Marvel recruited Game Of Thrones director Alan Taylor to take the hammer (or more like director’s megaphone) from Kenneth Branaugh as the Asgardian Avenger returns for his next solo movie. Taylor took a different visual approach when making Thor: The Dark World.

 

“I love doing period stuff, and I was immersed in Game Of Thrones,” Continue reading New Look For THOR THE DARK WORLD

It’s a good week to be a bad guy from Asgard! Fans are petitioning Marvel to give Loki his own solo movie and the trickster is starring in this second solo poster for Thor: The Dark World.

 

From the trailers we know the Avenging God of Thunder (Chris Hemsworth) will reach out to his half-brother (Tom Hiddleston) for help when Malekith (Christopher Eccleston) leads an ancient army against the Nine Realms.

 

Can Thor trust Loki in his unholy alliance against a more oppressive force? Continue reading LOKI Escapes in THOR THE DARK WORLD Poster

Will Marvel give the people what they want?

 

Even if what they want is a super villain in the spotlight?

 

An online petition for a Loki solo film continues to surge. More than 12,000 fans have signed the Change.org petition.

 

Tom Hiddleston will play the Trickster God one last time (?) in Thor: The Dark World. The Avengers sequel will star Ultron as the big bad. No word yet on a third Thor film so The Dark World will likely be Loki’s swan song but not if the Loki Army has something to say about it… Continue reading LOKI Solo Movie Petition

The Asgardian Avenger takes on Malekith the Accursed in Thor: The Dark World this November.

 

Chris Hemsworth reprises his role as the God of Thunder and Tom Hiddleston is back as Loki. Christopher Eccleston (28 Days Later, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, Doctor Who) plays Malekith, leader of the Dark Elves. We’ve seen very little of the classic Thor villains in the trailer. Continue reading THOR THE DARK WORLD Malekith Unmasked
