Ayyy
God, hopefully we'll get a proper representation of Thor. Give him the helmet!
>>82734014
Earth stuff is what ruined the Thor movies for me. I enjoyed pretty much everything that was set on Asgard.
If this movie really takes place in the cosmos 90% of the time, then I'm pretty excited.
Aaah, I like Portman as Foster.
>>82734014
MCu Thor has been quite nice so far. Darkworld was very enjoyable.
NOOOOOOOOOO
They are only true couple in the MCU
What's with all their girlfriends constantly leaving them after every movie? Why even bother with the love interests anymore when none of the actresses are willing to return for sequels?
>>82734078
Oh Jesus, such awful taste
>>82733989
Unless thor is surrounded by other avengers its unlikely that this movie will be good.

Why isn't anyone talking about this?
I know it's going to invite console wars but I'm glad to see Marvel can learn from their mistakes.
I'm intrigued by the weird director choice.
>>82734144
Portman did 2 and that was enough.
>>82734328
More like it was 2 many.
>>82734144
Why not address this question to literally every James Bond movie ever?
It's just a matter of retaining the same actors to play non-starring roles for movie after movie. It's hard to get major actors to commit their time and effort to spend ten minutes on-screen when instead they could be working on a project that they're starring in.
>>82734226
I understand that Hulk will be playing a big part in this one. That's got to count, right?
Based Shogun Waititi.
>>82734226
Hulk is confirmed to be in.
>>82733989
Well on the one hand it's nice to see a Thor movie have a more cosmic feel to it, but it does seem a bit of a pity that she won't return for the completion of the Trilogy.
>>82734444
>Planet Hulk
I can dream.
>>82734255
>Why isn't anyone talking about this?
Because we haven't seen anything of it yet? And most people have given up on Thor.
>>82734056
>Give him the helmet!
I doubt we'll get it. The whole point of why we only saw it once was because they couldn't make one that would stay on Hemsworth's head. It's why they abandoned it altogether since the first movie.
>>82733989
Good. She brings nothing to the table.

None. A joke kid's character like him doesn't really fit the tone of the MCU. Unless they changed nearly everything about him.
>>82733989
Thor movies have been fucking boring.
>>82734676
Probably because she's a nerd who graduated from Harvard and neither of the schools at that game?
>>82734690
What? For one, how is he a "joke kid's character"? His backstory is fucking tragic and is plenty serious. What about him would need changed?
>Thor is feeling sad because cunt-face told him she saw him destroy a whole city and she couldn't handle being so close to something so powerful and capable of so much destruction.
>Thor goes to get the biggest monster he knows and Hulk/Banner helps him cope with his duty as a God/King.
>Thor helps Hulk/Banner accept each other and we get a sligthly smarter and more in control Hulk
>Thanos breaks Asgard in the final 5 minutes of the movie after they've saved it, showing what a monster really is.
There you go, destruction is the theme of the movie. Some better writer than me turn it into a properly written light-hearted but bitter-sweet movie where it turns real south at the last moment and ends on a dark chapter preparing for IW.
>>82734749
Then why even bother going?
>>82734753

Yes it does. As soon as you get money, people fall over themselves to be your friend. That's social skills.
>>82734838
Oh, honey.
You should've gone to a proper college.
>>82734794
>HE HAS A HORSE FACE.
He has a monstorous face that's kind of horse-shaped, but it's not a horse face. The Kymellians have horse faces. Bill's face is just kind of elongated.
>YELLOW PERIL.
Yellow Peril is a reference to Asian fear mongering and racist stereotypes of the 50s. It doesn't mean "you can't have people with yellow skin in movies."
>TOO GOOFY.
What's goofy about him? Like I said, his backstory is extremely tragic. There really isn't anything goofy about him. His origin was the most serious Thor arc ever up to that point.
>ELIZABETH OLSEN CAN'T WEAR A CAPE AND CROWN.
What? Bill's outfit is just a more cosmic looking variant of Thor's. I don't see what your point is.
>TOO GOOFY.
See: Last time you said this.

>still doesn't realize that another Hulk solo movie will literally never happen
Any chance of a new Hulk movie went out the window when Disney bought Marvel.
>>82734934
It's a joke. With the world that Marvel is building, where Howard the Duck exists, there is no real reason for BRB to not exist and be kicking ass, but it would be too "comic booky" for audiences. I'm assuming that's the same reason Elizabeth Olsen doesn't want to wear the crown and cape.
>>82734973
I heard this before. But why? Is that another of those bullshit licensing issues?
>>82734939
What is Will Smith doing with that shield
>>82735011

>>82735011

Right, because a Rocket Raccoon totally isn't a thing.
>>82733989
I'm pissed solely on the basis that he went through hell to get back together with her. And then they drop it just like that? Good grief.They should have kept her on andfridged the fuck out of her in the first scene.
Also casting a all-new all-different love interest instead of using Sif is a knife in the back.
>>82734594
>Thor movie with different planets (also outside of the 9 realms)
>There's apparently some Planet Hulk stuff in

