More Movie Costumes

More images coming out from upcoming Marvel movies. Just wait - the next week will be ridiculous for this kind of stuff.

This time, it is Anthony Hopkins as Odin, from Thor (via The Beat).



I know they've "re-worked" some of the costuming on this one, but I tend to agree with the other bloggers and comments that it all looks a little too plastic-y. How can the armor in 300 be so right, but this feel so wrong? (Totally disregard that these are completely different historical periods. These are not the droids you are looking for...) However, I dig the hair and the beard.

Thor - First Image

While we are all getting amped up about the Iron Man 2 release in a couple days, the first image of Chris Hemsworth as Thor was released late last week. The Thor movie is scheduled for release about this time next year, and with the summer movie season pretty much starting this weekend, it's certainly time to start rolling out any promos that are ready. Also better see Thor-something in San Diego. It's about 2.5 months out now, and all these posts are getting me psyched!

Oh yeah, check out Thor:



He appears to have that Northern European thing going on, so that's a good start. I'll have to consult with some other geeks on what Thor stories to read before the movie next year; I'll admit I wasn't a big Marvel girl, so I'm behind on the whole God of War thing. Feel free to suggest TPs in comments.
