This is right in line with your Amazing Spider-Man junk, though. Makes sense.

I thought it was easily the worst out of the Avengers' reboot movies.

And the Garfield Spiderman was a much better movie than the last Tobey one.

I have them ranked:

1) 2 (Doc Oc)
2) Reboot (Lizard)
3) 1 (Green Goblin)
4) 3 (Sandman)

4th is a distant 4th. The other three were are very good, IMO.

Sif + The Dark World villains

Rumor of the Day: A Lord of the Rings king may be Thor 2's Dr. Strange

Quote:

Yes, rumor has it that Aragorn himself, Viggo Mortensen, is now the frontrunner to play Strange in The Dark World, provided the rumor of the Doctor appearing in that flick was solid to begin with (it does seem very plausible). We also threw Mortensen's name out last week alongside Joel Edgerton (most recently of flicks like Warrior and The Thing), but word is Edgerton's schedule was already packed with projects like Kathryn Bigelow's kill-bin-Laden flick Zero Dark Thirty, leaving Mortensen alone at the top of the list.

Mortensen would be a perfect choice, IMO.

No Viggo

Quote:

We would love to work with Viggo Mortensen. I've been trying that for years. But I don't know if Viggo is even acting anymore. I thought he wasn't acting anymore. It would be great to work with him in the future, but we don't have him signed, no.

She didn't rule out Strange... just Viggo as Strange.

Stunt double?

First official synopsis:

Quote:

Marvel's "Thor: The Dark World" continues the big-screen adventures of Thor, the Mighty Avenger, as he battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself. In the aftermath of Marvel's "Thor" and "Marvel's The Avengers," Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos...but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.

Presented by Marvel Studios, Thor: The Dark World is directed by Game Of Thrones' Alan Taylor and invades theaters on November 8, 2013. It stars Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Tom Hiddleston, Stellan Skarsgård, Idris Elba, Christopher Eccleston, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Kat Dennings, Ray Stevenson, Zachary Levi, Tadanobu Asano and Jaimie Alexander with Rene Russo and Anthony Hopkins as Odin.

Loki is back.

Sometimes the answer is to climb the nearest mountain and everything is better. Literally. Not a metaphor.

Was Portman forced to return?

Quote:

Before Game of Thrones director Alan Taylor was tapped to direct Thor: The Dark World, Patty Jenkins was set to be in the director's chair ... but then she and Marvel studios parted ways. In turn, this decision made actress Natalie Portman quite unhappy with the studio, and it's now reported that the actress may have been "forced" back to reprise her role as Thor's (Chris Hemsworth) lady love Jane Foster.

Details of Jaimie Alexander's on-set injury have been released.

Quote:

"I herniated a disk in my Thoracic spine, I dislocated my left shoulder, I tore my right Rhomboid, and chipped eleven of my vertebrae," Alexander said in an interview. "I slipped and fell down something very high, and I hurt my self pretty badly and it scared me. I knew when I couldn't get off the ground I was like 'OK, I'm in big trouble.'"

She went on to say that it got worse:

Quote:

"Then, I was okay, but I was in a lot of pain. The next morning I got in a car to back go to the hospital, because I said 'something feels wrong,' and I sat in the car where I compressed my spine a little bit, and I went paralyzed in my right leg and my right hand. So I was in the hospital for a week, but it was a thing where it was just a swelling thing. Once the swelling went down I was good to go, went to physical rehab every day for a month, went back and did some more fight sequences."

Wow. That's crazy business. I'm glad she's okay.

More details on timeline: http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansit.../news/?a=73343

Quote:

The film will take place roughly one year after the events of The Avengers, and two years after Thor. As the film begins, Thor will be a "full-time general," and Asgard will be in big trouble. As the film begins, Asgard is war-ravaged thanks to attacks "by rag-tag invaders known as The Marauders." It's during this time of apparent vulnerability that the Dark Elves will arrive, “wreathed in Gigeresque body armour" and led by Malekith. And if that weren't enough for Thor to contend with, he'll also have to figure out how to reconnect with his Midgard girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) and explain what exactly he's been up to for the last two years (and maybe mention why he didn't pay her a visit the last time he came to Earth).

Executive producer Craig Kyle also had this to say:

Quote:

“By bringing director Alan Taylor into the mix, with his expertise on The Sopranos, Mad Men and Game Of Thrones, we came up with a take that allows us to get more into the nooks and crannies of Asgard and its people," Kyle said. "We spend more time on the ground with the commoners, as opposed to in the palace. It's a very complicated blend [of genres: high science fiction, gritty fantasy, and realism]. Thor is, until Guardians of the Galaxy hits, by far our most wild, fringe Marvel piece. But that's why it's the Marvel Universe and not Marvel Earth!”
