azrael Posted July 15, 2012 Author Posted July 15, 2012 it says... Nov 8. I blame EXO for me typing too fast and mixing things up. Quote
GMANIFESS Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 So many storylines to choose from... I wonder if Beta Ray Bill will show up. Quote
Dynaman Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Knock, Knock. Hollywood, excuse me but, can we have a NON superhero movie please... Quote

TehPW Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 it makes money... and as long as Stan the Man stays with us for cameo's, please more. Battletech as something other than video games remains a pipe dream for me (ive already consider Macross anything, impossible as long as Harmony Gold exists) Not a very imagivative line of titles though... pretty sure it'll change during production... but why a money sink in November? and only 15-16 months away? im sure it'll be pushed to 2014 Spring...

Battletech? Everyone knows robotjox was the most awesome live action real robot movie ever made. No one needs another (sarcasm warning) Anyway, I for one actually enjoyed Thor. Though I didn't really know much about the character before the movie, it succeeded as a fun popcorn flick and I wouldn't mind another. Ant man on the other hand.... Quote
Max Jenius Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 I just hope it's a little shorter than Thor. I enjoyed the movie, but toward the end I was like "ok, let's wrap this up!" Quote
Omegablue Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 Come to think of it, I haven't even watched Avengers yet. Not missing much. Bad guy appears. Good guys become super best friends. City saved from alien invasion and nuclear bomb. The end. Quote
azrael Posted August 2, 2012 Author Posted August 2, 2012 So the 9th Doctor has been cast to play our villain. We Have A ‘Thor 2′ Villain: Christopher Eccleston To Play Malekith The Accursed (Deadline) My Thor-comics knowledge is quite sparse so someone will have to fill in the rest. Quote
Omegablue Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 From Wiki Malekith struck an alliance with Loki on behalf of the fire demon Surtur. He took control of a number of Earth humans using special food of the faerie provided by Hela. Malekith then killed Eric Willis, guardian of the Casket of Ancient Winters, after learning its location. As Master of the Hounds, Malekith hunted down Roger Willis, Eric's son and new guardian of the Casket. Malekith battled Thor, and kidnapped Lorelei. Using Lorelei as bait, Malekith forced Thor to battle Algrim the Strong, one of his Dark Elf followers, then attempted to destroy both combatants by plunging them into a pool of magma. He then captured the Casket of Ancient Winters from Roger Willis. Malekith was ultimately defeated by Thor, but not before he destroyed the Casket of Ancient Winters, releasing magical frigid force all over the Earth. Malekith was then brought as a captive by Thor to Asgard. Malekith later disguised Loki as himself to take his place in the dungeon, while he disguised himself as Balder, who was about to be crowned ruler of Asgard. Kurse, the being formerly known as Algrim, saw through Malekith's disguise when he reached Asgard City. Kurse then broke Malekith's neck, apparently slaying him. Years later, Malekith was revealed to be alive once again. Disguising himself as Balder again, he enlisted Hercules to attack Alflyse, the Dark Elf Queen of the Eastern Spires, while disguised as Thor. His scheme unravels (partially due to the appearance of Thor disguised as Hercules), and he is easily defeated by Zeus. Malekith struck an alliance with Loki on behalf of the fire demon Surtur.

Mr March Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 I was a huge Thor fan as a kid and even though I was late to the game, I did read all of Walter Simonson's run on the comic from the 1980s. Malekith was actually one of the more successful villains in the Thor comics. He was in league with the fire giant Surtur and acting as an agent on his behalf, Malekith's actions enabled Surtur to invade Asgard. Casting Eccleston in anything is a smart move. Anyone who has seen him in the Danny Boyle films knows he's a solid actor. Upon hearing Eccleston is cast, I must admit I can easily relax after the loss of Mads Mikkelsen from this Thor sequel. Things are looking good so far! Quote
azrael Posted August 22, 2012 Author Posted August 22, 2012 ‘2 Broke Girls’ Kat Dennings Back In ‘Thor 2’ So yes...there will be comic relief, again. Quote
Mr March Posted August 22, 2012 Posted August 22, 2012 Kat Dennings did make the most of a small part in the first film. If she can do the same here, it'll be fun. Quote
azrael Posted August 23, 2012 Author Posted August 23, 2012 Mr. Eko will be joining this flick. Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje Joins THOR THE DARK WORLD As Dual Villain Kurse/Algrim Quote

Fortress_Maximus Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 Can anyone confirm the original cast all signed up? Thxs. Quote
Fly4victory Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 the rest of the world What is this other world of rest you refer to? Quote
Dynaman Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 What is this other world of rest you refer to? Those who are not super hero comics fans. Quote
areaseven Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 New poster is out. I'm hoping this sequel delivers, especially after Jaimie Alexander literally put her back on it. Quote
miles316 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 New poster is out. thor2.jpg I'm hoping this sequel delivers, especially after Jaimie Alexander literally put her back on it. Has she recovered from her injuries? Quote
areaseven Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Has she recovered from her injuries? The fall put her out of commission for only a month, so she's doing fine. Quote
Twoducks Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Still, the description of that back injury sounded scary Quote
Raptor One Posted April 23, 2013 Posted April 23, 2013 That poster is sick. Way better than ANY of the posters for Thor 1 Quote
azrael Posted April 23, 2013 Author Posted April 23, 2013 There's a 1st look floating around, but it's unofficial and may get pulled. But here's the official teaser: Quote
Hoptimus Posted April 23, 2013 Posted April 23, 2013 Looking forward to this. The first one was such a love letter to Kirby and Simonson who really made Thor work in Marvel. Quote
PetarB Posted April 23, 2013 Posted April 23, 2013 I really enjoyed the first one but felt it really fell over when he was stuck in Blandville, USA. Hopefully we spend as little time on Earth as possible... Quote
derex3592 Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 I went in knowing nothing about Thor and really enjoyed it. Will definitely chek this one out. Quote
Mr March Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 Looks on course to be a good sequel. If it can do as well or better than the first film, I'll be happy. From what I've read, all involed are just as serious about the characters as the creative talent behind the first one and that's what made that original film stand above the others. I say thee yay! Quote
hutch Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 That trailer looks great. Really enjoyed the first one and looking forward to this now. Quote
