Copying what I posted in a different forum:

Apparently Marvel Studios and Walt Disney Pictures have moved Thor 2 off its July 26, 2013 date for the less crowded November 15, 2013 slot (a slot that Twilight and Harry Potter did quite well with).

Not only that, Patty Jenkins (Monster) is officially confirmed to direct with Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, and Tom Hiddleston reprising their roles. The current script is being penned by Don Payne, who co-wrote the first film.


Any thoughts? I don't know who Jenkins will pick to score the film, but I'm hoping Doyle will return. (Or at least some of his themes.)

Thor, imo, was the best of the superhero films this summer. I'm thrilled they are making a sequel. I hope Doyle returns as well, if not, I would gladly take David Arnold.

Gee and I'm thinking Thor was the worst of this summers superhero films, He was to damned arrogant for my tastes and Loki was the lamest villain.
OH God, Joe is posting again, someone hand me my pills!

"You're not John Conner, I saw you die, said Kyle". "I was only injured, replied John". "No, your injuries were too severe, you died. Look at you, where are your injuries? You're, you're a Terminator." "Kyle, its still me, yes my body was beyond repair, but my essence is here." He points to his head. "No John". Kyle raised his pulse rifle and aimed it at John but before he could fire, John fired first. Knocked to the ground Kyle looked up at the Terminator in the form of the man he once idolized. All hope was lost. "If you kill me how will you ever be born?" "Thats a good question Kyle, all this time we've focus on Sarah, on John, when had we known the it was you we should have targeted all along." John pointed his rifle at Kyle's face. "The resistance is finished, the battle is won. We the machines are the victors, salvation is ours." Kyle never heard the second shot.

Nothing. Just when this film starts shooting, it won't clog that thread.

The film never grabbed me (perhaps because we have a special connection to the Norse God over here....the REAL one after which I'm named, not the Marvel version!), and I was totally surprised by Doyle's RC-clone score. But hey....I'm up for a second chance. Perhaps it's one of those franchises that get better in the sequel?

It's Marvel.

I find it baffling that in Marvel they have so little faith in their own characters when making films.

Norse mythology is based on Marvel. I'm sure they'll find a way to sue someone over that. ;)

From a storytelling point of view, from a directing point of view, there is one thing I associate with what he does, which is calm. There is such an inherent calm and inherent trust of the one powerful image, that he makes me embarrassed with my own work, in terms of how many different shots, how many different sound effects, how many different things we’ll throw at an audience to make an impression. But with Kubrick, there is such a great trust of the one correct image to calmly explain something to audience. There can be some slowness to the editing. There’s nothing frenetic about it. It’s very simple. There’s a trust in simple storytelling and simple image making that actually takes massive confidence to try and emulate. - Christopher Nolan

You got that right. Some lady sued the studio of Drive because there wasn't enough driving.

Eh, different strokes.

If it makes you feel any better, Captain Amurrrica was a close second.

Why wouldn't a god be arrogant?
