You know what? That looks a lot better than I was expecting.

Haha, I like "And 2D in select theaters". Really?

I dont think it looks very promising sadly. I prefer medieval viking thunder god Thor. This looks goofy.

I dont specifically recall the avengers Thor, and I guess it depends on when you're talking, but Thor used to speak in "thee"'s and "thou"'s.

Sort of like an English knight or Shakespearean for lack of a better term. Yeah that doesn't make much sense either since he's a nordic god but this Thor appears to be more of the regular modern day American english variety. Which i know the comics transitioned into, but I prefer ye olde Thor.

The pictures I have seen of this movie (specifically recalling a picture with Thor, Odin and Loki) gave me instant flashbacks to the 80's Flash Gorden and all that was hokey.

I wouldn't have high hopes for this movie.

So, you want a Norse viking-god speaking in over-the-top faux-Shakespearian English, and yet this movie version looks "goofy" to you?

The old pictures are why I linked to the ORIGINAL Thor topic in this very forum.

I don't know if people don't check my links assuming I'm going to rick roll them or if angry cat scared everyone off.

Overall, I am optimistic.

Yes. I want a Norse Viking God. Thor is a Norse Viking God.

I mean jeez he even fights a robot

and it has a generic rock music sound track.

Thor speaks like Thor. Dashel is confusing Thor with the Marvel version of Hercules, when it comes to manner of speech.

Robot? A robot? That's the mother **** Destroyer.

This is what made him interesting. He felt and acted like a god, not a mortal. I enjoyed the interaction that allowed.

Thorlief Golmen was a psychiatric nurse, until he suffered a mental breakdown, and was himself institutionalized for 18 months. The breakdown was a result of him realising that he was the god Thor, sent into the world by his father, Odin, to save it from apathy and self-destruction. He devoted himself to environmentalist causes, and opposing American imperial ambitions, and developed quite a following thanks to his speeches and self-help books.

Nick Fury: "Sweet mother of god ! I thought this guy was supposed to be a pacifist, man."
Thor: "A pacifist with a big, scary hammer, General."

I will admit to not having read a single Ultimate comic since Mark Millar stopped writing them. So, I am unfamiliar with the butchering that happened afterwards.
