Ridley Scott and Steven Spielberg should Co-direct.

Stan Lee should write the script.

George Lucas should replace Kevin Feige as producer

Angelina Jolie should play Thor. Natalie Portman can return as Jane.

No, I think Portman is still contractually obligated to return as Jane.

I was really hoping she'd get killed off in 2. I'd heard rumors that she would, and my body was ready.

I was disappointed.

Why? She's a fine character.

Emphasis on "fine" wink

Tzeentch
So's Jamie Alexander.

The difference being that Jamie Alexander gives the impression when on-screen that she actually wants to be in the film and enjoys her character.

Portman is just collecting a paycheck and at this point there's nowhere for the Jane/Thor relationship to go but down. Time to kill her off, let Thor mope for awhile than hook up with Sif.

BruceSkywalker
from what i've read a little of Thor's storyline for Age of Ultron will be him and Jane no longer a couple, if true then that will transfer over to Thor 3

This sounds fcked, cause it left off as him returning to earth and giving up the Throme to Loki schemes to be with her. Why would they do this now?

Thor will probably be a woman, those bastards!

it makes for better storytelling sometimes.. also indeed portman won't be returning then a line or two in age of ultron will suffice , then thety'll tackle it head on in thor 3..

Thor gave up the throne to be protector of Midgard. Not to be with Jane.

PORTMAN Out; New THOR Love Interest Cast for RAGNAROK



http://www.newsarama.com/28780-report-new-thor-love-interest-cast-for-ragnarok-kind-of-a-superhero.html

Darth Thor
Was she not contracted for 3 films? That's gonna be strange given how Thor:TDW ended.

Kazenji
People seem to think Tessa Thompson will be either Roz Solomon Or Valkyrie.

CPT Space Bomb
Honestly, if Natalie Portman is too stupid to want to be in these films then good riddance. If it's good enough for Sam Jackson, Anthony Hopkins, RDJ etc...then it should be good enough for her. I hate snooty people that act like being in a comic book movie is beneath them.

I don't think she's being snooty...after all she became famous from the Star Wars franchise. She went from playing an empowering character to cliched love interest in Thor.

And Jackson & Hopkins really don't care what they do these days as long as there's a pay check at the end of the day.

Darth Thor
It is a bit strange she doesn't want to be more associated with the role though, given how big Marvel movies have become.

I mean Gwenyth Paltrow embraced her role and was happy to have a role in Avengers, and remained the female lead in IM3 which became one of the biggest movies of all time, just like Thor 3 probably will be.

It's her preference I guess, but then why do Thor1, and why sign on for 2 more?

Esau Cairn
Well the plots in the Marvel franchise have broken away from love interests/damsels in distress. I don't think Paltrow or Portman are going to put their careers or personal lives on hold just to do a cameo for Marvel.
They both did kinda get written off in AOU already by both IM & Thor.

Maybe their contracts just simply stated if the plot needed them then they would be contractually obligated.

Disagree with Sam Jackson to a certain degree, Yeah he does some films where it does seem like that "days as long as there's a pay check at the end of the day"

but then he does other films where he puts a bit more effort into them.

Esau Cairn
Jackson is credited in appearing in over 122 films.
IMO that's quantity over quality.
A pay check.

Kazenji
Quality with some of those films

but hey if you disagree, Fair enough.

Esau Cairn
Of course I'm not debating the quality of his acting in some of his films.
But at some stage of his career he made that decision to simply play himself whenever a paid job was offered.

^@ares Ah to work with Kenneth Branagh.. That makes sense. Wish he stayed on for the sequels.

That's what I don't understand with everybody praising Kenneth B for his directing skills. He's the one that introduced Darcy & crew for the comic relief.

Thor is the last franchise I'd expect needing comic relief.

Darth Thor
Kenneth B did a wonderful job with Thor1 IMO. Massively better than whatever his name was who did TDW.

Darcy and crew got annoying in TDW Imo.

