What does a king or a ruler do on a throne like that? There's no computer terminal, no desk for your papers. Maybe he has an iPad. Ok, seems like if you are king, you can have people do things for you, so why sit around on an isolated chair?

Lot of good buzz about the trailer at comic con. Can't wait for it to be released online.

Yeah. I have to admit...Hemsworth looks good in the pic with Mjolnir, the throne is beautiful (and so Walt Simonson), and the Destroyer looks great. I'm extremely intrigued by this film now.

I've been questioning Hemsworth acting ability (he was fine in ST, but carrying a 2 hour movie as the Norse God of Thunder is a different task) wrt the Avengers, but the trailer comments have been very positive for him. He certainly has a physical presence, based on the Avengers Cast shot from SDCC. I failed to observe that Branagh is an exceptional director of actors, so he should be fine (Whedon is good as well). If nothing else, I am super-excited for The Art of Thor (book) next summer :)

Follow the link if you want to see the 5-minute preview they showed at Comic-con. It's surprisingly polished too, nothing looked unfinished though I'm sure some of it was.

I'm not sure how "official" this is, meaning it could be taken down so click faster.

Links are popping up and going down everywhere. I managed to snag a copy before it was removed. All I can say is that it looks AWESOME!


Edit: Watch it while you can...

Checked it out by clicking at the last "reference" on the wiki page. Worked out. Decent footage. I was hoping for more, but was relatively pleased with what I saw. Not too hard to figure out the arcs and the story, but I am still looking forward to this one. Thanks for the help!

I wasn't interested at all until I saw that trailer. Kenneth Branagh was a left field choice to direct, but it appears to have paid off. Clearly, Clark Gregg is the real star of this picture as Agent Coulson.

Trailer goes on for too long, it shows too much. I feel like I've seen the film already.


Not so enthused now after that preview, it'll look great but I get that 'seen it all before' vibe. What else is out next year?

It's not an official trailer. It was meant for the Comic Con crowd. It's obviously a work in progress but I'm still stoked about the movie.
