Age of Ultron Ultron! We Would Have Words With Thee! Official Thor/Chris Hemworth Thread

[Ghostcrow13]

I don't know why you felt that way before TA, he was barely in the trailers at all.

In it as much as he has been for AoU so far, and if I remember there were shots of him landing on the quinjet, calling lightning down, lightning on the chrysler building. For me when I saw that in the trailer I thought that was just a glimpse of his awesome moments.

It turned out that chrysler building shot was his best moment, landing on a quinjet was probably the best Avenger entrance and it was spoiled by the trailer. Calling lightning down was just to attack Iron Man which then powered him up.

The only thing not in there was the Hulk uppercut.

 

[BigThor]

You're right he was I went and re-watched them, well atleast he's number 2 on the billing list this time.

 

[Mjölnir]

You know, the only thing that I really regret is that we couldn't switch Iron Man with Thor when it comes to having a fight with Hulk in AOU?

Not only is the setting much more better to look at, but it seems as though they have a better budget and that Whedon has gotten much better at staging big action sequences.

It sucks that Hulk's only fight with Thor had to take place where Thor couldn't use his lighting strikes or really cut loose on Hulk.

Thor doesn't tend to use his lightning and such against Hulk in the comics either, for some reason. I guess having him just brawl with Hulk makes it more plausible that Hulk can keep up with him. In the last fight of theirs I remember I guess Thor did charge up his hammer with lightning though, and hit Hulk so hard he went into space (although dragged down to Earth again by gravity).

I agree that it will of course have been cooler to have them fight in the open like the IM vs Hulk thing is, but it would also have been even cooler if it took place in Infinity War with the advancements that will have been made until then.

It sounds like we do get to see a fight between Thor and Vision though, and while that's much less iconic it might actually be a more interesting fight where Thor is more likely to use his powers. As long as Thor gets to shine I'm fine with whomever he will be fighting.

I just hope we don't see Thor swept aside without effort like some ones bi*** by Ulton and then show Hulk giving him a extended fight..
Lets be honest here...Thor will be the one opponent that Ultron will not have extensive knowledge of or his full capabilities...
Asagardians should still be a major mystery to the Powers that be on earth...

 

[BigThor]

A fight between Thor and Vision sounds infinitely cooler than Thor vs Hulk. As stated earlier Thor usually resorts to "brawling" when facing the Hulk. However against Vision he'll most likely use more of his powers.

I'm interested in seeing how Thor is gonna handle Vision's intangibility above all else.

With all the bits of animosity shown in the trailer(i.e choking, yelling at stark) the mention of him leaving in the farm scene, and Hemsworth's comments about Thor having a different perspective and Ultron kind of trying to sway Thor over to his point of view, not to mention the mind-control we already know is a part of the story...

Am I the only one thinking all of the Avengers may have to fight our boy Goldilocks??

 

[Ghostcrow13]

Nah I think the only fight Avenger v Avenger will be Hulk Hulkbuster, the rest of the 'fighting' will just be arguments and maybe shows of strength and stuff, ie ego tripping

 

[LowlifeZar]

The Ultron swaying Thor is kind of cool to me. Its like he's saying if you can't beat him, ask him to join. I wonder how the Thor v Vision fight will play out. I believe it will play out sort of like Iron Man v Thor did, except with more variety in power showings. Hopefully it will be longer as well.

I wish it was so because Thor is the most interesting one to turn against the others, but I don't think it will happen.

 

[warriorking]

The Thor vs Vision fight will be cool, however we need Thor to eventually come out on top.. wether it be from a delaying action to keep Thor from his task or in full retreat because he can't win....
Thor is a power house as well as a seasoned warrior .
Ulton should be the only opponent that Thor faces in AOU that requires a team effort in order to defeat...

 

[Loki882]

Thor didn't use lightning against Hulk because:

1. It could very well have brought down the Hellicarrier and killed everyone onboard. Or at least fried everyone in the immediate vicinity.

2. He wasn't really TRYING to fight Hulk per se. He was trying to restrain him and calm him down, hence his "I am not your enemy Banner" line.

 

[Ghostcrow13]

I bet many bucks that Vision beats Thor.

 

[Ragnaroknroll]

I bet many bucks that Vision beats Thor.

 

[warriorking]

I bet many bucks that Vision beats Thor.

So basically Thor is relegated to everyone's punching bag....
I don't see Whedon allowing that to happen...
Whats the point in having Thor at all if anyone with the least bit of skills can defeat him...
If that were the case Midgard would have perished a long time ago....
Thor has been defending the nine realms including Midgard long before any of the current groups parents or parents, parents were born...
And lets not forget no one in the 9 Realms including Midgard would be around anyway had Thor not Destroyed Malekith ...
So everyones very existence is due to Thor's steadfast resolve and sacrifice....

 

[Ghostcrow13]

I agree, well apart from Vision having the least bit of skills, Vision should challenge Thor.
But I doubt they'll want to introduce this new character that Ultron created to be the ultimate machine and 'Vision' only for him to get defeated by Thor, and then Vision joins the Avengers when he knows he is already more useless than one of them.


I think either Vision wins, or it's a draw

edit- useless being the wrong word, but you know what i mean, he will be obviously weaker.

 

[Vartha]

....I'm trying to recall what happened in the books when it came to Thor and Vision.

 

[Ghostcrow13]

 

[Vartha]

Thanks Ghost! For some reason I thought it was different, and Thor had a hard time connecting because Vision was always phased

Just my two cents worth....

Man I agree. I don't think Whedon will let this happen. Joss did a superlative job of giving Thor his due without allowing golden boy Iron Man to flat out lose to him. Surely he'll figure out a way. IMO Thor was in all of the best action sequences in the Avengers. But for Age of Ultron Thor needs to clearly and unequivocally be victorious over his foes. People need to understand the depth of his power so when he does get taken down - it means the threat is truly serious (ie. s$#! just got real).

I want to see more of this:

And less of this:

 

[Ragnaroknroll]

Vision is a worthy foe no doubt but come on Thor is no pushover. He has over a millennium of battle experience.

and Lightning lol

 

[Ghostcrow13]

Well in classic Mjolnir style, he could actually stop people becoming intangible, so I've not seen Vision pose much threat in the comics, could be wrong obviously not read them all

In the movies though I doubt Thor will have this power, because so far we've only seen Mjolnir do lightning. So Visions phasing I'm sure will cause a problem. I can see him badly hurting Thor by putting his hand through him, but not killing him like it would others

 

[LowlifeZar]

If Vision ends up beating Thor somehow, then what would be the point of Thor being in the group? Lol. Im all for a back and forth scrap but i just hope its a tie or there is some halt to the battle.

Yeah Thor can probably easily beat Vision in the film, tho I can hear him referencing Loki's doubles when he can't physically stop Vision lol

lol Doubt Vision will win the "war" so to speak, MAYBE round one then looses to Thor in round two. lol
