Movie News/Discussion Thread

I would've thought one of the shots in that TV spot, the bit where the guy uncovers Cap's frozen shield, was going to be the very last shot of the film. Maybe after the credits. Now it's been in a TV spot, maybe there is a fair amount set in the modern day too.

I thought it would be in the introduction, and Nick Fury is basically explaining to his team about Captain America? But still would watch it, even though I haven't read any captain america comics.

Uh.

[Wedgie]

You're not Joer?

Makes more sense really.

Good poster. Not as good as the Hitler-punching one, but then, nothing ever could be.

I always thought he had a sword. Is that just me?

[Alvin Flummux]

The shield would indicate a sword, yes.

[Memento Mori]

When you're a master tactician, when you have strength and speed which is the peak of human potential, an indestructible shield and occasionally a gun, why would you need a sword?

[1cmanny1]

Because the target market would like it?

Thor 2 Set for July 2013

Given that Thor did decent business at the box office for Marvel, it’s no surprise that the company would be making its plans for a sequel. And though quiet moves have been afoot for a while now, the studio and corporate owners Disney have now made it official, booking a July 26, 2013 release date for another round of Norse play.

But while Deadline reports that Chris Hemsworth will once again be swinging Mjolnir as the central hero (not a shocker, since Marvel signs most of its cast members to multiple film deals), it would seem that Kenneth Branagh has either decided not to return or that the company has opted to go in another direction (no pun intended) for the next film. Cue a mad scramble of agents trying to get their megaphone-wielding clients the job.

Thor co-writer Don Payne has already been kicking around ideas for a second film, though no detaihas slipped out just yet. But the hero’s story continues, of course, in The Avengers, which Hemsworth is now busy shooting alongside the likes of Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo and the rest.

Because the two have gone hand in hand for millennia and the pairing has thus become ingrained in the human psyche.

I've never once pictured him with a sword.
