Thor: Ragnarok The Official News and Speculation Thread - Part 8

[HammerDown]

This looks gorgeous. Oh my what an epic image. *.*

 

[Iceman]

Amazing!

 

[JtheDreamer]

So awesome they're using that for a display - especially the Jack Kirby art in the back.

Looks like it's a new poster. Oh and what a poster this thing is... Showstopper.

 

[Darepool]

I mean, what's there to say? Just let it wash all over you and bathe in it's glory.

 

[legendkillin]

They are really selling the Hulk vs Thor match if that is the poster. The movie has so much to offer, some may go for that match up and some may go for the Hela stuff. Then we get the real Ragnarok stuff like Surtur.

 

[legendkillin]

So Hela is officially Death which means she should be locked into IW?

 

[Flemm]

Well, Hela is the goddess of death already in the Thor-verse, so no, I don't think the name reveals anything about her involvement beyond this movie.

 

[Mike Murdock]

That doesn't make her officially Death. It says that she's the Goddess of Death, which is true in the comics as well.

 

[Darepool]

I hope she is though.

This is it. There is enough awesome to fill 3 films here. Hulk, Thor & Hela all look amazing but the real Ragnarok stuff is what I most want to see.

It's really apparent that they are holding back SO much from us. Which I love. I enjoyed the hell out of HOMECOMING but the campaign for it showed us too much. Here, unless you are following every single facet like toys etc. it looks like they are keeping their cards close to the vest.

Glorious.

Smart move I say. Focus the attention on Thor vs. Hulk and keep the rest of the stuff away or at least minimize the rest until the actual movie comes out (by that I mean Surtur, Hela, etc.).

 

[Iceman]

They're probably going to show at least a glimpse of those other things we haven't seen yet in the full trailer.

Yeah, that first trailer got so much buzz and goodwill I hope they keep a lot back going forward. I want more but don't give me a trailer that spells out the basic structure of the story or the arcs the characters are going to go on.

They're probably going to show at least a glimpse of those other things we haven't seen yet in the full trailer.

Oh for sure. And I want a little more of the spectacle which I am sure that second trailer will deliver.

If this trailer shows a few hints of all those things we know are in this film then Ragnarok has the chance of having one of the best 1-2 punch combinations of teaser and full trailer I can remember. I mean teasers are usually a waste of time for me but I won't ever forget that little bit of magic we got for this film.

 

[Vartha]

Well, Hela is the goddess of death already in the Thor-verse, so no, I don't think the name reveals anything about her involvement beyond this movie.

she's always been the goddess of Death for Asgard and the Norse. She just hasn't been Thanos' Death as other religions perceive Death as. She has Always wanted Thor's Soul because it was so pure with Honor and Nobility a soul easily accepted into Valhalla

 

[Vartha]

Plotzing over the new pics too! HOLY HELA I can't WAIT to see the trailer!

 

[Nathaniell]

Wow. Very interesting that you mention the word soul...and hela wanting Thor's soul. See...seems like I need to do some more comic book reading within the realm of all things related to Thor.

Yep get on that, compulsory homework!

 

[Solaire]

Never thought I'd like Thor with swords but I've loved every piece of art that has him with 2 swords. I dual wield in just about every Souls game now so Thor gets bonus points for dual wielding.

Double cool points for dual wield! I always do it in every game that gives me the opportunity too.
