Still don't see how you're coming up with that. I just watched it again and I don't see any rampant pop culture references. I also don't think that the director will break his style to do that.

Hmm, guess I took the taser and Facebook reference and multiplied it.  I'll just shush for now ;)

I'm not sure I really care for the guy playing Thor but the movie looks fun. It's hard to tell in such a short trailer but the CGI work makes it look like the film was mostly green screen which to me gives it a less realistic feel. But the main thing is does it tell a good story right? We'll find out soon enough.

Thor is a tricky character to bring to the screen.  He isn't your typical superhero.  With all the Asgard and gods stuff it will be interesting to see how they play this.  I've read a fair number of Thor comics and enjoyed most of them.  One thing I think is interesting is when Thor is "mortal" and in the guise of Donald Blake he is an average looking guy, a doctor.  He only gets big, muscular, etc. when he becomes Thor.  It looks like they have sort of tossed that concept out for the film.  Anyway, we'll see how things turn out.

I think that they are playing closer to the ultimates versions for all of the films. In that universe, Fury is black and Thor was never the average looking Doc.

I don't follow the newer Ultimate Thor book, but I know what you mean.  I was speaking more to classic Thor.  Marvel and the studios seem to play a bit fast and loose with all this.  But I will miss seeing Don Blake with a cane, tapping it on the ground to become Thor.

I never read much of the Thor comics but I do read and watch him in the Avengers and the tv show Avengers on Disney XD. I think he fits well into the team. I will go see the movie because I do think it looks like a good one. And how can you go wrong with Kirk's dad and especially Natalie Portman!

And a new TV spot aired last night.  The quality is bad, but I couldn't find a better version anywhere yet.

Man, did their marketing people luck out having an Academy Award winner suddenly in their film! Natalie will for sure drive ticket sales and deservedly so.

Rico

Natalie's always been great.  I first saw her way back in "The Professional" movie when she was still very young - but still very talented.

WillEagle

Rico, I remember that movie as well. And I agree very good actor even then. And she looks niiiice in that poster!
