I love that song but combined with the lettering that's what gave me the initial feel. That and the "I know what you're thinkin'..." wall breaking intro. That's just a very odd kick off to a dark movie.

If folks have heard otherwise, I'll certainly defer. Sountrack and font can make a mere promo look completely different (we've all seen those jokey commercials on Youtube that take shit like the Wicker Man and make it look like a comedy).

I'm excited for the movie; I think Hemsworth's Thor is wildly underrated in the MCU. The guy kills it.

Marvel has done a damn good job with casting. Hemsworth IS Thor. RDJ IS Tony Stark.

So it's gonna be Thor in the tourney instead of Beta Ray Bill.

I'm guessing this means Thor is about to get his shit pushed in by a big, veined out, green peen.

GotG2 is out in less than a month. Matching up the marketing look is a good move. Also have to think that this movie is more...celestial than previous Thor/Marvel movies. They're continuing to ramp up scale and ideas started in GotG (or even TtDW), then continued in Dr. Strange. Leading the style of the Avengers toward the style of the Guardians, meshing them together as they both head toward Infinity War.

I think the same goes for Chris Evans. That guy embodies Captain America to a T. Marvel has always killed their casting choices.

I enjoy watching Scarlet Johannson in black spandex...so that worked nicely.

Loki is great though as much as I like Hiddleston, I'm a little Hiddleston'd out at the moment.

Ruffalo...meh. Honestly, I really enjoy Cumberbatch but I thought he was a shit Dr. Strange; accent came and went and I just couldn't stay in the movie with him. Maybe he'll come around but the first performance was uneven at best. (I love Ejiofor as Mordo in that movie, though I've enjoyed every role I've seen him in since Serenity so I'm biased).

I guess Vision just doesn't matter enough to think his casting sucked but I think it kinda does. I like Jeremy Renner in general yet don't really give a shit about Hawkeye so that strikes me as it might be a miss. Love Lee Pace; thought he was disappointing as Ronan. There have been a lot of misfires on ancillary roles in Iron Man, but they're secondary to watching RDJ chew scenery so I guess that's to be expected. I want to see Natalie Portman die in just about every movie she's in but only because of the Star Wars Prequels so I might not be being fair.

Yeah, by and large they do good work on casting.

Hemsworth is maybe half as good as Evans

You're right, Evans does an unbelievable job of owning that character... he has the same earnest quality that Chris Reeves had
[Reply]

Agreed on some of the misses on ancillary characters. I can't believe they've casted such big names in these smaller roles for these MCU films like del Torro, Hopkins, Elba, Redford, etc.

I think they've been mostly successful with the major characters though. The ones that seemed surprising at the time of casting to me was Ruffalo and Cumberbatch, maybe because I had a hard time picturing them as a superheros. I do like Bettany's work as Vision though.

Oh, and Cate Blanchett looking goth is hot as ****

Torro and Goldblums characters are heavyweights in terms of their magnitude in that universe, IIRC. Hopefully we get to see that play out.

I'll be honest: I didn't really like the trailer.

Looks great

It was probably hard for him to see it on his mini tv. :-):-):-):-)
