Spoiler warning! When Malekith the Accursed (Christopher Eccleston) and his army of Dark Elves invade Asgard, Thor and Loki's mother Frigga (Rene Russo) is seen trying to hide the earthling, Jane Foster (Natalie Portman). Malekith locates Frigga with Jane (actually a hologram). Frigga pulls out a blade and squares off against Malekith. Algrim/Kurse (Adewale Akinnouye-Agbaje) comes up behind Frigga and stabs her. After that, a funeral is held for Odin's departed wife, which is attended by all of Asgard and Jane. Below, are storyboards depicting that funeral scene.

Think that I was just so happy it wasn't Ironman 3 on first viewing that I liked the film. On second viewing its clear the film was ruined in post.

You know who should've been the one to bite it? Loki. End him so it adds a wow factor to Thor and his supporting characters. Then, he can carry that wait into AoU and be a dark brooding thunder god.

You should really say "stabs her with a knife" or some with think Kurse stabbed her with something "else" from behind...oh, forget it, that's just my mind that thought that ;P

@Pasto - use your brain, they did that in Thor; The Dark World. Thor's mother died and he believes his brother died also. Thor 3 will no doubt be about Thor taking back his kingdom while fighting against Surtur - leading to the death of Thor with Loki having a change of heart. Its a redemption story, always has been.

@Marvelicious -

Debut film - Official name - type of gem/stone revealed

Thor; The Dark World - Aether = Power gem
Tesseract = Space gem
Avengers - Mind Gem
Guardians Of The Galaxy - Time Gem
Ant-Man - Reality Gem
Doctor Strange - Soul Gem

The Infinity Gauntlet is currently on Asgard.

Saved you the hassle of watching the film series + In all likelihood they'll have all the Avengers die in Avengers 3 and be resurrected via the Time Gem.

Great addition with the funeral scene from Game of Thrones nail! Such a hilarious scene.

^ Yeah, love how the old dude just walks away, doesn't even look at the arrow hit...LMAO...

It's funny, a buddy I know was watching that scene and was like "What would happen in viking times if the archer missed?" And bam, Edmure proceeds to miss 2 or 3 times.

Game of Thrones is so meta like that: nothing happens like it "should" in typical fantasy worlds, and it pulls it off perfectly.

But yeah, Blackfish's reaction was priceless. Looks at the wind, fires the arrow, and basically drops the mic and walks away! Great stuff haha.

ALL HAIL FRIGGA < 3

Frigga's death scene was definitely tragic...but it could've been SO much more emotional and devastating for the audience if she wasn't thrown aside as basically a glorified cameo in the first Thor and we got to know her better. They realized and fixed that mistake in TDW, but for me it was a too little, too late.

As for the identity of the Winter Soldier, I don't think Marvel is treating it like a surprise reveal for the non-fanboys. It's going to be a surprise for Cap. I think they knew that all comic readers would immediately know who it is, and the general audience would inevitably find out anyway. For me, that's a better strategy than pretending that Khan isn't in Star Trek Into Darkness when EVERYONE knew he was.

Good stuff, Nail! Thanks.
Storyboard made with Col-erase... interesting!

This film for me was 3/5.

@kevberg, I would say that the efforts to hide his identity in the movie is so that it's even more shocking for Cap when he finally finds out, rather than the audience. Is it a nice side-effect that his identity is hidden from the general audience? Absolutely, but I don't blame Marvel for not really caring.

I've heard comic readers describe the situation as knowing that Bruce Wayne is Batman. It's practically a given. I'm not sure I would go that far, personally. But it IS kind of obvious in retrospect. Or for those who have no idea, I'm worried that a large number of fans will watch the reveal, and then go "Who's Bucky?"

He really didn't make all that much of an impression in the first Captain America movie, so I would be SHOCKED if TWS doesn't have some type of flashback scene or something to remind everyone of who Bucky was. And if they do that, it makes it even more ridiculous to keep the Winter Soldier's identity a secret. Just my 2 cents.

Clive Russell, who plays Blackfish in that GOT clip, was also in Thor: TDW as Tyr.

Yea TWS seems to be one of the Phase 2 films Marcel actually cares about. The 2 hr 16 min runtime proves they want a lot of action, story and character development. I think Marvel always wanted TWS and GOTG to be their two best Phase 2 films. IM3 and TDW were like 1 hr and a half action feats with little character development. TWS is setting up Avengers 2 and GOTG is setting up Marvel Cosmic so these two films need to be long in length and need to be great which Marvel seems to have put the work into to achieve those goals.

Glad that storyboard was not used for that scene. Frigga went out fighting which is bad ass so i'm glad that scene was in the film.

The movie was "good" the scene was amazing.

Anyone that complains about jokes in super hero films is ridiculous.
You act like it's some campy shlock like Fantastic 4 or Green Lantern.
A joke right after this scene, which was a great scene btw, is to relieve the tension so that you know you're not watching some fantasy drama(Man of Steel)
With that said, this movie was awesome and did so much right. It knew what it was and was proud of it. Probably the 2nd best MCU film for me. 1st obviously being Avengers.

Thor 2 should have been longer and should have had like a 3 minute scene to develop the Enchantress so we can have more of her in the 3rd film without having to explain who she is through a bunch of exposition and shit.
