WTF? No 2D screenings? That's a bad decision that's got to be rectified.

....but they aren't filming w/ 3D cameras are they?

They get it? if it's now w/ the cameras then it's still a post conversion.

It is.

The whole facility was built around the New Mexico site where Mjolnir was found at the end of Iron Man 2.


Oh and...

Just because it's post converted doesn't mean it automatically sucks; Cameron had a test conversion of Titanic done and he loved how it looked. It's how well you do it and how good the source is that matters.

Again, the fact that the cgi is 3D is a big plus.

well..ok...I'm iffy at this point.

Granted..that I'm most excited for the battles and if they were filmed w/ the idea of 3D well that'd be epic. So far....I'm not game on the idea but...we'll see.

At the Marvel booth, more to come are great giveaways, presentations, games and signings that make the Marvel Booth the place to be! And if you think the helmets look great here, just wait until you see them on the big screen when "Thor" soars into theaters on May 6, 2011.

I think that 3D only thing is bullshit. It would open in significantly less theaters if that was the case and I don't think Marvel would shoot themselves in the foot like that.

I just talked to one of my Marvel associates who told me I may get to have a hands on session with the helmets tomorrow might!

And if that wasn't enough, look who took over Odin's throne room:

Those are nice. I was never a huge fan of Thor's Helmet because Loki's looked so much cooler....and it still does.

the action figures don't have any of the three characters with their helmets on, so I'm guessing at most they'll make make an cameo appearance for a scene or two, and that's it.

Which will probably be a shame since they look quite striking in those exhibit photos.

It seems there will be direct overlap between the Thor and Captain America movies beyond just the Avengers angle.

Additional Elements In THOR Movie Revealed

Spoiler:
"If we were curious about how much "Thor" and "Captain America" would be directly related, (the raw Captain America footage) answered the question for us. One of the coolest sets I saw when I visited the "Thor" set was Odin's vault where he keeps all of the most dangerous items in the Universe, the things he has collected from all the remote corners of the Universe. It's part trophy-room, part evidence locker. Odin keeps them there so no one can use them to bring about Ragnarok. And, evidently, not everything he put in there has remained in there, because the scene we watched involved The Red Skull (Hugo Weaving) searching this tomb for something he refers to as "The Tesseract."

If it is true, that's one less ticket sold from me.

I'd still see the film even if it was only released in 3D. But I seriously doubt Marvel would do that. They would lose half of Thor's sales, no studio is that bold or stupid.

Yeah, no way I'm seeing it in theaters if it's 3D only. HATE that fucking trend.

I've found an interview from ComicCon with Tom Hiddleson (Loki). I must say, I was impressed with the amount of Thor knowlege he had.

Fun little fan trailer with a nice mix of footage, including judicious use of scenes from Outlander:
