Yeah that set up alone sounds better than what went down in TDW.

I am actually hoping that TR is less influenced by Thanos' machinations and more about Asgard itself and Thor facing one or many of his classic enemies.

Agreed. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Well, in ONE way I can see some kind of tie-in is Surtur's powers could be an Infinity Stone, and he can be one of the those Ancient races that used them before.
on another sort of connecting subect, did anyone notice on Blindspot, one of the new clues has a Viking head over a doorway arch?

Do all the Infinity Stones have the power to destroy planets or is it just the power stone? If Thanos had the Mind stone why didnt he just start doing that?

Because the Mind Stone controls minds?

 

[Mjölnir]

I don't think all of them work like that. The Mind Stone does not seem like a power source for that kind of destruction from any use of it we've seen. Vision didn't display more power than the other heavy hitting Avengers and otherwise it just affected minds/intellects in different ways.

And on the opposite side Malekith had found a way to make the Reality Stone destroy the universe, not just a planet, so that was vastly more powerful but in a very specific scenario. Hard to say what would happen if Malekith let the power of the Aether loose like that but without the convergence portals nearby.

As for Thanos, I don't think he's particularly interested in destroying a planet, he has much larger goals. While he did want the Power Stone from Ronan before he would destroy Xandar for him Ronan still deemed Thanos capable of the task way before he had any clue that Thanos wanted an Infinity Stone.

Didn't the Collector say a GROUP tried using the stones and they were destroyed?

 

[Supa]

So there's likely an Infinity stone somewhere in Thor's plot. The question is, which one? We need the soul and time gems, right? My initial guess would be the time stone, maybe somehow stopping or reversing Ragnorok.

But there's also the theory that floats by every now and then that the Infinity stones and what they're contained in spell "T.H.A.N.O.S." If that ends up being true, one theory I had is that Heimdall is gonna bite the dust, and it'll turn out that his all-seeing and all hearing is due to the Soul gem. The Thor movies explain that the magic of Asgard is just advanced science, so it'd make some sense, and it would put the 'H' in the Thanos theory.

 

[Mike Murdock]

H could be relatively anything, though. It could be Hory Hosts of Hoggoth

 

[Supa]

That's true, but Heimdall's cameo in Age of Ultron did draw attention to his eyes, and it seemed like it would be foreshadowing. It could be nothing but a set-up to his line of seeing Thor leading them to Hel, but that's what speculation is for.

 

[LowlifeZar]

Heimdall somehow possessing the soul stone would be pretty cool, but not probable. What comes to mind is heimdalls TDW quote
“From here I can see nine realms and ten trillion souls.”

 

[Vartha]

I can see the time stone seeing as every time there's a Ragnarok, MOST events on Asgard repeat themselves for the most part in the new cycle. Maybe that's what Surtur does.

 

[BoredGuy]

I think she was good in Into Darkness.

I'd trek into her darkness!


I'm sorry, it was there, I had to...
