I'm digging em. I originally thought I would hate the Captain America outfit but the more I look at it the more "practical" it becomes. Its really not feasible to run around WWII Europe in bright ass spandex.

As for the Thor...I really hope they keep Loki's helmet.

Not many superhero costumes are feasible. That's why we read/watch these things...because they're not reality.

Personally, I'm still pissed he doesn't have the little wings on his head. It's like Batman without his pointy bat ears.

I really like both of them. I remain cautiously optimistic for these films.

Loki's not really a brawler, though. His entire point is getting other people to do the fighting for him while he sneaks around in the background appreciating his own ingenuity.

Isn't this more like just public concept art than actual movie posters?

When you said there were official posters out, I kind of figured you meant the ones where you have the stylized title, all the production credits, and rape-ass plastered over the movie theatres.

My confusion aside, these are some very nice images. I don't understand why some people harp on the look of the armor that the Asgardians are wearing. I mean, no, it doesn't look like the traditional armor you'd expect from period tales, but then you have to take into account the fact that this is armor that GODS wear. It's magical. It's beautiful. It's meant to be exotic and alien and the kind of thing that would shock and awe hut-dwelling berserkers.

And YES, I also hope they keep Loki's helmet. His helmet is magnificently pretentious.

TK when you are not the harbinger of doom you make my day with stuff like this!

Not used to seeing Cap with a gun. But hey, it's the 90s, everything is extreme now.

lovely paintings
should make Marvel a buck or two and some ebayers a further buck or two

There's no way Branagh + Money is going to turn out anything other than the pretty once we get the final moving images on Thor, I'm thinking of Hamlet

I really like them both, except Captain America's penis head. That thing won't look good on anyone but a cartoon.

Loki's not really a brawler, though. His entire point is getting other people to do the fighting for him while he sneaks around in the background appreciating his own ingenuity.

That's what I was thinking. I've read a lot of Thor comics and I'm struggling to think of a single time he and Loki ever stood toe-to-toe and hit each other with everything they had. That's just not how Loki rolls.

Personally I'm glad to see Captain America with a gun. So many superheroes have their no-killing rules, but Cap is a fucking soldier. He's not dumb enough to think he could fight his way through the Nazi war machine without capping a few guys.

I think Cap's a wanker, just like I've always thought.

Oh, you mean what do I think of the posters. They look pretty cool, and they do capture what I suspect is going to be the style of both films. So they have that going for them.

Magic Helmet?

He has penis head, people!

I really like them both, except Captain America's penis head.

This makes me laugh like an idiot, figgy, because when I was a teenager (in the Dark Ages), my hippy friends and I were forever being hassled by two rednecks who we nicknamed "Phallic Freddie" and (you guessed it) "Penis Head". Freddie had a really dirty Afro and (according to me) crabs, while the other guy looked like... well, like Captain America up there. And not in a good way. Thanks for the nostalgic yuks.
