On How He Sees Thor In His Upcoming Solo Movie:

"I think he's certainly, in the beginning of this film, he's a rash, cocky warrior. Who's about to inherit the keys to the kingdom. And his father thinks he's not ready. The journey's of him learning some humility through the film... I think he's one of those people — his heart's in the right place. I think he's doing what he's doing for his family, and to protect his kingdom. He thinks it's the right way to do, it just happens to be a very aggressive way to do it, which probably isn't the right way. It's about some tempering, that raw emotion into the right direction."

On The Rumors That He And Anthony Hopkins Fell Out On Set:

"We had a good laugh about it. Everyone else knew about it before I did. And Anthony rang me up and just talked about the ridiculousness of it. It said a lot of funny things that article. The amount of blue screen it said we're doing, which we weren't. It talked about Anthony hating Santa Fe, he wasn't in Santa Fe. It talked about him hating Ken and not agreeing, Anthony said to me a number of times that Ken was one of the best directors he's ever worked with. For me that was like, Wow — I was blown away by Ken, but I don't have the track record or history that he has. It was one of the most enjoyable experiences for me. And for him as well, he kept saying, "how fun is this?" So yeah you've got to laugh at it. Of course there are moments when I go home and it's dark and I'm alone, and I think the most talented, nicest person on the planet hates me. You have to roll with that stuff."

On Joining The Rest Of The Avengers On Stage At Comic Con:

"That was crazy. I didn't even know that was going to happen until five minutes beforehand. I didn't know Scarlett of Robert or any of those guys would come. These are people I've admired and been inspired by for years. And I'm up there standing on the stage with them wondering what am I doing here. I'm really looking forward to learning from them."

EpicMan@ Thanks, she works out :) I figure it easier to just put people into a trance staring at the ass rather than debate them :)

Colossus701@ Welcome, its always fun joining in on the crazyness! I have the same view as you on the slight differences between movies and their comic counterpart. but i am worried i am drifting to the dark side on that one and being more critical its easy to do :)

Yo colossus701,

I don't know about you but it must have been fate that we sign up to this website both at the same time. I mean my post on the two Scott Pilgrim clips article nearly dupes your comment word for word. See for yourself, and I quote:

"Yo I'm new to this website".

"But figured because a lot of cool comic book movies are surfacing lately I decided to eventually sign up to this GODSEND of a website (its like being on cloud 9 when I read articles on here). Your all fantastic writers whoever writes the articles".

"I've been reading for like 5 years but never had the courage to sign up. Well now I have, hope it pays off".

So there ya have it. Do you think it was like...FATE or something to do with...errrr...DESTINY MAYBE?!? 0_0

Oh yeah Chris Hemsworth......RELEASE THE HOUNDS!!! MAKE HIM SUFFER FOR NOT WEARING THORS HELMET IN THAT VIDEO.

So,off-topic.I see that Preview Night for NEXT YEAR'S Comic-Con is ALREADY SOLD OUT,according to Collider! That AMAZES me...I have a feeling that when the rest of the passes go on sale.get'em ASAP,because if this is any indication, Comic-Con 2011 may sell out before the end of THIS year! "Remember..The main thing Is not To Panic..."

I bet that he wished he had his autograph book when he was on stage. OH well. He'll have plenty of time for autographs when the film comes about.

Welcome to Colossus701 & Mr. Burns! Enjoy the craziness over here, its a great time!

I can't believe how much Hemsworth bulked up for this part. The pic of him trying to free Mjolnir just proved how wrong I was to worry about his physique for this role. Can't wait for lightning to strike May 6th!!!!
