@Sean

Im not understanding your logic. Just becasue they haven’t been they cant be?

In theory the Marvel movies go back a way long time. So Dr. Strange has had a movie (Mystic), Blade, (Mystic/Occult), X-Men (Mutants), Spider-Man (Genetic), Hulk (Lab created), etc.

All were made without anything “like it” mentioned before. So to have a real life “God” (A belief of many) show up in a universe that is modeled on Real Life does not seem far fetched. Even if there has been no mention before.

[...] a few days ago Screen Rant posted some updates regarding Thor discussing another addition to the film’s stellar cast and some confusion of how the movie will follow the comics, or even which version of Marvel’s [...]

To Blake or not to Blake?

Well, in my view they already cast Portman as Foster; there has to be some goings on on planet Earth; I was starting to even think that Thor would find and lead other Midguard warriors who had been banished/punished to Earth…but I’m not sure exactly what will transpire. That. Midguard strife, or the Donald Blake story. Know what? I don’t care.

That’s right.
I don’t care.
Not one iota.

See—- I like it this way. I don’t WANT TO KNOW. The more questions and possibilities, the more I’m interested. The filmmakers should see all this is a gold and just keep the lips zipped. Let folks guess where things are going, right up to the month or so before release. It has my interest NOW. Don’t spoil the soup, if y’know what I mean.

BTW, it could have a little Ultimates in there as well, Marvel seems to be on that lame kick.

its a fact; marvel movies twist and turn what’s in the comics so that they can shove it down our throats in the cinemas.
i just hope its as hardcore as hulk and as visually good as ironman (and hulk)

Im not just a comic book movie fan, I have loved Mavel since I can remember but out of all the upcoming and potential Marvel films, i am leased excited about Thor. I mean I like the character and all and i will def see this movie, but I never thought that he fit all that well in the marvel universe and I really dont care about this project.

Just for perspective: I think Cyclops and Captain America are the biggest douches in the Marvel universe but I even like them better than Thor

is anyone the same?

They’re obviously leaning towards Ultimate Thor. I like that…
I love both versions, but Ultimate Thor works more for a movie adaptation.

@Luke and Leia’s Love Child

I agree that it could be a well mixed combination of both the Ultimate and 616 universes. Mrs. Portman could still be a love interested nurse to a man whom she maybe tending too who calls himself Thor similar to the Ultimate Thor but with Janew Foster role slightly different.

If Blake is not in it, then Thor may be presented in a similar fashion to Ultimate Thor, where he claims he’s a god, but his teammates don’t belive it until Asgardians actually show up on earth.

@Manowar
My problem is that by the time that Thor shows up, we will have had three movies that do nothing to even hint at aliens or supernatural beings in that universe. With Superman, aliens are established immediately with Superman. With Silver Surfer, he shows up in the second movie, so he could easily be introduced without problem.

So both of them are easier to accept in their movies. And I am not saying that I won’t like or enjoy Thor, just concerned on how they work it in to the established universe without making it feel forced.

@ Sean

Did you have any problems with Silver Surfer in the FF movie or any Superman movies?
If not, then think of Thor in the same way. Just an Alien with super powers.

@ M-Cat,

Speaking of which, where did you get that info from for your comment in the other thread about this?

Having Thor at all is completely opposite of the world Iron Man, the Hulk, and Captain America live in.

All of those characters gained their powers through the use of technology. It might be technology that could never exist in our universe, but it is technology none the less.

Thor is completely different, as he is supernatural in his origin. Not being someone who reads comic books (but who love comic book movies), I have had a problem with adjusting to the idea of Thor in the Iron Man/Hulk universe that they have created in those movies.

Yeah I heard Donald Blake will not be in it at all. I think this is the better way to go because having Thor “transform” between human and a god-like being would be total opposite of the world Iron Man lives in.

There are Thor stories that don’t involve Donald Blake but that do take place on Earth, at least, that’s what I’m told (I only read Thor for a little while). Ultimate Thor is one of them apparently. But in my ignorance, I have to say I also don’t completely buy the idea that Blake won’t be in the film. AICN have been wrong many times before (or, at least, their sources have been).
