Destino Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Wow, that was the same guy? I need a Hollywood nutritionist and personal trainer. Yeah man. Before: After: That's a hell of a transformation. If he really worked his ass off to get in shape for that role, he deserves a great deal of credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACW Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Probably went through the 300 training regimen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mardi gras skin Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 I was totally impressed with this movie. --Loki: I did not expect him be as sophisticated and subtle as he was. --Portman: I thought she (and both her friends) played off their quirky characters very well --two worlds: It didn't feel disjointed to me. The seriousness of Asgard contrasted against the humor on earth felt great. There were several moments where I would have had to apologize to the guy in front of me if I had been drinking a coke. --I wasn't expecting much of Hemsworth before I saw the movie so I was pleasantly surprised. He made for a great Thor. --Fight scenes. GREAT! The Frost Giants and the Destroyer were both well done. I don't want to drop details and ruin it for anyone but I'm really glad I dropped my money on this movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conn Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Alright, I'm convinced. I'm going to see it on Friday. Ditto, I'll be seeing it very soon. That sold me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgold Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 I enjoyed it. I agree a bit with the disjointed storytelling comment, but it came together and was definitely fun. Kenneth Branaugh as director was a really interesting choice since he cut his teeth doing so much Shakespeare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracelander Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Saw it yesterday, I thought it was really good and Thor is not a comic book that I read a kid. Make sure you stay for the bonus scene at the end of the credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACW Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 I didn't know much about the comic (though I knew a bit about the myth), but liked it. Sinister, just go expecting a fun time and you'll like it Hopkins was good as Odin. My question is, Why did Thor destroy the bridge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins24 Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Very good movie. Very entertaining, Think I'll watch all the movies again to see if this is my #1 or #2 favorite so far. I need a horse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To stop the teleporter (or the bifrost bridge) from blowing up the ice giant's planet. It was the powerline for the transporter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very entertaining, Think I'll watch all the movies again to see if this is my #1 or #2 favorite so far. I liked it every bit as much as Iron Man. Downey was better than Hemsworth but Loki and the Frost Giant were better villians. Overall, a wash. Both were great comic adaptations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