>SS was replaced by Bill in the animated movie
It's possible
>>82735032
Universal has the distribution rights for all Hulk solo films.
>>82734942
Second.
>>82734965
>they do it with the new love interest instead
>co/ now has to deal with a black female Thor
>>82734690
he fits the tone of the cosmic stuff pretty well so far, as the cosmic stuff seems to be brightly colored space adventure and gleaming camp space vikings. In fact, it will be fucking delightful when the serious geopolitic avengers has to deal with the fact that the rest of the cosmos seems to be a pretty absurd, silly place.
>>82734753

It's like he was literally made by an asshole 12 year old. He's a joke.
>>82735011
I don't understand why people don't line a superhero movie if it's TOO "comic booky" why fucking bother to go see a movie or like a character if you clearly hate the source material
>>82735215
I thought it was Sif and they just recast her
>>82734594
>>82734690
>>82735229
Bill's not happening because they pawned off his niche to Hulk instead. Simple as that.
>>82734151
There is nothing wrong with the Thor movies. First one can be a bit of a bore and that's it. even then it had its moment.
Second movie is great and does an amazing job at depicting Loki and thor's relationship.
>>82735132
Technically trans-Thor was a thing already.
>>82735384
Jaime Alexander's done fucking Agents of Shield episodes. She's not exactly clawing for an out.
>>82735078
>I thought it was because she didn't have the body for it
No. She's openly stated that she just doesn't like the leotard and the tiara. I think the leotard because of some sexualization thing (which I'm I'm close to calling bullshit about considering her costumes so far), and the tiara because she thought it was silly (which I agree on. It would not look good in real life).
>>82735369
Because there's still a sense of shame in going to see men and women parading around in tights that modern audience still haven't gotten over. Theoretically, say that the MMPR movie becomes huge and American Toku becomes as big an industry as comic book movies. Even as edgy and adult and cool as they try to make it, it will never escape the shadow of being something originally for outcasts to like. That's why people say "I'm a nerd" instead of "Comic books are for socially adjusted people at all level of society"

>>82735410
I don't disagree. They're my favourite subfranchise of the MCU.
However having since read the comics I can totally see how they'd be considered sacrilege. I got talking to my bro about Volstagg the other day and suddenly realized that he's had like one line and 5 minutes of screentime combined compared to some 20 minutes of the OC sidekick's OC sidekick's OC sidekick. EC3 lookin' mutherfuckuh.
>>82735477
Scarlet Witch's entire outfit would stick out in the MCU like a sore thumb.
I'm glad they went for the more elegant design.

There go my sides.
>>82735642
Because without his established storytelling role it wouldn't be much of a Bill and is just going to leave you with blue balls. So he shows up for a 10 minute arena fight that any generic alien hoss could be used for; would you genuinely be happy with that? Because that's the extent of what you'd get. They saw that Thor has a beefy wingman in his cosmic stories and saw fit to use some contract dates for an existing normie-beloved character that fit the archetype instead of introducing a brand new literally who.
>>82735315

It only took them what 2 shitty movies?
I want Hulk and Thor road trip buddies over the 9 realms. And Loki just show up in the end to die for ever.
>>82736200
Because none of the Hulk movies have been particularly successful (both got below $300million worldwide), not enough to justify the collaboration
>>82736279
Yea, thats pretty fair. Would you want to make a movie that is a gamble that you also have to share the profits with someone else?

Using the term "kino" at all is indicative of being from /tv/, no one else uses that word (except reddit).
>>82733989

>>82736592
I tought it was the Russos who fought for Giant Man and Feige didint wat to because it was to comicy.
>>82736592
Giant Man's an original Lee/Kirby concept and Lang's still on his first film of what will probably turn into a trilogy. There were reasons to adapt him besides "look how silly fun times it is!".
The Thor franchise's on its way out and what little narrative role they could have justified for his horsefaced sidekick is being filled by a character they already know is popular and already have a contracted actor for.
The dream is dead. It was likely never alive to begin with. I advise you let it go now before it becomes more painful to accept.

>>82737547
Who is this semen spectre.
To be honest, I'm, disappointed as I really want to see Fem!Thor in the MCU, partly due to the lack of female heroes, partly because I want to see what they do with the design, but mostly since it means getting to see Chris Hemsworth with his shirt off and a badass metal arm.

I wish they went for the most recent design from her solo book, the book is shit but the design is great. Her MCU design isn't bad for dress down I guess but it's pretty boring which doesn't really go with Wanda's personality.
What they did just feels lazy to be honest. If they'd have actually made her Roma they could have had some fun with her design too, given her a gelbi head-dress or something.
>>82737819
