At 1:40 theres a voice over - That sounds an awful lot like Terence Stamp, or is it someone else?

Lock Jaw 08-10-2013 10:52 PM
Probably Malekith played by Christopher Eccleston

The Destroyer 08-11-2013 04:43 AM
No probably about it, it's definitely him. Although he's poshing it up a bit.

who/what is that

Lock Jaw 09-05-2013 08:05 PM
Malekeith (or however it is spelled), some sort of Dark Elf from some other Norse Land. The main baddie of the film.

"I'm Loki, you may have heard of m-" *SLAP*

Damn near killed a whole ice planet, tried to subjugate Earth, killed like 80-something people in two days (likely more during the New York battle), then he comes out of Asgard prison and he's like, "Hey it's my bro's girlfriend, let me introduce myself."

I love this man.

I get it, because there were elves in LotRs. Brilliant!

This movie looks great. Even with a subpar villain.

Let's discuss that.

Just got back, not bad but not the best of the Avengers films for me. Not even sure what it was really, just missed something to really grip me into the story. Might've been a bit to heavy on the physics/fantasy mumbo jumbo for my personal liking. Still, a solid "episode" to add to the series. Tom Hiddleston stole the show again.

SPOILER: show
Nice cameo from Chris Evans. I laughed every time Eccleston's Manc accent came through. Pretty boring villain I thought, love Eccleston but I just didn't care about the character at all. Sweet cliffhanger ending.


There's two post credit scenes if you hadn't already heard, rather than just the one, so stick around... Twice.

How was Mr. Eko?

Visually, of course.

The black kid said Loki.

Fucking awesome.

Krimzon7 11-09-2013 12:37 AM
malkeith was an amazing bad guy.

Fignuts 11-09-2013 01:03 AM
#1 comedy of the year.

Kalyx triaD 11-09-2013 01:17 AM
Like Avengers there's some serious lulz here.

Fignuts 11-09-2013 01:21 AM
Seriously though, this is my favorite of the solo films thus far. Love that all the supporting characters get a lot more time to shine. Especially liked Frigga's scenes.

Malekith was great. It's true he wasn't a particularly deep villain, but a complex villain isn't always needed. The movie is more about the other characters and their interactions with each other. In these cases though, the villain needs to be very intimidating, and seem very powerful. They accomplished this with malekith.

Final battle was great. One of the better superhero movie fights I'd say.

Also for Sixx:
SPOILER: show
The Collector looks and sounds like he was pulled straight out of the book and he's fucking awesome. Has me somehow even more pumped for Gaurdians of the Galaxy, which I didn't think was possible.

Even more so than Avengers tbh

Also, really want to have intercourse with Kat Dennings and Natalie Portman.

Fignuts 11-09-2013 01:37 AM
I do see what Iggy was saying about the techno babble, but its really only a couple scenes in the first part of the movie where they lay it on a little thick.

It is one of those scenes though, that is obviously like "OK audience! Pay attention because we are going to explain some shit right here.

SPOILER: show
Also, thought for sure Loki dying was going to lead to Thor battling Hela for his soul in the third movie. Still loved the twist at the end but I'm a huge Hela fan, and a small part of me wishes Loki would have stayed dead. I'm sure they could still put Hela in regardless though.

They totally got me at the end too. I thought Odin was going to banish Thor to earth like he does so often in the comics, for Thors love of Mortals and Jane foster. I was like "what? That's it? He's just going to let Thor off that easy? That conflict between them is one of the major, long running plots of the book, and they're just going to drop it like-OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH SNAP ITS LOKI"

Kalyx triaD 11-09-2013 01:38 AM
The final battle had a very fun gimmick with some cool shots.

Frank Drebin 11-09-2013 01:48 AM
Man of Steel sucked.

Fignuts 11-09-2013 01:51 AM
Anyone complaining about to much time on Earth and a lack of action in the first movie will have their thirsts amply sated here. Lots of action and a lot of it on Asgard.

Were rumors that the art direction was going to lean more towards the medieval side but if anything, it amps up the sci-fi. I have no problem with that as A.) the sci-fi element is what really distinguishes Marvel's Thor from the many other adaptations of Norse mythology out there, and B.) this movie is based on elements from Simonson's run which used the sci-fi side of Thor to great effect.

Fignuts 11-09-2013 01:53 AM
Iron Man 3, Thor 2, trailers for Winter Soldier and GOTG look fantastic.

Phase 2 is fucking awesome so far.

Fignuts 11-09-2013 01:55 AM
Should add though that my opinion might be biased, as Thor is my favorite comic, and Walt Simonson's run is my favorite from that book sooooooo your experience may be different.

Kalyx triaD 11-09-2013 04:05 AM
THE FUCKING GAUNTLET IS COMING TOGETHER PEOPLE

HE'S COMING

Fignuts 11-09-2013 04:24 AM
Wonder about that.

SPOILER: show
Seems like they are taking elements from the Infinity Gems and Cosmic Cubes and combining them into one concept.

Kalyx triaD 11-09-2013 04:52 AM

In that case you think the Teseract will be refit as a piece of the gauntlet set?

Fignuts 11-09-2013 05:37 AM
SPOILER: show
Definitely. They refer to the teaseract and the aether as Infinity Stones, and we know that GOTG plot revolves around the team carrying around a "powerful object" and running from Thanos and the collectors' forces.

All that combined with Collectors line about five more to go, and its pretty clear.

McLegend 11-09-2013 12:40 PM
Loki is awesome. Need his own movie.

Hel. Her name is fucking Hel.


As for the movie itself I loved it. This was a real showcase of Helmsworth and Hiddleston and how they can interact with characters that have grown. My only complaint, if you can call it that, is fucking Hopkins phoning it in a lot. Towards the end he gets better but the scene between him and Thor near the begining? Could he have read that line any fucking faster?

In Norse mythology yes. In Marvel, no.

Asmo 11-09-2013 09:44 PM
An average watch for me. Felt like the typical cookie cutter MCU film. Everything was so, convenient.

That being said, thoroughly enjoyed Hiddleston, and the guy who plays Heimdall. As mentioned, the action sequences, especially the ones featuring Frigga and Thor's uhh, tiff with Loki.

The cameo (not Stan Lee) was the funniest scene. Loved both the mid and post credit scenes.

Lock Jaw 11-10-2013 08:30 PM
Pretty ok flick. Initial reaction has me liking the first Thor movie better. Probably in a very slim minority about that one.

Lock Jaw 01-02-2014 07:10 PM
With the Blu-Ray release of Thor: The Dark World on February 25, will come the latest Marvel One-Shot, which will be entitled "All Hail the King"

Kalyx triaD 01-02-2014 08:27 PM
Bear in mind Ben Kingsley recently did a One-Shot, so I don't think this is a Loki thing like people think.
