The Avengers "Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be Hemsworthy, shall possess the power of Thor" - Part 1

[steintym]

Woah, cool stuff!

Spoiler city ...

Not complaining, btw, just eating it all up!

He sure did, my bad I was thinking about Thor powering down Iron Man's suit during the first episode of the Ultron arch.



True, I do want to see Thor pull off much bigger feats at some point in the film but that feat does give me hope that his super strength is definately going to be shown.

Yeah, it's a cool preview of what's to come. t:

Another cool thing is the black clouds churning over the Quinjet as lightning surges through them, while the rest of the sky is clear. I can only imagine how ominous that moment's going to be when the thunder causes the Quinjet to rattle, making the theater seats vibrate from the sound. Another nice touch was Loki being nervous, knowing that the storm was his brother's doing.
If I recall, the storybook said that a huge lightning bolt struck the Quinjet and Thor landed on top of it. Thor sure knows how to make one hell of an entrance.

Another good music video that I found regarding Thor:

I agree that's very cool indeed, I really love when they play up Thor's connection with the weather.

This video is pretty awesome, I love the way it's centered on Thor & Loki and the song really goes well with the footage.

Totally badass.

Outstanding pic. I'm so happy with the way Marvel Studios have portrayed Thor so far. His solo movie was great and it looks like the Avengers will just continue along that line. They could have easily have gotten him wrong like WB/DC did with Green Lantern. Or Fox with DD, etc. In my opinion MS has nailed all of their characters so far.

Agreed, and made them all appealing and interesting in their individual ways.

I'm hoping that Thor's heroics on Earth in this film will gain him recognition by the people of Earth and that he's welcomed in as another hero of Earth by civilians like how it is in the comics.

So far, most of the public is unaware of Thor's existence in the MCU.

 

[Shadowlord X]

Yeah, hadn't thought of that. It would be nice indeed.

I'm hoping at the end of THOR 2 that he chooses to stay on Midgard and in later films it's briefly discussed what the presence of an authentic mythological god hero has on various sectors of Earth's populace.

So,what do you guys think about seeing "King Thor" on the big screen in the near future?

If Hemsworth would return for Thor 4, I think perhaps we can get an older look from him, but for the trilogy I want him to maintain his youth appearance. Hemsworth already grew some beard for Thor and TA but this pic makes Thor looks like a mountain man or something.

 

[BigThor]

Yeah I think THOR IV would be the best time for King Thor if Hemsworth is up for it, so he could spend an entire film being the ruler of Asgard and getting a few chances to show off his new powers.

Gonna go out on a limb here and say Hemsworth does not end up in a fourth Thor movie ..... even though he's by far and away my favorite of the Marvel bunch.

 

[Lady Marion]

So the coronation was canceled in the first movie so I hope we see him as King in the third movie as sort of happy end.

Yeah, I also think it would be difficult for Hemsworth to return for Thor IV, simply because when you add the trilogy for Thor and TA, he will be playing the Norse god for four movies, and I can see him having the ambition to become an actor in Hollywood that has more diversity beyond Thor. He is already doing so many things even after TA, while committed to Thor 2.

The problem I see with Thor IV as King Thor would be that he cannot just pass the torch to the Son of Thor or anything like that, because Thor *is* the franchise. Once Hemsworth decides to hang up his Mjolnir Marvel will have to start contemplating rebooting the series, but not anytime soon.

Yeah I was just doing a bit of "reaching" because I love Hemsworth's portrayal of Thor so much, I could still see him becoming King Thor in the 3rd act of THOR III after Odin perishes in a battle with Surtur.

Apparently, it wasn't just coincidence that Hemsworth was in a Joss Whedon film after working with him once before.

This would be more notable if he weren't already doing that. He's in 3 films outside of Avengers this year alone:

Cabin in the Woods
Red Dawn
Snow White and the Huntsman

Granted, two of those were left over from MGM going under and got delayed, but still.

 

[BigThor]

^ Awesome info PP, that was a very cool thing for Joss to do on Hemsworth's behalf.
