If you don't like the way the official script is written (supposedly), you now can present your own. Anyone who can write lengthy, detailed script is welcomed. For those of you like me who can only put in skeleton snippet of a plot then please show your creation too.

(My itty bitty plot is still being made, so go on be the first :) )

You pay me to do it, and I'll write it.
 
So far, I actually like the current script/plot for Thor.
 
Which is what? I've pnly heard that the movie would take place on Asgard.
 
I'm actually a screenwriter and I've finished writing a treatment, but I'm thinking of scrapping and starting from scratch. What stuff/storylines would you like to see? Or to rephrase the question, what are your favorite storylines?
 
Since the post above I've been blessed in reading the 1st draft, and it covers the years before Journey Into Mystery and Don Blake VERY well, not to mention leaving Blake out entirely.
My Favorite story of Thor in the COMICS is the Eye of Odin Arc, Roy Thomas' adaptaion of the Ring of the Nieberlungs to Thor.
 
Is there a rought draft of the movie's version of Thor??
 
Thor's actually on it's THIRD rewrite.
The 1st draft was given to Marvel and they said it would have cost 300 MIL to make, and Vaughn and Protosevich were told to cut it down to 150 mil. They were working on the Script when the Writer's Strike started. They handed to Script in AFTER Marvel made the consesions.
Then Vaughn's contract of holding ended in december, and Marvel waited to see how Iron Man was going to do, and when it did GREAT, Protosevich was asked to do more changes, more than likely to INCLUDE Avengers in some way.


The First draft takes place from the most part in the Viking era and is VERY EPIC. Protosevich is a fan of Tales of Asgard, and the Script reads the same way in many ways, but includes a bit of myth in it. Blake is nowhere in the Script because the main use for Blake was to teach Thor humanity, but, since THAT happens hundreds of years BEFORE Don Blake there's no need for Blake.

Put it this way, you LOVE the movie novel when it ever comes out, it reads that well. People who have no idea about Thor and myth WILL be able to understand EVERYTHING in the Movie.
 
Thor is a young and arrogant God of the Kingdon of Asgard. Son of Odin, Thor lives on the oppulence, believing that no one can beat him. Envy, his half-brother Loki sets him up in a conspiracy with the Giants of Jountenhein to retreive the lost armor of the destructor, that converts anyone that uses it in invencible.
 
I think it's important to have Donald Blake and stick to the marvel view of things cause otherwise what makes it a superhero movie. Here's my idea

Act 1:
The movie opens with a huge battle scene. Very epic fight between the asgardians and the frost giants or goblins or whatever. After the battle asgard has a feast. Thor is an arrogant prince who behave very dishonorably to their enemies and to fellow warriors. Odin is not pleased and is very worried about his son being a just king in the future. So he decides to have his son learn humility on Earth. Must to the dismay of his current girlfriend Valkyrie (is it?) but to the pleasure of Loki, He locks away Thor's memory and attaches his soul to that of a crippled infant who had unknowingly died. So Thor grows up as Donald Blake. Odin Decreeing when he is ready the mjolnir will find him

Act 2:
At first he was an angry child, feeling as if he didn't deserve to be crippled. But thanks to a loving mother he learns how to be a good person and dedicates himself to helping others, doing charities and eventually becoming a Doctor. He falls in love with a woman (I forget her name). And at one point They both decide to visit europe (forgive me that I'm not certain what country the thor myth originally comes from).
Meanwhile Loki has been scheming to take over Asgard. And enacts his plan during Odin's sleep. His first attack is successful and he drives the Asaguards out of their kingdom and traps Odin in his sleep. but he fears Thor may return and reclaim the kingdom. So he sends monster to kill Donald Blake. Donald flees into a cave and finds his hammer and becomes Thor and defeats the monsters.

Act 3:
The Asaguards travel to Earth to get Thor to lead them. Loki sends a massive force to Earth and an epic giant battle ensues in the modern world. A battle which eventually leads back into Asaguard Where Thor defeats Loki, locks him in the room with no doors, and revives his father who decrees that Thor has learned how to be a great warrior and a just ruler and welcomes Thor back to to his home. but Thor wishes to remain on Earth for at least for the remainder of Donald Blake's life time, because he is in love with a mortal woman and feels he can do great good for the humans. Odin is disappointed, but also proud and gives his consent.

I love the story of an arrogant god learning the value of humanity. This also can really set up the Ultimates version of Thor for the Avengers, which I think is a much more interesting version for the team movie. Since Thor would not be a guy fighting petty crime in New York, but want to help people who are oppressed all over the world, not so much as hippy as the UU Thor is, but still have that conflict.

As for how I picture Thor looking, I would like the UU version with a more ancient warrior look as opposed to modern clothing. Having a beard, wearing the cape and helmet only in Act 1 and having the 616 version hammer.

That's just what I'd like to see
