Just looks hokey to me. I have not read all of Thor, but speaking from a strictly visual sense I'm not feeling it

Kalyx triaD 07-15-2010 04:45 AM

I dig it. Could be worse.

No. Come on dude. There are more than 2 options. This movie could be bomb deluise. Who knows? I'm just saying that I'm not digging the look. Just like I wasn't when the first pics of Thor came out.
I feel the same about the Spidey and X-Men reboots, but I'm also not a huge pessimist because I look forward to and praise plenty of "Marvel news" that comes out. Not trying to hate here. I feel like most negative reaction in comic threads is taboo.

Lock Jaw 07-15-2010 02:06 PM

I wanted the horns at least in some fashion.

Fignuts 07-15-2010 06:11 PM

Probably will still get them. Thor's helmet is in and we havn't seen it yet. Possibly the same deal with Loki.

parkmania 07-15-2010 08:48 PM

Apparently Mark Ruffalo is close to being named the new Hulk.

I'm not coming down on you, it's just that the actual iconic look would be pretty ridic in real life. Marvel's been trying not to stray too far from the source material. There's really not a whole lot more that could be done, short of making them look like actual vikings, which would piss off comic nerds everywhere and probably not translate well on film, leaving casual audiences uninterested.

Jeritron 07-16-2010 01:56 AM

Fair enough. I guess I would be more fond of something a bit more medieval and rustic. It's all a bit too futuristic and Ultimates to me.

Funky Fly 07-16-2010 02:03 AM

Seriously, if some fruitcup in green and gold pyjamas with a prissy accent was threatening the world with mass chaos, most people would laugh.

Jeritron 07-16-2010 02:05 AM

I think the thing I miss most from Thor's costume is the helmet

"There's gonna be a new one," Cage told Ferguson after the host presented him with a model of a flaming skull, "I just made the deal today."

Heat Vision reports that Jennifer Lawrence (Winter's Bone) will play Mystique in 20th Century Fox's X-Men: First Class, and Variety has confirmed that Kevin Bacon has signed to play the villain, though which character is still under wraps.

Loki's horn's are there. (Left)

Lock Jaw 07-19-2010 02:24 PM

Woo for horns.

McLegend 07-19-2010 05:41 PM

Reminds me of Masters of The Universe

Rammsteinmad 07-19-2010 05:59 PM

That's a pretty epic picture.

Kalyx triaD 07-19-2010 09:14 PM

And a huge fucking set.

Reavant 07-19-2010 10:10 PM

awesome!

Rammsteinmad 07-20-2010 07:02 AM

Lol I remember when people thought Triple H was gonna play Thor. :lol:

Funky Fly 07-20-2010 07:30 AM

"Loki-uhhh, thy time is at an end-uhhh! Prepare thyself-uhhh, for tonight-uhhh Thor smites thee for the final time-uhhh!"

Wasn't gonna happen.

"Art thou ready? I sayeth unto thee: art thou ready?"

Definitely built like a Norse God.

DaBrasko 07-21-2010 02:38 AM

Yeah I retract any statements I made about this guy not being big enough to play Thor.

Skippord 07-21-2010 07:26 AM

he's on the juice

DaBrasko 07-21-2010 01:01 PM

No doubt!

Joss Speaks About Avengers:

Quote:

I'm still writing the outline. I am at the stage where I am reworking and reworking. What I love about this is that there is no way that these people should be in the same room together, let alone the same team. And that, to me, is the definition of family.
He gets it.

Kalyx triaD 07-22-2010 09:32 PM

Jennifer Lawrence talks about being the new Mystique:

“When I got the part I dedicated a whole day to watching all three movies, and I really liked them. I was still a little worried, because I didn’t really understand the whole mutant thing. But the script cleared some of my questions up, and knowing that James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender were already on board gave me confidence.”

She had meetings with Vaughn and Co. in London this week. Today, it”s “I have to do 12 hours of prosthetics. Oh man.

“I have to take Mystique back to the beginning, before she became who we saw later. I don’t know exactly what I can talk about, but this is going to be fun.”

She says the prep work is physical, which knowing Mystique’s image, we can believe. Gym time. How does she look in blue?

“NOBODY looks good blue. Well, maybe Zoe Saldana. I am very curious to see how I’m going to come off in that suit.”

Fignuts 07-22-2010 11:16 PM

Honestly have no interest whatsoever in the new x-men movie.

Funky Fly 07-23-2010 04:31 AM

When does Fox lose the license?

Kalyx triaD 07-23-2010 04:41 AM

After their first bomb. X-movies print money.

Funky Fly 07-23-2010 04:52 AM

Is that the actual agreement? Sounds fucked up. Figured it would be "X amount of films or Y point in time, whichever happens first"

Kalyx triaD 07-23-2010 04:59 AM

It's been over a decade, man.

Funky Fly 07-23-2010 05:02 AM

Well, if they were licensed for say 10 films, it would take over a decade to put them all out.

Kalyx triaD 07-23-2010 05:10 AM

I was hoping the franchise would switch hands after X3 (as much as I love Hugh, Patrick, and Ian). Along with Spidey after Spidey 3 so they could be included in Marvel Films grander plans.

Neither happened.

Funky Fly 07-23-2010 05:53 AM

I mean, you'd figure they'd want to use the New Avengers somewhere down the line (3rd or 4th Avengers movie, maybe?), which means they'd need Spider-Man and Wolverine free to join the team.
