Uh, no. Not in the same year as LOGAN.

where's all that Logan hype coming from?
The Last of Us nostalgia.
It's kind of ridiculous to say either is the best considering we've seen only one trailer for Logan and nothing from Thor. How about we wait until they're both out then we can needlessly compare two films that will probably end up being entirely different.

I am guessing the movie will unfold something like this (possible spoilers):
- Film opens with Thor on Asgard (maybe investigating the Infinity Stones), unaware that Loki is still masquerading around as Odin.
- Hela, Skurge and company abruptly arrives at Asgard with the intention of bringing about Ragnarok.
- Thor gets his ass kicked and his hammer taken, but not before it is inadvertently revealed Odin is Loki in disguise.
- Thor gets exiled with Loki to the far reaches of space, where they get picked up and forced to compete in the gladiator tournament.
- The grand master is running the show and pits Thor against his latest champion the Hulk.
- Lots of cool fighting, before they manage to break out.
- Thor wants to rush back to Asgard to prevent Ragnarok, but realises they need Odins help.
- They use the Quinjet to make a quick pit stop on earth, and get Strange's help to find Odin.
- Odin has a shit, shower and a shave.
- The four of them then travel back to Asgard, and are first confronted by Skurge on the Rainbow bridge.
- Heimdall has lost his sight, Hela took it from him whilst they were gone. Turns out the source was an infinity stone.
- Hela is about to get a beatdown by Loki, Thor and Odin but then Surtur turns up (voiced by Sam Neill).
- Surtur is defeated, but Asgard was destroyed during the battle, and Odin is killed.
- The surviving Asgardians, lead by Thor migrate to Earth. (Their existence hidden with the help of Strange).
- Post credit scene, is either the Infinity Stone being collected from the ruins of Asgard by Thanos, or just a clip showing it amongst the ruins. I expect they would probably go for the latter, as they may want Thanos to collect it during the Avengers.

Ryan Reynolds, mostly
That's a hell of a guess.

Yeah, a lot of the specifics may be way off, but in broad strokes I think we might get something similar.

I'm interested to see how Hulk gets thrown into the mix, does Thor or Loki bring Banner to Asgard for something, before all the shit goes down ?
Either way, getting a Planet Hulk style Hulk, with gladiator armour, beating the shit out of Thor and other aliens, should be awesome.

I don't think you know what the word 'relevance' means. LOL
To be honest, I wonder how far Disney could push "this is TOTALLY not a Hulk movie" before Universal would sue them.
Unless Universal's rights contract only pertain to the movie having the word "Hulk" somewhere in it's name, lol

So wait, Ragnarok is not going to be initiated? At least thats how i read the synopsis.
Never read the corresponding comics.
Never read the corresponding comics.
I mean, the bad guys usually lose in these movies, so...
Not nearly enough Hulk in that.
Mark Ruffalo said its going to be an intergalactic buddy road movie with Thor and Hulk.
So expect Hulk to be in it every step of the way.

I need a Hulk vs Spiderman fight in IW 1 or 2. I NEED IT.

This would make a ton of sense and would make Frigga's totally unnecessary death in The Dark World actually carry some weight. If it actually had any real meaning in that movie it very clearly affected Loki a great deal. Thor and Odin didnt seem to care at all after a few moments.

Good trailer and the first 40 minutes which a fair few folks have seen went down really well.
GotG2 is comic book movie I want most, but this sounds pretty cool as well.

Zemo partially won.
Edit: I know you said usually. I just wanted to prop up Zemo. He's one of the better comic book movie villains.

Yeah he went off the map in a ship at the end of AoU. If you're interested check out the Planet Hulk TPB for context. Pretty good story.

I'm still not sure what to expect from this movie, the stakes seems really serious and grim, the end of asgard civilation. But the director, team thor short, dr strange post credit etc seems very fun light hearted afventure. Sounds like the tone didn't match the story for the movie.

At least you can talk. Who are you?

Imagine this as post credits.
Also gives a reason for Thanos to come to Earth.

What is this?

Asgard rebuilt on Earth. Specifically in Oklahoma I think? Imagine what happens to someone who goes knocking on that door on behalf of the US government telling them what to do.

After some shit went down Thor moved Asgard to Earth. Pretty good run of stories.
Perfect time for the Dell Rusk storyline for Phase 4.

If only we had Beta Ray Bill in this. Then we'd be one step closer:
One step. I'll die when I'm able to see the Annihilators live and in technicolor in my local movie theater.
I hope not. Death needs to be something else. Can't just be another Asgardian. That'd be too simple, especially considering that Asgardians are basically just aliens.
Mephisto is the definition of a bottom-feeding shitkicker.Basically the Marvel Universe's Devil. He spends Infinity Gauntlet at Thanos' side telling him how amazing he is waiting for the opportunity to steal the Gauntlet and convincing Thanos to do stupid shit like giving the heroes a chance. Loki could easily fill that role given he has a connection already to Thanos.
Imagine Loki instead.
Beta Ray Bill replaces the Surfer in the animated adaption. Personally that makes more sense to me, but I didn't read the OG story or watch the film either way.
Asgardia as a stand-in for Attilan? Assuming they adapt Infinity, as Asgardia obviously has their own thing going on.

lol at the people saying it will be the best comic book movie of the year. no way!
You know, Thor, We really are the Dark World too

Seems similar to the Planet Hulk animated movie I saw on Netflix. It wasn't bad but I didn't care for it.
The Doctor Strange animated movie is back on Netflix, guess they had it removed while the live action movie was out in theatres. It was 90% similar to the live action movie (to be fair they were both the Strange origin story) so it made sense to have it removed.
There was an animated Wonder Woman movie as well that took place during one of the World Wars, so I'm assuming that's what the live action movie is based off of. It was ok not great, so I don't expect much from the live action movie. Now it's also missing from Netflix.
Justice League: War and Justice League: Flashpoint are two of the better animated comic book movies. I'm assuming War is the blue print they will use for the Justice League movie since Darkseid is the villain. Both are on Netflix and I enjoyed both, but it's sad that I expect Snyder to butcher it when they finally do Justice League.