Firefly218
Now that Thor is acclimated to earth, marvel can do movies in other realms. As far as comic relief, Fandral and Volstagg of the Warriors three are sufficient.

CPT Space Bomb
I liked the Thor movies. The problem I had with TDW was:

1)Too much humor; especially Darcy and crew
2) Malekith wasn't allowed to be fleshed out or given more personality.
3) They should have had Thor find a way to defeat Malekith without THE HUMANS....FFS. There is no great payoff with the way he ultimately defeats Malekith. Had the humans not been involved it would have been better.
4) No more Loki please. I love Tom Hiddleston as much as the next Marvel fan but can THOR be the star of his own movies please? It would allow for more backstory and character development for Thor; as well as allow room for different villains. Thor has a pretty awesome Rogues gallery.


That being said I actually really enjoyed TDW. Probably a 7.5/10 for me.

Kazenji
Yeah...Malekith needed to be almost like the Joker.

ShadowFyre
Pretty much just like the joker only a magical elf. He seems to be more like Carnage in a way as well. Pretty much just killing everything

CPT Space Bomb
Well, here's hoping we get an incredible villain in Ragnarok. What if they give us Mangog and Thor and Hulk have to team up to take him on! That would be pretty epic.

ShadowFyre
Well, i am not positive but there is going to be at least 3 vilkians I'm guessing? Loki and Enchantress at first and then a big bad somewhere at the end where the two villians and heroes team up to beat them.

Marvel really needs to work on its villians. So far, Loki is the only one they did any justice whatsoever. Ultron was horrible, Malekith was literally the exact opposite of what he is supposed to be, and Kurse was a suit which made him amd the scenes in general with him, very lackluster and boring.

Ultron was horrible, Malekith was literally the exact opposite of what he is supposed to be, and Kurse was a suit which made him amd the scenes in general with him, very lackluster and boring. Ultron wasn't horrible. He wasn't exactly what I wanted him to be but he was definitely not horrible. MCU villain hate is WAY overplayed btw.

Iron Man 1- Obadiah Stane was pretty solid. Jeff Bridges was often cited as one of the highlights of the movie

Iron Man 2 - Okay, Whiplash and "MC" Hammer were terrible....

Iron Man 3- While I didn't mind the comic twist on Mandarin, Killian wasn't good I'll give you that

Thor 1- Loki was excellent.

Thor 2 - Malekith wasn't great but Kurse was pretty cool; if fleeting.

Captain America 1 - Red Skull was great. Hugo Weaving did a great job bringing the Nazi A-hole to life.....though it sucks they got rid of him.

Captain America 2- Winter Soldier as the antagonist was amazing. Also, Robert Redford did a hell of a job as Alexander Pierce.

The Incredible Hulk - Thunderbolt Ross played by William Hurt was solid; and Emil Blonsky (Tim Roth) was pretty good until he turned into Abomination.

Avengers 1- Loki again shined; but that's not surprising as Hiddleston is amazing.

Avengers 2- Again, Ultron was pretty good, certainly one of the better Marvel villains imo. He wasn't great, but I'd say he was good enough.

Guardians of the Galaxy - I actually liked Ronan, I just felt he was wasted by them killing him off at the end. Also, he didn't get quite enough screen time. But I like Lee Pace's take on the character. He was a badass and one can't blame him for succumbing to Chris Pratt's pelvic sorcery.

Ant-Man - Yah, okay, I couldn't stand Yellowjacket. The epitome of a throwaway villain from the MCU. The only real stain on an otherwise great movie.

Meant to specify Thor villians and hence Avenger villians. Read your thoughts and have to agree with majority of this and actually looking at them in a list like that puts it in a different perspective as well, keep forgetting how many movies deep the mcu is already.

Ultrons persona and character were ok as he is just an emo robot in comics as well. I just thought the majority of action scenes, his different fights and he just never felt threatening to anybody even one on one. The best thing he did was punch Thor a few times and that was alleviated immediately by Thor basically say he was just playin around for vision to hit him.

