Movies: Thor: Love and Thunder - July 8th, 2022

[Jussi]

Yeah but not everyone thats are here for the movies, know the comics

Feige is also known to deviate from the comics about 80% of the time. We don't know how closely it will follow comic book eventually.

This is the official synopsis:

The film finds Thor (Chris Hemsworth) on a journey unlike anything he’s ever faced – a quest for inner peace. But his retirement is interrupted by a galactic killer known as Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), who seeks the extinction of the gods. To combat the threat, Thor enlists the help of King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi) and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), who – to Thor’s surprise – inexplicably wields his magical hammer, Mjolnir, as the Mighty Thor. Together, they embark upon a harrowing cosmic adventure to uncover the mystery of the God Butcher’s vengeance and stop him before it’s too late. Directed by Waititi (“Thor: Ragnarok,” “Jojo Rabbit”) and produced by Kevin Feige and Brad Winderbaum, “Thor: Love and Thunder” opens in theaters July 8, 2022.

This is the official synopsis:

I think they will just use some of the general ideas from Mighty Thor. I don't think Jane will have cancer for example. I also don't think Thor will be unworthy as that has been done in the MCU already.

Will be interesting to see what they take and what will be new. The whole finding himself with Korg if they go our on "adventures" should be fun.

With the light-hearted style Ragnarok had (at times), I would love to see a Rocky-esque montage of Thor losing the gut

so what's the next step once all male heroes in stories have been replaced with female ones?

Keep going to the movies and watching the shows as long as the product is still quality.

Replace them with those darn immature kids! (The Young Avengers)

Forced neutering of the male audience. No wait, some of them are doing it themselves already.

Spider-man has carried on just fine. Spider-woman, Silk and Spider-Gwen all get their own titles. The Jane as Thor storyline was great. She-Hulk didn't get in the way of Banner's Hulk. Diversity just means new stories and angles to reach new audiences. No harm to traditionalists.

The only thing that bothered me when the made Jane the Mighty Thor in the comics was the use of the name Thor. It comes from the real world ancient religion and to use the name for another person like it was a title and not a name bothered me as someone who went to university in Anthropology and did a course an ancient gods from the Romans, Greeks, Norse, etc.

Is that some sort of body cast or CGI trickery or did Natalie Portman gain some serious muscle for this movie? Look at those arms!

I thought the same thing. Probably a combination of CGI and Portman gaining mass.

 

[beowulf]

No she really worked out like crazy like most MCU actors. I believe it's all real and no CGI

 

[Jussi]

Yeah, those guns are real. She's worked for them.

Some serious muscle and work done on her face too. I didn't even recognize her at first.

 

[MadDevil]

Yeah, those guns are real. She's worked for them.

That's probably a good sign in that I think she is great when she's really into a role, but can really phone it in when she isn't.

The next step would to be to laugh at all the people so insecure in their own masculinity that they find a female hero to be a problem

oh dear looks like I hit a nerve. It's going to be ok.

New trailer on Monday during the basketball game.

I'm still waiting for an explanation on Hogun's accent

Either Marvel is under the impression that a person's accent is based on their facial features, or Hogun grew up in the part of Asgard where they speak Japanese

Hogun in the MCU is from Vanaheim, not Asgard.

[Hivemind]

Hogun grew up in the part of Asgard where they speak Japanese

This is such a stupid detail to be concerned over. It's an alien race featuring gods with super powers based very loosely upon mythology of Nordic countries. Why do they speak English at all?

Or maybe it's a super genius detail to be concerned over. Did that ever cross your hivemind?

 

[barriers]

Where they speak Japanese?

It's not Japanese. It's a completely separate language with no relation that happens to be the exact same as Japanese, that also happens to produce the same accent when speaking Asgardian, which itself happens to be quite similar to English.
