The Adventures of Captain Otter

If you havnt seen Star Trek yet, stop reading blog right now and go see it.  I’m not a trekkie, but I thought it was an awesome movie.  But thats not why you should go see it.  Go see it to get a first look of Thor taking on the Hulk.

Okay, so Eric Bana isnt the Hulk anymore.  But it seems that Chris Hemsworth has been chosen to play the Norse Superhero/God.  That is kind a terrifying combo when you think about it.  But I was actually thrilled when I heard the news.  I had gone to see Star Trek the night before, and the opening was probably my favorite part of the movie.

Theres been alot of talk as to who would play Thor, and I think Marvel made a great choice.  I mean, Ive only seen this guy in 10 minutes of actual film and Im pretty confident he fits the bill.  I was originally worried they would go with some big wrestler like Triple H or that Canadian guy who wont stop talking about how much he wants the part.  When I heard who was directing, I knew they were going to go for an actor who can actually….act.  I wasnt too happy about some of the other rumors either, as they just didnt look the part.  This Hemsworth guy looks like he has the sharp, strong look needed to play Thor. 

And soon after, Marvel confirmed that Loki had been cast as well, but more on that later.

Interestingly enough, Marvel has yet to actually confirm whether or not Hemsworth will be playing the God of Thunder.  I’m not worried though.  Considering Thor will also be appearing in the Avengers, and they will probably make sure the actor is on board for any more appearences with the character there is bound to be more paperwork and such.   Still, shouldn’t Loki be in all the same movies?  Loki has to be in all the sequels, and I really want to see the rogue have at least some role in the Avengers movie, but I guess they can use other villains.