Kurse should have been cgi like hulk. The character was a stone cold bad ass that knew what he was doing but he could have been way better and bigger with cgi

Mandarin was completely retarded. So was im2

Ronan's design was the best. He looked like a badass amd felt like a legitimate threat to guardians.

Agree with rest though.

If we get Mangog for Thor 3, I hope they use his design on the Thor God of Thunder Video Game. That Mangog was like Mangog+Destroyer armor in design.

ShadowFyre
Not gonna lie, a little concerned with the storyline since they are basically trying to jam planet hulk in as well. Only thing I can say is, if they are planning on making one big Thor and Hulk bashfest then they might as well go all out, at least give us a couple of REAL good fights between the two.

And if they go thebother route, I hope they at least make Ragnarok mean something and not just a movie title.

5. They left out Hogun when he grew a beard for this movie. It needed more Sif and Warrior's Three as supporting cast and comic relief. This movie would get so much hate had it been the Warrior's Three having fun and telling jokes while defending middle Earth.

They aren't going to really kill a big character until they're ready for that character to die for good.

He better be.

As for Thor dying, I think there is a very real chance that he may. But considering he is a God and Infinity War will have Death he could be resurrected.

Kazenji
Never went near that Thor game since it was a shit movie tie-in game.

CPT Space Bomb
I think I'm now more excited for this film than any upcoming MCU film; including Doctor Strange.


1. We know Loki has somehow usurped the throne form Odin after the ending of The Dark World.

2. We know Hulk is going to be in this movie and will play a fairly big role.

3. We know that Cate Blanchett is in the movie and is playing Hela.


So, here is my theory: Loki (disguised as Odin) tricks Thor and Hulk into fighting each other in Hel (throwback to the comics) somehow. Perhaps the "Winner" is able to leave Hel and go save Asgard/earth...whatever. Also, Loki plays a part in releasing Surtur. Thor and Hulk then have to team up to take on the most powerful threats yet in the MCU. Could be Mangog? Surtur? Who knows...either way I cannot wait for this movie now.

quanchi112
Adding Hulk to this movie really was a great move. Hulk and Thor together is awesome. Marvel has to many films to look forward to. Poor DC.

If you count the good ones though, you might be surprised how many there are.

Not to mention Loki is probably the favorite comic book movie villain after Ledger's Joker.

The difference is with or without Ledger, that incarnation of the villain was a one off. Whilst Loki is still around.

Plus we have Thanos coming.

I'm okay with a "Few" earth scenes. After all, Thor does protect Midgard with his life. But, it was way overboard in the last 2.

Also, I agree I'm glad Natalie Portman is gone. You could tell she just wasn't into it; that and her character was bad.

Thought this was announced last year but its nice to get reconfirmation. With that said I can't help but fear that Kat Denning's character is going to get crammed in this movie somehow.

It'd be refreshing if they just said "Thor dumped her". Otherwise they don't need to put in a big effort, they will probably just say she's off doing something science related.

Magic apocalypse's aren't really her area of expertise.

That would be refreshing but would just seem a bit of a random turn given that's been the direction of the last 2 films.

I think your 2nd idea of her being off on a science thing would be better. After all they mention her in both A1 and A2 without her needing to be in it.

Seems to be a trend with the Marvel heroes. They can't keep their love lives in check. It's a shame really. I'm hoping Steve and Sharon Carter turn out better than Thor and Tony did with their girlfriends.

Inhuman
WTF , Goldblum will play "The Grandmaster" qshock


Karl Urban should have been Beta Ray Bill sad

Ugh. No Surtur...

Goldblum is a big plus though. Great cast.

Steve's an ass-man, so Carter may or may not be happy

I swear if they screw up Ragnarok I'm gonna be really pissed off. Hopefully Goldblum has a small role.

Hope this is good.

So what exactly is Hulk's role in this film supposed to be? Where does it fit in the timeline between AOU and Civil war? I'm assuming since that politician guy mentioned they were both missing it takes place close to the events of Civil war. Anyone have any ideas?

