Can you fucking believe there is going to be a live action Thor movie? Hell, when Thor guest starred in that Incredible Hulk TV movie I was blown away, and now there’s a huge budget real movie version of the Asgardian superhero getting ready to shoot. Getting ready to shoot in January!
Marvel will begin filming this January in LA (I’m assuming at their studios in Huntington Beach) before moving to Santa Fe, New Mexico in March. They’ll shoot there until April. That’s a big schedule.
I’m guessing that a huge amount of the LA stuff will be work on sets and green screens. So what about Santa Fe? If I’m right, I bet they go up into the mountains as opposed to New Mexico’s famous and horrible deserts. It’s kind of a poor man’s Middle Earth up in those mountains, with snow-capped peaks and huge trees.
Now we start waiting for the pics to come out. I think they may have learned a lesson with Iron Man and instead of having our first look at Thor in full regalia being a crummy spy snap we’ll get an official look at the guy in the pages of a mainstream publication like USA Today or Entertainment Weekly. I can’t wait to see what Captain Kirk’s dad looks like in that outfit.
Hold your mighty hammer in your hand and slowly work the shaft on our message boards.

kenneth branagh kicks so much ass
I love Dan Jurgens' Thor books! I hope Branagh goes for that whole fall of Odin storyline or at least sets it up here. That would make an awesome trilogy. Some of the best Marvel books ever, believe me.
<p>… on a slightly different note, please cast Sarah Jessica Parker as Beta-Ray Bill. No makeup needed.
I went to school in Santa Fe. I wouldn't call it a poor man's anything haha.
Die in pain ha ha. I hope they take a page (literally) from the Ultimates comics and give him that Matrix-y costume; every other version looked gaytarded. I mean, Kirby was an amazing storyteller (particularly when scripted by anyone else) but he's completely overrated as a designer. Thor? Fantastic Four? Captain America, with the fucking wings on his temples? All gaytarded designs. As a matter of fact, look at the picture accompanying this article: what the fuck is going on with the thighs there? I mean, it's not like he's Rob Liefield, saw how fucked up his anatomy was, said, "Pfffft, fuck it" and got paid for it anyway. He willfully distorted it – the Jack Kirby way! It wasn't intended for modern airbrushy coloring techniques, though. Okay, I admit I'm rambling. And while I'm doing that, I hope in the Avengers movie no one believes Thor is a god. Having Robert Downy Jr. and Samuel L. Jackson looking at Kirk's dad like he's an insane Dane with a giant shithammer would be priceless.
Ultimates version of Thor sucks totally. Other than Fury in the films, they haven't even gone with much of the Ultimate stuff. It's a one-trick pony and no one even reads those comics anymore. Well, maybe Glen.
All for Jurgens/Oeming combo. Jurgens story, Oeming look. Gold, as long as it's a fantasy-like film.
Having Thor show up with MC Hammer and NOT Mjolner? Box-office gold, my friends.
