I really enjoyed Thor, but even those who can';t find much wrong with the movie have to admit that it felt a little on the short side and rushed at the end. This happens to many blockbusters, with studios afraid to take a chance on what they feel is too long a running time. And as a result a lot of great stuff ends up on the cutting room floor. Well, thankfully we will get to witness these scenes when Thor makes it's way to DVD..



"On the DVD you'll see many deleted scenes,

"On the way to this particular cut, in pursuit of what we felt was the perfect balance for this first time out with Thor, we had to not so much sacrifice — because this felt like the right thing to get to, but with certain areas of the story, things like the Asgardian parents, Odin and Frigga, played by the beautiful Rene Russo, there's some beautiful scenes in there that I think people will enjoy."

"And certainly Thor and Loki interacting in different ways that just fill in a little bit of a back story, that was part of our rehearsal and research.I think it's going to be an interesting bunch of material."

"I guess it's got to be 20 minutes worth, I think. It's a significant amount, actually."


Thor hits May 6th. I assume you won't need any encouragement to go see it?:)