StiltmanFTW
"That politician guy" was General Ross... from The Incredible Hulk.

As for Hulk's role, I hope it's the same or similar at least as in Hulk vs. Thor animated film.

TethAdamTheRock
but Hulk lifted the hammer in that anime (By brute force alone overpowering the Odin enchantment) whistle lol

StiltmanFTW
1. He did not. You're thinking of Ultimate Avengers 1, you noob stick out tongue

2. Animated movie is not anime, lol.

Yes, General Ross was Rulk in comics.

.

TethAdamTheRock
I mean MCU

StiltmanFTW
MCU, you mean stick out tongue

Doubtful. Ross works better as a normal human, anyway...

TethAdamTheRock
ok

StiltmanFTW
Marvel has plenty of "brick" type characters waiting to get introduced.

Bi-Beast, Madman, Wendigo, Tutinax, Titannus, Ravage, etc.

General Ross hulking out would just seem silly, imo. Especially so soon. Took decades of comics before Loeb came up with those ridiculous Red Hulk and Red She-Hulk ideas.

I think Wendigo would be a goodone.

Peter Dinklage as Pip the Troll

CPT Space Bomb
I went from being super hyped for this movie to Super depressed. They're gonna **** it up like TDW.... sigh.

playa1258
The role of the Pip the troll went to Dinklage over Quanchi112 because Quan refused to admit MCU Thor would beat Khan in combat.

Quan was immediately terminated from having further contact with the studio.

Kazenji
Its Karl Urban that's not sitting with me, I just don't see him as Skurge.

Is that what they're doing? Damn I wanted to see BRB.

ShadowFyre
Theyre not replacing Bill. Theyre giving Hulk a small planet hulk nod and helping Thors sales out...

In addittion, theyre seperating the street levellers from the big boys in civil war and ragnarok, which will probably gonna let them display their power better.

Thor will be without Mjolnir for a decent part of the movie, so he will have to explore his other options and that should be good.

It sounds like theres gonna be a lot more money involved as well. I wasnt very happy with first two movies so hoping for a better one.

Darth Thor
Thor1 was great and massively helped the build up of Phase I to Avengers. TDW however was a big let down.

TethAdamTheRock
Great

TethAdamTheRock
Hope they introduce Gladiator for infinity war, and Zeus

StiltmanFTW
Not likely at all, since they had nothing to do in IW.

I hope we see something really Uber from Odin. Show us why he's the King of Asgard.

My dream was a movie called "Ragnarok" might actually include Surtur and perhaps Thor and Hulk's battle in Hel. Hey, it could still happen, but with Goldblum being cast....I dunno man. I'll wait till I see a trailer for it but I'm going to be pretty pissed off if Grandmaster ends up being the main villain.

playa1258
Want to see Thor and Hulk go to town in this film.

Darth Thor
Karl Urban will kill it as Skurge. I'm betting him and Hulk will be going toe to toe.

I would'eve liked Thor bjornsson more for the role of Skurge.

Darth Thor
So wait, who thinks Grandmaster will be used as a way to pit Hulk against different beings in combat. I.e. A version of Planet Hulk?

Doubting it.

He'll likely be wasted just like Collector.

sad sad

Kazenji
He's going to be off his face?....sounds good.

StiltmanFTW
I mean, he'll seem like a minor character instead of a cosmic manipulator he's supposed to be.

Kazenji
I'm sure they will do that, Also they most likely haven't got anything more planned for the character in the long run with the MCU

StiltmanFTW
Quite likely, yes.

Kazenji
I know Benicio Del Toro has expressed interest in returning as The Collector, But its all up to James Gunn and what he wants to do with Gotg 2.

Patient_Leech
So I hear Jeff Goldblum and Karl Urban got added to this cast. That's fu#kin' awesome.

And I see Jeff Goldblum's character is Grandmaster. That's appropriate. thumb up

You think they would announce his casting just for an after credits scene?
